Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) has been associated with adverse maternal and foetal outcomes and is determined by measuring 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D). The 25(OH)D is catabolized to 24, 25-(OH) 2D and the ratio of 25(OH) D to 24, 25-(OH)2D, the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR), is thought to be a superior marker of VDD, being elevated in such states. The aims of this study were to assess the longitudinal vitamin D status of pregnant women by...
