All vitamin D tests carried out for outpatients aged 18 years or older during the last 3 years at an Italian University Hospital was reviewed. The serum vitamin D concentrations measured since the Italian coronavirus diseases 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown to present did not significantly differ from the previous 2 years (78 vs. 77 nmol/l; P = 0.277), whilst the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was found to be even marginally lower in 2020 (16.0% vs. 17.9%; P = 0.003). These results suggest that vitamin D deficiency in our province has not increased during the Italian COVID-19 outbreak or in correspondence with the nationwide lockdown.
对一所意大利大学医院在过去3年里为18岁及以上门诊患者进行的所有维生素D检测进行了回顾。自意大利2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）封锁以来至目前所测量的血清维生素D浓度与前两年相比无显著差异（78 vs. 77 nmol/l；P = 0.277），而维生素D缺乏的患病率在2020年甚至略低（16.0% vs. 17.9%；P = 0.003）。这些结果表明，在意大利COVID-19疫情期间或全国封锁期间，我省的维生素D缺乏情况并未增加。
