Serum concentrations of vitamin D metabolites in untreated tuberculosis.
A prospective study of 50 consecutive patients presenting with tuberculosis has shown that patients have on average lower serum concentrations of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OHD) than healthy matched controls. No difference was shown in serum 1,25-(OH)2D, 24,25-(OH)2D, or parathyroid hormone. Uncorrected serum calcium was lower in the patient group but identical when correction concentrations...
متن کاملSerum Vitamin D Concentrations in CoVID19 Patients
Background and purpose: Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent in Iran. Death toll due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is high in this country. The purpose of the present investigation was to provide more information on the relationship between serum levels of vitamin D in confirmed cases of COVID-19 in north of Iran. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study w...
متن کاملStatus of Vitamin D, Calcium and Parathyroid Hormone Levels & Hepatorenal Function in Untreated Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Matched Case-Control Study
Background and Objective: Tuberculosis (TB) remains an ongoing major public health problem in the world. In recent years, experimental evidenc suggests a link between TB and Vitamin (Vit) D. This study was conducted to determine serum Vit D, calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and parathormone (PTH) levels in untreated pulmonary TB (PTB) patients. Materials and Methods: In this case control study, 5...
متن کاملChemotyping the distribution of vitamin D metabolites in human serum
Most studies examining the relationships between vitamin D and disease or health focus on the main 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) metabolite, thus potentially overlooking contributions and dynamic effects of other vitamin D metabolites, the crucial roles of several of which have been previously demonstrated. The ideal assay would determine all relevant high and low-abundant vitamin D species s...
متن کاملValue Assignment of Vitamin D Metabolites in Vitamin D Standardization Program Serum Samples.
Assay variability has been cited as an obstacle to establishing optimal vitamin D exposure. As part of the Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) effort to standardize the measurement of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], the value assignment of total 25(OH)D in 50 single-donor serum samples was performed using two isotope-dilution LC with tandem MS methods. Both methods are recognized as r...
