Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: Increased vitamin D concentration in the supplemented group and improved cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength after 60 days of supplementation. Evaluation will be performed on the first day of recruitment and 60 days later. To check the increase in vitamin D concentration is used the method of electroluminescence and to verify the improvement of cardiorespiratory fitness will be used ergo spirometer test and analyze muscle strength dynamometry the scapular test and manual will be done. For determining the expected outcome were taken into account the 95% confidence intervals and alpha of 0.05, obtaining a minimum required aostra 50 twins and 50 Monozygotic dizigotos twins. Which will be distributed as follows: group 1, 25 twins and 25 Monozygotic twins dizigotos, in group 2, 25 twins and 25 Monozygotic dizigotos twins. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: To assess the concentration of vitamin D in both groups meets the nutritional recommendations for the study population and influence in cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength. For finding the expected outcomes, the difference between the value established as normal and the value found in each group evaluated before and after supplementation is considered. | — |
