Association between serum vitamin D and the risk of diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

This investigation explored the potential correlation between serum vitamin D concentration and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods

This cross-sectional study assessed 4,570 patients with T2DM drawn from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) dataset. Restricted cubic splines were utilized to examine the dose-response relationship between serum vitamin D levels and the risk of DKD in patients with T2DM. Serum vitamin D concentrations were divided into quartiles for multivariable logistic regression analysis to evaluate the association between varying serum vitamin D levels and DKD risk in patients with T2DM. Additionally, sex-stratified analyses were conducted to determine consistency of the r
