Hypothesis-generating for vitamin D in CAD; does not support practice change without randomized trials.
Researchers have discovered new inflammatory markers like vitamin d, which is a fat-soluble vitamin playing a vital role in numerous physiological processes apart from its importance calcium homeostasis. [4]Several mechanisms that contribute to progression of cardiovascular diseases include its anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, and anti-hypertensive properties, as well as its ability to modulate endothelial function and vascular calcification.
