ObjectiveTo systematically review the quality of evidence-based guidelines (EBGs) on medication therapy for children with vitamin D deficiency, and to compare differences and similarities of the drugs recommended, in order to provide guidance for clinical practice. MethodsDatabases such as the TRIP, PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data, CBM, National Guideline Clearinghouse and Guidelines International Network were searched to collect EBGs on medication therapy for children with vitamin D deficiency. The methodological quality of the guideline was evaluated according to the AGREE Ⅱ instrument, and the differences between recommendations were compared. ResultsA total of 9 EBGs were included. Among them, 3 guidelines were developed by America, 1 by Europe, 1 by France, 1 by China, 1 by Poland, 1 by Canadian and 1 guideline was by Australia and New Zealand. Seven guidelines were developed specially for children, while others were for people of different ages. According to the AGREE Ⅱ instrument, only "Scope and purpose" and "clarity and presentation" were scored more than 60%. The recommendations of different guidelines were of large different. ConclusionThe quality of included guidelines concerning children with vitamin D deficiency is vary. Although only the America 2011 guideline is of high quality, the strength of recommendation is not high. Thus, the development of national guidelines is urgently needed.
