Influence of age on effects of endogenous 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D on calcium absorption in normal women.
Trial report in Calcified tissue international, 1994. 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
Recent reports of increases in serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH2)D] concentration with aging despite no changes or decreases in calcium absorption suggest that elderly women have intestinal resistance to vitamin D action. Thus, in 15 young adult (30 +/- 1 year) and 15 elderly (74 +/- 1 year) women (mean +/- SE), we assessed the responsiveness of intestinal calcium absorption to increases in circulating 1,25(OH)2D induced by 4 days of an experimental diet (150 mg calcium and 1600 mg phosphorus daily). True fractional calcium absorption (FCA) (44Ca mixed with food and 42Ca given intravenously, then their ratio in urine measured by mass spectrometry) was determined. Baseline serum intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration was higher in the older women (P = 0.01) whereas serum 1,25(OH)2D concentration and true FCA were similar. In both groups, serum 1,25(OH)2D concentrations increased (P < 0.002) on the experimental diet. After 4 days on the diet, serum 1,25(OH)2D increased over baseline by 30.5 and 35.6% and, despite these increases, true FCA was 40 +/- 3 versus 40 +/- 4%/24 hours (NS between groups) in the young and elderly women, respectively. These data suggest that either elderly women have normal intestinal responsiveness to vitamin D or that the resistance to it is too mild to be detected by these methods.
