  • Abstract

    Fatigue is one of the most distressing symptoms in patients with advanced cancer. Previous studies have shown an association between low vitamin D levels and fatigue. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between vitamin D levels and self‐assessed fatigue in cancer patients admitted to palliative care, with focus on possible sex differences.
