14 patients receiving small doses of predisolone and 7 high doses were divided at random into three groups. Each group received for four weeks, 100 microgram of vitamin D2 or 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 or 5,6 trans-25 hydroxyvitamin D3. The 25 hydroxy and 5,6 trans-25 hydroxyvitamine D3 were able to increase intestinal calcium absorption. 25 Hydroxyvitamin D3 had an osteolytic action, increasing urine calcium and hydroxyproline and, once, in a patient slight hypercalcemia was observed. By constrast, 5,6 trans-25 hydroxyvitamin D3 decreased PTH and caused a significant decrease in urine hydroxyproline.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
