Abstract

This <i>meta</i>-analysis suggested that low blood levels of vitamin D are associated with MACE, but no such difference in all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction or heart failure was observed. Appropriate supplementation of vitamin D in selected populations might be cardioprotective in nature and warrants extensive trials.
