Abstract:Objective To analyze the correlation between neonatal and maternal vitamin D levels. Methods To measure vitamin D levels of 80 newborns within 72h after birth and their mothers within a week before delivery, from November 2017 to January 2019 in Heilongjiang province. Results Neonatal average vitamin D level is (13.96±6.09) ng/ml, the rate of vitamin D insufficiency is 27.50%, and the rate of vitamin D deficiency is 58.75%; maternal average vitamin D level is (14.54±7.17) ng/ml; neonatal vitamin D level is related with birth weight and season (P < 0.05), rather than gestational age, delivery mode and gender (P > 0.05); Neonatal 25 (OH) D level is positively correlated with maternal vitamin D level (r s =0.824, P = 0.000). The sensitivity and specificity to predict neonatal vitamin D deficiency when maternal 25 (OH) D level lower than 4.75ng/ml were 97.9% (95% CI: 0.607, 0.838) and 71.4% (95% CI: 0.655, 0.981). Conclusions Neonatal vitamin D level is low in Heilongjiang province, it is correlated with maternal vitamin D level, as well as birth weight and season. Maternal vitamin D levels can help predict the levels of newborns.
