Relationship Between Vitamin D Status and Brain Perfusion in Neuropsychiatric Lupus.
Article in Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: Neuropsychiatric manifestation of lupus (NPSLE) is related with vitamin D (vit-D) deficiency which is possibly amenable to supplementation. This study was done to explore link of serum vit-D level and clinical mini-mental state examination (MMSE) with brain perfusion SPECT (BS) in patients with NPSLE. Methods: Patients who underwent BS with the diagnosis of NPSLE and had serum levels of vit-D and MMSE within a span of 1 month were retrospectively included. The BS DICOM data were used to generate 3D surface images of brain for visual identification of regional hypoperfusion, and the Results: A total 19 patients with means ± SD age of 28.4 ± 9.2 years, having mean levels of serum vit-D of 18.7 ± 9.8 ng/ml and mean MMSE scores 24.2 ± 1.6, had undergone BS. The eZIS-derived Conclusions: Our results may support the utility of vit-D supplementation in NPSLE and applicability of BS as a clinical adjunct for monitoring response to vit-D supplementation.
