				        	Objective To evaluate the association between vitamin D deficiency and diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods A total of 594 patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled from the inpatients of the Nanjing Medical University Affiliated Nanjing Hospital.Fasting serum lipid profile,25-hydroxycalciferol vitamin D and urinary albumin excretion rate were investigated.The relationship between nephropathy and vitamin D deficiency (< 20 μg/L) or insufficiency (20-< 30 μg/L) was analyzed.Results Nephropathy was found in 177 subjects (29.8%) with albuminuria in 141 and proteinuria in 36 subjects.Vitamin D deficiency was found in 180 subjects and insufficiency in 157 subjects.The proportion of vitamin D deficiency was higher in the individuals with nephropathy than those without nephropathy (36.2% vs 27.8%,P <0.05).The urinary albumin excretion rate was significantly higher in the patients with vitamin D deficiency than those with normal vitamin D concentration [(123.0 ± 299.2)mg/24h vs (47.6 ±97.1) mg/24h,P <0.01].The prevalence of nephropathy was higher in the patientswith vitamin D deficiency than those with normal vitamin D concentration (35.6% vs 26.1%,P < 0.05),while the prevalence of proteinuria was higher in patients with vitamin D deficency (12.2% vs 3.1%,P <0.01).Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that vitamin D deficiency was associated with nephropathy (OR 1.57,95% CI 1.04-2.37),even after the adjustment for age,gender,hypertension,dyslipidemia,smoking status,use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (OR 1.78,95% CI 1.12-2.81).The Vitamin D concentration was significantly negatively correlated with urinaryalbumin excretion rate (r =-1.783,P < 0.001).Conclusions Type 2 diabetic patients have a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency.Vitamin D deficiency is independently associated with diabetic nephropathy.
