Abstract
Purpose: Vitamin D deficiency is implicated in the development of prediabetes. However, it is unclear whether vitamin D deficiency showed any relationship with different phenotypes of prediabetes. This study was designed to address this issue.
Methods: We included participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2016. Prediabetes is classified into the following phenotypes: an isolated defect (that is, impaired fasting glucose [IFG], impaired glucose tolerance [IGT], or impaired hemoglobin A1c[IA1c]), two defects (that is, IFG+IGT, IFG+IA1c, or IGT+IA1c), or three defects (that is, IFG+IGT+IA1c). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to obtain the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Results: A total of 4126 participants (2332 with prediabetes and 1794 with normal glycemia) were included in this study. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that prediabetes was associated with an increased odds of vitamin D deficiency than normal glycemia (OR 1.216, 95% CI 1.023-1.444). Further analysis showed that prediabetes phenotypes of IGT+IFG (OR 1.549, 95% CI 1.050-2.283) and IFG+IGT + IA1c (OR 1.507, 95% CI 1.062-2.138) had an increased odds of vitamin D deficiency. The odds of vitamin D deficiency was higher in individuals with glucose-defined prediabetes, but not in those with HbA1c-defined prediabetes when compared with individuals with normal glycemia.
Conclusion: Prediabetes was associated with an increased odds of vitamin D deficiency, and glucose-defined prediabetes might be a better predictor of vitamin D deficiency.
期刊介绍:
Well-established as a major journal in today’s rapidly advancing experimental and clinical research areas, Endocrine publishes original articles devoted to basic (including molecular, cellular and physiological studies), translational and clinical research in all the different fields of endocrinology and metabolism. Articles will be accepted based on peer-reviews, priority, and editorial decision. Invited reviews, mini-reviews and viewpoints on relevant pathophysiological and clinical topics, as well as Editorials on articles appearing in the Journal, are published. Unsolicited Editorials will be evaluated by the editorial team. Outcomes of scientific meetings, as well as guidelines and position statements, may be submitted. The Journal also considers special feature articles in the field of endocrine genetics and epigenetics, as well as articles devoted to novel methods and techniques in endocrinology.
Endocrine covers controversial, clinical endocrine issues. Meta-analyses on endocrine and metabolic topics are also accepted. Descriptions of single clinical cases and/or small patients studies are not published unless of exceptional interest. However, reports of novel imaging studies and endocrine side effects in single patients may be considered. Research letters and letters to the editor related or unrelated to recently published articles can be submitted.
Endocrine covers leading topics in endocrinology such as neuroendocrinology, pituitary and hypothalamic peptides, thyroid physiological and clinical aspects, bone and mineral metabolism and osteoporosis, obesity, lipid and energy metabolism and food intake control, insulin, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, hormones of male and female reproduction, adrenal diseases pediatric and geriatric endocrinology, endocrine hypertension and endocrine oncology.
