Summary Background There is increasing requests of Vitamin D test in many clinical settings in recent years. However, immunoassay performance is still a controversial topic. Several diagnostic manufacturers have launched automated 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH D) immunoassays in the past decade. We compared the performance of Abbott Architect 25-OH D Vitamin immunoassay with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry systems (LC-MS/MS) to evaluate immunoassay performance, especially in deficient groups. Methods Eighty human serum samples were analyzed with Architect 25-OH D vitamin kit (Abbott Diagnostics, Lake Forest, IL, USA) and LC-MS/MS systems (Zivak Technology, Istanbul, Turkey). The results of the immunoassay method were compared with the LC-MS/MS using Passing-Bablok regression analysis, Bland-Altman plots and correlation coefficient analysis. We also evaluated results in four levels of D vitamin as a severe deficiency, deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency. Results Architect showed 9.59% bias from LC-MS/MS with smaller mean. Passing-Bablok regression analysis demonstrated the value of 0.95 slope and had a constant bias with an intercept value of -4.25. Concordance correlation coefficient showed moderate agreement with the value of 0.918 (95% CI 0.878–0.945). Two methods revealed good interrater agreement (kappa = 0.738). While the smallest bias determined in deficiency (9.95%) group, the biggest was in insufficiency (15.15%). Conclusions Architect 25-OH D vitamin immunoassay can be used in routine measurements but had potential misclassification of vitamin D status in insufficient and deficient groups. Although there are recent standardization attempts in 25-OH D measurements, clinical laboratories must be aware of this method.

Hypovitaminosis D is prevalent worldwide; however, analytical bias in the measurement of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations may affect clinical treatment decisions and research. We performed parallel plasma 25(OH)D analyses using the Abbott Architect i2000 chemiluminescent immunoassay (CIA) and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) for paired samples from the same infants at 3 (n = 69), 6 (n = 79) and 12 months (n = 73) of age. To test agreement, we used Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient and corresponding 95% confidence interval, Bland–Altman’s limits of agreement, and Bradley–Blackwood (BB) test. Agreement was high at 3 months (coefficient between difference and mean −0.076; BB F = 0.825; p = 0.440), good at 12 months (−0.25; BB F = 2.41; p = 0.097) but missing at 6 months of age (−0.39; BB F = 12.30; p < 0.001). Overall, 18 infants had disparate results based on the cut-off point for vitamin D deficiency (25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L), particularly at three months, with seven (10%) infants deficient according to CIA but not LC–MS/MS, and four (6%) deficient by LC–MS/MS but not CIA. To our knowledge, this is the first study to show that the reported 25(OH)D concentration may be influenced by both age and assay type. Physicians and researchers should be aware of these pitfalls when measuring circulating 25(OH)D concentrations in infants and when developing treatment plans based on measured vitamin D status.

Background To assess the vitamin D nutritional status, serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration is measured. We used six automated 25(OH)D immunoassays (AIAs) available in Japan and certified by the Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) at the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention to assess the concordance of the assay results. Methods Serum total 25(OH)D concentrations in SRM 972a and 20 serum samples from patients were determined using three liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and six AIAs (pilot study), and an additional 110 serum samples were assessed by the six AIAs (surveillance study). The assay bias from the results of LC-MS/MS by Chiba University or consensus values (i.e. average of six AIAs) was estimated using the procedure described in CLSI document EP09-A3. Results LC-MS/MS at Chiba University could completely separate 25(OH)D2, 25(OH)D3 and 3-epi-25(OH)D3, and the observed values including total 25(OH)D in SRM 972a were all within ±1·SD of the assigned values. All AIAs produced results greater than ±3·SD. In the pilot study, four of the six AIAs had an average percentage bias, as estimated by confidence interval (CI), larger than ±5% (acceptance criterion in CLSI); the bias converged from −6.5% to 3.2% after adjustment by LC-MS/MS. In the surveillance study, 25(OH)D concentrations in AIAs all adjusted to LC-MS/MS converged within ±5% from consensus values. However, some AIAs showed negative or positive bias from the consensus values. Conclusions Current AIAs in Japan continue to lack standardization. Manufacturers should implement quality assurance strategies so that their values more closely align to those of standard reference material 972a.

