25 (OH) Vitamin D level and Calcium/Phosphorus Metabolism Disorders in Patients Living with HIV in Abidjan

Abstract: Aims: The present study was to evaluate the serum calcium level, phosphorus and 25 (OH) vitamin D subjects during HIV infection; precisely in patients living with HIV (PLHIV). Study Design: Prospective and experimental study, involving a cohort of blood samples from HIVnegative and positive subjects.

“…In this our study, calcium levels are normal, however we observed hyperphosphatemia in all HIV-infected individuals. This confirms the disruption of phosphocalcic balance reported by Boyvin et al [6]. This situation is thought to be due to vitamin D deficiency [23] as observed in this study among PLHIV.…”

“…In Côte d'Ivoire, few studies about the mechanism of regulation of phosphocalcic homeostasis in HIV-positive Ivorian patients have been undertaken [6]. The main objective of this study was therefore to determine the 25hydroxyvitamin D 3 and parathyroid status of HIVpositive patients.…”

“…In this study we found that 9% of healthy subjects presented vitamin D deficiency [defined as 25(OH)D levels <20 ng/mL]. This is much lower than results obtained in a recent study conducted in Abidjan that found the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in a control population of 110 HIV-negative subjects was 33% [22]. One of the reasons for this discrepancy is the assay used for 25(OH)D measurements.…”
