Vitamin D deficiency and cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus
Year: 2015
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Low levels of vitamin D have been suggested to have a negative effect on the pancreatic β cell function, being associated with insulin resistance and an increase in inflammatory markers in diabetic patients. However, the relationship between vitamin D levels and diabetes microvascular complications has not been well established yet. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and the presence of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) in patients with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1D).
