RESUMO
Objective To evaluate vitamin D status in middle-aged subjects in Beijing and explore the correlation between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D] levels and dyslipidemia.Methods A total of 448 individuals over 40 years old were enrolled in the cross-sectional survey.The general information,blood biochemical and lipid profiles and serum 25 (OH) D levels were collected.The subjects were either divided into two groups (the dyslipidemia group and the non-dyslipidemia group) based on the lipid levels,or four groups according to quartiles of 25 (OH) D levels.The association between 25 (OH) D levels and dyslipidemia risk was analyzed by a logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 234 cases were in dyslipidemia group,which accounted for 52.23％ of the subjects.The serum 25 (OH) D levels were significantly lower in the dyslipidemia group than in the non-dyslipidemia group both in men and in women (all P ＜ 0.05).The median serum 25 (OH) D level in the total subjects was 15.7 (12.2,20.1) μg/L with 91.1％ subjects of serum 25 (OH) D level ＜ 30 μg/L.The proportion of subjects with dyslipidemia (high TC,high TG,high LDL-C,or low HDL-C) increased with the decrease of 25 (OH) D level quartiles (P ＜0.05).After adjustment of confounding factors,the logistic regression analysis showed that subjects in the lowest 25 (OH) D quartile group had 143％ higher risks for dyslipidemia than those in the highest quartile group.Conclusion These findings indicate that 25 (OH) D insufficiency is highly prevalent among middleaged individuals and it may be associated with the risk of dyslipidemia.
