Antenatal vitamin D status may be associated with the risk of adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes; however, the benefits of vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy remain unknown.
We conducted a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized trial to evaluate the effect of high-dose prenatal 3rd trimester vitamin D3 supplementation on maternal and neonatal (cord blood) serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration (primary biochemical efficacy outcome) and maternal serum calcium concentration (primary safety measure). Eligibility criteria were pregnant women aged 18 to <35 years, at 26 to 29 weeks gestation, and residing in Dhaka, Bangladesh. 160 women were randomized by 1:1 allocation to one of two parallel intervention groups; placebo (n = 80) or 35,000 IU/week of vitamin D3 (n = 80) until delivery. All participants, study personnel and study investigators were blind to treatment allocation.
Mean maternal 25(OH)D concentration was similar in the vitamin D and placebo groups at baseline (45 vs. 44 nmol/L; p = 0.66), but was significantly higher in the vitamin D group vs. placebo group among mothers at delivery (134 vs. 38 nmol/L; p < 0.001) and newborns (cord blood: 103 vs. 39; p < 0.001). In the vitamin D group, 95% of neonates and 100% of mothers attained 25(OH)D >50 nmol/L, versus 21% mothers and 19% of neonates in the placebo group. No participants met criteria for hypercalcemia, there were no known supplement-related adverse events, and major pregnancy outcomes were similar between groups.
Antenatal 3rd-trimester vitamin D3 supplementation (35,000 IU/week) significantly raised maternal and cord serum 25(OH)D concentrations above 50 nmol/L in almost all participants without inducing hypercalcemia or other observed safety concerns. Doses up to 35,000 IU/week may be cautiously used in further research aimed at establishing the clinical effects and safety of vitamin D3 supplementation in pregnancy.
This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01126528).
产前维生素D状态可能与不良妊娠及新生儿结局风险相关;然而,孕期补充维生素D的益处仍不明确。
我们开展了一项双盲安慰剂对照随机试验,以评估孕晚期大剂量补充维生素D3对母体及新生儿(脐血)血清25-羟维生素D(25(OH)D)浓度(主要生化疗效指标)及母体血清钙浓度(主要安全性指标)的影响。纳入标准为年龄18至<35岁、孕26至29周且居住在孟加拉国达卡的孕妇。160名女性按1:1分配随机进入两个平行干预组之一;安慰剂组(n = 80)或每周35,000 IU维生素D3组(n = 80)直至分娩。所有参与者、研究人员及研究调查员均对治疗分配不知情。
维生素D组和安慰剂组基线时母体25(OH)D平均浓度相似(45对44 nmol/L;p = 0.66),但分娩时维生素D组母亲的该浓度显著高于安慰剂组(134对38 nmol/L;p < 0.001),新生儿(脐血)中也是如此(103对39;p < 0.001)。在维生素D组中,95%的新生儿和100%的母亲25(OH)D>50 nmol/L,而安慰剂组中这一比例分别为21%的母亲和19%的新生儿。无参与者符合高钙血症标准,无已知的与补充剂相关的不良事件,且两组间主要妊娠结局相似。
孕晚期补充维生素D3(每周35,000 IU)可使几乎所有参与者的母体及脐血血清25(OH)D浓度显著升高至50 nmol/L以上,且未诱发高钙血症或其他观察到的安全问题。在旨在确定孕期补充维生素D3的临床效果和安全性的进一步研究中,可谨慎使用高达每周35,000 IU的剂量。
本试验已在ClinicalTrials.gov注册(NCT01126528)。