Abstract Clinical interest to evaluate serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D] to assess Vitamin D status in health risks continue to increase exponentially over the last decade. Variability of 25(OH)D measurements remains controversial despite the international initiative Vitamin D Standardization Program (VDSP) to standardise the assays. The aim of the present study was to examine the correlation of 25(OH)D concentrations measured by different assays. We measured 25(OH)D using the new Abbott Alinity and DiaSorin LiaisonXL chemiluminescence immunoassays against the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-traceable liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. The immunoassay method were compared with the LC-MS/MS using Passing-Bablok regression and Bland-Altman analysis. Common 25(OH)D cut-point for classification of vitamin D deficiency was used to compare the different assays. 125 adult serum samples were randomly selected and measured 25(OH)D levels ranged between &lt;10 nmol/L to 290 nmol/L as determined by LC-MS/MS. Compared to the LC-MS/MS, both immunoassays demonstrated strong positive relationship based on Passing-Bablok regression analysis. The results were as follows: Abbott Alinity = 0.85x + 1.29nmol/L, 95% CI: -2.39 to 5.03 (r=0.94); DiaSorin LiaisonXL= 0.74x + 2.54nmol/L, 95% CI: -2.53 to 6.18 (r=0.91). Despite apparent good correlation, the overall mean bias was -12.6% for Abbott Alinity and -24.4% for DiaSorin LiaisonXL assays. A higher percentage of patients were classified as vitamin D deficient (25(OH)D &lt;50 nmol/L) using DiaSorin LiaisonXL (53%) followed by Abbott Alinity (49%), when compared with LC-MS/MS (34%). Using 25(OH)D ≥ 50nmol/L as “adequate” determined by LC-MS/MS method, 22% (18/82) and 28% (23/82) of patients were classified as “deficient” when analysed on Abbott Alinity and DiaSorin LiaisonXL respectively. Clinician should be aware of the inter-method variability among different Vitamin D assays despite standardization efforts. These differences could be due to cross-reactivity with 25(OH)D2 and vitamin D metabolites, such as 24,25(OH)2D and epimeric forms. 3-epi-25(OH)D is not separated chromatographically by the LC-MS/MS method used in this study. Therefore, the negative bias observed might be due to interference from the 3-epi-25(OH)D, whereby clinical significance is uncertain. It is present in low concentrations in adult human serum, 1 but seen in significant amounts in neonatal serum.2 It is advisable to monitor serum 25(OH)D level following treatment in the same laboratory. 1.

AbstractWe evaluated the analytical and clinical performance of the new LumipulseTotal 25 hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels were measured in 100 selected serum samples from our routine analysis with Fujirebio 25(OH)D assay. The results were compared with those obtained with LC-MS/MS and three other automated 25(OH)D assays (Abbott, Beckman, and Roche). The accuracy of each assay tested was evaluated against a Labquality reference serum panel for 25(OH)D (Ref!25OHD; University of Ghent).Intra- and inter-day imprecision of the Fujirebio 25(OH)D assay was <5%. Fujirebio 25(OH)D assay showed the highest correlation among the assays tested with the LC-MS/MS method (R=0.986). The mean relative bias obtained was –15.6% (Fujirebio), –12.7% (Beckman), –2.1% (Abbott) and 9.7% (Roche) as compared to LC-MS/MS. Comparison with the Labquality certified reference serum panel yielded a mean bias of –11.8% (Fujirebio), –14.1% (Beckman), 4.4% (Abbott) and 3.2% (Roche), respectively. Compared to LC-MS/MS, the sensitivity of different methods in detecting vitamin D insufficiency (<50 nmol/L) varied from 100% for the Fujirebio assay to 72.7% for Roche, and specificity ranged from 94.4% for Roche to 87.6% for Beckman.The Lumipulse

(1) Background: Vitamin D, a well-established regulator of calcium and phosphate metabolism, also has immune-modulatory functions. An uncontrolled immune response and cytokine storm are tightly linked to fatal courses of COVID-19. The present retrospective study aimed to inves-tigate vitamin D status markers and vitamin D degradation products in a mixed cohort of 148 hospitalized COVID-19 patients with various clinical courses of COVID-19. (2) Methods: The serum concentrations of 25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D2, 24,25(OH)2D3, and 25,26(OH)2D3 were determined by a validated liquid-chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry method in leftover serum samples from 148 COVID-19 patients that were admitted to the University Hospital of the Medical Uni-versity of Graz between April and November 2020. Anthropometric and clinical data, as well as outcomes were obtained from the laboratory and hospital information systems. (3) Results: From the 148 patients, 34 (23%) died within 30 days after admission. The frequency of fatal outcomes did not differ between males and females. Non-survivors were significantly older than survivors, had higher peak concentrations of IL-6 and CRP, and required mechanical ventilation more frequently. The serum concentrations of all vitamin D metabolites and the vitamin D metabolite ratio (VMR) did not differ significantly between survivors and non-survivors. Additionally, the need for res-piratory support was unrelated to the serum concentrations of 25(OH)D vitamin D and the two vitamin D catabolites, as well as the VMR. (4) Conclusion: The present results do not support a relevant role of vitamin D for the course and outcome of COVID-19.

Insufficient blood levels of the neurohormone vitamin D are associated with increased risk of COVID-19 severity and mortality. Despite the global rollout of vaccinations and promising preliminary results, the focus remains on additional preventive measures to manage COVID-19. Results conflict on vitamin D’s plausible role in preventing and treating COVID-19. We examined the relation between vitamin D status and COVID-19 severity and mortality among the multiethnic population of the United Arab Emirates. Our observational study used data for 522 participants who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 at one of the main hospitals in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Only 464 of those patients were included for data analysis. Demographic and clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Serum samples immediately drawn at the first hospital visit were used to measure serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations through automated electrochemiluminescence. Levels < 12 ng/mL were significantly associated with higher risk of severe COVID-19 infection and of death. Age was the only other independent risk factor, whereas comorbidities and smoking did not contribute to the outcomes upon adjustment. Sex of patients was not an important predictor for severity or death. Our study is the first conducted in the UAE to measure 25(OH)D levels in SARS-CoV-2-positive patients and confirm the association of levels < 12 ng/mL with COVID-19 severity and mortality.

