Guidelines for preventing and treating vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency revisited. (2012, background): “(48) concluded that there was a lower risk of mortality for 25(OH)D levels of 30–49 ng/ml and levels greater than 50 ng/ml were associated with a higher risk of mortality in women but not men.”
The vitamin D deficiency pandemic: Approaches for diagnosis, treatment and prevention (2017, background): “However one of the studies that they plotted actually concluded that there continued to be at decreased risk for mortality from men above 50 ng/mL and that only in women there was a possibility of a slight increased risk for mortality [77].”
Systematic Review: Vitamin D and Cardiometabolic Outcomes (2010, background): “Among the studies that evaluated fatal cardiovascular events, 2 of 3 (37, 38, 40) found statistically significant associations that favored higher vitamin D concentration for all fatal cardiovascular events (cardiac or stroke), 2 (39, 40) found similar significant associations with fatal stroke, and”
Circulating 25-Hydroxy-Vitamin D and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: A Meta-Analysis of Prospective Studies (2012, background): “Some previous studies have suggested a possible nonlinear association, with a threshold effect or even a U-shaped relation, between 25(OH)-vitamin D and risk of CVD.(11,16) Because of the limited data and the heterogeneity between studies, especially with respect to the categories of 25(OH)vitamin D”
Vitamin D: The “sunshine” vitamin (2012, background): “The high prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency is a particularly important public health issue because hypovitaminosis D is an independent risk factor for total mortality in the general population.[5] Emerging research supports the possible role of vitamin D against cancer, heart disease, fractures ”
Vitamin D and cardiovascular disease. (2014, background): “153 Significant associations between vitamin D deficiency and CVD mortality have been reported in older adults,(148,152,153) although in a report from NHANES of 13 331 participants, this was not significant.(147) A recent population-based study of 9146 younger (30–71 years) adults found significant ”
