Key Points

To examine the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and its link to disease severity in hospitalized children with acute respiratory infections.
Analyzed clinical data of pediatric inpatients diagnosed with ARI
Assessed vitamin D levels in relation to disease severity
Evaluated clinical outcomes based on vitamin D status
Vitamin D deficiency was prevalent among pediatric patients with ARI
Deficient children experienced greater disease severity
Adverse clinical outcomes were more common in deficient patients

Implication

Research shows increased disease severity in children with acute respiratory infections and vitamin D deficiency, indicating potential health risks.

Abstract

Vitamin D deficiency was strongly associated with increased disease severity and adverse clinical outcomes in pediatric inpatients with ARI.
