Correlation Between Serum 25(OH)D and Abdominal Visceral Fat Area in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the Context of different Bone Mass
To investigate the correlation between serum levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] and the visceral fat area of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the context of different bone mass. A total of 180 patients with T2DM were randomly selected for bone mineral density (BMD) examination....

Summary: | To investigate the correlation between serum levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] and the visceral fat area of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the context of different bone mass.
A total of 180 patients with T2DM were randomly selected for bone mineral density (BMD) examination. According to the results, they were divided into three groups: T2DM normal bone group (group A); T2DM bone mass reduction group (group B); T2DM osteoporosis group (group C).
Serum 25(OH)D levels in NC group, A group, B group and C group decreased in turn, and Visceral fat area (VFA) in group B and group C were significantly higher than those in group A and NC [(29.41±4.87)
