Are vitamin D receptor agonists like angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors without side effects?

abstract：:Risk factors for disease states are rigorously defined. This analysis considers the definition of a risk factor as applied to the question of whether the serum phosphorus level is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Observational studies strongly suggest that phosphorus is associated with cardiovascular risk, an...
