What is an electrolyte abnormality due to Thiazide diuretics? Hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis
How does vitamin D deficiency cause hypophosphatemia? Decreasing intestinal absorption of phosphate and increasing urinary phosphate excretion
Is vitamin D deficiency associated with low or high serum phosphate levels? Low phosphate levels in serum
