OBJECTIVE This study was designed to determine mean serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density (BMD), to find the cutoff of parathormone (PTH) elevation, and to evaluate the correlation 25OHD with BMD, biochemical parameters and vertebral fracture presence. METHODS Transversal study, with collection of 25OHD and PTH, and determination of DMO and column radiograph. RESULTS A high incidence of inadequate serum concentrations of 25OHD (68.3%) was found and 8% of secondary hyperparathyreoidism. No significant differences were found between 25OHD serum concentrations and the evaluated parameters, except for PTH, which showed a negative association. The established cutoff was 61.5 nmol/L. CONCLUSIONS The elevated incidence of hipovitaminosis D in elderly women with low BMD suggests that a systematic evaluation of 25OHD serum concentrations must be done for this population.The use of 61.5 nmol/L as a cutoff is recommended until the realization of an epidemiologic study that represents all Rio de Janeiro city (RJ, Brazil).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006962 Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary Abnormally elevated PARATHYROID HORMONE secretion as a response to HYPOCALCEMIA. It is caused by chronic KIDNEY FAILURE or other abnormalities in the controls of bone and mineral metabolism, leading to various BONE DISEASES, such as RENAL OSTEODYSTROPHY. Secondary Hyperparathyroidism,Hyperparathyroidisms, Secondary,Secondary Hyperparathyroidisms
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.
