Abstract:
Objective To analyze the vitamin D status among apparently healthy younger and elder adults in Beijing based on liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.Methods This is an observational study.Participants included 287 apparently healthy young adults(143 males and 144 females) with an average of (32.2 ± 6.9) years old (19-44 years).At the same time 198 middle-and elder-aged adults were recruited [90 males,108 females,(55.6 ± 7.6) years],and fasting blood samples were collected and serum were isolated.They measured 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD:25OHD2 and 25OHD3)using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method.Vitamin D with deficiency,insufficiency,sufficiency and intoxication was categorized as 25OHD ＜ 20 ng/ml,20-30 ng/ml,30-150 ng/ml,and ≥ 150 ng/ml,respectively.ALT,Ca,P,Cr,Glu,TG,TC and iPTH wereanalyzed using automatic analyzers.Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS17.0.Results The median 25OHD level in the total studied younger adults was 16.0 [2.5％-97.5％:(6.1-29.0) ng/ml] which didn't show significant difference with that of middle-and elder-aged adults.Younger males had significant higher level of 25OHD than females [17.9 (8.3-32.3) ng/ml vs.14.4 (5.4-26.4) ng/ml,Z =-4.238,P ＜ 0.01].Of the total younger subjects,the rate of vitamin D with deficiency (＜ 20 ng/ml),insufficiency (20-30 ng/ml)and sufficiency (≥30 ng/ml) was 72.8％,25.1％,2.1％,respectively,while that of middle-and elderaged adults was 76.3％,21.2％,2.5％ respectively,and that of younger males was 65.0％,30.8％,4.2％,respectively while that of younger females was 80.6％,19.4％,0％,respectively.Younger females had significantly higher rate of 25OHD deficiency (x2 =31.766,P ＜ 0.01).With adjusting sex,age and BMI,serum iPTH (r =-0.264,P ＜ 0.01) was significantly negatively correlated with 25OHD while Cr (r =0.221,P ＜ 0.01) showed significantly positively correlation with 25OHD.Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency is prevalent in both younger and elder adults in Beijing,especially in younger females.
