Is Vitamin D Deficiency a Risk Factor for Respiratory Distress Syndrome?

Abstract: None of the preterm infants in this study had normal vitamin D level, which underlined the burden of vitamin D deficiency in pregnant women and their offspring. RDS was more common in severely vitamin D-deficient preterms. Determination of vitamin D status of the mothers and appropriate supplementation might be a valuable strategy to reduce RDS, in addition to antenatal steroids. Besides, since vitamin D is a regulatory factor in many organs during fetal development, long-term effects of in utero vitamin D def… Show more

“…2426 Preterm infants with lower 25(OH) vitamin D are also at higher risk of acute respiratory morbidity 26, 27 and BPD. 28 ELGAN are at high risk for low serum vitamin D concentrations not only because transfer of vitamin D occurs later in gestation, 10, 11 but perhaps also because of maternal insufficiency.…”

“…Todos tuvieron niveles de 25 (OH) D menores de 75 nmol/L. No se encontró correlación entre edad gestacional y estatus de vitamina D. En un análisis no ajustado, el SDR se observó en un 28% del grupo con niveles menores a 25 nmol/L comparado con un 14% en aquellos con valores superiores, reduciendo la frecuencia de SDR en 3.34 veces en aquellos con los valores más altos 17 . Finalmente, en un estudio observacional, Koroglu y cols., encontraron un incremento promedio de 4 veces en el riesgo de desarrollar de DBP en comparación a aquellos sin este hallazgo 18 .…”
