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.

Abstract

No clinical trial has yet assessed the effect of vitamin D on patients experiencing ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). In this multicentre, randomised (2:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 93 patients with anterior STEMI were randomised to calcifediol or placebo, for 12 months. The primary endpoint was left ventricular remodelling, defined as a 15% increase in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV) on magnetic resonance imaging. Sixty-five patients were allocated to calcifediol and 28 to placebo. Calcidiol levels increased in the intervention group (20.0[8.4, 36.5] vs. 2.0[− 0.3, 4.5] ng/mL, p < 0.001). No differences were observed in the incidence of left ventricular remodelling (26.2% vs. 21.4%; p = 0.824) and in these secondary end points: increment in end-diastolic volume (6.0[− 6.5, 21.6] vs. 6.1[− 8.1, 23.8] mL; p = 0.773), end-systolic volume (− 6.9[− 15.9, 4.5] vs. 1.3[− 20.9, 17.2] mL; p = 0.908), ejection fraction (5.1[2.1, 10.0] vs. 7.7[− 0.9, 11.0]%; p = 0.992), and in plasma levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, galectin-3, ST2, growth differentiation factor-15, fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1. Similar results were observed in patients with baseline FGF23 above the median, in those with calcidiol < 30 ng/mL, and in the subgroup with ejection fraction ≤ 40%. In conclusion, calcifediol does not improve left ventricular remodelling or affect biomarkers related to heart failure and inflammation following a STEMI.Trial registration: NCT02548364. https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02548364?term=VITDAMI%20Vitamin%20D%20in%20acute%20myocardial%20infarction&rank=1 .
