Abstract Context The effect of daily vitamin D supplementation on the serum concentration of vitamin D (the parent compound) may offer insight into vitamin D disposition. Objective To assess the total serum vitamin D response to vitamin D3 supplementation and whether it varies according to participant characteristics. To compare results with corresponding results for total serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), which is used clinically and measured in supplementation trials. Design Exploratory study within a randomized trial. Intervention 2,000 International Units of vitamin D3 per day (or matching placebo). Setting Community-based. Participants 161 adults (mean ± SD age 70 ± 6 years; 66% males) with type 2 diabetes. Main Outcome Measures Changes in total serum vitamin D and total serum 25(OH)D concentrations from baseline to year 2. Results At baseline, there was a positive, nonlinear relation between total serum vitamin D and total serum 25(OH)D concentrations. Adjusted effects of supplementation were a 29.2 (95% CI: 24.3, 34.1) nmol/L increase in serum vitamin D and a 33.4 (95% CI: 27.7, 39.2) nmol/L increase in serum 25(OH)D. Among those with baseline 25(OH)D < 50 compared with ≥ 50 nmol/L, the serum vitamin D response to supplementation was attenuated (15.7 vs 31.2 nmol/L; interaction p-value = 0.02), whereas the serum 25(OH)D response was augmented (47.9 vs 30.7 nmol/L; interaction p-value = 0.05). Conclusions Vitamin D3 supplementation increases total serum vitamin D and 25(OH)D concentrations with variation according to baseline 25(OH)D, which suggests that 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 is more efficient when serum 25(OH)D concentration is low.

Abstract Introduction. Vitamin D status is a key determinant of bone health and growth during childhood and adolescence. Therefore, we design a study to find out the association between the levels of serum vitamin D and need to consumption of vitamin D supplement.Method and materials. In this cross sectional study infants under 20 months referred to Ali Asghar Children's Hospital were included. Infants with maternal diseases and congenital malformations were excluded. All infants used vitamin D3 supplementation 400 IU per day from day fifth of birth. The level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D at the age of 1 years (month 12) were measured. Level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D in mothers were checked, too. Furthermore, we defined sufficient level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D ≥30ng/ml.Results. In this study, 68 infants under 20 months were examined. Half of them were boy. Mean age of infants was 16±3 months and mothers was 33±3 years old. In addition, the mean level of serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D in the infants were 40.99±13.86 ng/ml and in mothers were 31.39±13.14 ng/ml. 62.1% of mothers were in sufficient group and also 83% of infants had sufficient vitamin D level (25-hydroxy vitamin D ≥ 30ng/ml). There was not any significant correlation between vitamin D level in infants and mothers (P value=0.965). The mean level of serum vitamin D3 in boys was 39.55±3.79 ng/ml (12-51) and girls was 35.32±3.67 ng/ml (13.4-50). Similarly, significant relationship was not shown between gender and vitamin D of infants (P value = 0.437). Level of vitamin D in second children was significantly higher than first children (P value=0.011). The correlation between gestational age and vitamin D3 deficiency was also insignificant (P value=0.087). Head circumference (r= -0.404, P value=0.014) and age of mothers (r= 0.344, P value=0.04) correlated with vitamin D.Conclusion. In summary, we demonstrated most of the infants had sufficient vitamin D level at the age of 1 year. So it is recommended to continue vitamin D3 supplementation consumption.

The present study was aimed to study the effect of Sublingual Vitamin D3 on Serum Vitamin D level in Vitamin D deficiency patients. This was a cross-sectional and interventional study. All the Vitamin D deficiency patients of age 18-60years and either gender, willing to participate in the study were included. Patients who had greater than 20 ng/ml were excluded from the study. The total number of participants in our study was 200, out of these 111 males and 89 females, the mean age in our study was 51.07 ± 7.39Yrs. All volunteers were given sublingual vitamin D3 (60,000IU) in six doses every fifteen days of follow up for 3 months. The subject’s serum 25(OH)D levels were estimated before and after the treatment of sublingual vitamin D3. There was a statistically significant difference in serum vitamin D3 level before 16.61±6.71 ng/ml and after 35.80±7.80 ng/ml after treatment with Sublingual Vitamin D3. Six doses of 60,000IU of Vitamin D3 sublingual route having improved the role of serum 25(OH)D levels in the treatment of Vitamin D3 deficiency patients.Keywords: Vitamin D3; Sublingual route

