Vitamin D recommendations in clinical guidelines:
A systematic review, quality evaluation and analysis of potential predictors - Sept 2021

Int J Clin Pract. 2021 Sep 6;e14805. doi: 10.1111/ijcp.14805
D Fraile Navarro 1 2 3, A López-García-Franco 1 2, E Niño de Guzmán 4, M Rabassa 4, R Zamanillo Campos 5 6 7, H Pardo-Hernandez 8 9, I Ricci-Cabello 5 7 9, C Canelo-Aybar 10 11, J F Meneses-Echavez 12 13, J J Yepes-Nuñez 14 15, J Kuindersma 16, I Gich-Saladich 4 9 17, P Alonso-Coello 4 9

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 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, a quality appraisal using AGREE II scores (Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation) and a bivariate analysis evaluating the association between direction and strength of recommendations, AGREE II domains' scores and pre-specified characteristics.

Results: We included 34 guidelines,

  • 44.1% recommended,
  • 26.5% suggested, and
  • 29.4% did not recommend vitamin D supplementation.

Guidelines that scored higher for "editorial independence" and "overall quality score" were less likely to recommend or suggest vitamin D supplementation (median 68.8 vs. 35.4; p=0.001), and median 58.3 vs. 37.5; p=0.02). Guidance produced by government organizations and those that reported source of funding were associated with higher AGREE II scores. Unclear role of source of funding was associated with recommending or suggesting vitamin D supplementation (p=0.034). Editorial independence was an independent predictor for recommending or suggesting vitamin D supplementation (OR 1.09; CI95% 1.02 to 1.16; p=0.006).

Conclusions: Policymakers, clinicians and patients should be aware that lower quality guidelines, and those reporting conflicts of interest are more likely to promote vitamin D supplementation. Guideline organizations should improve the quality of their recommendations' development and the management of conflicts of interest. Users and editors should be aware of these findings when using and appraising guidelines.
