Abstract Background/Introduction Increasing vitamin D intake through food supplements or fortification is far from revealing strong contribution to cardiac health. On the other side, the separate evaluation of dietary vitamin D intake with cardiac health is limited. Purpose The aim of the present work was to evaluate the association between dietary vitamin D intake and 10-year first fatal/non fatal CVD, conventional CVD risk factors and surrogate markers related with inflammation, coagulation, insulin resistance, liver and renal function. Methods ATTICA prospective study was conducted during 2001–2012 and included n=1,514 men and n=1,528 women (aged >18 years old) from the greater Athens area, Greece. Dietary assessment was based on a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Daily intake of vitamin D was calculated through standardized food database. Follow-up assessment of CVD (2011–2012) was achieved in n=2,020 participants (n=317 cases). Results Ranking from 1st to 3rd vitamin D tertile, CVD event was for men 24%, 17% and 12% (p=0.002) and for women 14%, 10% and 11% (p=0.59), respectively. Multiadjusted analysis revealed inverse associations between vitamin D and CVD in total sample [Hazard Ratio (HR)=0.76 95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) (0.60, 0.97)] and in men [HR=0.66 95% CI (0.49, 0.89)], lost after adjusting for inflammation/coagulation markers; for women no significant trends against hard CVD endpoints were observed. Regarding 10-year onset of conventional risk factors, inverse associations of vitamin D with hypertension in men [HR=0.62 95% CI (0.39, 0.99)] and transition to metabolically unhealthy status in women [HR=0.69 95% CI (0.51, 0.93)] were observed. Multiadjusted analyses revealed significant inverse associations for C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and fibrinogen in both sexes while only in women for insulin resistance. Conclusions Contradicting the neutral/modest associations in vitamin D supplementation trials, the present work revealed that increased food-generated vitamin D may protect against hard and intermediate CVD endpoints implying the existence of different paths between sexes.

Bivariate Analysis

Purpose: Overweight, obesity, hypertension (HTN), insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia have been recognized as cardiometabolic risk factors in adults. Early markers of cardiovascular disease in children are lacking. Low vitamin D (VITD) levels are associated with higher blood pressure, obesity and insulin resistance. We explored the association between traditional cardiometabolic risk factors and VITD levels with HTN status in adolescents. DESIGN METHODS: Cross-sectional pilot study in students from grades 9th - 12th in Puerto Rico. Fasting blood samples to estimate serum lipids, fasting glucose and vitamin D25OH levels were obtained, with anthropometric and blood pressure measurements. Variables described as mean [standard deviation (sd)] or frequencies and percentages as appropriate. Bivariate analysis using chi-square test; statistical significance was set at p<0.05. Results: 78 adolescents, mean age: 16 years were studied. Mean BMI: 23.8 (range 17-39); 19.2% (15/78) were overweight and 16.7% (13/78) were obese. Pre-HTN observed in 7.7% (6/78), with 1 HTN. Hypercholesterolemia (≥170 mg/dl): 16.9% 13/77), low HDL levels (≤ 40 mg/dl): 67.5% 23/77), and hypertriglyceridemia (≥ 110 mg/dl): 15.6% (12/77). VITD levels were low (< 30ng/dL) in 31% 24/77. Obese subjects were more likely to have insufficient VITD levels when compared with the non-obese, (61.5% vs 25%; p=0.02).At least 1 cardiometabolic risk factor was found in 69% (54/78); 33% (26/78) had 2 or more. Conclusion: Obesity is associated with low VITD levels and preHTN. Cardiometabolic risk factors are highly prevalent in our population. Interventions to prevent cardiovascular disease in Puerto Rican adolescents are required.
