Abstract
Despite the fact that there are few and inconsistent randomized controlled studies investigating calcium obtained from food, calcium and vitamin D are frequently utilized as calcium supplements in people's daily lives, so the effectiveness of food-derived calcium and calcium or a combination of the two is in question. Through a review and qualitative research, this paper explores the connection between dietary calcium and fracture incidence. The link between dietary calcium, vitamin D, or combination dietary calcium and vitamin D supplements and fracture incidence in the elderly over 65 years of age was examined. Calcium intake was based on food sources.A comprehensive search of the PubMed database was conducted. Use the keywords dietary calcium, vitamin D, and fracture to search for relevant randomized controlled trials in English studies. Search the Cochrane Library and EMBASE databases to add additional randomized clinical trials. Data were extracted from papers independently by two reviewers and entered into data tables. By using Cochran's Q statistic and the I-2 statistic, it was possible to determine whether the rate estimates were heterogeneous. Hip fracture was the primary outcome and total fracture was the secondary outcome.
