      Impact of vitamin D supplementation on the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 pneumonia patients: a single-center randomized controlled trial (2024)

      Results

      Two hundred ninety-four patients were recruited (147 per group). The two groups did not differ in pneumonia treatment duration to discharge (p = 0.788) or length of hospital stay (p = 0.614). The reduction in the pneumonia severity index between enrollment and discharge was more significant in the intervention group (p = 0.007); a significant decrease was also observed among patients who had C-reactive protein > 30 mg/L (p < 0.001). No adverse reactions were recorded.

      Conclusions

      Adding active vitamin D to standard treatment may benefit COVID-19 pneumonia patients who require supplemental oxygen or high-dose corticosteroid therapy or who have high C-reactive protein concentrations (> 30 mg/L) upon treatment initiation.
