Abstract
- Background: There has been a marked variance in the prevalence of Vitamin D deciency in India. Limited evidence is available regarding the correlation of Vitamin D with thyroid hormones in patients with Type II Diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Aims AND Objectives: To study the correlation of Vitamin D with thyroid hormones in patients with Type II Diabetes mellitus at tertiary health care in Tripura. Materials And Methods: Hundred patients with T2DM diagnosed as per American Diabetes Association (ADA) were studied in acrosssectional study which was conducted in the Department of Medicine at AGMC&GBP Hospital from January 2019 – June 2020. Blood tests were performed to estimate serum vitamin D level and thyroid prole and correlation was obtained with glycemic parameters. Results: T2DM was more prevalent in the age group of 60-70 years with mean age being 55.28 years. Majority had (52%) hypothyroidism, 38% had had vitamin D deciency and 13% had vitamin D insufciency. Majority of the Vitamin D decient patients TSH > 5 µIU/mL (31%). Linear regression analysis showed that inverse relationship between TSH and Vitamin D, HbA1c and Vitamin D. An equation of Vitamin D level estimation was derived as Vitamin D level = 28.48 – 0.81 * HbA1c level. Conclusion: Prevalence of vitamin d deciency is more prevalent among hypothyroid diabetics and the severity of the Vitamin D deciency correlated with hypothyroid status.
