“…In haemodialysis patients, similarly, it has been demonstrated that some patients may remain vitamin D deficient despite even IV vitamin D replacement therapy [30]. Similar findings have been published for peritoneal dialysis patients remaining in calcitriol and/or calcidiol deficient despite replacement therapy [31]. These findings may be due to increased rate of consumption or insufficient dosage but we believe that further studies certainly are needed to clarify the underlying mechanism.…”

“…This has been demonstrated in a number of studies, including predialysis [9], hemodialysis (HD) [10], and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients [11]. Taskapan et al [12] evaluated 25(OH)D3 levels in 273 chronic PD patients by a cross-sectional, multicenter study, which is the most comprehensive study in the literature and has been supported by other studies showing low 25(OH)D3 levels in PD patients [12][13][14][15].…”

“…In the study by Dobnig et al 2 which excluded patients with chronic kidney disease, mean PTH levels were 36% higher in the group with the lowest 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels. 19,20 Similarly, no correlation was detected in our analyses evaluating PTH and vitamin D level. Vitamin D defi ciency has been associated with low bone mineral density and an increased risk for fracture.…”

“…Studies conducted in dialysis patients have also yielded confl icting results. 13,19 In our analyses of dialysis patients, we were able to detect a weak positive association between albumin and vitamin D level.…”
