The Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Ankle-brachial Index in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Article in Iranian journal of nursing and midwifery research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Vitamin D deficiency in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is recognized as a risk factor for developing vascular complications and poor disease control. This study aimed to determine the effect of vitamin D supplementation on ankle-brachial index (ABI) in patients with T2D. Materials and Methods: This two-group clinical trial was conducted among 56 patients with T2D. Participants were recruited through sampling conducted in the diabetes clinic of Velayat Hospital in Qazvin, Iran. They were allocated to the intervention and control groups using a simple blocked randomization method. The intervention group received an oral dose of 1000 IU/day of vitamin D. Data were collected using a checklist that included demographic information, laboratory measurements, and ABI. Results: After the intervention, the score in the intervention group (ABI < 0.9: t Conclusions: The results of this study revealed that a daily intake of 1000 IU of vitamin D significantly improved the ABI, serum concentration of vitamin D, FBG, and HbA1c in patients with T2D. These findings suggest that vitamin D supplementation may be considered an effective approach for preventing arterial diseases and improving blood sugar control.
