The associations of RA with vitamin D intake from both diet and supplement use are presented in Table 2. Greater intake (highest versus lowest tertile) of total daily vitamin D was inversely associated with risk of RA (RR 0.67, 95% CI 0.44–1.00, P for trend = 0.05). Inverse associations were apparent for both dietary (RR 0.72, 95% CI 0.46–1.14, P for trend = 0.16) and supplemental (RR 0.66, 95% CI 0.43–1.00, P for trend = 0.03) vitamin D. These measures of effect remained robust after adjustment for multiple confounders. zynevTable 2.
