Evaluation of Vitamin D3 level in Sino-nasal Polypi
Background: Vitamin D is a group of fat-soluble corticosteroid responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, magnesium, and phosphate, and multiple other biological effects. In humans, the most important compounds in this group are vitamin D3 [also known as cholecalciferol] and vitami...
