  1. Rationale and study design. Myrlene A. Staten, MD
  2. Recruitment, retention, and baseline characteristics. Erin S. Leblanc, MD, MPH
  3. Outcomes. Anastassios G. Pittas, MD, MS


The D2d trial is of particular interest due to a growing body of evidence which suggests that glucose and insulin metabolism may have farther-reaching effects on health and nutrition than previously thought. There now appears to be a greater understanding as to why so many patients with type 2 diabetes have vitamin D deficiency, and we need to determine if it's causative or as a result of insulin resistance.
