Vitamin D status during pregnancy and the risk of subsequent postpartum depression: a case-control study.

Epidemiological studies have provided evidence of an association between vitamin D insufficiency and depression and other mood disorders, and a role for vitamin D in various brain functions has been suggested. We hypothesized that low vitamin D status during pregnancy might increase the risk of post...
