A secondary purpose was to identify a clinical biomarker for vitamin D deficiency. This study showed that vitamin D deficiency was prevalent in patients with sleep disorders and chronic nonspecific musculoskeletal pain.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Researchers enrolled 153 consecutive patients who admitted to the presence of chronic nonspecific musculoskeletal pain during a comprehensive sleep evaluation at a specialist sleep medicine clinic within an academic center. Venous blood sampling was performed for determination of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The mean serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level was 19.8 \u00b1 11.1, with 54% of the study population having vitamin D deficiency. This mean 25-hydroxyvitamin D level was lower than that observed historically in healthy controls, and was either similar or lower than in all but one representative historical cohort formed on the basis of chronic nonspecific musculoskeletal pain.<a href=\"#footnote_1_608\" id=\"identifier_11_608\" class=\"footnote-link footnote-identifier-link\" title=\"McCarty DE, Reddy A, Keigley Q, Kim PY, Cohen S, Marino AA.

Clinically, he looked like he had severe pyogenic infection. He failed to respond to multiple courses of wide-spectrum antibiotics. Repeated cultures from muscle lesions and from the blood were negative. Hospital course was very hectic and life threatening at times. Upon further questioning, the patient gave a history of frequent loose-bowel movements for many years. A duodenal biopsy with villous blunting and positive antigliadin antibodies confirmed the diagnosis of celiac disease. The patient had complete recovery and remained in remission on a gluten-free diet.<a href=\"#footnote_6_608\" id=\"identifier_12_608\" class=\"footnote-link footnote-identifier-link\" title=\"Alawneh K, Ashley C, Carlson JA.
