Abstract | AIMS: METHODS: RESULTS: Patients had significantly elevated fasting glucose (P=0.0001), insulin (P=0.0003) and HbA1c (P=0.0005) than the controls had. They had significantly raised calculated insulin resistance compared with control subjects (P=0.0001). Patients and controls had similar levels of serum corrected calcium and ALP, whereas serum phosphate was significantly lower in the patients compared with controls (P=0.001). Patients and controls had similar levels of 25( OH)D, but the levels of 25( OH)D in both were in the deficiency range. Intact PTH was similar in the patients and controls. Levels of 25( OH)D did not demonstrate any relation with fasting insulin, insulin resistance, or HbA1c, but correlated negatively with intact PTH (r=-0.4, P=0.02). CONCLUSION:
