Median 25(OH)D levels were lower in severe phenotypes compared with milder phenotypes. The SIDD-like group, characterised by marked insulin deficiency, showed 3.68-fold higher odds of vitamin D insufficiency (< 30 ng/mL) compared with the MARD-like phenotype (p = 0.013).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The metabolic phenotypes were explored in a primary care T2DM cohort, supporting their reproducibility across clinical settings. Vitamin D status varied by phenotype severity, with more severe phenotypes more likely to exhibit insufficiency.</p>","PeriodicalId":158,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism","volume":" ","pages":"10603-10614"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2026-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13646376/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148838734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
