95 new vitamin D INTERVENTION trials added during 2012

World Health Organization - International Clinical Trials New Registrations

There will be a delay of many years till the results are published.

Expect that many of the trials will not show a benefit for one or more of the following reasons

1. Not enough vitamin D3 was used in the trial - (much more is typically needed for treatment than for prevention)
2. Too long of time between doses ( > 3 month between doses)
3. Trial period too short, or failed to give loading dose. Especially important in groups at high risk of being vitamin D deficient
4. Vitamin D2 was used, rather than D3
5. Cofactor was needed - vitamin D monotheraphy is not always a good thing
6. Vitamin A (or cod liver oil) inhibited the vitamin D dose
7. The group was known to have mal-absorption problems - so a different vitamin D should have been used
8. Individuals were using drugs which are known to inhibit vitamin D
9. Participants had low compliance (people tend to forget to take the pill in trials which run for years, easy to remember if it is on the calendar)
10. Participants already have enough Vitamin D and adding more does not provide any additional benefit - example RCT of colds Oct 2012
