While the fixed-effect model produced a highly significant result (p<0.00001), this was not upheld under the random-effects model (p=0.28), which showed considerable heterogeneity (I2=95%).

This trend was reflected in our meta-analysis, which showed a borderline significant reduction in the odds of requiring mechanical ventilation in vitamin D-sufficient patients (p=0.05), further reinforcing the potential respiratory benefits of adequate vitamin D levels in this population.
[ 15 ] observed a higher proportion of graft loss in vitamin D-deficient patients compared to those with sufficient levels, though the difference did not reach statistical significance.
