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

backgroundRecent genetic association studies showed that there are contradictory results on the relationship between vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) risk in children. The purpose of this systematic review is to collect the currently available evidence to evaluate the relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and the risk of T1DM in children.

methodsSuch medical databases as Wanfang Data, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were extensively searched for relevant literatures published before June 2021 with the focus on the relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and the risk of T1DM in children. The risk of bias was evaluated as per the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale by 2 independent researchers. Meta-analysis was performed to quantify the relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and T1DM risk in children.

resultsThe results of this meta-analysis would be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication.

conclusionThe relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and T1DM risk in children is explored via this meta-analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was not required for this study. The systematic review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal, presented at conferences, and shared on social media platforms. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/Q8XA5.
