Correlation between Vitamin D, homocysteine and brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in patients with ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D supplementation was used as a therapeutic agent in patients with acute ischemic stroke that affects homocysteine and BDNF levels. In this study, it was demonstrated for the first time that there is a correlation between serum vitamin D levels and BDNF levels in patients who have experienced a stroke.PMID:36394751 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202211_30154

Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Lower Extremity Motor Function and Ambulation in Stroke Patients
CONCLUSION: Vitamin D supplementation may increase the success of rehabilitation therapy in patients during the first 3 months post-stroke.PMID:33705638 | DOI:10.3906/sag-2010-287

Vitamin D supplementation and risk of stroke: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionOur study revealed that additional vitamin D supplementation did not reduce the risk of stroke. Therefore, additional RCTs of similar design should not be encouraged to assess any association between vitamin D supplementation and reduced stroke risk.

A systematic review examining the effect of vitamin D supplementation on functional outcomes post-stroke
CONCLUSIONS: The majority of studies showed a statistical improvement in motor function, mobility, and stroke impairment with vitamin D supplementation; however, the evidence did not support an improvement in activities of daily living with treatment. Despite this, there may not be clinical significance. Strong, methodologically sound, randomized controlled trials are required to verify these findings.PMID:37166229 | DOI:10.1177/02692155231174599

Vitamin D status and its association with season, depression in stroke
ConclusionsVitamin D deficiency and insufficiency occur at high rates in acute stroke patients. Low serum vitamin D levels were associated with depression in patients with acute stroke as analyzed by both the absolute level of vitamin D and month-specific tertiles. Intervention studies are needed to determine the benefits of vitamin D supplementation for depression in poststroke patients.

Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on the Prognosis of Post-stroke Fatigue: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Conclusions: Our results indicated that vitamin D supplementation could improve fatigue symptoms and neurological outcomes in PSF patients with vitamin D deficiency. Subject to replication in other settings, a randomized controlled trial (RCT) might be undertaken to validate the potential beneficial impact of vitamin D supplementation in post-stroke patients found to be vitamin D deficient.

Vitamin D, Hypertension, and Ischemic Stroke in 116 655 Individuals From the General PopulationNovelty and Significance Epidemiology/Population
Observational studies indicate that low concentrations of plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) are associated with high blood pressure, hypertension, and ischemic stroke. However, whether these associations are causal remain unknown. A total of 116 655 white individuals of Danish descent from the general population were genotyped for genetic variants in DHCR7 and CYP2R1 affecting plasma 25(OH)D concentrations; 35 517 had plasma 25(OH)D measurements. Primary outcomes were blood pressure, hypertension, and ischemic stroke. Median follow-up for incident ischemic stroke was 9.3 years (range, 1 day–33.6 years). DHCR7/CYP2R1 a...

Association of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 With Ischemic Stroke and Its Subtypes: A Mendelian Randomization Study
In this study, we aimed to assess the association of FGF23 with ischemic stroke and its subtypes by applying a Mendelian randomization (MR) framework. Five genetic variants obtained from a genome-wide association study involving 16,624 European subjects were used as valid instruments of circulating FGF23 levels. MR was applied to infer the causality of FGF23 levels and the risk of ischemic stroke using data from the MEGASTROKE consortium. Subsequently, several MR analyses, including inverse-variance weighted meta-analysis, MR-Egger, weighted median estimate (WME), MR Pleiotropy Residual Sum and Outlier were performed. The ...

Association between Fok1 and TaqI polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor gene with the severity of stenosis and calcification in carotid bulb in patients with ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: There may be a biological association between the FokI VDR gene and carotid bulb calcification.PMID:35091316 | DOI:10.1016/j.jocn.2022.01.009
