ABSTRACT

Vitamin D deficiency is common in human immunodeficiency virus–tuberculosis coinfected patients in Cape Town. Those who develop tuberculosis-immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome have a further reduction in circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels 2 weeks into combined antiretroviral therapy with a concomitant increase in inflammatory cytokines and chemokines.
