Vitamin D and high blood pressure: causal association or epiphenomenon?

European journal of epidemiology - 1 Jan 2014

Kunutsor Setor K, Burgess Stephen, Munroe Patricia B, Khan Hassan

Abstract excerpt

High plasma levels of vitamin D are associated with a reduced risk of high blood pressure, but whether this association is causal remains to be ascertained. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials, to examine the effect of vitamin D supplementation on both systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and supplemented these results with a Mendelian randomization analysis to...
