Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin d and the longitudinal risk of sepsis in the REGARDS cohort..

Data from the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke study was used. Findings reveals that, among community-dwelling US adults, low plasma 25(OH)D measured at a time of relative health was independently associated with increased risk of sepsis.
