Correlation of vitamin D deficiency and hyperparathyroidism with anemic in female Iraqi

Abstract EN

Vitamin D deficiency and anemia are common in the Middle East, and vitamin D deficiency and hyperparathyroidism have been study to be linked with an increased incidence of anemia.

In this study, that vitamin D deficiency and hyperpara-thyroidism may be connected with anemia in female Iraqi population was tested.

Aim: To investigated correlation of hyperparathyroidism and vitamin D3 levels deficiency and insufficiency with anemia in female.

Materials and Methods: This study was conducted at Al-Hussein Medical City/ Al-Husain Teaching Hospital / Kerbala-Iraq.

All samples 176 apparently are healthy female subjects as controls 80 and 96 female patients non- obese having iron deficiency anemia during the period from Nov.

, 2015 to Sep., 2016with age ranged between (15- 50) years.

The data of body mass index (BMI), Vitamin D3, serum iron levels, total iron binding capacity, creatinine ,complete blood count in blood were measured, alkaline phosphate, phosphorus and calcium.

Results: In females, the prevalence of anemia was significantly associated with vitamin D deficiency independent of parathyroid hormone levels (p=0.001).

In females, the prevalence of anemia appeared to be significantly associated with hyperparathyroidism (odds ratio; 95% confidence interval; P = 0.01) Conclusion: It was concluding that anemia female patients have significantly low levels of serum vitamin D3and high levels of serum parathyroid hormone than that in healthy.

High prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was stronger in female population of Kerbala city in Iraq.

Additional studies to determine whether vitamin D3 supplementation could be used to treat anemia are acceptable
