Effects of a Novel Dispersible Supplement Containing 2500 IU of Vitamin D and 1000 µg of B12 in Restoring Vitamin D and B12 Insufficiency: A Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/
objectivesVitamins D and B12 play a crucial role in maintaining bone health, immune function, and neurological integrity. Combined deficiencies in these vitamins can lead to severe health consequences. Current treatment approaches, such as dietary changes and single-vitamin supplementation, often fail to address these deficiencies comprehensively. This study evaluates the effectiveness of concurrent vitamin D and B12 supplementation to correct these insufficiencies.
methodsA prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial was conducted in Greece from October 2024 to December 2024. Participants aged 20 to 80 years, with insufficient levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (serum < 20 ng/mL) and B12 (serum < 250 ng/L), were eligible for inclusion.
resultsA total of 124 patients were randomized into three groups: one receiving vitamins B12 and D in a single supplement (2500 IU + 1000 mcg), one receiving separate doses of each vitamin (2000 IU + 1000 mcg), and a control group receiving no supplementation. The results demonstrated a significant increase in B12 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels among the supplemented groups. Particularly, participants in the combined supplementation group showed higher average serum levels of both vitamins. By the end of this study, 37.1% of those in the combined supplement group achieved adequate vitamin levels, compared to 29.4% in the separate supplementation group.
conclusionsIn conclusion, combined supplementation may improve patient adherence and compliance, leading to better health outcomes for individuals with combined vitamins D and B12 deficiencies.
