Abstract
Introduction: Relationship between maternal vitamin D (VitD) levels and newborn (NB) small for gestational age (SGA) is uncertain, maternal deficit may imply low levels at birth and affect evolution of NB.
Objective: Determine if maternal VitD levels influence its (SGA) levels, and relationship with maternal body mass index (BMI).
Material and methods: Cohort study, multiple regression model, Wilcoxon SR and Spearman's rho used to compare the VitD levels.
Results: 63 mothers, 25.88 (±5.1) years, BMI 31.2 (±4) Kg/m2, median VitD 14.8 [9.05] ng/ml, VitD levels: 35 (55.5%) deficient, 13 (21%) insufficient and 15 (24%) sufficient. 68 NB 35.78 (±2.58) GW, weight 1871.98 (±449) g, 7 (10.3%) percentile <5 and 61 (89.7%) percentile 5- 10, VitD 10.1 [6.72] ng/dl, VitD levels: 6 (8.8%) severely deficient, 45 (66.2%) deficient, 10 (14.7%) insufficient and 7 (10.3%) sufficient; significantly different.
Conclusions: VitD levels in overweight mothers significantly influence vitamin levels in SGA NB.
