Self-consistent random phase approximation (RPA) approaches in the relativistic framework are applied to calculate the isospin symmetry-breaking corrections $\delta_c$ for the $0^+\to0^+$ superallowed transitions.
- It is found that the corrections $\delta_c$ are sensitive to the proper treatments of the Coulomb mean field, but not so much to specific effective interactions.
- With these corrections $\delta_c$, the nucleus-independent $\mathcal{F}t$ values are obtained in combination with the experimental $ft$ values in the most recent survey and the improved radiative corrections.
- It is found that the constancy of the $\mathcal{F}t$ values is satisfied for all effective interactions employed.
