Zusammenfassung:Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate whether vitamin D [25-(OH) D 3 ] status affects serum IGF-I concentrations in healthy subjects. Design and patients: Two hundred and forty-one consecutive healthy subjects were included in the present study. Measurements: Serum IGF-I and 25-(OH) D 3 concentrations. Results: As expected, serum IGF-I concentrations progressively decreased with age (r=−0.55, p
