Özet
Since vitamin D is synthesized from cholesterol, it is claimed to be associated with insulin resistance, suggesting that there may be an association between vitamin D glucose and lipids. For this reason, we aimed to investigate a relationship between vitamin D and biochemical parameters, including glucose and lipids. This cross-sectional study included 198 patients .admitted to the family medicine outpatient clinic between June and December 2016. There was no significant correlation between vitamin D and serum glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, calcium, magnesium, sodium, TSH, and body mass index values in both men and women. There was a correlation between vitamin D and total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels in the younger subjects below 41 years (p=0.002). Regression analysis with other variables showed no statistical significance between vitamin D levels on LDL-C levels (P=0.309). Despite previous studies, our study did not confirm the effects of vitamin D on serum glucose, lipid, calcium, and other biochemical parameters. However, these results suggest that the standard up-to-date literature showing the relationship between vitamin D and various metabolic and hormonal disorders may need to be confirmed by new large-scale studies.
