Leukocyte hCAP-18 mRNA expression in patients with enrollment 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels below (n = 29) versus above (n = 29) the median level of 17 ng/ml. Bars represent median (25th–75th interquartile range). hCAP-18 = human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide 18. A 1.0-fold elevation is equivalent to no change.
