  1. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels of 20 ng/ml or less were defined as vitamin D deficiency. Multivariate analysis was performed with factors associated with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels deficiency by univariate analysis (p < 0.10). We defined the cases that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels were measured between November and April as cold season
