ABSTRACT

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Several studies have evaluated the role of low 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD3) in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and have presented controversial results. The metabolic processes that culminate in T2DM begin under prediabetic conditions. Our aim was to analyze the association between 25OHD3 and glucose metabolism in individuals who were free from but at elevated risk of diabetes. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study at a tertiary hospital. METHODS: Anthropometric and laboratory profiles were determined in patients with one or more of the following risk factors: hypertension; body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2; waist circumference > 80 cm for women and > 94 cm for men; first-degree relatives with diabetes; women with large-for-gestational-age newborns or with gestational T2DM; HDL-cholesterol (high density lipoprotein) < 35 mg/dl; and triglycerides > 250 mg/dl. The patients were divided into two groups: one with prediabetes (abnormal fasting plasma glucose or oral glucose tolerance test) and the other with normal glucose (euglycemic). RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference between the prediabetic group (n = 38) and euglycemic group (n = 15) regarding age (66.4 ± 10.6 versus 62.6 ± 9.1 years), gender (52.6 versus 73.3% female) and BMI (30.1 ± 4.61 versus 27.9 ± 4.7 kg/m2). Low serum levels of 25OHD3 were found in both groups, without any statistically significant difference between them (29.1 ± 11.8 versus 26.87 ± 9.2 ng/dl). CONCLUSION: There was no association between 25OHD3 levels and the clinical or laboratorial variables analyzed. .


CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: Vários estudos já avaliaram o papel da 25-hidroxivitamina D (25OHD3) na patogênese do diabetes tipo 2 (DM2) e apresentaram resultados controversos. Os processos metabólicos que culminam no DM2 se iniciam no pré-diabetes. Nosso objetivo foi analisar a associação da 25OHD3 com o metabolismo glicêmico em indivíduos sem diagnóstico mas com alto risco para diabetes. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo transversal em hospital terciário. MÉTODOS: Medidas antropométricas e laboratoriais foram determinadas em pacientes com um ou mais dos fatores de risco: hipertensão; índice de massa corpórea (IMC) ≥ 25 kg/m2; circunferência abdominal > 80 cm no sexo feminino e > 94 cm no sexo masculino; parentes de primeiro grau com diabetes; mulheres com filho nascido grande para idade gestacional ou com DM2 na gravidez; colesterol HDL (high density lipoprotein) < 35 mg/dl e triglicerídeo > 250 mg/dl. Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos: um com pré-diabetes (glicemia de jejum ou teste de tolerância oral à glicose alterados) e outro com glicose normal (euglicêmicos). RESULTADOS: Entre pré-diabéticos (n = 38) e euglicêmicos (n = 15) não houve diferença estatística na idade (66,4 ± 10,6 versus 62,6 ± 9,1 anos), gênero (52,6 versus 73,3% feminino) e IMC (30,1 ± 4,61 versus 27,9 ± 4,7 kg/m2). Baixos niveis séricos de 25OHD3 foram encontrados nos dois grupos, sem diferença estatística entre eles (29,1 ± 11,8 versus 26,87 ± 9,2 ng/dl). CONCLUSÃO: Não houve associação entre os níveis de 25OHD3 e as variáveis clínicas e laboratoriais analisadas. .
