TL;DR: The data support a link between TLRs and vitamin D–mediated innate immunity and suggest that differences in ability of human populations to produce vitamin D may contribute to susceptibility to microbial infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and risk of multiple sclerosis
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that high circulating levels of vitamin D are associated with a lower risk of multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels Indicative of Vitamin D Sufficiency: Implications for Establishing a New Effective Dietary Intake Recommendation for Vitamin D
TL;DR: It has been more than 3 decades since the first assay assessing circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D in human subjects was performed and led to the definition of "normal" nutritional vitamin D status, i.e., vitamin D sufficiency, and current dietary recommendations for adults are not sufficient to maintain circulating 25(OH)D levels at or above this level, especially in pregnancy and lactation.
Journal ArticleDOI
25-hydroxyvitamin D and risk of myocardial infarction in men: a prospective study.
TL;DR: Low levels of 25(OH)D are associated with higher risk of myocardial infarction in a graded manner, even after controlling for factors known to be associated with coronary artery disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin D2 Is Much Less Effective than Vitamin D3 in Humans
TL;DR: Physicians resorting to use of vitamin D(2) should be aware of its markedly lower potency and shorter duration of action relative to vitamin D (3), with the relative potencies for D(3) being 9.5:1.
