Summary: This study evaluated the impact of polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor gene on the response to vitamin D supplementation through a systematic review and meta-analysis. The results suggest that the TaqI and FokI polymorphisms may play a role in modulating the response to vitamin D supplementation.

Summary: In depressed individuals, there is an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency, but current supplementation trials have paid little attention to common adverse health outcomes associated with low vitamin D levels. More well-designed trials are needed to explore the effects of vitamin D supplementation in late-life depression.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of vitamin D supplementation on children with allergic diseases. The results showed that overall, vitamin D supplementation did not significantly reduce the risk of asthma exacerbations in children. However, it may reduce the risk in children with low baseline serum vitamin D levels. Additionally, vitamin D supplementation was found to reduce the severity of atopic dermatitis and symptoms of allergic rhinitis in children.

Summary: This umbrella review investigated the quality and discrepancies of systematic reviews/meta-analyses on vitamin D supplementation for fracture risk reduction in adults. The results show that vitamin D combined with calcium can reduce the risk of hip and any fractures, potentially driven by findings from institutionalized individuals. However, there are discrepancies in results due to different trial inclusion, search periods, eligibility criteria, and methodologies used. Individual participant data meta-analyses and subgroup analysis are recommended to further explore determinants for a beneficial response to supplementation.

Summary: The systematic review aimed to investigate the influence of vitamin D supplementation on mental health in diabetic adults. The majority of studies confirmed the positive impact of vitamin D supplementation on mental health outcomes, particularly in depression and anxiety. However, variations in dosage regimens and intervention periods limited the generalizability of the findings.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis found that vitamin D supplementation can significantly improve the severity of IBS symptoms, but the improvement in quality of life is not statistically significant. However, limitations such as small sample sizes, a relatively young study population, limited ethnicities, and varied vitamin D dosing strategies across the studies should be noted.

Summary: This study found that there is an association between low vitamin D levels and the risk of post-stroke depression (PSD). Female gender, hyperlipidemia, and high NIHSS scores were also identified as potential risk factors for PSD.
