Serum 25-OH Vitamin D in relation to Bone Mineral Density and Bone Turnover

Abstract: It is unclear which vitamin D status is optimal for bone health. In this study, we aimed to assess cutoffs of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) derived by the literature (20, 25, or 30 ng/mL) in relation to bone turnover and bone mineral density (BMD). Serum 25OHD, PTH, osteocalcin, bone alkaline phosphatase, and C-telopeptide were measured in 274 consecutive postmenopausal women. BMD of the lumbar spine (L1–L4) and of femoral neck were also evaluated. 50 patients had normal BMD, while 124 had osteopenia and 100 had… Show more

“…In postmenopausal women of southern Europe, BMD was lower in vitamin D-deficient groups who also had high levels of bone resorption and formation markers. 95 In 70 patients with CKD stage 5D, BMD was significantly low only at the mid-radius, but did not predict the risk of fracture and was not correlated with circulating 25OHD and 1,25OH2D levels. Rib fractures were associated with a poor nutritional status.…”
