Some studies have associated low vitamin D levels with the risk of tuberculosis (TB), but its association in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected mothers in a TB-endemic region has not been well studied. We conducted a nested 1:2 case-control study among HIV-infected mothers in western India to evaluate the association between maternal vitamin D levels and the risk of postpartum TB. Vitamin D insufficiency, moderate deficiency and severe deficiency were observed in a high proportion of HIV-infected mothers, but were not associated with the risk of postpartum TB.
一些研究将维生素 D 水平低与结核病(TB)风险相关联,但在结核病流行地区的 HIV 感染母亲中,其相关性尚未得到很好的研究。我们在印度西部进行了一项嵌套的 1:2 病例对照研究,以评估母体维生素 D 水平与产后结核病风险之间的关系。在 HIV 感染的母亲中,观察到相当比例的维生素 D 不足、中度缺乏和严重缺乏,但与产后 TB 风险无关。
