Abstract:
Objective The purpose of this study was to detect serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25-(OH) VitD] levels in children with atopic dermatitis (AD) and to explore its association with food allergy (FA).Methods Sixty cases of infant patients with AD have been collected.The morning fasting venous blood were obtained to check the 25-(OH)VitD level in serum.Moreover,IgE in 6 kinds of common food was also tested.Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the relation between 25-(OH)VitD level in serum and FA.The potential risks and confounding factors were adjusted.Results Among the 60 AD children,67.4% of them had FA,and the majority of them had milk allergy (86.84%),no wheat allergy was found.There was a positive correlation between 25-(OH) VitD levels and age (r=0.46,P< 0.01),but no statistical correlation with total IgE levels (P>0.05).25-(OH)VitD deficiency may significantly increase the risk of suffering from FA (OR=11.20,95%CI:1.35-73.66,P=0.023).Conclusion The decrease of the 25-(OH)VitD level in infant patients with AD is associated with FA.What's more,25-(OH)VitD deficiency may be a risk factor for increasing FA.
