Decrease in serum calcitriol (but not free 25-hydroxyvitamin D) concentration in hip fracture healing
Objective To assess the decrease in serum calcitriol concentrations after hip fracture. Methods Serum concentrations of calcitriol, 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), directly measured free 25(OH)D, and indices of bone formation were measured in elderly patients with hip fracture (HF) and patients...

Zusammenfassung: | Objective
To assess the decrease in serum calcitriol concentrations after hip fracture.
Methods
Serum concentrations of calcitriol, 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), directly measured free 25(OH)D, and indices of bone formation were measured in elderly patients with hip fracture (HF) and patients with elective hip replacement (EHR) at admission and after 7 weeks.
Results
A total of 45 patients with HF and 17 patients with EHR completed this prospective study. Baseline serum calcitriol levels were ≤ 60 pmol/l in 26% of the HF patients. After 7 weeks, they significantly decreased (
