“…In contrast, some recent studies have suggested that 25(OH)D may play a role in the regulation of adiponectin [11,15]. Adiponectin was identified and confirmed to be significantly decreased in 25(OH)D deficient obese pediatric [16]. Kardas et al, 2013 [11] in Turkey reported that 25(OH)D was positively correlated with adiponectin.…”

“…Obesity is usually correlated with the higher prevalence of hypovitaminosis or the lower circulating 25(OH) D level in both pediatric as well as adult populations [15]. Low vitamin D stores as determined by 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH) D] levels; which is the most accurate way to measure how much vitamin D is in the body ( normal, insufficiency or deficiency); are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular and mortality, but the mechanisms for this are unclear [16].…”
