Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D in pregnant women during preterm labor.

چکیده
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Pregnancy complications hypothesized to be related to vitamin D include preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, low birth weight, preterm delivery, Cesarean section and infectious disease. There have been a few studies which have demonstrated maternal serum vitamin D to be associated with preterm labor. The objective was to evaluate the serum vitamin D concentrations in Thai pregnant women with and without preterm labor and to find the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in both groups. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN Blood samples were collected from pregnant women with and without preterm labor (matched for gestational age). Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) concentrations were measured by chemiluminescence method. RESULTS A total of 60 pregnant women were included into the study, 30 patients in the preterm labor group and another 30 patients in the control group. The serum 25-OHD concentration was 21.0±7.5 ng/mL and the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was 48.3% in total group of pregnant women. The serum 25-OHD concentrations were not different between the preterm labor and the control groups (20.9±8.4 vs 21.2±6.7 ng/mL, p=0.91). The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency were not different between the preterm labor and the control groups (53.3% vs 43.3%, p=0.44 and 83.3% vs 90%, p=0.45, respectively). CONCLUSION The serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations and the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency were not different between the preterm labor and the control groups. The serum 25-OHD could not predict preterm labor in this Thai population.

Vitamin D is important for the development, growth, and mineralization of the skeletal in neonates and children. Vitamin D is essential for intestinal absorption of calcium. Vitamin D is metabolized to 25-hydroxyvitamin D and then to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. Pregnant women in developed countries often have insufficient serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and a supplementation of vitamin...

Background: Over the past two decades we have seen a marked increase in the survival of very low birth weight infants. This increase in survival has been attributed to increased use of corticosteroids, regionalization of perinatal care, improved methods of mechanical ventilation, availability of exogenous surfactant, and improved nutritional therapy. However, the reduction in mortality has not ...

BACKGROUND During pregnancy, Low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin-D [25(OH)D] concentration is even more critical. This deficiency leads to higher incidences of preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, bacterial vaginosis, and also affects the health of the infants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) and gestational dia...
