not become calcified (Guyton and Hall‚ 2001). Consequently‚ the newly formed‚ uncalcified osteoid gradually takes the place of other bone that is being reabsorbed. During the later stages of rickets‚ the serum calcium level falls precipitously‚ and tetany (neuromuscular spasm) develops. In infants and young children‚ a long-standing calcium intake deficiency‚ in association with suboptimal vitamin D exposure‚ can produce rickets. Indeed‚ in experimental animals and in humans with extremely low vitamin
