However, rickets can be considered the tipof the vitamin D–deficiency iceberg. In fact, vitaminD deficiency remains common in children and adults. In uteroand during childhood, vitamin D deficiency can cause growthretardation and skeletal deformities and may increase the riskof hip fracture later in life. Vitamin D deficiency in adultscan precipitate or exacerbate osteopenia and osteoporosis, causeosteomalacia and muscle weakness, and increase the . . . [Full Text of this Article]
