Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D Concentration Significantly Decreases in Patients with COVID-19 Pneumonia during the First 48 Hours after Hospital Admission.

ABSTRACT: It is unclear how ongoing inflammation in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) affects 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentration. The objective of our study was to examine serum 25(OH)D levels during COVID-19 pneumonia. Patients were admitted between 1 November and 31 December 2021. Blood samples were taken on admission (day 0) and every 24 h for the subsequent four days (day 1-4). On admission, 59% of patients were 25(OH)D sufficient (>30 ng/mL), and 41% had 25(OH)D inadequacy (<30 ng/mL). A significant fall in mean 25(OH)D concentration from admission to day 2 (first 48 h) was observed (30.7 ng/mL vs. 26.4 ng/mL; p < 0.0001). No subsequent significant change in 25(OH)D concentration was observed between day 2 and 3 (26.4 ng/mL vs. 25.9 ng/mL; p = 0.230) and day 3 and day 4 (25.8 ng/mL vs. 25.9 ng/mL; p = 0.703). The absolute 25(OH)D change between hospital admission and day 4 was 16% (4.8 ng/mL; p < 0.0001). On day 4, the number of patients with 25(OH)D inadequacy increased by 18% (p = 0.018). Therefore, serum 25(OH)D concentration after hospital admission in acutely ill COVID-19 patients should be interpreted with caution. Whether low 25(OH)D in COVID-19 reflects tissue level vitamin D deficiency or represents only a laboratory phenomenon remains to be elucidated in further prospective trials of vitamin D supplementation.

Project description:ImportanceLow circulating concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) have been consistently associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) in white populations. This association has not been rigorously evaluated in other races or ethnicities, in which the distributions of 25(OH)D concentration and possibly other aspects of 25(OH)D metabolism differ.ObjectiveTo examine the association of serum 25(OH)D concentration with risk of CHD in a multiethnic population.Design, setting, and participantsWe studied 6436 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), recruited from July 2000 through September 2002, who were free of known cardiovascular disease at baseline. We measured baseline serum 25(OH)D concentrations using a mass spectrometry assay calibrated to established standards. We tested associations of 25(OH)D with adjudicated CHD events assessed through May 2012.Main outcome and measuresPrimary outcome measure was time to first adjudicated CHD event, defined as myocardial infarction, angina, cardiac arrest, or CHD death.ResultsDuring a median follow-up of 8.5 years, 361 participants had an incident CHD event (7.38 events per 1000 person-years). Associations of 25(OH)D with CHD differed by race/ethnicity (P for interaction < .05). After adjustment, lower 25(OH)D concentration was associated with a greater risk of incident CHD among participants who were white (n = 167 events; hazard ratio [HR], 1.26 [95% CI, 1.06-1.49] for each 10-ng/mL decrement in 25(OH)D) or Chinese (HR, 1.67 [95% CI, 1.07-2.61]; n = 27). In contrast, 25(OH)D was not associated with risk of CHD in participants who were black (HR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.73-1.20]; n = 94) or Hispanic (HR, 1.01 [95% CI, 0.77-1.33]; n = 73).Conclusions and relevanceLower serum 25(OH)D concentration was associated with an increased risk of incident CHD events among participants who were white or Chinese but not black or Hispanic. Results evaluating 25(OH)D in ethnically homogeneous populations may not be broadly generalizable to other racial or ethnic groups.

Project description:Background:Interpretation of serum vitamin D biomarkers across pregnancy is complex due to limited understanding of pregnancy adaptations in vitamin D metabolism. During pregnancy, both gestational age and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations may influence the concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [24,25(OH)2D], and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Objective:We aimed to identify predictors of change in serum 25(OH)D across gestation in pregnant adolescents and to assess the contribution made by cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) supplementation. We sought to determine whether gestational age and 25(OH)D concentration interacted to affect serum 1,25(OH)2D, 24,25(OH)2D, or PTH. Methods:Pregnant adolescents (n = 78, 59% African American, mean ± SD age: 17 ± 1 y) living in Rochester, NY (latitude 43°N) were supplemented with 200 IU or 2000 IU vitamin D3/d and allowed to continue their daily prenatal supplement that contained 400 IU vitamin D3. Serum was collected at study entry (18 ± 5 wk of gestation), halfway through study participation, and at delivery (40 ± 2 wk). Serum concentrations of the biochemical markers were modeled with linear mixed-effects regression models. Results:Vitamin D3 supplement intake and season of delivery determined change in 25(OH)D across pregnancy. Fall-winter delivery was associated with a decline in 25(OH)D unless vitamin D3 supplement intake was >872 IU/d. The interaction of gestational age and 25(OH)D affected 24,25(OH)2D concentrations. For a given 25(OH)D concentration, model-predicted serum 24,25(OH)2D increased across gestation except when 25(OH)D was <13 ng/mL. Below this threshold, 24,25(OH)2D was predicted to decline over time. Mean serum 1,25(OH)2D was elevated (>100 pg/mL) throughout the study. Conclusion:Our results suggest that when maternal serum 25(OH)D was low, its catabolism into 24,25(OH)2D decreased or remained stable as pregnancy progressed in order to maintain persistently elevated serum 1,25(OH)2D. Furthermore, in adolescents living at latitude 43°N, standard prenatal supplementation did not prevent a seasonal decline in 25(OH)D during pregnancy. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01815047.
