Impact of vitamin D in the treatment of tuberculosis.

The American journal of the medical sciences - 1 Jun 2011

Luong Khanh vinh quoc, Nguyen Lan Thi Hoang

Abstract excerpt

Tuberculosis (TB) is a major global health problem and often coincides with nutritional deficiency. In fact, vitamin D deficiency has been reported among TB patients, and vitamin D receptor polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. High doses of vitamin D were widely used to treat TB patients in the preantibiotic era. This approach was successful: vitamin D can suppress...
