Different mechanism of bone loss in ageing women and men in Khon Kaen Province
The changes of vitamin D status and biochemical markers of bone turnover have been reported with aging. In this study we determined age-related levels of vitamin D and biochemical markers of bone turnover in the general adult population between the ages of 20 and 84 years who were living in Khon Kae...

The changes of vitamin D status and biochemical markers of bone turnover have been reported with aging. In this study we determined age-related levels of vitamin D and biochemical markers of bone turnover in the general adult population between the ages of 20 and 84 years who were living in Khon Kaen province in northeastern Thailand. Serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D was determined as an indicator of vitamin D status. Serum total alkaline phosphatase and N-terminal mid fragment osteocalcin were measured as biochemical markers of bone formation and serum C-terminal fragment of type I collagen was measured as a marker of bone resorption. The levels of serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D were high in the Khon Kaen population. Men had higher levels of 25 hydroxyvitamin D than did women. However, there were no changes with age in either sex.
