Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic led to changes in lifestyle, which could influence vitamin D status on a population level. The purpose of our study was to compare 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels in patients hospitalized because of severe COVID-19 during two waves of the pandemic (2020/21 vs. 2021/22).Materials and methods: We analyzed 101 patients (61 males/ 40 females) hospitalized in the internal medicine department of...

Introduction: Patients with acromegaly, despite normal or even high bone mineral density (BMD), have prevalent vertebral fractures (VFs). HR-pQCT studies in acromegaly have proposed that impaired trabecular bone microarchitecture possibly plays a role in fragility fracture development. As such, we hypothesized that trabecular bone score (TBS) would be low in patients with acromegaly.Aim of the study: To compare BMD and TBS in acromegaly patients with and...

Introduction: Patients suffering from acromegaly, despite normal or even higher bone mineral density (BMD), have prevalent vertebral fractures (VFs). Impaired bone microarchitecture is involved fragility fracture development, but vitamin D status could be involved in this impairment.Aim of the study: Comparison of bone parameters such as BMD, trabecular bone score (TBS) and 3D-SHAPER parameters in acromegaly patients according to level of 25(OH)D3.<p...

Objectives: There is no consensus about specific serum 25(OH)D levels associated with higher risk of severe outcome in COVID-19 patients. According to the literature patients with serum 25(OH)D levels < 12 ng/ml are clearly deficient at all ages. Our aim was to assess COVID-19 mortality in the settings of severe 25(OH)D deficiency.Methods: A cohort study of 357 COVID-19 patients was conducted. Subjects were monitored until discharge or in-hospital de...
