Introduction: Ukrainian population is facing many challenges of war including chronic stress, D deficit, often unavailability of medical care. In these conditions some diagnostic disadvantages of Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (DM 2) patients status are also observed1. According to Ukrainian Consensus on Diagnosis and Management of Vitamin D Deficiency in Adults, approximately 20% of Ukrainian population has Vit D deficit (VDD) and 27% Vit D insufficiency (VDI)2.
Aim of the study: To evaluate 25-hydroxyvitamin D level in DM 2 patients with different severity of depression.
Methods: 121 DM 2 patients aged 19-75 years were examined. We studied the level of 25 hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH D) using Chemiluminescent immunoassay. Diagnosis of VDD and VDI were made according to Clinical Practice in the Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment of Vitamin D Deficiency: A Central and Eastern European Expert Consensus Statement3. Grade of depression was evaluated with Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale, DASS 21. There were 5 grades of depression: Normal, Mild, Moderate, Severe, Extreme.
Results: Distribution of patients according to the severity of depression: 6 patients had no symptoms of depression, 24 patients had Mild, 43 Moderate, 42 Severe and 6 Extreme grade of depression. We observed inverse relationship between 25-ОН D level and Depression grade in DM 2 patients, from 28.05±2.6 ng/ml (correspond to VDI) in Mild depression to 9.5±0.4 ng/ml (correspond to VDD) in Extreme depression (P< 0,001); inverse relationship between 25-ОН D level and Body Mass index (BMI) (rSpearman= -0.304, P=0.001).
Conclusion: In chronic stress patients with DM 2 need treatment with vitamin D and consultation of psychologist.
