Vitamin D and cancer: an historical overview of the epidemiology and mechanisms
This is a narrative review of the evidence supporting vitamin D's anticancer actions. The first
section reviews the findings from ecological studies of cancer with respect to indices of solar
radiation, which found a reduced risk of incidence and mortality for approximately 23 types
of cancer. Meta-analyses of observational studies reported the inverse correlations of serum
25-hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] with the incidence of 12 types of cancer. Case-control
studies with a 25 (OH) D concentration measured near the time of cancer diagnosis are …
