Background And Purpose: According to the role of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) in glucose homeostasis and immune modulation, vitamin D deficiency may be associated with type 1 diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim of investigation of the relationship between the vitamin D level and severity of diabetic ketoacidosis in new cases of type 1 diabetes in children referred to Hazrat-E-Ali-Asghar Hospital in 2021.
Methods: The present study is based on a cross-sectional study.
Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an effective treatment for coronary artery disease. Previous studies have demonstrated the delayed effects of PCI on left ventricular diastolic and systolic function. However, the early impact on these parameters has not been systematically examined.
