Se dividió la muestra en 2 grupos, dependiendo de los niveles de vitamina D (punto de corte 30 ng/ml). Se han estudiado los niveles de 25-hidroxivitamina D, junto con una anamnesis y exploración clínica estructuradas. MétodosĮstudio prospectivo y descriptivo de un año de duración en niños, entre uno y 24 meses, ingresados por enfermedades agudas leves. El objetivo del estudio es determinar los niveles de 25-hidroxivitamina D en menores de 2 años ingresados en un hospital terciario de Valencia por enfermedades agudas leves y su relación con factores que puedan estar asociados con su deficiencia.
Our results emphasize the importance of vitamin D prophylaxis during the first year of life, even in sunny Mediterranean regions.Ī pesar del creciente interés por las funciones de la vitamina D, siguen documentándose casos deficitarios en regiones soleadas donde se presuponen niveles adecuados. In Valencia, Spain, 25-hydroxivitamin D levels lower than 30 ng/mL were found in a quarter of the children younger than two years. Prophylaxis was given to 47% of the breastfed children younger than one year. No statistical differences were found in diet characteristics ( P =. Almost one quarter (24.3%) of the children had 25-hydroxivitamin D levels 30 ng/mL were associated with vitamin D prophylaxis during the first year, in children of a Caucasian mother, and those who did not wear a hijab. ResultsĪ total of 169 children were included, with a median age of 9 months, being more prevalent Caucasians (75.7%) and younger than one year old (79.3%). Children were classified into two groups, according to 25-hydroxivitamin D levels (cut-off 30 ng/mL). A standardized physical examination and structured interviews to the parents were performed. 25-Hydroxivitamin D levels were analyzed. This one year prospective and observational study was conducted on 169 children admitted for acute mild diseases. The aim of this study was to analyze 25-hydroxivitamin D levels in children younger than 2 years admitted for acute mild diseases in a tertiary hospital in Valencia and its relationship with factors that can be associated with its deficiency. Despite the increasing interest in vitamin D functions, new cases of deficiency have been reported in sunny regions where optimal levels are expected.
