Abstract

Serum vitamin D level and vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene FokI polymorphisms were detected in 200 single full-term pregnant women who gave birth in our hospital during 2016 to 2018. The newborns with birth weight 30 nmol/L carrying F allele (FF+Ff) were set as reference, the risk of FGR in pregnant women with serum 25(OH)D level ≤ 30 nmol/L carrying ff genotype was increased (OR=6.14, 95%CI: 2.13-13.23). The polymorphism of VDR gene FokI may be associated with the occurrence of FGR. In the case of vitamin D deficiency, the influence of ff genotype on FGR is more tangible.
