Abstract: Based on the "Second National Report on Biochemical Indicators of Diet and Nutrition in the US Population" from CDC in 2012, 10.5% of the population over 1-year-old were vitamin B6 deficient (plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate < 20 nM). We hypothesize that gender, age, food preparation, and disease conditions could affect the intake and/or the availability of vitamin B6.

Abstract: To compare the circulation levels of hormones related with bone metabolism in a cohort of patients with chronic kidney disease in stage 3-5 who were treated by ergocalciferol (VitD2) or calcitriol (aVitD3). The blood levels of bone metabolism hormones change significantly after vitamin D agents' therapy. Ergocalciferol supplementation treatment can increase blood levels of 25(OH) D and BMP-7 much more than calcitriol. Improving 25(OH) D insufficiency can suppress the endocrine of FGF-23.
