In this study we investigated a possible association between vitamin D deficiency and SCFE. All children presenting with SCFE during the study period had their 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels measured as part of an overall metabolic, renal and endocrine status evaluation, which included measurement of body mass index (BMI). Vitamin D status was compared with age-, gender- and habitat-matched controls with acute trauma or sepsis presenting to our emergency department.<\/jats:p><jats:p>A total of 15 children (12 boys and three girls) with a mean age of 13 years (sd 1.81; 10 to 16) presented for treatment for SCFE during a two-year period beginning in January 2010. Renal and thyroid function was within the normal range in all cases. The mean BMI was 24.9\u00a0kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>(17.0 to 33.8), which was significantly higher than that of the controls (p = 0.006). There was a statistically significant difference between the mean values of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the children with SCFE and the controls (11.78\u00a0ng\/ml (sd 5.4) versus 27.06 ng\/ml (sd 5.53), respectively; p &lt; 0.001). We concluded that, along with high BMI, there is a significant association of vitamin D deficiency and SCFE in India.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2013;95-B:851\u20134.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.95b6.30806","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,5,30]],"date-time":"2013-05-30T08:42:50Z","timestamp":1369903370000},"page":"851-854","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1302\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["Slipped capital femoral epiphysis associated with vitamin D deficiency"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"95-B","author":[{"given":"V.","family":"Madhuri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Paediatric Orthopaedic Unit, Christian Medical College, Vellore 632 004, India."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.
