ABSTRACT:
Background: Both vitamin D and Fe micronutrient deficiencies are common in Jordan, but the association between them is unclear. Iron and vitamin D deficiencies are common disorders that cause a variety of health issues in the population. Objectives: The present study sought to elucidate the potential association between Vitamin D status and iron deficiency anemia in the Jordanian population. Method: The data of 207 persons over the age of 18 who sought periodic medical examinations at family medicine polyclinics were classified as iron deficiency, iron deficiency anemia (IDA), and 25 hydroxy vitamin D(25(OH)D) levels were classified as deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D(25(OH)D), iron (fe), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), c- reactive protein (CRP), and other parameters were assessed and compared across groups. Result: 41 participants (20.3 percent) were male (mean age = 40.24±12.79) and 167(79.7 percent) were female (mean age = 35.96±11.21). The number of IDA patients was 62(30%), whereas the number of patients without anemic symptoms was 145. (69.7percent). The mean 25(OH)D levels in individuals with IDA were found to be considerably lower (15.96ng/mL) than in those without (27.85ng/mL) (p-values are 0.001). The mean Hgb, RBCs, Hct, MCV, MCH, MCHC, TIBC, iron, and ferritin levels in the 25(OH)D adequate group were significantly greater than in the deficient and insufficient 25(OH)D groups (P-value 0.0001). The Pearson correlation analysis revealed that the examined parameters, which included Age, HGB, PCV, RBC, MCV, MCH, MCHC, Ferritin, Fe, TIBC, Vitamin D, CRP, and gender, had a positive relationship. Conclusions: the association between vitamin D and ID/IDA was significantly recognized in addition to other factors related to iron. Larger studieswith the inclusion ofmarkers such as hepcidin, vitamin D metabolites may provide a clearer view of this complex association.
