Circulating serum vitamin D levels in relation to metabolic syndrome in children: A systematic review and dose–response meta‐analysis of epidemiologic studies

Abstract: Findings from epidemiologic studies that evaluated the relationship between serum vitamin D levels and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in children were contradictory. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis on the relation of serum 25(OH)D levels and MetS in children. A comprehensive search was conducted in electronic databases, up to November 2020. Eleven cross-sectional studies that reported the link between circulating vitamin D levels and MetS in children were included in the analysis. Combining 11 ef… Show more

“…Some systematic reviews and meta-analyses have examined the relationship between blood vitamin D levels and non-communicable disease (NCDs) and their findings were in line with ours ( 17 , 35 37 ). Based on our previous analysis, serum vitamin D was found to be inversely linked to odds of abdominal obesity in a dose-response fashion, in adults ( 17 ).…”

“…In another investigation, the highest value of serum vitamin D was significantly associated with a 50% lower risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in children. Furthermore, for every 10 ng/mL increase in serum vitamin D, the risk of MetS in children was linearly lowered by 12% ( 35 ). Moreover, a previous meta-analysis showed a weak significant inverse correlation between serum vitamin D level and serum triglycerides (TG) levels in the pediatric age group; but no significant correlation was observed in case of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-c) concentrations, or total cholesterol (TC) ( 36 ).…”

“…Notably, a significant increase in MetS and VD deficiency among young and middle-aged adults has been observed. Yet, previous studies have predominantly focused on children [30,31], postmenopausal women [32,33], and older populations [24,34,35]. Therefore, our study's focus on investigating the association of circulating 25(OH)D and MetS risk in young and middle-aged individuals is a novel and crucial contribution to the field.…”

“…However, the results in pediatrics remain controversial. 9 In this sense, the present review aimed to observe the correlation between the metabolic syndrome, its individual parameters and hypovitaminosis D in children and adolescents.…”
