Abstract
The threshold for 25OHD at the point of maximal suppression of PTH estimated in this study was lower than the suggested threshold of vitamin D deficiency in the literature, perhaps due to race or assay differences, and the relationship between vitamin D and PTH changed with sex and age. Standardization in the methodology of searching for the optimal break-point is desirable so that a consensus on cutoff points can be obtained.
