A linear regression was performed. The model was adjusted for participant age, current smoking habits, BMI, dyslipidemia, hypertension, vitamin D intake, duration of diabetes and use of anti-osteoporosis medication. 25(OH)D, vitamin D deficiency and blood lead level were independent variables, and bone turnover markers and metabolic factors were dependent variables. 25(OH)D, blood lead level, P1NP, N-MID osteocalcin, β-CTX and triglycerides were natural logarithm-transformed. The bold indicates P < 0.05.
25(OH)D, 25-hydroxy vitamin D; CTX, collagen type 1 C-telopeptide; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein; and P1NP, procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide.
