title: Vitamin D and thyrotropin in type 2 diabetic patients.
abstract: Vitamin D status and thyroid function may be related. Using our data from two previous studies in type 2 diabetic patients, we found slightly higher serum thyrotropin levels in patients with vitamin D deficiency (at the limit of statistical significance) and no effect of correction of vitamin D deficiency in serum thyrotropin levels.
