Title

ASSOCIATION OF SERUM 25 (OH) VITAMIN D3 CONCENTRATION WITH SEVERITY OF MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

Pages

  54-58

Abstract

 Background: There is a known inverse association between solar radiation and the prevalence of MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS). Some studies have investigated the link between vitamin D and MS. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible association between serum 25 (OH) vitamin D3 concentration and the SEVERITY of disease in Iranian patients with MS.Methods: Patients with relapsing–remitting MS underwent neurological examination, including measurement of EXPANDED DISABILITY STATUS SCALE (EDSS) score, and were categorized by disease SEVERITY into mild (0£EDSS£3), moderate (3.5£EDSS£5.5) and severe (6£EDSS). Serum concentrations of 25 (OH) vitamin D3, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and parathyroid hormone were also measured.Results: A total of 78 (73.1% female) patients with MS were evaluated. The mean (± standard deviation) of age was 33.9±9.2 years. The mean (± standard error) serum concentrations of 25 (OH) vitamin D3 were 36.6±5.1 mg/dL, 50.1±12.6 mg/dLand 19.8±6.5 mg/dL in patients with mild, moderate and severe disease, respectively. There was a statistically significant inverse correlation between 25 (OH) vitamin D3 concentration and EDSS score (P=0.016, r=–0.273 by Spearman rank correlation test), which was observed in women only (P=0.021, r=–0.305). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis suggested that a serum 25 (OH) vitamin D3 concentration cutoff of 16.5 mg/dL could differentiate patients with mild/moderate MS from severe disease with 74.6% accuracy.Conclusion: Our findings further support the association between vitamin D and disease SEVERITY in MS.
