Vitamin D recommendations in clinical guidelines: A systematic review, quality evaluation and analysis of potential predictors

Abstract: Background: Vitamin D has been widely promoted for bone health through supplementation and fortification of the general adult population. However, there is growing evidence that does not support these strategies. Our aim is to review the quality and recommendations on vitamin D nutritional and clinical practice guidelines and to explore predictive factors for their direction and strength. Methods:We searched three databases and two guideline repositories from 2010 onwards. We performed a descriptive analysis, … Show more

“…As a potential limitation, the financial and logistic support by an industry sponsor (Wörwag Pharma) must be acknowledged. Despite no involvement of the sponsor in the scientific group discussions and consensus reaching processes, we cannot totally exclude some sort of funding bias [ 17 , 18 ]. Moreover, this consensus document was not informed by an a priori structured and pre-registered systematic review of the evidence.…”

“…Further hydroxylation of 25(OH)D in the kidneys or certain extra-renal tissues results in the formation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D, also called calcitriol), which exerts endocrine, autocrine, and paracrine effects as a steroid hormone [ 10 ]. Heterogeneous recommendations, regarding several issues in the practical management of vitamin D deficiency, represent a challenge for clinicians and health authorities on how to deal with this public health problem [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. In this context, systematic evaluations of current vitamin D guidelines did, not only, observe a great heterogeneity of the recommendations, but it also reported a low quality score regarding the methodological processes for the majority of these vitamin D guidelines [ 17 , 18 ].…”

“…As previously indicated, sunlight exposure remains the major source (about 80%) of vitamin D for most children and adults [ 10 , 11 , 12 ], while the remaining 20% is provided by dietary intake [ 13 , 14 ]. However, we must consider that, on the one hand, vitamin D synthesis decreases with increasing distance from the equator and, on the other, there is often resistance to UV exposure because of risk of skin cancers, though the recommended amount of UV exposure is unlikely to be harmful for most people [ 15 , 16 ].…”
