Individual participant data (IPD)-level meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials to estimate the vitamin D dietary requirements in dark-skinned individuals resident at high latitude

Kevin D. Cashman et al.

Summary: There is an urgent need to develop vitamin D dietary recommendations for dark-skinned populations at high latitudes, as they require higher vitamin D intake to maintain serum concentrations. The study found that the required vitamin D intake for dark-skinned individuals to maintain certain serum levels is substantially higher than that for White individuals.

COVID-19 pandemic and vitamin D: rising trends in status and in daily amounts of vitamin D provided by supplements

Malachi J. McKenna et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on vitamin D levels and the dosage of new-to-market vitamin D supplements. Serum 25OHD levels increased and the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency decreased, while the prevalence of vitamin D excess increased. Therefore, a targeted approach to vitamin D supplementation based on government guidelines is recommended, with caution regarding the adverse effects of high-dose supplements on the market.

Low socioeconomic status predicts vitamin D status in a cross-section of Irish children

Helena Scully et al.

Summary: This study examined the vitamin D status of Irish children and found a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency, particularly in disadvantaged areas and among children aged over 12 years. Socioeconomic status, sex, and season were identified as important predictors of vitamin D deficiency.

Individual participant data (IPD)-level meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials with vitamin D-fortified foods to estimate Dietary Reference Values for vitamin D

Kevin D. Cashman et al.

Summary: IPD analysis shows that the vitamin D intake needed to maintain certain serum levels is higher than previously estimated through standard meta-regression analysis using aggregate data. The study provides further evidence that a food-based approach with a daily intake of 12 μg of vitamin D can prevent deficiency in the general population.
