Annweiler C et al. – 25–Hydroxyvitamin D deficiency was associated with cognitive impairment in this cohort of community–dwelling older women.

Exclusive Author Commentary
C. Annweiler, 10/07/09

Vitamin D recently exhibited multiple non-skeletal biological targets. This original study emphasizes its neurosteroid regulatory function by highlighting an association between vitamin D deficiency and global cognitive impairment assessed with Short Portable Mental State Questionnaire. It is not only a relevant new orientation of research, but also an additional argument for prescribing vitamin D in older deficient adults.
