Biochemical profile of individuals with high serum calcium (>10.7 mg/liter) or high 25-OHD (>60 ng/ml) at 8 wk in the short-term study

Variable unit	Subject	Treatment	Calcium (mg/dl)	25-OHD (ng/ml)	1,25-OHD (pg/ml)
High calcium	Male	Placebo	11.4	50	75
	Male	Placebo	10.9	26	50
	Femalea	Sigma	10.8	78	91
High 25-OHD	Female	Vigantol	10.3	96	57
	Male	Sigma	9.9	86	70
	Femalea	Sigma	10.8	78	91

Biochemical assays are reported in metric units. To convert from metric to SI units, multiply calcium by 0.25 (millimoles per liter); 25-OHD by 2.496 (nanomoles per liter); and 1,25-OHD by 2.6 (picomoles per liter). 

^aSubject with concomitant high calcium and high 25-OHD.
