Decreases all-cause mortality
ModerateEvidence strength: moderate. Human evidence with one recorded weakness, or capped at moderate by its design or by unread numbers.Findingreplicated ×10“Pooled results from all the 21 included studies showed that prophylactic vitamin A supplementation reduced all-cause mortality by 15% [RR 0.85, 95% CI: 0.76-0.94, random model] in children 0-59 months of age (data not shown).”
