Retrospective study comparing 847 patients receiving ≤149,000IU vitamin D and 170 receiving ≥150,000IU, showing no significant differences, however the result may not be very meaningful - membership in the higher cumulative dose group requires longer hospitalization, e.g., patients discharged shortly after admission (a positive outcome) could not be in the higher cumulative dose group.

Background: Vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2cholecalciferol) as a treatment for Contact information: COVID 19 patients is being disputed, and a clear clinical benefit is not being confirmed. Methods: A retrospective evaluation for COVID-19 patients who were treated with various cumulative doses of vitamin D. Data was extracted from the COVID-19 database, it included patients admitted to three hospitals in Amman, Jordan. Characteristics of patients were tabulated and compared for all-cohort, and propensity score index (PSI) adjustment. The comparison was based on two vitamin D strata (≤ 149,000 i.u. and > 150,000 i.u.). Logistic regression analysis was utilized to predict recovery, the need for oxygen, and all-cause mortality for all-cohort, IPSW, and IPTW patients, based on vitamin D cumulative doses during their hospital stay. Jamal Wadi Al Ramahi, MD, FIDSA. jamalwadimd@yahoo.com Results: 1131 all-cohort and 768 PSI-adjusted patients were recruited. Except for antibiotics and antivirals, all other characteristics were balanced (P = NS). There were 1017 patients on vitamin D, 847 received cumulative ≤ 149,000 i.u., and 170 patients received cumulative dose © Under License of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License This article is available at: www.iajaa.org 1 The International Arabic Journal of Antimicrobial Agents ISSN: 2174-9094 ≥ 150,000 i.u. (Range 1000 – 385000). It was demonstrated that the escalation of the cumulative doses of vitamin D did not contribute to the assessed outcomes; all-cohort patients (OR = 1.000, 95% C.I. 1.000 to 1.000), IPSW (OR = 1.000, 95% C.I. 1.000 to 1.000), and the IPTW (OR = 1.000, 95% C.I. 1.000 to 1.000). Conclusion: In our patients’ cohorts, we could not demonstrate a beneficial effect for vitamin D therapy in COVID-19 patients in recovery, the need for home oxygen, and all-cause mortality, by hospital discharge.
