Mammographic density and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels
BACKGROUND Vitamin D, which influences cellular proliferation and breast tissue characteristics, has been inversely correlated with breast cancer risk. Dietary vitamin D intake has been associated with lower mammographic density (MD), a strong intermediate marker of breast cancer risk. FINDINGS We examined the relationship between MD and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], an integrated meas...
متن کاملNo association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D and mammographic density.
There is increasing evidence that vitamin D may protect against breast cancer. Some studies have suggested that dietary and supplemental vitamin D is associated with reduced mammographic density, which is highly associated with breast cancer risk, although this evidence is not entirely consistent. We investigated a possible association between circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), the best i...
متن کاملSerum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and risk of multiple sclerosis.
CONTEXT Epidemiological and experimental evidence suggests that high levels of vitamin D, a potent immunomodulator, may decrease the risk of multiple sclerosis. There are no prospective studies addressing this hypothesis. OBJECTIVE To examine whether levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are associated with risk of multiple sclerosis. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Prospective, nested case-contr...
متن کاملOptimal serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels for multiple health outcomes.
Recent evidence suggests that higher vitamin D intakes beyond current recommendations may be associated with better health outcomes. In this chapter, evidence is summarized from different studies that evaluate threshold levels for serum 25(OH)D levels in relation to bone mineral density (BMD), lower extremity function, dental health, risk of falls, admission to nursing home, fractures, cancer p...
متن کاملSerum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels in Pediatric Burn Patients
BACKGROUND Previous studies have implicated the important and active role of vitamin D in the immune system. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in children with burn injuries. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 118 patients with various degrees of burn injuries were enrolled. A checklist consisting of demographic data, tota...
