TL;DR: The evidence base is currently insufficient to support definite clinical recommendations regarding vitamin D supplementation in pregnancy, and modest positive relationships were identified between maternal 25(OH)D status and offspring birthweight, bone mass and serum calcium concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of fractures in the United Kingdom 1988-2012 : Variation with age, sex, geography, ethnicity and socioeconomic status
Elizabeth M Curtis,Robert Y. van der Velde,Rebecca J Moon,Joop P. W. van den Bergh,Piet Geusens,Piet Geusens,Frank de Vries,Frank de Vries,Tjeerd van Staa,Tjeerd van Staa,Cyrus Cooper,Cyrus Cooper,Cyrus Cooper,Nicholas C. Harvey,Nicholas C. Harvey +14 more
TL;DR: This study presents robust estimates of fracture incidence across the UK, which will aid decisions regarding allocation of healthcare provision to populations of greatest need and assist the implementation and design of strategies to reduce fracture incidence and its personal and financial impact on individuals and health services.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of fragility fracture and approaches to osteoporosis risk assessment worldwide
TL;DR: Research is ongoing to demonstrate the clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of osteoporosis case finding and risk assessment strategies worldwide, and the huge burden caused by bone mineral density related fractures to individuals, healthcare systems and societies should provide a clear impetus for the progression of such approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal gestational vitamin D supplementation and offspring bone health (MAVIDOS): a multicentre, double-blind, randomised placebo-controlled trial.
Cyrus Cooper,Cyrus Cooper,Cyrus Cooper,Nicholas C. Harvey,Nicholas C. Harvey,Nick Bishop,Stephen Kennedy,Aris T. Papageorghiou,Inez Schoenmakers,Robert Fraser,S V Gandhi,Andrew Carr,Stefania D'Angelo,Sarah Crozier,Rebecca J Moon,Nigel K Arden,Elaine M. Dennison,Keith M. Godfrey,Keith M.

TL;DR: It is shown that 1000 IU of cholecalciferol daily is sufficient to ensure that most pregnant women are vitamin D replete, and it is safe, and these findings support current approaches to vitamin D supplementation in pregnancy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal plasma polyunsaturated fatty acid status in late pregnancy is associated with offspring body composition in childhood.
