Prediction of Bone Mass Density Variation by Bone Remodeling Markers in Postmenopausal Women with Vitamin D Insufficiency Treated with Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation

The aim of this study was to determine whether early changes in bone markers could predict long-term response in bone mineral density (BMD) after calcium (500 mg) and vitamin D (400 IU) supplementation twice daily in ambulatory elderly women with vitamin D insufficiency (25-hydroxyvitamin D,
