Abstract

The metabolism and actions of vitamin D in human body are nowadays under intensive investigation. Even if a lot are known about its role in the general population, a few are acquainted as for vitamin’s D effects on people who have sustained a spinal cord injury (SCI). Low mobility, poor nutritional supply and the accompanied coherences of SCI individuals makes them predominant for vitamin D deficiency in comparison to able-bodied people. The so far available studies suggest that the decreased vitamin’s D status probably have a negative action mainly on musculoskeletal system but also on cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrine system, leading to difficulties on patients attempt for rehabilitation and return to everyday activities.
