Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation between C-reactive protein(CRP)and vitamin levels,and to Elucidate that inflammation is a crucial cause of vitamin deficiency.Methods:The clinical data of 551 patients treated by the Department of Nutrition of Tianjin Third Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed from September 2021 to July 2023.Based on CRP levels,the patients were categorized into three groups:the no/mild inflammation group(89 cases,CRP<10 mg/L),the moderate inflammation group(148 cases,10 mg/L≤CRP<50 mg/L),and the severe inflammation group(314 cases,CRP≥50 mg/L).Clinical characteristics and serum vitamin levels of the three groups were compared to further Investigate the effects of inflammation on serum vitamin concentrations.Results:A total of 551 patients were included in the analysis of nine water-soluble vitamins and four fat-soluble vitamins.CRP levels were negatively correlated with serum vitamin C,vitamin B3,vitamin B9,vitamin A,25-OH vitamin D3 and 25-OH vitamin D,and the correlation coefficients were as follows:-0.33,-0.11,-0.16,-0.33,-0.09,-0.12.Conversely,CRP was positively correlated with serum vitamin B6,and the correlation coefficient was 0.16.Analysis of the three inflammatory subgroups revealed that serum levels of vitamin C,vitamin B9,vitamin A,25-OH vitamin D3 and 25-OH vitamin D were progressively decreased with the severity of inflammation(P<0.001).With the exacerbation of inflammation,the serum vitamin B3 level decreased significantly only in the condition of severe inflammation(P<0.01).Serum levels of vitamin B2,vitamin B5 and vitamin B6 in moderate to severe inflammation group were higher than those in no/mild inflammation group(P<0.001).Levels of Vitamin B7,vitamin B12,vitamin E and vitamin K levels were not correlated with CRP,and no statistical significance was observed in the analysis of inflammation subgroups among the three groups(P>0.05).Conclusions:Certain vitamin levels are influenced by the body's inflammatory state.When clinically found abnormal increase in inflammatory indicators,the serum levels of vitamin C,B9,B3,A,and D should be further monitored to be vigilant against vitamin deficiency.
