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

Background: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) and vitamin D deficiency are common comorbidities in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD), but the relationship with lifestyle factors, and psychosocial health remains poorly understood. Methods: This single-center cross-sectional study included 662 ACHD patients (mean age: 39.3 years; 47% female) and analyzed their clinical, psychosocial, and lifestyle data, including laboratory parameters, quality of life (QoL), and mental health metrics. Predictors of sHPT and vitamin D deficiency were evaluated using multivariate regression models. Findings: sHPT was observed in 13% and vitamin D deficiency in 43.4% of patients. In the multivariate analysis, infrequent alcohol consumption ( Conclusion: This study highlights the multifactorial etiology of sHPT and vitamin D deficiency in ACHD, underscoring the roles of disease severity, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors. sHPT appears to be closely associated with advanced cardiac disease and heart failure and may serve as a marker of increased disease burden. Accordingly, assessment of sHPT may contribute to a more comprehensive risk stratification in ACHD. Further studies are needed to determine whether targeted interventions improve clinical outcomes.
