Proportion of vitamin D deficiency in children/adolescents with type 1 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
BMC Pediatrics 2024 March 17
BACKGROUND: The impact of vitamin D on type 1 diabetes has been a controversial topic in public health. Furthermore, significant differences in the proportion of vitamin D have been noted. The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the overall proportion of vitamin D deficiency in children/adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
METHODS: Based on six electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Ovid Medline, ProQuest, and Cochrane Library), eligible studies since the databases' inception up to April 2022 were searched. Reference lists were also manually searched to identify additional studies. Overall, studies with statistical information on vitamin D deficiency in children and adolescents with T1D were included, and a random effects model was applied for the meta-analysis. In addition, subgroup and sensitivity analyses were carried out to evaluate heterogeneity, and publication bias was evaluated by using Egger's test.
RESULTS: A total of 45 studies involving 6,995 participants met the inclusion criteria; these included 25 countries covering Africa, Oceania, Europe, North America and Asia. The proportion of vitamin D deficiency in children/adolescents with T1D was 45% (95% confidence interval [CI] 37-54%, I2 = 97.94%). Subgroup analysis further revealed that the publication year, study design, vitamin D classification, season and geographical region significantly contributed to the variation in the reported incidence of vitamin D deficiency.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of the meta-analysis showed that the proportion of vitamin D deficiency among T1D children/adolescents was 45%. In addition, the proportion remains higher, which has important implications for adapting health and social care systems.
