NCT ID NCT07167797

Summary

This study tested whether giving vitamin D to children hospitalized with rotavirus stomach flu could help them feel better faster. Researchers looked at 60 children in Iraq who had low vitamin D levels and confirmed rotavirus infection. They measured if vitamin D shortened the duration and reduced the severity of diarrhea and vomiting, and checked its effect on inflammation in the body.
