Abstract

Different diabetes complications were associated with differing vitamin D parameters, with diabetic retinopathy related to lower 25(OH)D<sub>3</sub> and 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> levels, hypertension significantly associated with lower 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub>, while dyslipidemia was associated with lower 25(OH)D<sub>3</sub>, 1,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3</sub> and 24,25(OH)<sub>2</sub>D<sub>3.</sub> While 25(OH)D metabolites were lower in females, there was not an exaggeration in complications.
