Abstract

Over the past few decades, there has been extensive research on the use of vitamin D as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment and prevention of tuberculosis. In vitro studies have provided valuable insights into the mechanisms by which vitamin D activates the immune response to combat Mycobacterium tuberculosis. These encouraging findings have spurred clinical investigations globally to assess the effectiveness of vitamin D as a preventive measure and as an adjunctive treatment for tuberculosis. However, the results from these clinical studies have been contradictory, with some demonstrating clear efficacy while others report only modest or no activity. In this review, we aim to analyze the clinical studies on vitamin D and examine the possible discrepancies observed in their outcomes.

揭示结核病中的维生素 D:全面回顾临床试验和差异。
在过去几十年中,人们对使用维生素 D 作为治疗和预防结核病的辅助疗法进行了广泛的研究。体外研究为了解维生素 D 激活免疫反应以抗击结核分枝杆菌的机制提供了宝贵的见解。这些令人鼓舞的发现推动了全球范围内的临床研究,以评估维生素 D 作为结核病预防措施和辅助治疗手段的有效性。然而,这些临床研究的结果却相互矛盾,一些研究显示了明显的疗效,而另一些研究则报告称仅有少量活性或无活性。在这篇综述中,我们旨在分析有关维生素 D 的临床研究,并探讨研究结果中可能存在的差异。
