Calcium supplementation amongst postmenopausal women: effect on serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium level
This study assessed the effect of calcium supplementation towards the change in serum calcium, phosphorus and magnesium level. We carried out a randomized controlled trial of calcium supplementation in 113 postmenopausal women for 24 months period study. Subjects were randomly assigned into two grou...
