Popis: Introduction: In Thailand, the assessment of vitamin D status by measuring 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D] levels in individuals at risk for osteoporosis is constrained by limited facilities and high costs. This study aimed to create a clinical model for predicting vitamin D deficiency in women with osteoporosis or risk factors for osteoporosis. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 490 women. All participants had 25(OH)D levels measured. A questionnaire was used to assess factors related to vitamin D status. Vitamin D deficiency was defined as 25(OH)D levels
