The association of serum vitamin D concentration and ventricular dysfunction among patients with acute coronary syndrome
Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management Nov 15, 2017
Khademvatani K, et al. - Researchers ascertained whether vitamin D deficiency correlated with higher odds of left ventricular dysfunction among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and, if so, they sought to investigate if this link was mediated by increased inflammation as measured by C-reactive protein (CRP) and white blood cell count (WBC). A connection was brought to light between vitamin D deficiency with higher odds of ventricular dysfunction. In order to affirm this data and to gauge the role of vitamin D supplementation therapy in preventing ventricular dysfunction in a select patient cohort, advanced research was warranted.
