dc.description.abstractPurpose Patients with vitamin D deficiency (VDD) have potential to have increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to discover the findings of early atherosclerosis in patients with VDD by measuring carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and epicardial fat thickness (EFT). Materials and Methods The study population includes 52 patients with VDD (n = 30 [57% female], mean +/- SD age 54.28 +/- 8.77 years, mean +/- SD serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 [OH] D) 11 +/- 2.4 ng/mL) and 82 participants for control group (n = 52 [63.4% female], mean +/- SD age 56.40 +/- 7.90 years, mean +/- SD serum (25 [OH] D) 53 +/- 4.2 ng/mL) who have no cardiovascular disease. Carotid intima-media thickness was assessed by using ultrasonography, and EFT was measured on the free wall of the right ventricle at end diastole from the parasternal long-axis views by standard transthoracic 2-dimensional echocardiography. Results Both CIMT and EFT were significantly higher in patients with VDD compared with controls (0.75 +/- 0.16 mm vs 0.68 +/- 0.21 mm, P < 0.05, and 0.66 +/- 0.15 cm vs 0.56 +/- 0.15 cm, P < 0.001). Conclusions Patients with VDD seem to have increased CIMT and EFT, which are predictors of atherosclerotic process. Further studies are needed to confirm these results.en_US
