Response to Dr. Rutten's comment on “Serum magnesium and not vitamin D is associated with better QoL in COPD: A cross-sectional study”

Response to Dr. Rutten's comment on “Serum magnesium and not vitamin D is associated with better QoL in COPD: A cross-sectional study”

Concerning the use of univariate correlations to show the relationships between nutrients and lung function or QoL without correction for other factors, we have explained that serum vitamin D was measured as 25-(OH)-D3 as it reflects the concentration of both sunlight-induced synthesis and intake of...
