Background and aims: Vitamin D deficiency is a known pandemic problem which has thousands of bad health outcomes. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of maternal vitamin D, Ca, and PO4 levels on growth indexes of newborns at birth and 1 month and 3 months after delivery in pregnant women admitted to Hajar hospital of Shahrekord, Iran in 2016. Materials and Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 196 pregnant women admitted to the hospital. During pregnancy, 5 mL of mother’s blood and 5 mL of umbilical cord blood were taken. Serum calcium and phosphorus levels were determined immediately after sampling and then centrifuged. After collecting the samples, 25-OHD levels were measured by ELISA method. Neonatal growth indexes such as weight, height, and head circumference atbirth,1 month, and 3 months were measured. Data were analyzed using independent samples t test, ANOVA, and correlation coefficient by SPSS version 16.0. Results: Deficiency of vitamin D, phosphorus, and calcium was observed in 76%, 1%, and 25% of women, respectively. Moreover, deficiency of vitamin D, phosphorus, and calcium was reportedin56.1%, 15.8%, and 9.2% of newborns, respectively. There was a significant relationship between calcium level in newborns and their weight and height at birth, one month, and three months of age ( P<0.05). Levels of vitamin D, calcium and phosphorus of mother and newborns were significantly correlated ( P<0.05). Conclusion: More than two-thirds of mothers and more than half of the newborns were deficient in vitamin D. There was also a lack of calcium in one third of mothers and 9.2% of newborns, and phosphorus deficiency was observed only in 1% of mothers and 15.8% of newborns. Due to the low intake of these materials through nutrition, the supplementation of these substances, especially vitamin D and calcium, is required during pregnancy.

Background:Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease predominantly involving the axial skeleton and sacroiliac joints. Although the exact aetiology remains largely unknown, there is thought to be an immune-driven element. Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with a number of autoimmune diseases and is thought to play an important role in modulating the immune system. Low vitamin D levels may contribute to the development and progression of axSpA1.Objectives:To study the possible associations between low vitamin D and disease activity in axSpA.Methods:A systematic literature search using Medline, Embase and Cochrane was performed using MESH search terms “ankylosing spondylitis”, “axial spondyloarthropathy” and “vitamin D”. Articles examining disease activity measured by BASDAI, ASDAS-CRP, ESR and CRP identified through title/abstract screening, were included in the study, with relevant information extracted.Results:Out of 495 articles identified from the initial search, 19 observational studies which were mostly (89%) cross-sectional studies were identified. There was considerable heterogeneity between studies, including in the definition of vitamin D deficiency, latitude where study took place and seasonal variation. Vitamin D levels were often lower in patients with axSpA compared to controls. Seventeen studies found no association with vitamin D deficiency and disease activity. The exceptions included one study which measured serum vitamin D receptor levels as opposed to serum 25 (OH) D or 1,25 (OH)2 D concentrations, and another study whose recruitment occurred over four years and therefore seasonal variation may conflict results. Patients taking NSAIDs or anti-TNF had no difference in vitamin D levels.Conclusion:Vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent in axSpA but does not seem to associate with increased disease activity. Longitudinal studies are required to better define these links.References:[1]Sizheng Z, et al.

Objective. To assess the serum vitamin D and ICTP levels in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and investigate their relationship with disease activity and bone mineral density (BMD).Method. 150 patients and 168 controls were included. Serum 25(OH)D, ICTP, C-reaction protein (CRP), Bath AS Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath AS Functional Index (BASFI), and Hip BMD were assessed in patients. 25(OH)D and ICTP were detected in controls.Results. The serum 25(OH)D in AS was 57.92 ± 24.42 nmol/L, significantly lower than controls (91.24 ± 42.02 nmol/L). Serum ICTP in AS was 5.72 ± 3.88 ug/L, significantly higher than controls (3.69 ± 1.26 ug/L). ICTP level was higher in men than in women patients (6.07 ± 4.05 versus 3.84 ± 1.96 ug/L,P≤0.01); it was also higher in JAS than in AAS (9.52 ± 3.79 versus 5.27 ± 3.65 ug/L,P≤0.01). Furthermore, 25(OH)D was negatively correlated with ICTP. Low 25(OH)D and high ICTP were one of the reasons of AS patients’ low hip BMD. Besides, a significant relationship was found between serum ICTP and CRP.Conclusion. There was a high incidence of vitamin D inadequacy in AS. Serum ICTP level was elevated in AS, especially in JAS and male patients. 25(OH)D and ICTP seem to be valuable markers to detect bone loss in AS.
