Abstract:
Objective To assess the relationship between serum vitamin D and autoimmune thyroid disease.Methods Subjects included total 520 persons receiving regular health examination,and serum calcium,phosphorus,parathyroid hormone (PTH),thyroid peroxidase autoantibody (TPOAb) and 25-dihydroxy vitamin Ds was measured.The incidence of 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 deficiency (≤30 μ g/L)was observed.The relationship between 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 deficiency and autoimmune thyroid disease was analyzed.Results The serum 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 of all the subjects was (24.47 ± 7.21) μ g/L,and the incidence of 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 deficiency (≤30 μg/L) was 61.15% (318/520),and the positive rate of TPOAb was 21.54% (112/520).The proportion of TPOAb > 50 kU/L or > 100 kU/L in subjects with 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3≤30 μ g/L was higher than that in subjects with 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 > 30 μg/L [25.79%(82/318) vs.19.80%(40/202) and 9.43%(30/318) vs.4.46%(9/202)],and there was significant difference (P < 0.05).The relationship between 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 and TPOAb was assessed and showed significant inverse correlation (r =-0.13,P <0.05).Conclusions Vitamin D deficiency is very common in the population,and autoimmune thyroid disease is related with vitamin D deficiency,which may has impact on the body's immune regulation.Specific mechanism and whether vitamin D supplementation can intervene and treat autoimmune thyroid disease need further study.
