Prevalence and effects of Vitamin D receptor polymorphism on bone mineral density and metabolism in patients with systemic sclerosis: a preliminary study

2024-03-29

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Introduction: Patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) have a disproportionately high prevalence of reduced bone mineral density (BMD). Polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene have been associated with osteoporosis in patients with autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and possible effects of VDR polymorphism on BMD and bone metabolism in...
