Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Levels and the Prevalence of Peripheral Arterial
Disease. Results from NHANES 2001 to 2004 - Arterioscler Thromb Vasc
Biol. 2008 Apr 16 - "After multivariable adjustment
for demographics, comorbidities, physical activity level, and laboratory
measures, the prevalence ratio of PAD for the lowest, compared to the
highest, 25(OH)D quartile (<17.8 and >/=29.2 ng/mL, respectively) was 1.80
(95% confidence interval: 1.19, 2.74). For each 10 ng/mL lower 25(OH)D
level, the multivariable-adjusted prevalence ratio of PAD was 1.35 (95%
confidence interval: 1.15, 1.59). CONCLUSIONS: Low serum 25(OH)D levels are
associated with a higher prevalence of PAD"
