Summary Objective Low 25‐hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels may be associated with both
sarcopenia (the age‐related decline in muscle mass and function) and low physical activity …

The age-related change in hormone concentrations has been hypothesized to play a role in
the loss of muscle mass and muscle strength with aging, also called sarcopenia. The aim of …

An unexplained loss of muscle strength occurs with aging. Vitamin D deficiency can cause
myopathy and administration of 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1, 25-(OH2) D3] to persons with …

Objective Recent reports suggest that vitamin D status influences musculoskeletal health;
yet, there are limited data in adult men. This study investigated whether serum 25 …

Objective To examine whether low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentration were
associated with low muscle strength while taking into account the effects of potential …

Context: Vitamin D deficiency is common among older people and can cause mineralization
defects, bone loss, and muscle weakness. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate …

Context: Vitamin D is known to influence muscle health. A reduction in muscle mass
increases the risk of functional limitations among older individuals. Objective: The aim of this …

Background Vitamin D may improve muscle strength through a highly specific nuclear
receptor in muscle tissue. Objectives We investigated whether there is an association …

Results: In total, 53% of the participants had a serum 25 (OH) D level below 50 nmol/l. After
adjustment for confounding factors, 25 (OH) D status was associated with ALM (β= 0.012, P …

Background To explore the associations between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25D) and 1,
25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1, 25D) levels at baseline and incidence of sarcopenia over time in …
