Article Synopsis
- Vitamin D plays a crucial role in both innate and adaptive immunity, potentially influencing the severity and management of acute asthma episodes.
- A study measured serum levels of various vitamin D forms in 113 participants (73 asthmatics and 40 healthy controls), finding that asthmatic patients had significantly lower vitamin D levels compared to controls.
- Strong negative correlations were observed between vitamin D levels and asthma severity markers, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency may contribute to worse asthma control and severity.
