Lower vitamin D intake is associated with low HDL cholesterol and vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency in Brazilian children

Abstract: Given the elevated prevalence of inadequate vitamin D intake and its association with low HDL-C and vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency, it is important to develop specific actions in food and nutritional education as well as programmes that stimulate and facilitate access to vitamin D food sources, such as dairy products and fish.

“…In Brazil, low vitamin D intake is commonly observed. Filgueiras et al ( 49 ) found an elevated prevalence of inadequate vitamin D intake (91.3 %) among 378 children. Peters et al ( 50 ), studying 136 adolescents, and Cembranel et al ( 51 ), assessing 1051 patients between 22 and 63 years, described that 85.1% and 100% of subjects did not meet the daily adequate intake recommendation of vitamin D. In 2013, a National Dietary Survey with Brazilian elderly stated that our region had more adequate levels of vitamin D intake when compared to other regions of Brazil, even though inadequacy was still very present ( 52 ).…”

“…As limitations, we used a 24-hour recall, which does not reflect a habitual intake. However, this method has been used thoroughly with success in other epidemiologic studies [60,61], including DII analyses [1,45,46,54,58,62,63]. Although we were able to compute the DII from only 19 of the 45 potential items of food and nutrients that could be used to calculate this index, other published studies also derive DII scores from a sub-optimal number of items, and the ability to still detect significant associations suggests that this has only caused to a potential underestimated of the associations [1,52,58,64,65].…”

“…The results of the receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis showed that BAIp and BAI had the ability to predict excess body adiposity in children and adolescents, especially BAIp, with a better performance in the 18-19 years age group compared with BAI. However, the Bland-Altman test showed no good agreement of these indices with the values Table 4 Probabilities of correct decisions and misclassification errors, validity coefficients, and expected utility, disutility and maximal utility for cut-offs points of the body adiposity index (BAI) and the paediatric body adiposity index (BAIp) for the classification of high adiposity, by age and sex, in children and adolescents aged [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] El Aarbaoui et al (9) assessed individuals aged 5-12 years to verify the effectiveness of the BAI equation and a possible need for another equation more efficient for the paediatric population. Their results showed that BAI overestimated body fat values in this age group and a paediatric equation was necessary for this evaluation, namely the BAIp.…”
