Methods A chart review was undertaken identify aged 18 years more at least one 25-hydroxyvitamin level. When were found be deficient (vitamin Results total 369 (65%) out 570 deficient, 253 treated ergocalciferol or supplements. For baseline supplementation (n = 253), significant differences between follow-up levels (f(i,i20] 11.56, p Conclusions The results this study show that there is very high urban, mostly population. This can readily improved addition oral D. also suggests screening may helpful for detection treatment deficiency, especially urban minority populations.
