5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Vitamin D has pleiotropic effects. Burn patients are at risk of hypovitaminosis D and may experience post-injury osteopenia and sarcopenia. Investigators hypothesized that vitamin D supplementation during one year can improve bone and muscle health in post-burn period.
