Zusammenfassung:A two-year double-blind study monitored and evaluated the effects of 1α-hydroxy vitamin D3 (1α(OH)D3) on the lumbar (L2-4BMD) and total body bone mineral densities (TBBMD) and occurrence of fracture in 113 female osteoporotic patients receiving 0.75μg/day of 1α(OH)D3 (n=57) or a placebo (n=56) with calcium supplementation in both groups. L2-4BMD increased 1.81% and 2.32% after one and 2 years in the 1α(OH)D3 group, but decreased 1.89% (P
