Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether vitamin D deficiency was present in adults who admitted to our hospital; To determine whether there is a difference between 25- hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH D) levels according to age, sex and seasons. Materials and Methods: Between years 2018-2019; 23,773 patients who admitted to our hospital between winter and summer months were evaluated and age, sex and vitamin D levels were divided into groups according to months. Serum 25-OH D level 100 toxicity. The data were evaluated by the SPSS 22.00 program. One-way Anova test was used in the evaluation of the data. p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: In our study, 17,673 (74.34%) women and 6,100 (25.66%) men were included. The mean vitamin D levels of the patients (16.60 ± 10.83 ng / mL) were in women (16.51 ± 11.04 ng / mL) and in men (16.88 ± 10.19 ng / mL). When the mean vitamin D levels were compared to investigate the seasonal changes in vitamin D deficiency, it was statistically significant in both male and female patients among age groups. Conclusion: In our study, severe vitamin D deficiency was found in patients admitted to our hospital. Vitamin D levels were lower in female and in winter.Considering that vitaminD deficiency is associated with many important diseases,foods enriched with vitamin D or vitamin D supplementation gain more importance.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı hastanemize başvuran erişkinlerde D vitamini eksikliği olup olmadığını belirlemek; yaşa, cinsiyete ve mevsimlere göre 25- Hidroksi vitamin D (25-OH D) düzeyleri arasında fark olup olmadığını tespit etmektir. Materyal ve Metot: 2018-2019 yılları arasında kış ve yaz mevsimi aylarında hastanemize başvuran 23.773 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Kişiler yaş, cinsiyet ve D vitamini düzeyleri aylara göre gruplara ayrıldı. Serum 25-OH D düzeyinin 100 toksisite olarak kabul edildi.Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tek yönlü varyans analizi testi kullanıldı.İstatistiksel analiz için SPSS 22.0 programı kullanıldı. p<0,005 anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular: Çalışmamızda kişilerin 17.673 (% 74,34) kadın ve 6.100 (% 25,66) erkek idi. Hastaların D vitamini düzeyleri ortalaması (16,60±10,83 ng/mL), kadınlarda (16,51±11,04 ng/mL), erkeklerde (16,88±10,19 ng/mL) idi. D vitamini yetersizliğinde mevsimsel değişiklikleri incelemek için ortalama D vitamini düzeyleri karşılaştırıldığında yaş grupları arasında hem erkek hem de kadın hastalarda istatistiksel olarak anlamlılık mevcuttu (p<0,001). Sonuç: Hastanemize başvuran hastalarda ciddi D vitamini yetersizliği tespit edilmiştir. Kadın hastalarda ve kış aylarında ölçülen D vitamini düzeyleri daha düşüktü. D vitamin eksikliğinin birçok önemli hastalığa eşlik ettiği düşünülürse D vitamininden zenginleştirilmiş yiyecekler veya D vitamini destek tedavisi daha fazla önem kazanmaktadır.
