Overview

Cross-sectional analysis shows vitamin D deficiency correlates with calcium and lipid levels in obese children, indicating metabolic risk.

Key Points

  • Vitamin D deficiency is significantly associated with elevated cholesterol and triglycerides in obese children, emphasizing metabolic concerns.
  • 86% of the studied children had vitamin D levels below 20 ng/mL, with mean levels being 15.2 ng/mL, indicating a high prevalence of deficiency.
  • Biochemical analysis involved assessing calcium, magnesium, cholesterol, and triglycerides through standard methods, revealing nutrient imbalance.
  • Findings suggest that vitamin D deficiency may serve as an early biomarker for metabolic dysfunction in morbidly obese children.
