Abstract
We asked this question: in normal humans, is either a normal dietary intake or normal serum concentration of phosphorus a determinant of the serum concentration of 1,25(OH)2D? In seven normal men whose dietary phosphorus was decreased from 2,300 to 625 mg/d, each intake for 8-9 d, under strictly controlled, normal metabolic conditions, we measured serum concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D daily, and concentrations of phosphorus hourly throughout a 24-h period, before and after restriction. Decreasing dietary phosphorus induced: (a) a 58% increase in serum levels of 1,25(OH)2D; (b) a 35% decrease in serum levels of phosphorus measured in the afternoon; (c) a 12% decrease in the 24-h mean serum level of phosphorus; but, (d) no decrease in morning fasting levels of phosphorus. Serum concentrations of 1,25(OH)2D varied inversely and significantly with 24-h mean concentrations of phosphorus (r = -0.77, P less than 0.001). When these data are combined with those of our prior study in which dietary phosphorus was varied over an extreme range, the relationship between serum levels of 1,25(OH)2D and 24-h mean serum levels of phosphorus is even stronger (r = -0.90, P less than 0.001). In the aggregate, the results demonstrate that in normal men, dietary phosphorus throughout a normal range and beyond, can finely regulate the renal production and serum concentration of 1,25(OH)2D, and provide evidence that this regulation is mediated by fine modulation of the serum concentration of phosphorus.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
