Vitamin D Deficiency is Associated With Dengue Severity in Pediatric Cases, Eastern India.
Article in Journal of tropical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Vitamin D is an important modulator of host immune response during immunity development in context to several diseases in children. This study included 280 pediatric dengue cases, which were further stratified as dengue fever (DF), dengue with warning signs (DWS), and severe dengue (SD), wherein naturally circulating vitamin D metabolite, 25(OH)D was assessed, followed by statistical analysis for elucidating the role of serum 25(OH)D in dengue severity. qRT-PCR based serotyping showed that dengue virus (DENV)-2 was the major circulating DENV serotype in the patients. Among DENV cases, 92 (32.86%), 108 (38.57%), and 80 (28.57%) were diagnosed with DF, DWS, and SD, respectively. Among SD patients, serum 25(OH)D deficiency and insufficiency were observed in 37 (46.25%) and 43 (53.75%) patients, respectively, and found to be significantly associated with SD (
