“…In terms of effects on BP, some RCTs have reported significant improvements in brachial BP after short-term supplementation of VitD among participants encompassing a variety of clinical characteristics, including patients with hypercalcaemia [53] or impaired glucose tolerance [54], patients with primary hyperparathyroidism [55], patients with T2DM [56,57,58], patients with elevated BP and VitD deficiency [59] and women with VitD deficiency [60]. However, the majority of RCTs have been ineffective in improving brachial BP in a range of populations as shown in Table 1[61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79]. Indeed, a recent individual-level meta-analysis of RCTs concluded that VitD was ineffective in lowering BP [80].…”
