Association between Early Childhood Vitamin D Status and Age 6-Year Lung Function among Children with a History of Severe Bronchiolitis in Infancy.

摘要
Improving lung health in children requires understanding the risk factors for decreased lung function. Our objective was to investigate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels and lung function in children. We analyzed data from a prospective cohort of infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis (severe bronchiolitis), a group at high risk for developing childhood asthma. Children were followed longitudinally, and 25(OH)D and spirometry testing were conducted at ages 3 and 6, respectively. We used a multivariable linear regression adjusted for race/ethnicity, annual household income, premature birth, and secondhand smoke exposure to examine the association between serum 25(OH)D level and primary outcomes (percent predicted [pp] of forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and the forced vital capacity (FVC)) and secondary outcome (FEV1pp/FVCpp). Serum 25(OH)D level and age 6 spirometry were available for 363 children. In adjusted analyses comparing the highest quintile (Q5) of serum 25(OH)D (median 37 ng/mL) to the lowest quintile (Q1; median 18 ng/mL), FEV1pp was 6% lower ( = 0.03) in Q1. Likewise, FVCpp was 7% lower ( = 0.03) in Q1. There was no difference in FEV1pp/FVCpp across the serum 25(OH)D quintiles. Compared to children with higher vitamin D status at age 3, those with lower status had decreased FEV1pp and FVCpp at 6 years.
