4 Kristina L Penniston, 2006(USA) Serum retinyl esters are not elevated in postmenopausal women with and without osteoporosis whose preformed vitamin A intakes are highl Cohort population based GO Retinol /Retinyl esters/NS Total VA /Retinyl esters Females Sentm retinyl esters were not elevated in these postmenopausal women despite intakes of total VA that were nearly two-fold the Recommended Dietary Allowance. How- ever, retinyl ester concentration (percentage of total VA) was marginally associated with osteoporosis marginal decrease BMD

8 J. M. Mala - Granados, 2013(Spain) Vitamin D insufficiency together with high serum levels of vitamin A increases the risk for osteoporosis in postmenopausal women Cross- secbonal 232 Females Bone density measurements revealed that the risk of osteoporosis was -8 times higher in women with the highest retinol levels, as compared with women with the lowest retinol levels. decrease BMD
