Vitamin D Deficiency and Coronary Artery Calcification in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes by pirzahoor is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and coronary artery calcification (CAC) in individuals with type 1 diabetes, finding that 25[OH]D deficiency is associated with a higher prevalence and progression of CAC. Among 374 participants, 65% had normal vitamin D levels, while 10% were deficient, with deficiency predicting CAC presence and development. The findings suggest that vitamin D status may be an important factor in cardiovascular health for those with type 1 diabetes.
