Objective: To describe serum 25(OH)D changes after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and to determine if fat mass (FM) loss and vitamin D intake are associated with changes in serum levels.
Design And Methods: The relationship between serum 25(OH)D and 1) FM, 2) weight, 3) % excess weight loss (EWL), and 4) BMI was investigated after controlling for potential confounders using a mixed effects linear model in 20 women before and up to 1-year post-RYGB. Subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) vitamin D concentrations at time of RYGB were also evaluated.
Results: Weight and FM decreased 1-year after surgery by 45 ± 1 kg and 37 ± 1 kg, respectively while 25(OH)D increased by 10 ± 2 ng mL(-1) . Weight, FM, BMI, and %EWL changes were associated with 25(OH)D change. VAT had an average 21% more vitamin D per gram than SAT and concentrations were highly correlated.
Conclusions: Although weight loss may lead to increased serum 25(OH)D after RYGB, low levels remain a concern in some patients 1-year postsurgery. Additional research is needed to clarify the relationship between adipose storage of vitamin D and serum 25(OH)D in obesity, and how that relationship might change after surgery. This could lead to improved clinical management of vitamin D in this ever-growing clinical population.

Commutability is where the measurement response for a reference material (RM) is the same as for an individual patient sample with the same concentration of analyte measured using two or more measurement systems. Assessment of commutability is essential when the RM is used in a calibration hierarchy or to ensure that clinical measurements are comparable across different measurement procedures and at different times. The commutability of three new Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) for determining serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], defined as the sum of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], was assessed through an interlaboratory study.

Purpose: To assess the association of serum vitamin D level and the live birth rate in women undergoing frozen embryo transfer (FET).
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study involving 1489 infertile women who had frozen embryo transfer at two tertiary reproductive medicine centres from 2019 to 2021. Only the first frozen embryo transfer was included for women who had repeated transfers during the period.
Vitamin D and COVID-19: comparative analysis with other respiratory infections and impact of comorbidities.

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has promoted an intensive investigation into the pathophysiological mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection, risk factors, and its impact on disease severity. Vitamin D has generated significant attention for its potential role in viral prevention and immune defense due to its pleiotropic functions, including immunomodulation and antimicrobial effects. This study aimed to assess serum 25(OH)D3 levels in patients with COVID-19 compared to those with other viral respiratory infections and to evaluate associations of vitamin D levels with symptomatology, clinical characteristics, presence of comorbidities and laboratory investigation.

BK viremia (BKPyV-DNAemia) and nephropathy (BKPyVAN) are significant causes of morbidity and mortality in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Vitamin D supports immune function, yet low 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is common among KTRs. The association between serum 25(OH)D, measured 61 days to 2 years post-transplant, and subsequent incident BKPyV-DNAemia and BKPyVAN was examined in KTRs without previous BKPyV-DNAemia or BKPyVAN, respectively.

The association between early childhood serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and eosinophilic asthma remains unclear. We investigated this association using multicentre prospective data from 584 children with a history of bronchiolitis requiring hospitalisation (high-risk population). Low serum 25(OH)D levels (<20 ng/mL) were associated with increased odds of developing eosinophilic asthma (adjusted OR 2.
