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
Although rare, vitamin D toxicity is a serious condition that commonly results from excessive self-medication. Clinical manifestations range from asymptomatic hypercalcemia to severe, life-threatening complications. We present the case of a previously healthy 3-year-old child who accidentally ingested 800,000 IU of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and remained asymptomatic. Management included intravenous hydration, oral prednisolone, and strict dietary calcium restriction, alongside regular monitoring of serum calcium and vitamin D levels. The patient was discharged after 11 days and showed normalized laboratory parameters during a 3-month follow-up. This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis, immediate cessation of vitamin D intake, and conservative medical management in preventing complications. It also highlights the critical need for public education regarding the safe use of dietary supplements, particularly in pediatric populations.
