Genetic evidence suggests a causal relationship between levels of vitamin D and mortality in people with low vitamin D levels, according to researchers.
Using data from 33 prospective studies – including UK Biobank, the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition Cardiovascular Disease study (EPIC-CVD) and 31 studies from the Vitamin D Studies Collaboration (VitDSC) – the group conducted both observational and genetic analyses.
They analyzed data from 386,406 middle-aged individuals with European ancestry.
