The objective of the study was to investigate the possible association between maternal/neonatal 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OHD) levels and development of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).
One hundred and forty-five preterm infants ⩽36 weeks of gestation were enrolled. 25-OHD levels were determined in maternal/neonatal blood samples that were obtained at the time of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit.
Of the 145 enrolled patients, 26 (18%) developed NEC. Maternal/neonatal 25-OHD levels in the NEC group were significantly lower than those of the no-NEC group (P=0.001 and 0.004, respectively). In univariate logistic regression analysis, both maternal/neonatal vitamin D levels were a significant predictor of NEC (odds ratio (OR): 0.92 and 0.89; P<0.001 and P<0.005, respectively). However, multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only maternal vitamin D level was a significant predictor of NEC (OR: 0.86, P<0.0009).
This is the first study to propose a possible association between maternal/neonatal 25-OHD levels and subsequent development of NEC in preterm infants.
本研究旨在调查母体/新生儿25-羟基维生素D(25-OHD)水平与坏死性小肠结肠炎(NEC)发生之间的可能关联。
纳入145例孕周≤36周的早产儿。在新生儿重症监护病房入院时采集母体/新生儿血样,测定其中25-OHD水平。
145例纳入患者中,26例(18%)发生了NEC。NEC组的母体/新生儿25-OHD水平显著低于无NEC组(分别为P = 0.001和0.004)。在单因素逻辑回归分析中,母体/新生儿维生素D水平均是NEC的显著预测因素(优势比(OR):分别为0.92和0.89;P < 0.001和P < 0.005)。然而,多因素逻辑回归分析显示,只有母体维生素D水平是NEC的显著预测因素(OR:0.86,P < 0.0009)。
本研究首次提出母体/新生儿25-OHD水平与早产儿随后发生NEC之间可能存在关联。
