摘要
目的研究前往不丹廷布吉格梅-多吉-旺楚克国家转诊医院就诊的不丹人的维生素 D 状况:这是一项回顾性描述研究,从医院数据库中提取数据。研究纳入了过去两年(2020-2021 年)中接受过维生素 D 检测的不丹患者的记录:在研究期间,共有 1175 人接受了维生素 D 检测,年龄在 1 天至 94 岁之间。超过 60% 的参与者为女性。研究发现,超过 83% 的研究对象的血清维生素 D 水平低于正常范围/缺乏。约 18% 的参与者严重缺乏维生素 D:研究发现,包括儿童在内的大多数参与者都存在维生素 D 缺乏症,而且不同性别和年龄组的研究结果相同。需要进一步研究来验证这些发现,并确定与人群维生素 D 缺乏有关的因素,以便采取有针对性的公共卫生干预措施。
Vitamin D Status among the Population Visiting Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital, Bhutan.
Objective: To study the vitamin D status among the Bhutanese population visiting the Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital in Thimphu, Bhutan.
Materials and methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study involving the extraction of data from a hospital database. Records of Bhutanese patients who had taken vitamin D tests in the last two years (2020-2021) were included in the study.
Result: A total of 1175 individuals took the vitamin D test during the study period, and the age ranged between 1 day and 94 years. Over 60% of the participants were females. The study found that over 83% of our study population had serum vitamin D levels lower than the normal range/deficient. Around 18% of the participants had severe deficiency.
Conclusion: The study found that most participants, including children, had vitamin D deficiency, and the finding was homogenous across gender and age groups. Further studies are required to validate these findings and identify the factors associated with vitamin D deficiency in the population for targeted public health interventions.
