RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Vitamin D supplementation has been shown to increase total hip areal bone mineral density in healthy children and adolescents. We aimed to investigate whether supplementing schoolchildren living in Mongolia with weekly vitamin D3 for 3 years affected fracture risk. METHODS: We did a multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial across 18 public schools in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Schoolchildren were eligible if they were aged 6-13 years at screening, had a negative QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-tube assay (QFT) result, were not hypersensitive to vitamin D or immunocompromised, did not use vitamin D supplements, did not have clinical signs of rickets, and had no intention of leaving Ulaanbaatar within 3 years. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either vitamin D (oral dose of 14 000 international units [IU] vitamin D3, once per week) or placebo for 3 years using permuted block randomisation stratified by school of attendance. Participants, care providers, and all trial staff were masked to group assignment during the intervention. Prespecified secondary outcomes were incidence of fractures and adverse events, ascertained using questionnaires. The fracture and safety analyses included participants who completed at least one follow-up fracture questionnaire. We estimated adjusted risk ratios (RRs) and 95% CIs using generalised linear models with binomial distribution and a log link function with adjustment for school of attendance. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02276755, and the intervention ended in May, 2019. FINDINGS: Between Sept 2, 2015, and March 20, 2017, 11 475 children were invited to participate in the study and 8851 were recruited and randomly assigned to receive either vitamin D (n=4418) or placebo (n=4433). 8348 participants were included in the fracture and safety analyses (4176 [94·5%] in the vitamin D group and 4172 [94·1%] in the placebo group). Of these, 4125 (49·4%) were female, 4223 (50·6%) were male, and 7701 (92·2%) were of Khalkh ancestry. Median age was 9·2 years (IQR 8·0-10·7) and 7975 (95·5%) participants had baseline serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations less than 50 nmol/L. During a median follow-up of 3·0 years (IQR 2·9-3·1), 268 (6·4%) participants in the vitamin D group and 253 (6·1%) in the placebo group reported one or more fractures (adjusted RR 1·10, 95% CI 0·93-1·29; p=0·27). Incidence of adverse events did not differ between study groups. INTERPRETATION: Oral vitamin D supplementation at a dose of 14 000 IU/week for 3 years was safe, but did not influence fracture risk in schoolchildren living in Mongolia who had a high baseline prevalence of vitamin D deficiency.

RESUMO

Objective: To determine whether weekly oral vitamin D supplementation influences grip strength, explosive leg power, cardiorespiratory fitness or spirometric lung volumes in Mongolian schoolchildren. Methods: Multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial conducted in children aged 6-13 years at baseline attending 18 schools in Ulaanbaatar. The intervention was weekly oral doses of 14 000 IU vitamin D3 (n=4418) or placebo (n=4433) for 3 years. Outcome measures were grip strength, standing long jump distance and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations (determined in all participants), peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak, determined in a subset of 632 participants using 20 m multistage shuttle run tests) and spirometric outcomes (determined in a subset of 1343 participants). Results: 99.8% of participants had serum 25(OH)D concentrations <75 nmol/L at baseline, and mean end-study 25(OH)D concentrations in children randomised to vitamin D versus placebo were 77.4 vs 26.7 nmol/L (mean difference 50.7 nmol/L, 95% CI 49.7 to 51.4). However, vitamin D supplementation did not influence mean grip strength, standing long jump distance, VO2peak, spirometric lung volumes or peak expiratory flow rate, either overall or within subgroups defined by sex, baseline 25(OH)D concentration <25 vs ≥25 nmol/L or calcium intake <500 vs ≥500 mg/day. Conclusion: A 3-year course of weekly oral supplementation with 14 000 IU vitamin D3 elevated serum 25(OH)D concentrations in Mongolian schoolchildren with a high baseline prevalence of vitamin D deficiency. However, this intervention did not influence grip strength, explosive leg power, peak oxygen uptake or spirometric lung volumes, either overall or in subgroup analyses. Trial registration number: NCT02276755.

Results: 99.8% of participants had serum 25(OH)D concentrations <75 nmol/L at baseline, and mean end-study 25(OH)D concentrations in children randomised to vitamin D vs. placebo were 77.4 vs. 26.7 nmol/L (mean difference 50.7 nmol/L, 95% CI, 49.7 to 51.4). However, vitamin D supplementation did not influence mean grip strength, standing long jump distance, VO2peak, spirometric lung volumes or peak expiratory flow rate, either overall or within sub-groups defined by sex, baseline 25(OH)D concentration <25 vs. ≥25 nmol/L or calcium intake <500 vs. ≥500 mg/day.

However, this intervention did not influence grip strength, explosive leg power, peak oxygen uptake or spirometric lung volumes, either overall or in sub-group analyses.

RESUMO

Background: Randomized controlled trials (RCT) of vitamin D supplementation to reduce fracture risk in children are lacking. Methods: We conducted a Phase 3 RCT of weekly oral supplementation with 14,000 IU vitamin D3 for 3 years in Mongolian schoolchildren aged 6-13 years. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations and the proportion of participants reporting ≥1 fracture were secondary outcomes for the main trial. Radial bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed in a nested sub-study, with serum concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) determined in a subset of participants. Findings: 8851 children were enrolled in the main trial, of whom 1465 also participated in the sub-study. Vitamin D deficiency was prevalent at baseline (25[OH]D <20 ng/mL in 90.1%). The intervention elevated 25(OH)D concentrations (adjusted inter-arm mean difference [aMD] 20.3 ng/mL, 95% CI 19.9 to 20.6) and suppressed PTH concentrations (aMD -13.6 pmol/L, 95% CI -23.5 to -3.7), but it did not influence fracture risk (adjusted risk ratio 1.10, 95% CI 0.93 to 1.29, P=0.27) or radial BMD z-score (aMD -0.06, 95% CI -0.18 to 0.07, P=0.36). Vitamin D suppressed serum BALP concentrations more among participants with baseline 25(OH)D concentrations <10 vs. ≥10 ng/mL (Pinteraction=0.04). However, effects of the intervention on fracture risk and radial BMD were not modified by baseline vitamin D status (Pinteraction≥0.67). Interpretation: Weekly oral vitamin D supplementation elevated serum 25(OH)D concentrations and suppressed PTH concentrations in vitamin D-deficient schoolchildren in Mongolia. However, this was not associated with reduced fracture risk or increased radial BMD. Funding: National Institutes of Health.
