Association between vitamin levels and geriatric hip fractures: A cross-sectional study
Vitamin D deficiency is common in elderly people with or without fracture. The levels of VitA, VitB9, and VitK1, instead of VitD, were much lower in fracture patients than in the healthy control, even controlling age and gender. VitA is a potential target for hip fracture prevention.
