Stress fractures in the Israeli defense forces from 1995 to 1996. Givon U, Friedman E, Reiner A, Vered I, Finestone A, Shemer J. Clin Orthop Relat Res. 2000 Apr;(373):227-32. PMID: 10810481 Serum levels of bone specific alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin were elevated in patients with high grade stress fractures compared with control subjects with no symptoms: 37.6 versus 26.2 units/L, and 10.8 versus 8.8 ng/mL, respectively. Levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D were lower in patients with high grade stress fractures (25.3 ng/mL) than in control subjects (29.8 ng/mL). This study revealed that several parameters can distinguish soldiers with high grade stress fractures, but their predictive value and precise pathogenetic role remain unclear.

25-hydroxyvitamin D and risk of myocardial infarction in men: a prospective study. Giovannucci E, Liu Y, Hollis BW, Rimm EB. Arch Intern Med. 2008 Jun 9;168(11):1174-80. PMID: 18541825 Conclusion Low levels of 25(OH)D are associated with higher risk of myocardial infarction in a graded manner, even after controlling for factors known to be associated with coronary artery disease.

Vitamin D receptor expression in normal, premalignant, and malignant human lung tissue. Menezes RJ, Cheney RT, Husain A, Tretiakova M, Loewen G, Johnson CS, Jayaprakash V, Moysich KB, Salgia R, Reid ME. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2008 May;17(5):1104-10. PMID: 18483332 doi: 10.1158/1055-9965.EPI-07-2713 onclusions: VDR expression spanned the lung carcinogenesis spectrum. Nuclear expression was similar across various histologies, whereas cytoplasmic expression decreased with increasing histologic grade. These results indicate that there is potential for the use of calcitriol as a chemopreventive agent against the development of lung cancer. (Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2008;17(5):1104-10)
