Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recent studies show a wide prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in Asian Indians. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to assess the functional significance of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] deficiency, vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene polymorphisms in relation to bone mineral density (BMD) in urban Asian Indians. DESIGN: Serum total calcium, inorganic phosphorus, alkaline...
