Objective: To investigate the relationship between vitamin D level in serum and cardiovascular diseases.
Study Design: Prospective study.
Place and duration: Study was conducted in Choudhary Parvez Ellahi Institute of Cardiology in one year duration from 1st February 2020 to 1st February 2021.
Methodology: One hundred and fifty patients presented with cardiac illness at emergency department were enrolled in study. The serum levels of vitamin D were divided into three categories: deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency. SPSS version 23 was used for data analysis. P value ≤0.5 was taken as significant.
Results: Serum 25(OH) D levels in both the groups were shown in table 3. In the non-CVD Group, 48% of patients were 25(OH)D deficient. 56% of patients had insufficient and (40%) patients had sufficient serum 25(OH)D levels. While, in CVD Group, n=44 (58.6%) patients were 25(OH)D deficient. 37.3% of patients had insufficient, and 61.3% patients had sufficient serum 25(OH)D levels. The results were statistically significant.
Conclusion: Lower levels of serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D were associated with higher rates of cardiovascular diseases. Further studies are needed to recommend vitamin D supplements to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases
