The Role of Vitamin D in Parkinson's Disease: Evidence from Serum Concentrations, Supplementation, and
Review in NeuroSci, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
BACKGROUND/
aimVitamin D (VitD) has been implicated in neuroprotection, yet its role in Parkinson's disease (PD) remains unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between VitD status, supplementation, and vitamin D receptor ( METHODOLOGY: Following PRISMA guidelines, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar through August 2025 for observational studies, clinical trials, and genetic association studies. Primary outcomes included serum VitD levels in PD versus healthy controls (HCs), prevalence of VitD insufficiency/deficiency, and effects of VitD supplementation on motor symptoms. Secondary outcomes assessed associations between
resultsSixty-three studies (
conclusionsVitD deficiency is common in PD and may influence disease risk and motor function. Current evidence indicates limited benefit of supplementation for motor outcomes, and genetic associations remain inconsistent.
