The vitamin D status in a Chinese osteogenesis imperfecta population and its correlation with bone metabolic markers and bone density.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: Studies on the baseline vitamin D levels in osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) patients before medication are scarce. This study assessed the vitamin D status of a population with OI at both the overall level and within different age groups. It correlated baseline 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels with other bone-related factors, biochemical markers, and bone density. Patients and methods: We collected 25(OH)D levels from 95 OI patients in East China (59 under 18 years old and 36 over 18 years old). Postmenopausal women and men over 50 years old are excluded. Measurements included body indicators, biochemical markers, and bone mineral density (BMD) assessed by Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Data analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. Results: In the overall population, among those under 18 years old, and among those over 18 years old, 87.4, 83.1, and 94.4%, respectively, were vitamin D deficient (<30 ng/mL), while 47.4, 40.7, and 58.3% had vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL), respectively. In the overall population and among those under 18 years old, serum 25(OH)D levels were negatively correlated with age and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, and 25(OH)D levels (<10 ng/mL, 10-20 ng/mL, 20-30 ng/mL, >30 ng/mL) showed a negative correlation with BMI. In OI patients under 18 years old, serum 25(OH)D was negatively correlated with serum β-CTX levels. In adult male OI population, 25(OH)D levels were negatively correlated with OI severity (Type I, IV, III). No statistically significant correlation was found between 25(OH)D levels and BMD Z-scores. Conclusion: This study on OI in East China reveals significant vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency in baseline levels among pediatric, adolescent and adult OI patients. It assesses the correlation of 25(OH)D levels with various influencing factors, providing crucial insights into understanding the impact of OI on vitamin D status across different age groups and aiding in better clinical management of OI patients.
