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

aimThis study investigated whether family composition and other household factors are associated with adherence to vitamin D supplementation during infancy.

methodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted between March 21 and April 30, 2023, among caregivers of infants aged 4 weeks to 12 months at the Ca' Granda Hospital, Milan, Italy. The survey investigated demographic data, health status, daily vitamin D

resultsA total of 241 caregivers completed the survey. Overall, 85% of infants received vitamin D supplements at least four times per week. Good adherence was more frequent in families with one child (91%) compared with those with two or more children (78%). In multivariable analysis, the presence of siblings was the only factor significantly associated with poor adherence (odds ratio 2.72, 95% confidence interval 1.25-5.92). No associations were found with caregiver education, infant age, chronic disease, intercurrent illness, or time spent outdoors.

conclusionIn this cohort, adherence to vitamin D prophylaxis was significantly lower in families with more than one child. Awareness of this association could inform counselling strategies and the design of interventions to sustain adherence.
