Non-linear Mendelian randomization analyses support a role for vitamin D deficiency in cardiovascular disease risk

Ang Zhou et al.

Summary: The study found a non-linear association between genetically predicted serum 25(OH)D concentration and CVD risk, with CVD risk initially decreasing steeply with increasing concentrations and leveling off at around 50 nmol/L. Correction of serum 25(OH)D level below 50 nmol/L was predicted to result in a 4.4% reduction in CVD incidence.

A Narrative Review of the Evidence for Variations in Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentration Thresholds for Optimal Health

Summary: Vitamin D-3 has important health benefits, but there is a lack of awareness among healthcare professionals and the general public, leading to suboptimal levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D in most of the world's population. High-quality studies show that vitamin D may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, etc., but randomized controlled trials in vitamin D research have flaws.

High-density lipoprotein cholesterol and cardiovascular mortality: a prospective cohort study among 15.8 million adults

Sang-Wook Yi et al.

Summary: This study found a U-shaped relationship between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality regardless of sex, age, and CVD subtype. The optimal range of HDL-C differs by age, and both low and high levels of HDL-C were associated with increased mortality from CVD, especially sudden cardiac death, heart failure, and intracerebral haemorrhage.

Angiogenin Levels and Their Association with Cardiometabolic Indices Following Vitamin D Status Correction in Saudi Adults

Ghadeer M. Aldawsari et al.

Summary: Angiogenin (ANG) is a small protein associated with blood vessel formation, and its abnormal levels in the blood have been linked to various diseases. This study investigated the relationship between circulating levels of ANG, vitamin D, and lipids. The researchers found that vitamin D supplementation may have a modest effect on ANG levels, and there was an interesting association between ANG and apolipoprotein E, which should be further studied due to its connection with neurodegenerative disorders.

Interrelationship between Vitamin D and Calcium in Obesity and Its Comorbid Conditions

Iskandar Azmy Harahap et al.

Summary: Obesity is associated with vitamin D deficiency and low calcium status. Dietary supplementation of vitamin D and calcium has been extensively studied in animal experiments and human studies, but the physiological mechanisms underlying their effects on obesity and metabolic diseases remain unclear. The regulation of insulin, lipids, hormones, cells, and inflammation by the vitamin D-calcium axis plays a role in obesity and its comorbidities. However, the impact of simultaneous vitamin D and calcium supplementation on weight loss and fat reduction is inconsistent.

Genetic Determinants of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations and Their Relevance to Public Health

Elina Hypponen et al.

Summary: Twin studies have shown that genetic factors contribute significantly to the variability in 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations. Genome-wide association studies have identified multiple independent variants associated with serum 25(OH)D levels, providing insights into the metabolic pathway. By constructing a genetic score based on these variants, it has been shown that genetic differences in 25(OH)D concentrations persist across seasons and have a notable impact on maintaining adequate levels.

Comparing the Evidence from Observational Studies and Randomized Controlled Trials for Nonskeletal Health Effects of Vitamin D

William B. Grant et al.

Summary: Observational studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) show discrepancies in the effects of vitamin D on health outcomes. Careful interpretation is needed due to biases and confounding in observational studies, as well as limitations in RCT designs. Before further RCTs are considered, Hill's criteria and results from observational studies can be used to examine the relevance of vitamin D for health outcomes.

Role of Vitamin D in the Metabolic Syndrome

Lucia Melguizo-Rodriguez et al.

Summary: The prevalence of hypovitaminosis D has been increasing in developed countries due to lifestyle changes and unhealthy habits. Scientific evidence shows an inverse relationship between vitamin D deficiency and metabolic syndrome (MetS), with supplementation helping improve outcomes in individuals with MetS. Maintaining optimal vitamin D concentrations is proposed as a preventive strategy against MetS.

Association of changes in lipid levels with changes in vitamin D levels in a real-world setting

Yonghong Li et al.

Summary: In clinical trials, vitamin D supplementation has been shown to reduce levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, but not HDL cholesterol. In a real-world setting, changes in vitamin D levels were significantly associated with changes in lipid levels, with increases in vitamin D correlating with decreases in TC, LDL-C, and TG levels.

Summary: Recent studies on the role of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in cardiovascular disease have found a complex U-shaped relationship between HDL levels and cardiovascular mortality risk. Additionally, genetic studies, Mendelian randomization approaches, and clinical trials have challenged the traditional notion of a causal link between HDL-C levels and cardiovascular protection.

Summary: In this study, treatment with vitamin D in patients with vitamin D deficiency and no prior history of myocardial infarction significantly reduced the risk of myocardial infarction and all-cause mortality. Maintaining vitamin D levels above 30 ng/mL was associated with a more significant reduction in the risk of myocardial infarction.

Summary: The study analyzed the impact of vitamin D supplementation on apolipoproteins A1 and B100 levels in adults, finding no significant effect on Apo A1 and Apo B100 levels overall. However, daily vitamin D supplementation and <= 12 weeks of supplementation showed potential benefits in increasing Apo A1 levels.

Summary: For patients with Vitamin D deficiency and no prior history of myocardial infarction, treatment to reach 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels above 20 ng/mL and 30 ng/mL is associated with significantly lower risk of all-cause mortality. The lower risk of myocardial infarction is only observed in individuals maintaining 25-OH levels above or equal to 30 ng/mL.
