    (a) Individual changes in 25(OH)D and corresponding PTH levels at baseline and 6 months after AED therapy. (b) The mean and SEM of the 25(OH)D levels and their corresponding PTH levels at baseline and 6 months after AED therapy. The categorization into three groups 25(OH)D deficiency (Gr-1), sufficiency (Gr-2) and replete state (Gr-3) are based on the 25(OH)D levels at the end of AED therapy.
