Abstract

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Many factors including inflammation, oxidative stress, and vitamin D deficiency contribute to insulin resistance (IR). Vitamin D requires attention because of the kidney's involvement in vitamin D metabolism, the high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in CKD, and the effect of vitamin D that may cover multiple factors contributing to IR in CKD, as inflammation. Aim: To Identify the role of vitamin D deficiency in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Patients and Methods: The study was performed as a cross-sectional study including 84 patients with T2DM admitted in Suez Canal University Hospitals. Results: In diabetics with normal kidney function 64.3% of patients had sufficient level of vitamin D, while 14.3% of patients had vitamin D deficiency. In diabetics with late nephropathy 46.4% of patients had vitamin D deficiency with significant relationship between the progress of DN and vitamin D level (p value ≤ 0.05). Conclusion:vitamin D deficiency is strongly associated with DN.
