description STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVES: Determine dietary, lifestyle, and clinical factors associated with plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels in persons with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). SETTING: Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Boston, MA. METHODS: 174 participants completed food frequency and health questionnaires, provided a blood sample, and underwent dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess %-total body fat. Linear regression models were used to assess cross-sectional associations of personal, lifestyle, and nutritional factors with plasma 25(OH)D. RESULTS: Independent factors positively associated with higher plasma 25(OH)D included vitamin D intake, age, hours of planned exercise, female sex, white race, wine consumption, and if a never or former smoker. The most important predictor of 25(OH)D was supplement intake. The majority of subjects (98.9% for vitamin D and 74.1% for calcium) did not meet the recommended daily allowance for adults from their diet alone. Level and completeness of SCI, injury duration, mobility, %-total body fat, time outside, and comorbid diseases were not associated with plasma 25(OH)D. CONCLUSIONS: Plasma 25(OH)D level in chronic SCI is not associated with clinical factors specific to SCI such as injury level and completeness, injury duration, and mobility mode, but related to supplement intake and other lifestyle factors.
