1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe association between serum vitamin D levels and bone mineral density (BMD) varies by race and gender. This study aimed to evaluate this relationship between serum vitamin D levels and BMD, and changes of BMD over time in Korean women. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe analyzed data from 586 generally healthy Korean women aged 29-79 who underwent health check-ups at Seoul National University Gangnam Center between 2010 and 2011 (baseline measurement) and 2015-2016 (follow-up). Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OH-D) level measurements were conducted. We assessed the association between serum 25OH-D levels and BMD, as well as changes in BMD over time.

resultsThe mean age of participants was 51.3 ± 7.9 years, with a mean follow-up interval of 4.6 ± 0.7 years, and mean serum 25OH-D level of 20.6 ± 8.5 ng/ml. Baseline serum 25OH-D levels did not correlate with BMD values at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, or total femur, nor with changes in BMD over time. A significant negative association was found between perimenopausal status and BMD changes at all sites, and between premenopausal status and lumbar bone mass, compared to postmenopausal status in the 25OH-D < 20 ng/ml group. This association was not observed in women with higher serum 25OH-D levels.

conclusionsSerum 25OH-D levels did not correlate with BMD levels or changes in BMD overall. However, in late reproductive-aged and perimenopausal women with serum 25OH-D insufficiency, there was a significant association with accelerated bone loss.
