Abstract

Our goal in this cross-sectional study was to investigate the influence of low-vitamin D status on bone mass, bone turnover, and muscle strength in 301 healthy Chinese adolescent girls. Blood plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] was measured by RIA and plasma and urine biomarkers of bone turnover were measured. Bone mineral content (BMC) and density and bone area for the whole body and the distal and proximal forearm were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. When vitamin D deficiency was defined as a serum 25(OH)D concentration of ≤50 nmol/L and severe deficiency as
