- 01 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: A large genome-wide association study of clinically diagnosed AD and AD-by-proxy identifies new loci and functional pathways that contribute to AD risk and adds novel insights into the neurobiology of AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, parathyroid hormone and calcium with cardiovascular risk factors: analysis of 3 NHANES cycles (2001-2006).

TL;DR: Lower levels of 25(OH)D and higher levels of calcium and PTH appear to be associated with different cardiovascular risk factors and may therefore affect cardiovascular disease risk through different mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of vitamin D, parathyroid hormone and calcium with cardiovascular risk factors in US adolescents

TL;DR: Higher calcium levels might be a more important predictor of increased cardiovascular risk in adolescents than lower 25(OH)D levels or PTH levels, but the findings require replication in additional studies and examination in prospective studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
