Association between vitamin D and glycaemic parameters in a multi-ethnic cohort of postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes in Saudi Arabia
BACKGROUND: The relationship between vitamin D (VitD) and insulin sensitivity and secretion in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) has been shown to be different amongst different ethnic populations. In Saudi Arabia, where both T2D and VitD deficiency are highly prevalent health concerns, little is known...

description | BACKGROUND: The relationship between vitamin D (VitD) and insulin sensitivity and secretion in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) has been shown to be different amongst different ethnic populations. In Saudi Arabia, where both T2D and VitD deficiency are highly prevalent health concerns, little is known about the relationship between VitD, insulin sensitivity, resistance and the relative importance of ethnicity. Our primary aim in this study was to investigate influence of ethnicity on VitD association with glycaemic profile and to measures of obesity as a secondary outcome, among multiethnic postmenopausal women with T2D in Saudi Arabia. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted at King Fahad Medical Research Center, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Postmenopausal females (n = 173, age ≥ 50 years) with T2D were randomly selected in this study. Anthropometric measures and fasting blood samples were obtained for all study participants. Several biochemical parameters were measured including 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), insulin, glucose and c-peptide. Surrogate markers for insulin resistance were calculated using Homeostasis Model Assessment 2 for insulin resistance and beta cell activity (HOMA2-IR, HOMA2-β). RESULTS: Overall, 25(OH)D was inversely associated with fasting glucose (r=-0.165, P = 0.037), insulin (r=-0.184, P = 0.02), C-peptide (r=-0.19, P = 0.015) and HOMA2- IR C-peptide (r=-0.23, P = 0.004). Additionally, serum 25 (OH)D showed a negative correlation with body weight (r=-0.173 P = 0.028), waist and hip circumferences (r=-0.167, P = 0.033; r=-0.22, P = 0.004 respectively) but not with body mass index (BMI) or waist hip ratio (WHR). In the white ethnic group but not in black or Asian population groups, 25(OH)D level was also associated with only serum fasting C-peptide and HOMA2-IR C-peptide and BMI (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Insulin resistance and obesity were associated with VitD status in T2D in this cohort. Our findings also suggest that these VitD associations in women from white ethnic background are different than in those from black/Asian ethnic backgrounds. Whether VitD supplements are able to improve either obesity and/or insulin sensitivity should be further investigated in different ethnic population groups. |
