Is There Association between Vitamin D Concentrations and Body Mass Index Variation in Women Submitted to Y-Roux Surgery?

Conclusion: Women submitted to bariatric surgery (RYGB) around three years ago had higher BMI and vitamin D deficiency, along with hyperparathyroidism, compared to the control group. There was no association between variables related to body composition and 25(OH)D concentrations. On the other hand, vitamin concentrations correlated negatively to BMI variation after undergoing surgery. PMID: 29854436 [PubMed - in process]