The proven relationship between the frequency of influenza and acute respiratory infections in children with vitamin D deficiency and the data on the relationship between a high mortality rate from SARS-CoV-2 in patients with low levels of vitamin D in the body under conditions of a forced sharp decrease in the level of insolation in the period from March 11, 2020 dictated the relevance assessing the vitamin D supply of children and adolescents in educational organizations of the city of Ulan-Ude. Purpose of the study: to assess the vitamin D supply of children and adolescents living in the city of Ulan-Ude. Methods: in a non-randomized, single-center, transverse (one-stage) uncontrolled comparative study, the concentration of 25(OH) vitamin D – 25(OH)D – in the blood serum of children and adolescents in Ulan-Ude was studied from May 22 to May 24, 2020. Moderate vitamin D deficiency (deficiency) was determined when the content of 25(OH)D was in the range of 20–30 ng/ml, the deficiency was within the limits, and the severe deficiency was <10 ng/ml. Results: assessment of vitamin D provision was carried out in 60 children aged 10 to 17 years (15 [11; 16] years), of which 19 boys, 41 girls. Children were divided into 2 groups depending on age: 10–11 years old (grade 5) (n=27) and 15–17 years old (grades 9–11) (n=33). Deficiency of vitamin D was found in 4 (15%), 11 (33%); deficit – in 19 (70%), 18 (55%); severe deficiency – in 2 (7%), 4 (12%), respectively. Along with low indicators of the provision of children and adolescents in the city of Ulan-Ude, an even lower provision of children and adolescents of Buryats was noted. The concentration of vitamin D in Buryat children and adolescents below normal (less than 30 ng/ml) was found in 35 (100%) children and adolescents, deficiency – in 8 (23%) children, vitamin D deficiency – in 21 (60%) children and severe deficiency – in 6 (17%). A statistically significant difference in the content of 25(OH)D between children and adolescents of Russian nationality and Buryats was revealed (p=0,0056). Evaluation of the diet showed that the frequency of consumption of fish as a source of vitamin D by children and adolescents is low. Conclusion: there is a high incidence of vitamin D deficiency and deficiency, which amounted to 97% in the examined children and adolescents living in the city of Ulan-Ude, more pronounced in Buryat children and adolescents, which requires organizational measures to replenish the vitamin D deficiency.

25 Hydroxyvitamin D

The demand for vitamin D analysis in veterinary species is increasing with the growing knowledge of the extra-skeletal role vitamin D plays in health and disease. The circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin-D (25(OH)D) metabolite is used to assess vitamin D status, and the benefits of analysing other metabolites in the complex vitamin D pathway are being discovered in humans. Profiling of the vitamin D pathway by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) facilitates simultaneous analysis of multiple metabolites in a single sample and over wide dynamic ranges, and this method is now considered the gold-standard for quantifying vitamin D metabolites. However, very few studies report using LC-MS/MS for the analysis of vitamin D metabolites in veterinary species. Given the complexity of the vitamin D pathway and the similarities in the roles of vitamin D in health and disease between humans and companion animals, there is a clear need to establish a comprehensive, reliable method for veterinary analysis that is comparable to that used in human clinical practice. In this review, we highlight the differences in vitamin D metabolism between veterinary species and the benefits of measuring vitamin D metabolites beyond 25(OH)D. Finally, we discuss the analytical challenges in profiling vitamin D in veterinary species with a focus on LC-MS/MS methods.

Objectives: To evaluate the association of severe vitamin D deficiency with clinically important outcomes in children with septic shock. Methods: We enrolled children ≤17 years with septic shock prospectively over a period of 6 months. We estimated 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25 (OH) D] levels at admission and 72 hours. Severe deficiency was defined as serum 25 (OH) <10 ng/mL. We performed univariate and multivariate analysis to evaluate association with clinically important outcomes. Results: Forty-three children were enrolled in the study. The prevalence of severe vitamin D deficiency was 72% and 69% at admission and 72 hours, respectively. On univariate analysis, severe vitamin D deficiency at admission was associated with lower rates of shock reversal, 74% (23) versus 25% (3); relative risk (95% confidence interval [CI]): 2.9 (1.09-8.08), at 24 hours and greater need for fluid boluses (75 vs 59 mL/kg). On multivariate analysis, nonresolution of shock at 24 hours was significantly associated with severe vitamin D deficiency after adjusting for other key baseline and clinical variables, adjusted odds ratio (95% CI): 12 (2.01-87.01); 0.01. Conclusion: The prevalence of severe vitamin D deficiency is high in children with septic shock admitted to pediatric intensive care unit. Severe vitamin D deficiency at admission seems to be associated with lower rates of shock reversal at 24 hours of ICU stay. Our study provides preliminary data for planning interventional studies in children with septic shock and severe vitamin D deficiency.
