Vitamin D deficiency is a well-established risk factor for\n bone disease, but emerging data suggest that altered vitamin D homeostasis\n may play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),\n dyslipidemia hypertension, and other cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The aim\n of this study was to investigate the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in\n patients with T2DM with\/without CVD, to correlate it with anthropometric and\n metabolic parameters and to determine the predictors of vitamin D\n deficiency. Methods. A total of 88 patients with T2DM (49 male\/39 female,\n aged 61.0 ? 0.9 yrs, body mass index (BMI) 29.9 ? 0.4 kg\/m2) and 67 patients\n (44 male\/23 female, aged 63.6 ? 1.0 yrs, BMI 29.2 ? 0.5 kg\/m2) with T2DM and\n CVD (myocardial infarction in 57 patients and angina pectoris in 10\n patients) were included in this study. These patients were compared with 87\n healthy subjects (35 male\/52 female, aged 52.8 ? 1.4 yrs, BMI 27.2 ? 0.5\n kg\/m2). Weight, height, waist circumference and BMI were recorded in all\n patients. Also, total cholesterol, triglycerides, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and\n 25-hydroxy-vitamin D [25(OH)D] levels were measured in all. According to\n 25(OH)D level, all subjects were divided into three categories: severe\n vitamin D deficiency (? 15 ng\/mL), vitamin D insufficiency (15-20 ng\/mL) and\n vitamin D sufficiency (20 ng\/mL). We correlated vitamin D levels with\n anthropometric and metabolic status and determined the predictors of vitamin\n D deficiency. Results. Severe vitamin D deficiency was registered in 16.1%\n healthy subjects, in 21.6% patients with T2DM and in 26.9% patients with\n T2DM and CVD. Patients with T2DM who were vitamin D deficient had increased\n weight, waist circumference, cholesterol and triglyceride levels when\n compared with patients with T2DM who had sufficient vitamin D level. 25(OH)D\n levels correlated with BMI and waist circumference in all subjects, but did\n not correlate with metabolic parameters (lipids, HbA1c). The best predictors\n of vitamin D level in all subjects were weight, waist circumference and BMI.\n Conclusion. The high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in patients with\n T2DM and particularly in patients with T2DM and CVD suggests that\n supplementation with vitamin D may be beneficial although there is still not\n sufficient evidence for recommending prescribing vitamin D.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2298\/vsp110713035k","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,28]],"date-time":"2012-09-28T19:29:33Z","timestamp":1348860573000},"page":"163-169","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Body weight and waist circumference as predictors of vitamin D deficiency in patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease"],"prefix":"10.2298","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Sreten","family":"Kavaric","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Internal Medicine, Clinical Center Montenegro, Podgorica, Montenegro"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Milica","family":"Vuksanovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"PZU Dr Vuksanovic, Bar, Montenegro"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dragica","family":"Bozovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department for Biochemical Analyses, Clinical Center Montenegro, Podgorica, Montenegro"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marko","family":"Jovanovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Organizational Sciences, Belgrade"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Veljko","family":"Jeremic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Organizational Sciences, Belgrade"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zoran","family":"Radojicic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Organizational Sciences, Belgrade"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6793-5527","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sandra","family":"Pekic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Diseases of Metabolism, Clinical Center of Serbia, Belgade + Faculty of Medicine, Belgrade"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vera","family":"Popovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Diseases of Metabolism, Clinical Center of Serbia, Belgade + Faculty of Medicine, Belgrade"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1078","container-title":["Vojnosanitetski pregled","Military Medical and Pharmaceutical Journal of Serbia"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,29]],"date-time":"2023-05-29T11:10:40Z","timestamp":1685358640000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/doiserbia.nb.rs\/Article.aspx?ID=0042-84501200035K"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2013]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2298\/vsp110713035k","relation":{},"ISSN":["0042-8450","2406-0720"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0042-8450","type":"print"},{"value":"2406-0720","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013]]}}}
