Abstract in brief

  • The guideline was developed by a Task Force of experts to help clinicians evaluate, treat, and prevent vitamin D deficiency, especially in those at risk, with recommendations based on systematic evidence review.
  • Due to the high prevalence of deficiency across all ages and limited food sources, the Task Force recommends vitamin D supplementation tailored to age and clinical circumstances, along with measuring serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels for diagnosis.
  • Currently, vitamin D testing is advised primarily for at-risk patients, and treatment with vitamin D2 or D3 is recommended for those diagnosed with deficiency; screening of low-risk individuals or using vitamin D for non-calcemic cardiovascular benefits is not supported by sufficient evidence.]

ビタミンDの1日推奨摂取量（RDI）については、年齢や妊娠の有無などによって異なる多くのガイドラインが存在する(後ほど紹介)。 2011年に内分泌学会が発表したガイドラインは、主に観察研究に基づき、低ビタミンD状態の人のケアに重点を置いていた (https://t.co/COyKiTWYmJ)。

@blindclassic_ In der Publikation zb. (https://t.co/WLIhRay9EO). Die 600-800 sind wahrscheinlich nur das Minimum um einen Mangel auszugleichen. Die D3-Tabletten die man zb. beim Arzt bekommt, haben meist auch nur 1k IE drin, was für jmd ohne Mangel fast nichts ist.
