Objective: To investigate the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) level with novel inflammatory markers in hemodialysis-treated patients.
Methods: A total of 167 maintenance hemodialysis-treated patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. The patients were divided into vitamin D deficiency (a serum 25(OH)D level <20 ng/mL) and nondeficiency (a serum 25(OH)D level ≥20 ng/mL) groups. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) were calculated by the complete blood cell count. The relationship between 25(OH)D level with other parameters was assessed by bivariate correlation analysis and linear regression analysis.
Results: There were significant differences between the two groups in terms of age, diabetes, levels of albumin, creatinine, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) as well as NLR and MLR (p = .004, p = .031, p < .001, p = .043, p = .008, p = .006, p = .002, and p < .001, respectively). There exist negative correlations between serum 25(OH)D level with age, diabetes, alkaline phosphatase level, NLR, PLR, and MLR (p = .002, p = .002, p = .037, p = .001, p = .041, and p < .001, respectively) and positive correlations between serum 25(OH)D level with albumin level, creatinine level, phosphorus level, HDL-C, and LDL-C (p < .001, p < .001, p = .013, p = .02, p = .002, respectively). Multiple analysis results showed that sex, diabetes, albumin level and NLR were independently associated with serum 25(OH)D level (p = .021, p = .015, p = .033, and p = .041, respectively). High values of NLR and MLR were associated with patients with serum 25(OH)D deficiency. There were negative interplays between serum 25(OH) D level with NLR, PLR, and MLR and also an independent association between serum 25(OH) D level with NLR.
Conclusion: Collectively, serum 25(OH)D level has a negative correlation with inflammatory markers.

Background: Vitamin D is the focus of extensive medical research globally. Recent studies have investigated the correlation between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and common inflammatory markers. However, few studies have incorporated novel inflammatory markers such as the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), platelet-to-high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (PHR), systemic inflammatory index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic inflammatory response (SIRI), and neutrophil-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHR).

Background: Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations have been shown to be low in patients with migraine, but results are controversial regarding the current role of vitamin D in migraine severity. Using a case-control design, we aimed to evaluate serum 25(OH)D levels in a group of females with high-frequency episodic migraine/chronic migraine (HF/CM) and analyze its association with headache frequency and serum calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) levels.
Methods: Serum 25(OH)D levels were measured in 97 females with HF/CM (age 48.

Vitamin D (VD) is a vital lipophilic secosteroid hormone known for its essential role in maintaining skeletal health and regulating calcium and phosphate metabolism. Recent evidence has begun to illuminate its significance beyond bone health, particularly in relation to thrombosis-a condition characterized by blood clot formation within the vascular system that can lead to serious cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. VD deficiency, defined as a plasma 25-hydroxyVD level below 25 nmol/L, affects a substantial portion of the global population, with prevalence rates ranging from 8% to 18%.

Background: This study aims to investigate the association of pre-conception vitamin D levels on adverse pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing in vitro fertilization with fresh embryo transfer.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study using archived serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D measured in the pre-conception period before ovarian stimulation in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization with fresh autologous embryo transfer. A total of 306 women were included and adverse pregnancy outcomes in their resulting pregnancy were recorded.

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.
