Vitamin D Status in People Living with HIV: Assessment of 25(OH)D Levels and Associated Factors-A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Metabolites, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundVitamin D deficiency (VDD) is highly prevalent among people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), with reported rates of insufficiency and deficiency substantially higher than in many general-population cohorts. This study aims to assess the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and to investigate the risk factors contributing to its occurrence among people living with HIV who are receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) and are registered at the Craiova Regional Center (CRC).
methodsA retrospective study was conducted from May 2024 to August 2024, including individuals with HIV aged 18 years and older who were registered at the CRC.
resultsA total of 138 patients were included in the study. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL) and vitamin D insufficiency (20-29.9 ng/mL) was 36.2% and 33.3%, respectively, with an average vitamin D level of 26.4 ± 9.9 ng/mL. Vitamin D deficiency was associated with obesity (
conclusionsThese findings indicate that monitoring vitamin D levels could be particularly relevant for patients with HIV with higher-risk profiles. However, our study included a relatively small number of participants, so further research in larger cohorts is needed to better understand these patterns.
