The aim of our study was to assess risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency among HIV-1-infected patients on combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). A retrospective, case-control study was conducted to assess risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency among HIV-1-infected adults on stable cART. Vitamin D deficiency was defined as 25-OH vitamin D concentration <30 ng/mL. A total of 195 patients (77% males, mean age 49.2 years) were enrolled into the study: 98 subjects with vitamin D deficiency (cases) and 97 with normal vitamin D serum concentration (controls). The mean serum concentration + standard deviation (SD) of vitamin D was 18.2+6.7 ng/mL among cases and 39.6+13.4 ng/ mL among controls. Current cART including tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) (OR 1.65; 95% CI, 1.31 to 1.94), osteoporosis (OR 1.78; 95% CI, 1.25 to 2.09), males who have sex with males (MSM) risk category (OR 1.59; 95% CI, 1.19 to 2.21), chronic hepatitis C (OR 1.44; 95% CI, 1.17 to 1.86), previous or current cancer (OR 1.47; 95% CI, 1.13 to 1.79), metabolic syndrome (OR 2.57; 95% CI, 1.96 to 2.98), and hepatic steatosis (OR 1.59; 95% CI, 1.17 to 2.05) were significant associated with an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency. On the other hand, current CD4+ lymphocyte count >600 cells/mm3 and current HIV RNA <20 copies/mL were significantly associated with a lower risk of vitamin D deficiency. In our case-control study, vitamin D deficiency is associated with TDF exposure, osteoporosis, and metabolic disturbances.

Abstract: | The aim of our study was to assess risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency among HIV-1-infected patients on combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). A retrospective, case-control study was conducted to assess risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency among HIV-1-infected adults on stable cART. Vitamin D deficiency was defined as 25-OH vitamin D concentration <30 ng/mL. A total of 195 patients (77% males, mean age 49.2 years) were enrolled into the study: 98 subjects with vitamin D deficiency (cases) and 97 with normal vitamin D serum concentration (controls). The mean serum concentration + standard deviation (SD) of vitamin D was 18.2+6.7 ng/mL among cases and 39.6+13.4 ng/ mL among controls. Current cART including tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) (OR 1.65; 95% CI, 1.31 to 1.94), osteoporosis (OR 1.78; 95% CI, 1.25 to 2.09), males who have sex with males (MSM) risk category (OR 1.59; 95% CI, 1.19 to 2.21), chronic hepatitis C (OR 1.44; 95% CI, 1.17 to 1.86), previous or current cancer (OR 1.47; 95% CI, 1.13 to 1.79), metabolic syndrome (OR 2.57; 95% CI, 1.96 to 2.98), and hepatic steatosis (OR 1.59; 95% CI, 1.17 to 2.05) were significant associated with an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency.
