Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
Purpose of review: To highlight recently published data about the vitamin D status of athletes, and effect of vitamin D supplementation on muscle strength and performance in the athletic population. The vitamin D receptor exists in skeletal muscle, and muscle weakness has been reported in individuals who are severely deficient [25(OH)D <25 nmol/l]. Experimental findings reveal the cellular and genomic mechanisms implicating vitamin D in muscle mass, strength and function, and raise questions about the role of vitamin D in the achievement of optimum athletic performance. Recent findings: Athletes appear to have the same risk of vitamin D deficiency and seasonal variance in status as nonathletic members of the same population, with the exception of athletes who train and compete indoors whose risk of deficiency is somewhat greater. Interventions with vitamin D supplements have had mixed results, with a positive effect on muscle function observed only in participants with insufficient status [25(OH)D <50 nmol/l]. Summary: There have been relatively few robust interventions with vitamin D supplementation in athletic populations who are vitamin D deficient, and none which have been able to establish the ideal 25(OH)D concentration for optimum performance.
