This study examined the associations between vitamin D status, bone mineral content (BMC), areal bone mineral density (aBMD), and markers of calcium homeostasis in preschool-aged children. Children (n=488; age range: 1.8-6.0 y) were randomly recruited from Montreal. The distal forearm was scanned using a peripheral dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanner (Lunar PIXI; GE Healthcare, Fairfield, CT). A subset (n=81) had clinical dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (cDXA) scans (Hologic 4500A Discovery Series) of lumbar spine (LS) 1-4, whole body, and ultradistal forearm. All were assessed for plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and parathyroid hormone concentrations (Liaison; Diasorin), ionized calcium (ABL80 FLEX; Radiometer Medical A/S), and dietary vitamin D and calcium intakes by survey. Age (p<0.001) and weight-for-age Z-score (p<0.001) were positively associated with BMC and aBMD in all regression models, whereas male sex contributed positively to forearm BMC and aBMD. Having a 25(OH)D concentration of >75 nmol/L positively associated with forearm and whole body BMC and aBMD (p<0.036). Sun index related to (p<0.029) cDXA forearm and LS 1-4 BMC and whole-body aBMD. Nutrient intakes did not relate to BMC or aBMD. In conclusion, higher vitamin D status is linked to higher BMC and aBMD of forearm and whole body in preschool-aged children.
本研究旨在探讨学龄前儿童维生素 D 状况、骨矿物质含量(BMC)、骨矿物质密度(aBMD)和钙稳态标志物之间的关系。从蒙特利尔随机招募了 488 名儿童(年龄范围:1.8-6.0 岁)。使用外周双能 X 射线吸收仪(Lunar PIXI;GE Healthcare,Fairfield,CT)扫描远端前臂。从所有儿童中抽取了 81 名(n=81)进行临床双能 X 射线吸收仪(cDXA)扫描(Hologic 4500A Discovery Series),扫描部位包括腰椎(LS)1-4、全身和超远端前臂。所有儿童均进行了血浆 25-羟维生素 D [25(OH)D]和甲状旁腺激素浓度(Liaison;Diasorin)、离子钙(ABL80 FLEX;Radiometer Medical A/S)的检测,并通过问卷调查评估了饮食中维生素 D 和钙的摄入量。在所有回归模型中,年龄(p<0.001)和体重年龄 Z 评分(p<0.001)与 BMC 和 aBMD 呈正相关,而男性性别则对前臂 BMC 和 aBMD 有正向贡献。25(OH)D 浓度>75 nmol/L 与前臂和全身 BMC 和 aBMD 呈正相关(p<0.036)。太阳指数与 cDXA 前臂和 LS 1-4 BMC 和全身 aBMD 呈相关关系(p<0.029)。营养素摄入量与 BMC 或 aBMD 无关。总之,较高的维生素 D 状态与学龄前儿童前臂和全身 BMC 和 aBMD 较高相关。
