We estimated cord blood 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels of 50 term healthy neonates born in a tertiary care center of Kozhikode, Kerala, India. Vitamin D levels were normally distributed with a mean (SD) value of 11.36 (4.75) ng/mL and median (range) values of 10.85 (3.9-24.9) ng/mL. Majority of babies had values between 5 to 15 ng/mL. This study shows that even in tropical climates most of our neonates are born with deficient vitamin D levels.
我们估算了在印度喀拉拉邦科泽科德的一家三级护理中心出生的50名足月健康新生儿的脐带血25-羟基维生素D水平。维生素D水平呈正态分布,平均(标准差)值为11.36(4.75)ng/mL,中位数(范围)值为10.85(3.9 - 24.9)ng/mL。大多数婴儿的值在5至15 ng/mL之间。这项研究表明,即使在热带气候下,我们的大多数新生儿出生时维生素D水平仍不足。