Abstract Purpose: To assess the effect of oral vitamin D3 supplementation in dry eye after femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK).Setting: Liuzhou Worker’s Hospital.Design: This prospective study included 90 patients selected between January and December in 2019, who underwent fs-lasik operation in our hospital and had obvious symptoms indicating dry eyes one month after operation. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group (n = 45) received vitamin D3 2000 IU / D continuously for 12 weeks; the control group (n = 45) did not take vitamin D3 orally. Ocular surface disease index(OSDI), tear breakup time(TBUT)and Schirmer’s Test I were evaluated pre-medication and 1,3,6 months after treatment. Serum vitamin D level, and the mean concentration of cytokine IL-6, IL-17, IL-23 in tears were also measured. Results: One month after treatment, the mean OSDI score of the experimental group (11.67 ± 8.53) was significantly lower than that of the control group (23.82 ± 13.22) (P = 0.007). TBUT (10.71±1.02s) and Schirmer I (9.36±0.40mm) of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (7.49±1.29 s and 7.51±0.44 mm). The OSDI (10.25 ± 5.49), TBUT (10.75±1.09 seconds) and Schirmer I test value (11.34±0.39 mm) of the experimental group were significantly lower than those of the control group (20.22±6.23, 8.36±1.23, 8.12±0.50) at 3 months after treatment. There were significant differences in OSDI, TBUT (P < 0.05) and Schirmer I test value between the two groups at 6 months after treatment. Serum vitamin D3 level was negatively correlated with OSDI score (r=-0.90;P=0.00), and positively correlated with Schirmer I test (r=0.88;P=0.00), TBUT score (r=0.89;P=0.00) and TMH (r=0.80;P=0.00). IL-17 level was shown to be significantly correlated with TBUT (r=-0.25, P=0.014) and Schirmer I test (r=-0.21, P=0.018). IL-6 level was significantly correlated with OSDI (R=0.18, P = 0.020) and TBUT (R=0.20, P = 0.019).

Abstract Sarcopenia is an age-related disease with an increased risk of mortality. It is emerging that low serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) affects the sarcopenic state in general, but in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), these associations are not understood although the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency is high in RA. We conducted a cross-sectional study of older female outpatients from our cohort (KURAMA) database. We measured skeletal muscle mass, handgrip strength, and gait-speed to diagnose severe sarcopenia. The serum 25(OH)D concentration was measured using electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. A total of 156 Patients (sarcopenia:44.9%, severe sarcopenia: 29.5%, and without sarcopenia: 25.6%) were enrolled. Classification of vitamin D status at a cutoff point of median 25(OH)D concentration revealed that low 25(OH)D status was associated with a high prevalence of severe sarcopenia and with low measured values of muscle mass, handgrip, and gait-speed. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis identified that low 25(OH)D status was associated with a high prevalence of severe sarcopenia (OR 6.00; 95% CI 1.99–18.08). In components of sarcopenia, both low physical performance and muscle mass were associated with low 25(OH) status. In conclusion, vitamin D levels are associated with severe sarcopenia and its components, and modification of vitamin D status including vitamin D supplementation may play a role in improving sarcopenia in RA.

While vitamin D insufficiency is known to impact a multitude of health outcomes, including HIV-1, little is known about the role of vitamin D-mediated immune regulation in the female reproductive tract (FRT). We performed a pilot clinical study of 20 women with circulating 25(OH)D levels <62.5 nmol/L. Participants were randomized into either weekly or daily high-dose oral vitamin D supplementation groups. In addition to serum vitamin D levels, genital mucosal endpoints, including soluble mediators, immune cell populations, gene expression, and ex vivo HIV-1 infection, were assessed. While systemic vitamin D levels showed a significant increase following supplementation, these changes translated into modest effects on the cervicovaginal factors studied. Paradoxically, post-supplementation vitamin D levels were decreased in cervicovaginal fluids. Given the strong correlation between vitamin D status and HIV-1 infection and the widespread nature of vitamin D deficiency, further understanding of the role of vitamin D immunoregulation in the female reproductive tract is important.
