“…Nonetheless, all of these data confirm that vitamin D deficiency continues to be a problem in pregnant women in Turkey and their infants. It has been reported that the level of vitamin D in pregnant women can be affected by factors such as geographical region, sunbathing habits, style of dress, body mass index, the educational level of the mother, socioeconomic status, dairy product consumption, and external vitamin D supplementation [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. It was observed in this meta-analyses study that rate of vitamin D deficiency varied from 57% to 93% for infants and from 62% to 95% for pregnant women.…”

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MEDICAL BIOCHEMISTRY Meta Analysis Vitamin D deficiency status in Turkey: A meta-analysis V itamin D is a steroid hormone that has a major role in bone mineralization through the regulation of calcium and phosphorus metabolism. The main sources of vitamin D are cutaneous synthesis and the ingestion of food, especially fish oil, eggs, and liver [1]. The most common forms of vitamin D absorption are vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D3 is synthesized in the skin through sunlight exposure. This inactive form of vitamin D3 is then metabolized to the prohormone form, 25-hydroxyvitamin (OH)D3, in the liver. The biologically effective form, 1.25(OH)D3, is produced in the kidneys and has a half-life of approximately 2 to 3 weeks, while the circulating half-life of 1.25(OH)D is only 4 to 6 hours. Therefore , 25(OH)D3 is generally considered a measure of vitamin D status [1]. Vitamin D has a substantial function in the maintenance of bone health. A deficiency of vitamin D has been associated with the increased risk of a number of chronic conditions, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, some cancers, autoimmune diseases, neuropsychiatric disorders, metabolic disorders and infectious diseases associated with decreased immunity [2, 3]. The deficiency of vitamin D is a significant problem of public health in both the developed world and developing countries, with a reported prevalence of 30% to 80% of children and adults worldwide [4, 5]. There is not currently enough infor-Objectives: Vitamin D deficiency is a significant public health problem in both developed and developing countries, with a reported worldwide prevalence of 30% to 80% among children and adults. The purpose of this study was to examine vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency in Turkey based on a review of the existing research. Methods: PubMed, DergiPark, The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK), Google Scholar, Google, and Scopus search engines were queried. The keywords of Turkey, vitamin D, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 25(OH)D3, 25(OH) vitamin D, deficiency/insufficiency of vitamin D, and prevalence were used in the screening process. The review included prospective and retrospective research studies with healthy individuals of various communities. The Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale was used to assess the risk of bias of the included studies. Results: A total of 40 studies with a sample size of 111.582 were included in the meta-analysis. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was estimated at 63% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 58.9-66.6) for the overall population. It was observed that vitamin D deficiency has been reported as 86.6% (95% CI: 70.2-94.6) for infants, 76% (95% CI: 65.2-84.3) for pregnant women, 39.8% (95% CI: 38-41.6) for children, and 63.5% (95% CI: 58.8-67.9) for adults. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among women and men was identified as 64.7% (95% CI: 57.5-71.2) and 39.5% (95% CI: 31.0-48.7), respectively. Conclusion...

SUMMARYObjective: Although vitamin D deficiency have been suggested in children is widespread recently, the data about vitamin D status of Turkish children is limited. The objective of the present study was to determine prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in children in Aegean region and to show effect of age, gender and seasons on vitamin D levels. The data from hospital information system was examined retrospectively. Method: Between January 2011 and February 2013, children admitted to department of paediatrics our hospital for health examination was taken blood for vitamin D measurement. Serum vitamin D levels were determined by electrochemiluminescent method and categorized as <20 ng/mL is deficiency and <30 ng/mL is insufficiency. Results: A total of 2909 children aged 1 month to 17 years participated in this retrospective study. All the subjects were divided into subgroups according to their age: 0-3 years old, 4-6 years old, 7-12 years old and 13-17 years old representing infancy and toddler, preschool, school age and adolescence stages respectively. The highest mean level of serum vitamin D was found in the 0-3 years old stage and the lowest one was found in 13-17 years old stage. Conclusion: In Turkish children, the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency (61%) is considerable size. We suggest that the recommendation for vitamin D supplementation after the first year of life could be beneficial especially for school children and adolescents.

“…While fetal calcium levels are higher than maternal calcium levels during pregnancy, the concentration of vitamin D in umbilical cord blood and maternal vitamin D levels are similar. [16][17][18][19][20] Although many studies have been conducted examining the relationship between maternal preeclampsia and vitamin D level, a limited number of studies have evaluated the vitamin D level in the cord blood of preeclamptic mothers.…”

Objective: Vitamin D deficiency may play a role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia by causing abnormal placental implantation and by affecting the inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to compare the cord blood vitamin D level in neonates born to preeclamptic mothers with that of a control group of newborns whose mothers were not preeclamptic. Methods: The preeclamptic group was made up of newborns of mothers classified as having moderate to severe preeclampsia. Neonates of a similar gestational age and birth weight born to normotensive mothers comprised the control group. The cord blood vitamin D level of both groups of newborns was measured and the results were statistically compared. Results: Sixty neonates born to preeclamptic mothers and 47 born to normotensive mothers were included in the study. The mean serum vitamin D level of the study group was 12.62±5.43 ng/mL and 12.85±5.56 ng/mL in the control group. The percentage of those determined to have a serum vitamin D level <20 ng/mL in the study and the control groups was 89.5% and 88.9%, respectively. The serum magnesium level in the study group was statistically greater than that observed in the control group (p<0.001). Conclusion: The cord blood vitamin D level of those born to preeclamptic mothers was not found to be statistically different when compared with the vitamin D level of neonates of normotensive mothers.
