【 摘 要 】

Background-Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent and is associated with dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease. The impact of correcting vitamin D deficiency on blood lipids, strong cardiovascular disease prognostic factors, is unknown. Methods and Results-To determine relationships between 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and lipids, we analyzed 4.06 million deidentified patient laboratory test results from September 2009 through February 2011. We performed a cross-sectional study of this population to determine associations between 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and lipids across clinically defined strata. We also conducted a retrospective cohort study of vitamin D deficient patients to investigate how changes in 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels relate to changes in lipid levels. After exclusions, 107 811 patients with serial testing were selected for cross-sectional analysis. Compared with vitamin D deficient patients (<20 ng/mL), those with optimal levels (>= 30 ng/mL) had lower mean total cholesterol (-1.9 mg/dL; 95% confidence interval [ 95% CI], -1.2 to -2.7; P<0.0001), lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (-5.2 mg/dL; 95% CI, -4.5 to -5.8; P<0.0001), higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (4.8 mg/dL; 95% CI, 4.5-5.0; P<0.0001), and lower triglycerides (-7.5 mg/dL; 95% CI, -6.2 to -8.7; P<0.0001). For the retrospective cohort analysis, raising vitamin D levels from <20 to >= 30 ng/mL (n=6260), compared with remaining at <20 ng/mL (n=2332), was associated with a mean increase in total cholesterol (0.77 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.18-1.36; P=0.01) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (0.42 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.08-0.76; P=0.02) but nonsignificant changes in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (0.32 mg/dL; 95% CI, -0.01 to 0.66; P=0.06) and triglycerides (0.04 mg/dL; 95% CI, -2.16 to 2.23 mg/dL; P=0.97). Conclusions-Although vitamin D deficiency is associated with an unfavorable lipid profile in cross-sectional analyses, correcting for a deficiency might not translate into clinically meaningful changes in lipid concentrations; however, data from intervention trials are required to confirm these findings.
