Association between serum 25(OH)D3 and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in people with Type 2 diabetes: a community ‐based cohort study

Vitamin D could be considered as a prognostic factor. Future studies are needed to explore whether vitamin D deficiency is a modifiable risk factor in Type 2 diabetes.
