Objectives: To investigate the impact of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) on cortical and trabecular microarchitecture, and bone strength in adolescents; using High Resolution peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HRpQCT) and microfinite element analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first study in children, assessing the impact of T1DM on skeletal microstructure and strength using HRpQCT.Methods: We recruited 22 patients aged 1216 years wit...

Low circulating levels of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) have been reported in obese people of different ethnicities in several countries. Low total 25OHD in obesity could be due to lower binding proteins (with normal free 25OHD), lower dietary intake or sunlight exposure, greater volume of distribution (pool size) or more rapid metabolic clearance.The aims of this study were to determine if free 25OHD and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2...
