    The study analyzed 372 adults with diabetes to assess serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and their relationship with target organ damage.

  • 2

    Serum 25(OH)D levels were inversely associated with peripheral nerve damage and carotid plaque in diabetic patients.

  • 3

    Higher serum 25(OH)D levels correlated with lower odds of cerebral infarction and coronary heart disease after adjustments.

  • 4

    The analysis employed multivariable regression models and sensitivity analyses to examine the associations of serum 25(OH)D.

  • 5

    Findings suggest that lower serum 25(OH)D levels are linked to indicators of diabetes-related target organ damage.
