Clinical Trial of Vitamin D
    JPEN. Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition, 2017, Volume: 41, Issue:3

    Hypovitaminosis D exists postburn. However, evidence-based guidelines for vitamin D repletion are unknown. This investigation examined differences between D. Fifty patients with total body surface area burn of 55.7% ± 2.6% and full-thickness injury of 40.8% ± 3.8% were enrolled, ranging in age from 0.7-18.4 years. All participants received multivitamin supplementation per standardized clinical protocol. In addition, 100 IU/kg D. There were no significant differences in serum vitamin D levels between groups, but >10% of patients had low D25 at discharge, and percent deficiency worsened by the 1-year follow up for the placebo (75%), D. The high incidence of low serum D25 levels 1 year following serious thermal injury indicates prolonged compromise. Continued treatment with vitamin D

Standard multivitamin supplementation does not improve vitamin D insufficiency after burns.
    Journal of bone and mineral metabolism, 2009, Volume: 27, Issue:4

    Children suffering severe burns develop progressive vitamin D deficiency because of inability of burned skin to produce normal quantities of vitamin D(3) and lack of vitamin D supplementation on discharge. Our study was designed to determine whether a daily supplement of a standard multivitamin tablet containing vitamin D(2) 400 IU (10 microg) for 6 months would raise serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] to normal. We recruited eight burned children, ages 5-18, whose families were deemed reliable by the research staff. These children were given a daily multivitamin tablet in the hospital for 3 months in the presence of a member of the research staff and then given the remainder at home. At 6 months, the subjects returned for measurements of serum levels of 25(OH)D,1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)(2)D], intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), Ca, P, albumin, and total protein as well as bone mass by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. Serum 25(OH)D levels were compared to a group of seven age-matched burned children studied at an earlier date without the vitamin supplement but with the same method of determination of 25(OH)D at 6 months post-burn. In addition, the chewable vitamins were analyzed for vitamin D(2) content by high performance liquid chromatography. Serum concentration of 25(OH)D was 21 +/- 11(SD) ng/ml (sufficient range 30-100) with only one of the eight children having a value in the sufficient range. In comparison, the unsupplemented burn patients had mean serum 25(OH)D level of 16 +/- 7, P = 0.33 versus supplemented. Serum levels of 1,25(OH)(2)D, iPTH, Ca, P, albumin, and total protein were all normal in the supplemented group. Vitamin D(2) content of the chewable tablets after being saponified and extracted was 460 +/- 20 IU. Bone mineral content of the total body and lumbar spine, as well as lumbar spine bone density, failed to increase as expected in the supplemented group. No correlations were found between serum 25(OH)D levels and age, length of stay, percent body surface area burn or third-degree burn. Supplementation of burned children with a standard multivitamin tablet stated to contain 400 IU of vitamin D(2) failed to correct the vitamin D insufficiency.

Impact of insufficient admission vitamin D serum concentrations on sepsis incidence and clinical outcomes in patients with thermal injury.
    Burns : journal of the International Society for Burn Injuries, 2020, Volume: 46, Issue:1

    In burn patients, vitamin D has been studied primarily in the pediatric population and focused mainly on the correlation with bone marker measurements and incidence of fractures. There is an association between vitamin D deficiency and the development of sepsis in non-burn critically-ill patients. However, there is limited data on vitamin D concentrations and clinical outcomes in burn patients, such as sepsis. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of vitamin D concentrations on the incidence of sepsis in adult burn patients.. This was a retrospective cohort of patients 18 years of age and older admitted between February 1, 2016 and February 28, 2018 to an American Burn Association (ABA) verified burn center with diagnosis of burn injury. The primary endpoint was incidence of sepsis using the ABA 2007 Sepsis Consensus Criteria between patients with adequate vitamin D concentrations (25[OH]D > 20 ng/mL) and insufficient vitamin D (25[OH]D < 20 ng/mL) concentrations measured on admission. Descriptive statistics were used for baseline demographics. Univariate analysis was conducted using Chi-square, Fisher's exact test or Mann-Whitney U test, as appropriate.. A total of 115 patients were screened and 107 patients were included in this study. Sixty three patients (58.9%) had insufficient vitamin D concentrations. Patient demographics were overall similar between groups. The median total body surface area burned was 14.6% in the insufficient vitamin D group, and 12.1% in the adequate vitamin D group (p = 0.2). There was a trend towards greater incidence of sepsis in the insufficient vitamin D group in the univariate analysis (15.9% vs. 4.5%, p = 0.07). The multivariable logistic regression analysis found that adequate vitamin D concentrations was associated with a reduction in the incidence of sepsis (OR 0.10, 95% CI 0.01-0.88). The insufficient vitamin D group had a longer median hospital LOS (19 [IQR 11-37] vs 11.5 [IQR 7-20] days, p < 0.05), longer intensive care unit LOS (17 [IQR 10-37] vs 5 [IQR 2-19.5] days, p < 0.05) and fewer ventilator free days (26 [IQR 18-28] vs 28 [IQR 27-28] days, p < 0.05). There was no difference in mortality between groups (p = 0.69).. Patients with adequate vitamin D concentrations on admission had a reduction in the incidence of sepsis as compared to patients with insufficient vitamin D concentrations. Insufficient vitamin D concentrations may contribute to other worsened clinical outcomes in burn patients. Our findings set the stage for future, multicenter studies to determine the role of vitamin D supplementation in burn patients.

Hypovitaminosis D in acutely injured pediatric burn patients.
    Journal of the American Dietetic Association, 2004, Volume: 104, Issue:6

    The prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency, its etiology, and associated sequelae among acutely injured burn patients is unknown.. This study assessed vitamin D and endocrine status, as well as the effect of anabolic agents, in pediatric patients who had sustained burns in excess of 25% total body surface area (TBSA).. Sixty-nine patients with a mean TBSA burn of 50.6+/-2.2% (range 27% to 94%) and full thickness injury of 41.3+/-3.0% (range 0% to 94%) were studied. Subjects ranged in age from 0.6 to 18 years (mean, 5.8+/-0.6 years). Main outcome measures Blood samples were obtained for serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (D25), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (D1,25), albumin, cortisol, triiodothyronine (T3), tetraiodothyronine (T(4)), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and parathormone (PTH).. Two hundred eighty morning blood samples of D25 and D1,25 demonstrated that 45% and 26.2% were low and 8.9% and 11% were very low, respectively. At least one low D25 or D1,25 level occurred in 62.3% of all subjects. Very low levels were noted in 23.2% of all patients. There was an increased incidence of hyperparathyroidism in patients with very low serum D25. Vitamin D25 and D1,25 levels were lower in subjects with larger burns or inhalation injury, as well as those treated with thyroxine or oxandrolone. Serum albumin, cortisol, T(4), and TSH were not correlated with concentration of vitamin D.. Demonstration of a high incidence of low serum vitamin D indicates vitamin D status may be significantly compromised in burned children. It is unclear why vitamin D deficiency exists in this population. The most effective way to improve vitamin D status remains elusive at this time.
