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

Introduction/Aim of the study: Vitamin D participates in the regulation of calcium and phosphate metabolism and exerts pleiotropic effects that encompass numerous physiological processes. The study aimed to assess vitamin D status in Polish military personnel and to analyze its association with supplementation, the frequency of consumption of selected products that are sources of vitamin D, demographic and anthropometric factors, seasonality, and the

methodsThe study included 331 soldiers aged 21-65 years, 88.2% of whom were men. 25(OH)D levels were determined by electrochemiluminescence, the frequency of product consumption was assessed using the FFQ questionnaire, and GC rs2282679 genotyping was performed by real-time PCR using TaqMan probes. Suboptimal vitamin D status was defined as a concentration of 25(OH)D < 30 ng/mL.

resultsThe concentration of 25(OH)D < 30 ng/mL was determined in 50.2% of the subjects. Multivariable analysis showed the following independent factors associated with the suboptimal status of vitamin D: blood collection in the spring, less frequent supplementation and the

conclusionsThe suboptimal vitamin D status occurred in about half of the examined soldiers. The results indicated the importance of regular supplementation, seasonality and the
