TLDR
Considering that vitamin D deficiency is very common in all age groups and that few foods contain vitamin D, the Task Force recommended supplementation at suggested daily intake and tolerable upper limit levels, depending on age and clinical circumstances.Abstract:
Objective: The objective was to provide guidelines to clinicians for the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of vitamin D deficiency with an emphasis on the care of patients who are at risk for deficiency. Participants: The Task Force was composed of a Chair, six additional experts, and a methodologist. The Task Force received no corporate funding or remuneration. Consensus Process: Consensus was guided by systematic reviews of evidence and discussions during several conference calls and e-mail communications. The draft prepared by the Task Force was reviewed successively by The Endocrine Society's Clinical Guidelines Subcommittee, Clinical Affairs Core Committee, and cosponsoring associations, and it was posted on The Endocrine Society web site for member review. At each stage of review, the Task Force received written comments and incorporated needed changes. Conclusions: Considering that vitamin D deficiency is very common in all age groups and that few foods contain vitamin D, the Task Force recomme...read more

Manar Atoum,Foad Alzoughool +1 more
TL;DR: An association between serum vitamin D concentration and breast cancer risk is reflected, the link between vitamin D receptor genetic polymorphisms and breastcancer risk is revealed, and the relationship between vitaminD level, breast cancerrisk, and prognostic factors such as tumor stage, grade, size, lymph node involvement, and hormone receptor status are reviewed.

The vitamin D endocrine system
TL;DR: The vitamin D endocrine system comprises a group of 7-dehydrocholesterol-derived secosteroid molecules, including its active metabolite 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D (1,25(OH)(2)D), its precursors and other metabolites, its binding protein (DBP) and nuclear receptor (VDR), as well as cytochrome P450 complex enzymes participating in activation and inactivation pathways of those molecules.

Consumption of Yogurts Fortified in Vitamin D and Calcium Reduces Serum Parathyroid Hormone and Markers of Bone Resorption: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial in Institutionalized Elderly Women
TL;DR: This study in institutionalized elderly at high risk for osteoporotic fracture suggests that fortification of dairy products with vitamin D₃ and calcium provides a greater prevention of accelerated bone resorption as compared with nonfortified equivalent foods.

Vitamin D supplementation in obese type 2 diabetes subjects in Ajman, UAE: a randomized controlled double-blinded clinical trial
TL;DR: Six months of vitamin D3 supplementation to vitamin D-deficient obese type 2 diabetes patients in the UAE normalized the vitamin D status and reduced the incidence of eucalcemic parathyroid hormone elevation but showed no effect on the metabolic control.

Low Vitamin D Status Is an Independent Predictor of Increased Frailty and All-Cause Mortality in Older Men: The Health in Men Study

TL;DR: Hypovitaminosis D is associated with prevalent and incident frailty in older men and predicts all-cause mortality, independent of frailty, and the association between vitamin D and mortality is not solely dependent on the occurrence ofFrailty.

TL;DR: A system for grading the quality of evidence and the strength of recommendations that can be applied across a wide range of interventions and contexts is developed, and a summary of the approach from the perspective of a guideline user is presented.

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.

Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium and Vitamin D
TL;DR: The evidence supported a role for these nutrients in bone health but not in other health conditions, and there is emerging evidence that too much of these nutrients may be harmful.
