DOIAbstract
Existing studies usually do not measure the free vitamin D in pediatric patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and not consider the effect of inflammation on vitamin D levels. The aim of our study was to evaluate the concentrations of vitamin D binding protein (VDBP), total and free 25(OH)D, and to correlate these values with the disease activity markers
