A novel approach for prediction of vitamin d status using support vector regression.
<h4>Background</h4>Epidemiological evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency is linked to various chronic diseases. However direct measurement of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration, the accepted biomarker of vitamin D status, may not be feasible in large epidemiological...

<h4>Background</h4>Epidemiological evidence suggests that vitamin D deficiency is linked to various chronic diseases.
