AbstractObjectivesKidney transplant (KTx) recipients frequently have deficient or insufficient levels of serum vitamin D. Few studies have investigated the effect of cholecalciferol in these patients. We evaluated the efficacy of weekly cholecalciferol administration on parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in stable KTx patients with chronic kidney disease stage 1–3.MethodsIn this retrospective cohort study, 48 stable KTx recipients (37 males, 11 females, aged 52 ± 11 years and 26 months post-transplantation) were treated weekly with oral cholecalciferol (7500–8750 IU) for 12 months and compared to 44 untreated age- and gender-matched recipients. Changes in levels of PTH, 25(OH) vitamin D (25[OH]D), serum calcium, phosphate, creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were measured at baseline, 6 and 12 months.ResultsAt baseline, clinical characteristics were similar between treated and untreated patients. Considering the entire cohort, 87 (94.6%) were deficient in vitamin D and 64 (69.6%) had PTH ≥130 pg/mL. Serum calcium, phosphate, creatinine and eGFR did not differ between groups over the follow-up period. However, 25(OH)D levels were significantly higher at both 6 (63.5 vs. 30.3 nmol/L, p < 0.001) and 12 months (69.4 vs. 30 nmol/L, p < 0.001) in treated vs. untreated patients, corresponding with a significant reduction in PTH at both 6 (112 vs. 161 pg/mL) and 12 months (109 vs. 154 pg/mL) in treated vs. untreated patients, respectively (p < 0.001 for both).ConclusionsWeekly administration of cholecalciferol can significantly and stably reduce PTH levels, without any adverse effects on serum calcium and renal function.

Abstract Background/Aims  Vitamin D deficiency is associated with more severe presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism (PTHP) with high parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and reduced bone mineral density (BMD). We analyzed data to determine if vitamin D levels had any impact on PTH, serum calcium and BMD at diagnosis and 3 years, in patients being managed conservatively. Methods  Retrospective analysis of patients presenting with PHPT. Based on vitamin D level at diagnosis, patients were divided into two groups; vitamin D sufficient (≥ 50 nmol/L) and vitamin D insufficient (≤ 50 nmol/L). The two groups were compared for age, serum calcium and PTH levels at diagnosis and after mean follow up of 3 years. BMD at forearm and neck of femur (NOF) was only analyzed in the two groups at diagnosis, due to lack of 3 year’s data. Results  There were a total of 93 patients, 17 males, mean age 70; range 38-90. Mean vitamin D level was 73.39 nmol/L in sufficient group (n = 42) and 34.48 nmol/L in insufficient group (n = 40), (difference between means -38.91, 95% confidence interval -45.49 to -32.33, p &lt; 0.0001). There was no significant difference in age, serum calcium and PTH at the time of diagnosis. After three years, there was no significant difference in vitamin D levels between the two groups (mean vitamin D 72.17 nmol/L in sufficient group and 61.48 nmol/L in insufficient group). Despite rise in vitamin D level in insufficient group, no significant change was observed in this group in PTH and serum calcium levels. BMD was lower at both sites in vitamin D sufficient group and difference was statistically significant at NOF. Data were analyzed using unpaired t test and presented as mean ± SEM. Conclusion  50% of patients presenting with PHPT were vitamin D insufficient at diagnosis. Vitamin D was adequately replaced so that at 3 years there was no significant difference in vitamin D status in the two groups. Serum calcium and PTH were no different in the two groups at diagnosis and at three years, despite rise in vitamin D levels in the insufficient group. Interestingly, BMD was lower at forearm and neck of femur in those with sufficient vitamin D levels and the difference was statistically significant at neck of femur. Our data show that vitamin D insufficiency does not have any significant impact on PTH and calcium levels and that vitamin D replacement is safe in PHPT and does not impact serum calcium and PTH levels in the short term. Lower BMD in those with adequate vitamin D levels is difficult to explain and needs further research. Disclosure  M. Khalid: None. V. Deshani: None. K. Jadoon: None.

Introduction: Vitamin D is an important micronutrient having crucial role in calcium and phosphate homeostasis but there is emerging evidence to suggest its role in prevention of infectious, inflammatory and neoplastic diseases. The vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency is a widely recognized problem among children in developed as well as developing countries.Objective: To find out the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency among children aged 2 months to 13 yrs and its correlation with serum calcium, phosphate and demographic factors.Methodology: Prospective, cross sectional, hospital based study conducted at Birat Medical College Teaching Hospital for a period of one year among children presented to pediatric OPD in whom pediatrician had a suspicion of Vitamin D Insufficiency /Deficiency. Venous blood Samples were taken for the estimation of 25(OH) Vitamin D, Calcium and Phosphate. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS software version 16. Results Among 174 children aged 2 months to 13 years, the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency at the cutoff of <30ng/ml was 82.75% where as no cases of vitamin D deficiency was noted at cut off level of < 10 ng/ml. Children residing in urban area, samples taken in the winter season had higher prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency (p value <0.05). Serum calcium and phosphate level were found positively correlated with Vitamin D level (p<.05). However the relationship was very strong between Vitamin D and Calcium (r=0.402, p-value <0.001) and weak positive correlation was noted with phosphate(r=0.155, p value <0.05).Conclusion: There is very high prevalence of Vitamin D insufficiency among children. The vitamin D insufficiency was significantly higher in winter season as compared to summer. Children living in the urban area are more prone to Vitamin D insufficiency. Moderately strong positive correlation was observed between Vitamin D level and calcium but weak correlation existed with phosphate. BJHS 2018;3(1)5 : 381-384

A case of idiopathic hypercalcemia present from early infancy and diagnosed at 5 years of age is reported in which the serum assay of vitamin D indicated elevated levels. After discontinuation of supplemental vitamin D and a diet low in calcium the concentrations of calcium and vitamin D in the serum gradually returned to normal over a period of 18 months. Roentgenograms of the bones showed evidence of demineralization rather than increased density as reported in other cases of "idiopathic" hypercalcemia. During a subsequent 2-year follow-up the patient has maintained a normal serum calcium. The etiology is discussed with particular reference to the role of vitamin D in this case

ABSTRACT Background : Roux-en-Y gastric bypass patients can experience changes in calcium metabolism and hyperparathyroidism secondary to vitamin D deficiency. Aim : To evaluate nutritional deficiencies related to the calcium metabolism of patients undergoing gastric bypass with a 10-year follow-up. Method : This is a longitudinal retrospective study of patients submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass at a multidisciplinary clinic located in the Brazilian southeast region. The study investigated the results of the following biochemical tests: serum calcium, ionized calcium, vitamin D, and parathormone (PTH). The generalized estimating equations (GEE) determined the nutritional deficiencies using a significance level of 5%. Results : Among the patients who finished the study (120 months), 82.86% (n=29) had vitamin D deficiency, and 41.94% (n=13) had high PTH. Postoperative time had a significant effect on PTH (p=0.0059). The percentages of patients with vitamin D, serum calcium, and ionized calcium deficiencies did not change significantly over time. Conclusion : One of the outcomes was vitamin D deficiency associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism. These findings reaffirm the importance of monitoring the bone metabolism of patients submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. HEADINGS: Calcium deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency. Secondary hyperparathyroidism.
