Impact of Correction of Vitamin D Deficiency in Oxidative Stress in Patients With Prediabetes (VICOX) (VICOX)

Impact of Correction of Vitamin D Deficiency in Oxidative Stress in Patients With Impaired Glucose Tolerance: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial

The investigators aim to determine the effect of the correction of vitamin D in vitamin D deficient patients (<15ng/ml) in oxidative stress and insulin resistance in patients with impaired glucose tolerance. Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with chronic low-grade inflammation, diabetes mellitus type 2, cardiovascular risk and increased prevalence of coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and myocardial infarction.
