Abstract:
Objective To understand the vitamin D status and its possible ethnic differences among Uygur and Han women of childbearing age in a community of Urumqi.Methods Based on the data of 2 080 patients with thyroid disease in a community of Urumqi,which were collected in May 2013,we selected the complete information of 652 Uygur and Han women of childbearing age (between 18-45 years),which included 367 Uygur women [average age (35.14± 6.91) years] and 285 Han women [average age (35.52± 7.10) years].The basic data of height,weight,and waist circumference were recorded.The serum level of 25-hydroxyl vitamin D [25(OH) D] was detected by chemiluminescence method.Results The serum 25(OH) D levels of Uygur and Han were (11.51±6.31) μg/L and (16.43±6.43) μg/L,respectively.The 25(OH)D level in Uygur women was significantly lower than that of Han women (t =-9.800,P<0.001).The constituent ratio of vitamin D status was significantly different between Uygur and Han women (vitamin D severe deficiency:47.4% in Uygur women and 12.3% in Han women),deficiency (44.7% in Uygur women and 64.6% in Han women),insufficiency 5.7% in Uygur women and 17.9% in Han women),sufficiency (2.2% in Uygur women and 5.2% in Han women) (x2 =99.486,P<0.001).Conclusion Serum 25 (OH) D deficiency is common in Uygur and Han women of childbearing age in Urumqi,especially among Uygur women.
