Table 3 The relationship of Vitamin D2 and D3 to diabetes complications in the cohort of subjects with Type 2 Diabetes (n = 274). The actual number of diabetic patients per measure are detailed and may not add up to 274 due to missing values when the vitamin D levels were at the lower limit of detection then as they could not be accurately determined they were excluded from the analysis
