The Effect of Single High Dose of Vitamin D on Serum Levels of Its Metabolites

Name
042021082021
Description
The aim of this interventional study is to assess the effect of the single high dose of vitamin D on its serum metabolites in elderly. The main questions it attempts to answer is: 1. what is the effect of a single, high, oral dose of vitamin D3 (120,000 IU) on serum 25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D2, 24,25(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25(OH)D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, 24,25(OH)2D3/25(OH)D3 ratio, and 25(OH)D3/3-epi-25(OH)D3 ratio concentration at baseline, 3 days and 7 days after administration, compared to control group. 2. what is the influence of percentage of fat tissue on serum metabolites of vitamin D and their changes after bolus dose, compared to control group.
