Serum vitamin D concentration and anthropometric indicators of adiposity in adults without or with low dose statin users: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Journal of health, population, and nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundThis study sought to determine the accuracy of several anthropometric parameters in association with serum Vit. D concentrations and to compare the novel indices with the conventional ones.
methodsA total of 947 individuals referred to the cardiology clinic who have not used statin or take low-dose statin were evaluated through a cross-sectional study. Data on demographic information, anthropometric indices, and biochemical measurements were gathered using a checklist. Both the multivariable regression modeling and the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) were employed for the analysis.
resultsConsidering novel indices, BRI (Body Roundness Index) showed the most powerful correlation with serum Vit. D levels among both genders. Among conventional ancient indices, WC (Waist Circumference) had the strongest association in both men and women groups. Based on the confounding factors-adjusted model, the highest odds ratio (OR) for the presence of Vit. D deficiency belonged to WHtR (Waist to Height Ratio) in women (OR, 0.347 (0.171-0.704), P = 0.003). None of the indices predicted Vit. D deficiency significantly among men. A Vit. D concentration of 4.55 ng/ml was found as a cutoff based on the metabolic syndrome status.
conclusionThe most powerful association with serum Vit. D levels were detected for BRI in both genders among newly developed indices. In addition, WHtR predicted Vit. D deficiency independent of confounding factors among women.
