Bone marrow levels of 25 hydroxy vitamin D are not depressed in cases of hip fracture compared with controls.
- Abstract:
-
There is little information on tissue as distinct from plasma levels of vitamin D metabolites in cases of hip fracture compared with controls. Femoral neck fractures in the elderly are associated with increased cortical remodelling and endosteal resorption, leading to regional increases in porosity and reduced cortical thickness. Vitamin D metabolites play a central role in the maintenance of normal serum calcium levels and may, through interactions with parathyroid hormone, exert an importan...
