BACKGROUND Metabolic homeostasis is substantially disrupted in critical illness. Given the pleiotropic effects of vitamin D, we hypothesized that metabolic profiles differ between critically ill patients relative to their vitamin D status. METHODS We performed a metabolomics study on biorepository samples collected from a single academic medical center on 65 adults with systemic inflammatory ...
متن کامل0474. Circulating mitochondrial dna and vitamin d in critical illness
Methods We performed a prospective observational cohort of MICU patients at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital from 2008-2010 [n=49]. The exposure of interest was 25(OH)D categorized a priori as deficiency (25(OH)D ≤ 15 ng/mL) and measured via competitive chemiluminescence immunoassay. Circulating plasma mitochondrial DNA (mt-DNA) were assessed by measuring copy number of the NADH dehydrogenase 1...
