Background In cross-sectional studies, low serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D are
associated with higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and disease. This study
aimed to determine whether endogenous 25-hydroxyvitamin D and 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin
D levels are related to all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Methods Prospective cohort
study of 3258 consecutive male and female patients (mean [SD] age, 62 [10] years)
