Input: Six trials involving 1740 children were included. There was no significant reduction in mortality associated with pneumonia in children treated with vitamin A compared to those who were not (pooled odds ratio (OR) 1.29; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.63 to 2.66). Also, there was no statistically significant difference in duration of hospital stay (mean difference (MD) 0.08; 95% CI -0.43 to 0.59). Disease severity after supplementary high-dose vitamin A was significantly worse compared with placebo. However, low-dose vitamin A significantly reduced the recurrence rate of bronchopneumonia (OR 0.12; 95% CI 0.03 to 0.46). Moderate vitamin A significantly reduced the time to remission of signs in children with normal serum retinol (> 200 ug/L). The evidence does not suggest a significant reduction in mortality, measures of morbidity, nor an effect on the clinical course of pneumonia with vitamin A adjunctive treatment in children with non-measles pneumonia. However, not all studies measured all outcomes, which limited the number of studies that could be incorporated into the meta-analyses, so that there may have been a lack of statistical power to detect statistically significant differences.
Output:

We found six trials (1740 participants) that used vitamin A adjunctive therapy in children with non-measles pneumonia. There was no significant reduction in mortality or duration of hospital stay. Supplementary high-dose vitamin A may result in a worsening of the disease, and low-dose vitamin A significantly reduces the recurrence of bronchopneumonia. Moderate-dose vitamin A significantly reduces the time to remission of signs in children with normal serum retinol. The possible reason of the lack of benefit of vitamin A in non-measles pneumonia is that the effects of vitamin A may be disease-specific, with vitamin A only being effective when pneumonia is complicated with measles. Further high-quality research is required.
