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

backgroundBody composition plays a crucial role in metabolic health, aging, and the development of various diseases. Vitamin D has been implicated in the regulation of muscle and adipose tissue function, but its relationship with body composition remains unclear.

objectivesThis study aimed to investigate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentration, its subspecies, and body composition parameters and related phenotypes in Korean adults aged ≥20 years.

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 2612 eligible participants from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2022-2023, and data on body composition parameters and serum 25(OH)D levels were analyzed. Serum 25(OH)D levels and subspecies were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Body composition factors included anthropometric indices, muscle strength, and fat and muscle mass, which were assessed using bioelectrical impedance analysis.

resultsAfter multivariable adjustment, serum concentrations of total 25(OH)D and 25(OH)D
