Vitamin D and fractures

A trial of 25,871 adults and a meta-analysis of 81 trials, in agreement.

Does vitamin D prevent fractures in healthy older adults?

Supplemental Vitamin D and Incident Fractures in Midlife and Older AdultsN Engl J Med · 2022Randomized trial · 25,871 adultspubmedL1
Effects of vitamin D supplementation on musculoskeletal health: a systematic review, meta-analysis, and trial sequential analysisLancet Diabetes Endocrinol · 2018Meta-analysis · 81 trials · 53,537 adultspubmedL1

No. In adults 50 and over, 2,000 IU a day did not lower total, nonvertebral, or hip fractures. pubmedL1

A meta-analysis of 81 trials found no effect on fractures or falls. pubmedL1

Should healthy adults over 70 take aspirin?

Effect of Aspirin on Disability-free Survival in the Healthy ElderlyN Engl J Med · 2018Randomized trial · 19,114 adultspubmedL1
Effect of Aspirin on Cardiovascular Events and Bleeding in the Healthy ElderlyN Engl J Med · 2018Randomized trial · 19,114 adultspubmedL1

No. Without cardiovascular disease, aspirin 100 mg did not prolong disability-free survival. pubmedL1

Cardiovascular events did not fall, and major bleeding rose (HR 1.38). pubmedL1

Does tranexamic acid save lives in postpartum hemorrhage?

Effect of early tranexamic acid administration on mortality, hysterectomy, and other morbidities in women with post-partum haemorrhage (WOMAN): an international, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trialLancet · 2017Randomized trial · 20,060 womenpubmedL1
Effect of treatment delay on the effectiveness and safety of antifibrinolytics in acute severe haemorrhage: a meta-analysis of individual patient-level data from 40 138 bleeding patientsLancet · 2018Patient-level meta-analysis · 40,138 patientspubmedL1

Yes. 1 g IV cut death from bleeding (1.5% vs 1.9%), most when given within 3 hours of birth. pubmedL1

The benefit falls about 10% for every 15 minutes of delay and is gone after 3 hours. pubmedL1

Is a short amoxicillin course enough for pneumonia in children?

Effect of Amoxicillin Dose and Treatment Duration on the Need for Antibiotic Re-treatment in Children With Community-Acquired Pneumonia: The CAP-IT Randomized Clinical TrialJAMA · 2021Randomized trial · 824 childrenpubmedL1
Short- vs Standard-Course Outpatient Antibiotic Therapy for Community-Acquired Pneumonia in Children: The SCOUT-CAP Randomized Clinical TrialJAMA Pediatr · 2022Randomized trial · 380 childrenpubmedL1

Yes, for children sent home: 3 days was noninferior to 7, with re-treatment at 12.5% in both. pubmedL1

Stopping at 5 days instead of 10 gave similar outcomes, with fewer resistance genes. pubmedL1

Trial results carry their level, so a meta-analysis never reads like a case series.

Systematic reviews and meta-analyses

Many trials pooled into one estimate.

Randomized controlled trials

Chance decides who gets the treatment.

Cohort studies

Groups followed forward in time.

Case-control studies

People with the outcome compared with people without it.

Case series

A run of patients, with no comparison group.

Expert opinion

Consensus statements and expert views.

Searching the literature with Vero.

How do I search peer-reviewed articles without Boolean or MeSH terms?

Type the clinical question in plain words. Vero finds the studies that answer it and shows each one with its journal, year, design, size, and level of evidence.

Which articles does Vero search?

Peer-reviewed journals, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, randomized trials and clinical studies, along with clinical guidelines and drug references. Never forums or blogs.

How is each study graded?

Trial literature carries a level of evidence from its design: L1 for systematic reviews and randomized trials, L2 for cohort studies, L3 for case-control studies and case series, and L4 for expert opinion.

Can I open the paper behind an answer?

Yes. Every citation links to its source, such as the article’s PubMed record, so you can read the abstract or the full paper.

What if the studies disagree?

The answer says so. It cites the trials on each side, so you can see which found a benefit and which did not.

Can I ask questions about a paper I already have?

Yes. Attach the PDF with Upload Files (up to 50 MB each) and ask about its methods or results. The answer names the file it came from.

Can my team keep a shared set of papers?

Yes. Add PDFs, Word files, and web pages to a Library collection your organization shares. Once a paper is ready, answers cite it by name.

Is Vero Evidence free?

It is included in every Vero plan. The free plan comes with 10 actions a month and needs no credit card; Pro is unlimited.
