Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of vitamin D level and its relationship with bone alkaline phosphatase(BAP)and parathyroid hormone(PTH)in infants fed with breast milk and vitamin D supplementation for 0-8 months in People`s Hospital of Longhua New District in Shenzhen city.MethodsTotally 67 newborns in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of People`s Hospital of Longhua New District were selected.These newborns were breastfed and began to supplement vitamin D 400 U/d in the 15th day after birth.The serum 25-(OH)D3 and BAP and PTH levels were measured in newborns and 4-/8-month-old infants,and the correlations of serum 25-(OH)D3 with BAP and PTH were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.ResultsCompared with the newborns,the serum 25-(OH)D3 [(78.47±36.41)nmol/L,(75.26±34.73)nmol/L],BAP[(231.43±78.81)μg/L,(205.97±71.64)μg/L],PTH[(31.76±11.54)pg/ml,and(32.94±13.82)pg/ml] levels of 4-and 8-month-old infants were significantly higher,and the difference were statistically significant(t4 months=7.823,12.568,11.852,t8 months=7.364,9.473,11.947;all P=0.000).There was a negative correlation between serum 25-(OH)D3 and BAP in newborns and 4-/8-monthold infants(r=-0.372,-0.463,-0.309;P=0.008,0.016,0.021),the serum BAP was positively correlated with PTH in infants aged 4 months and 8 months(r=0.487,0.338;P=0.005,0.032),and the serum 25-(OH)D3 was negatively correlated with PTH in infants aged 4 months(r=-0.297,P=0.041).Conclusions Infants at birth are prone to vitamin D deficiency in Shenzhen City.After 4 months of breastfeeding and vitamin D400U/d supplementation,the vitamin D levels in most infants become normal.25-(OH)D3 is correlated with BAP and PTH in different months.
