Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Sarcopenia is defined as a reduction in skeletal muscle mass, strength, and endurance observed with advancing age. Although Vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphism is reported to be associated with muscle mass and strength, evidence for this is limited and conflicting. In this study, we examined the association between the polymorphisms of VDR gene BsmI, TaqI and FokI and muscular mass and...
