THE RELATION OF 25-HYDROXYVITAMIN D LEVEL WITH METABOLIC SYNDROME IN TYPE 2 DIABETES MELITUS PATIENTS
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a complex metabolic disorder like hyperglycemia, obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Vitamin D controls genes associated with regulation of insulin and renin production. The aim of this study was to analyze the relation between total levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and the incidence of MS in type 2 DM patients.Methods: This case control study was conducted from October to November 2018 in Dr Moewardi Hospital Surakarta in 84 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. All subjects were 34-75 years old. The research data were analyzed with a 2x2 test table to determine the odd ratio (OR) of each study variable, then multivariate analysis with logistic regression then continued.Results: The mean total level of 25(OH)D is 18.01 ± 6.10 ng/dl. Bivariate and multivariate OR analysis showed that poor glycemic control with the incidence of MS (OR: 11.154; 95% Cl: 3.933-31.631; p = 0.001); female sex (OR : 1.788; 95% Cl: 0.750-4.261; p = 0.188); age < 50 year (OR: 1.644; 95% Cl: 0.614-4.404; p = 0.321); and total 25(OH)D deficiency (OR: 1.250; 95% Cl: 0.317-2.022; p = 0.637).Conclusion: total 25(OH)D level is not associated with the incidence of MS in the type 2 DM patients. Further study was needed using by healthy group control to explain the role of vitamin D in type 2 DMKeywords: type 2 DM, metabolic syndrome, 25(OH)D
