Abstract
ObjectiveThe research aimed to investigate the Association between Vitamin D deficiency and childhood obesity and its Impact on children’s serum calcium, alkaline Phosphatase, and bone Age MethodsThe study analyzed clinical data from 159 school-aged children who underwent medical examinations. The children were divided into a 25-(OH)D3 deficiency group and a non-25-(OH)D3 deficiency group based on their serum 25-hydroxy Vitamin D3 levels. The two groups were compared regarding BMI, TC, TG, FBG, HbA1c, Ca, ALP, and bone age differences. ResultsIndividuals with a deficiency in 25-(OH)D3 exhibited higher levels of BMI, TC, TG, and ALP, and lower levels of Ca and bone age than those without the deficiency. These differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Further analysis revealed a negative association between 25-(OH)D3 levelsa positive correlation between Ca and bone age, and a positive correlation with, BMI, TC, TG, and ALP. ConclusionThe deficiency of 25-(OH)D3 in school-aged children is linked to obesity and impacts bone growth. Monitoring vitamin D levels is crucial for clinical practitioners.
