Vitamin D Status and Dyslipidaemia Among Obese Individuals in Ibadan, Nigeria: A Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies, 2025. 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
Objective: Obesity is a major global health concern characterized by an accumulation of excessive body fat, dyslipidaemia and low vitamin D levels. This study aimed to assess the relationship between dyslipidaemia and vitamin D status in obese individuals and the risk of atherogenesis. Methodology: In this cross-sectional study, 140 participants aged 18 to 65 years, were categorized into 4 equal groups of 35 each, based on their body mass index BMI. Baseline and demographic data were obtained using a semi-structured questionnaire. The serum levels of vitamin D, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c) were measured using standard methods. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) and atherogenic index in plasma (AIP) were calculated. Results: The vitamin D status was sufficient in all groups but its concentrations decline significantly as BMI increases. Serum TC, TG, LDL-c concentration significantly increases as BMI increases, but HDL-c concentration decreases. The AIP increases as BMI increases. Conclusion: The study provided possible evidence to support the association between dyslipidaemia and inadequate vitamin D status in this cohort of adults with obesity in Ibadan, Nigeria.
