The link between vitamin D deficiency and death is a defective activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (calcitriol, the vitamin D hormone) to induce/repress genes that maintain mineral homeostasis and skeletal integrity, and prevent secondary hyperparathyroidism, hypertension, immune disorders, and renal and cardiovascular (CV) damage.
Drug-induced CV side effects are undesirable because they may cause long-term CV damage, which puts the patient at greater risk of mortality and morbidity.
