Vitamin D, acute respiratory infections, and Covid-19: the curse of small-size randomised trials. A critical review with meta-analysis of randomised trials

2024-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Randomised trials conducted before 2021 indicated that vitamin D supplementation (VDS) was able to prevent severe COVID-19 and acute respiratory infections (ARI). However, these health benefits were not confirmed by larger randomised trials published after 2021. <h4>Objective</h4> To examine the characteristics of randomised trials on VDS to COVID-19 patients and admission to intensive care uni...
