Vertebral bone mineral content

1. 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D is associated with vertebral bone mineral content in humans (r = 0.51).

   “The fall in vertebral bone mineral content correlated well with the declines in serum 25OHD and 24,25-(OH)2D concentrations (r = 0.47; P less than 0.001 and r = 0.51; P less than 0.001, respectively)”
