ABSTRACT
Erjaee H, Sadeghi Sarvestani MV, Honarmand M, Nazifi S., Associations between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3
with calcium, phosphorus and parathyroid hormone in male and female
horses, Onl J Vet Res., 27 (11): 612-617,
2023.We report correlation between serum calcium, phosphorous, parathytroid hormone, (PTH) and Vitamin 25(OH)D3
in 15 male and 45 female horses. Females and males were isolated by serum 25(OH) D3
concentrations of <20;
20-40 and >40 ng/ml and found no difference between
male and female serum calcium, phosphorous, 25(OH)D3 or parathyroid
hormone. We found no correlation between serum phosphorus and 25(OH) D3 concentrations
in any group but we did find significant inverse
correlation between serum calcium and vitamin 25(OH)D3
(r= -0.348; P < 0.01). We
found no differences with serum phosphorus, parathyroid hormone but did find
that in females with highest vitamin 3D (>40ng/ml) compared with those with
low vitamin 3D (<20) had ~6% higher (P < 0.05) calcium whereas in males
was ~9% higher (P < 0.05). We found no correlations between serum 25(OH)D3 and parathyroid hormone levels.
Key Words: Parathyroid hormone, Calcium,
Phosphorous, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3.
