| Core Tip |
This retrospective study investigates the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in prostate cancer patients who received treatment in Southern California, a region characterized by high annual sun exposure. It underscores the high deficiency rates among advanced-stage disease patients, as well as Hispanic and Black patients. The study also assesses the impact of androgen deprivation therapy on vitamin D and concludes that there is no substantial change in response to treatment. These results provide evidence for routine screening and supplementation of vitamin D, particularly in high-risk subgroups, and challenges the notion that sun exposure alone guarantees adequate vitamin D levels. |
