Abstract
- In this extensive Review, Stefan Pilz and colleagues discuss the potential mechanisms by which vitamin D might affect blood pressure and explore the clinical evidence for an association between vitamin D and arterial hypertension. The authors also make recommendations for vitamin D supplementation in patients with hypertension and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels below target values.
