Calcitriol promotes survival of experimental random pattern flap via activation of autophagy.

American journal of translational research

Chen L, Zhou K, Chen H, Li S, Lin D, Zhou D.
PMID: 28861155

The pandemic increase in obesity is inversely associated with vitamin D levels. While a higher BMI was causally related to lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), no evidence was obtained for a BMI lowering effect by higher 25(OH)D. Some of the...
