Abstract:
Objective To observe the changes of serum 25‐hydroxy vitamin D[25‐(OH)D] level of patients with rheumatoid ar‐thritis(RA) and study its clinical significance .Methods The method of chemiluminescence was adopted to detect peripheral blood serum 25‐(OH) D of 60 cases of RA patients(RA group) and 60 cases of healthy people(control group) .Results The serum 25‐(OH) D level of patients in RA group was(34 .37 ± 8 .87) nmol/L ,while that of the control group was(61 .33 ± 7 .74) nmol/L ;after comparison ,the differences were statistically significant (t= -6 .892 ,P< 0 .05);the serum 25‐(OH) D level of patients in RA group was in negative correlation with RA patient age ,body mass index(BMI) ,time of morning stiffness ,tender joint count(TJC) , swollen joint count(SJC) ,C‐reactive protein(CRP) ,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) ,visual analog scale(VAS) for disease o‐verall pain and health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) and disease activity score (DAS28)(r= -0 .201 ,-0 .255 ,-0 .362 ,-0 .296 ,-0 .273 ,-0 .198 ,-0 .323 ,-0 .356 ,-0 .379 ,-0 .418 ;P<0 .05 in all cases);but had no correlation with course of dis‐ease ,rheumatoid factor (RF) ,anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody (anti‐CCP) and antibody concentration (P> 0 .05) . Conclusion The serum 25‐(OH) D level of RA patients is significantly low ,which might be associated with the RA disease activi‐ty .
