Study on the correlation between Vitamin D and HbA1c in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality due to the development of complications, especially due to poor glycemic control. Besides its role in calcium homeostasis, Vitamin D has been involved in the pathophysiology as well as glycemic control of type 2 DM.
Methods: 100 patients diagnosed with type 2 DM were included. Vitamin D levels along with glycosylated haemoglobin were measured in all the individuals.
Results: Vitamin D deficiency was observed in 48% of the patients. Vitamin D levels were not associated with markers of glycemic control (HbA1c).
Conclusions: Hypovitaminosis D was observed nearly in half of the patients with type 2 diabetes, suggesting a potential for vitamin D supplementation in type 2 DM patients.
