What level in the blood may be increased osteomalacia and fracture healing?

Vitamin D

- Osteomalacia refers to a condition where the mineralization of newly formed osteoid is abnormal.

- Fractures are known to be more common in osteomalacia.

- Vitamin D promotes the absorption of calcium from the gastrointestinal tract. With its deficiency, the absorption of calcium is reduced, leading to abnormal mineralization.
