Effects of vitamin D supplementation on glucose metabolism and pregnancy outcomes in GDM: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Vitamin D supplementation may improve glucose metabolism and reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients. However, the findings should be interpreted with caution due to substantial heterogeneity among studies and the methodological limitations of the included trials. These exploratory results highlight the need for further rigorous research to confirm the effects.
