Abstract
ABSTRACT
Background: Vitamin D (Vit D) deficiency (<20ng/ml) or insufficiency (20-30 ng/ml) are common in pediatric patients with severe hemophilia A and patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). It affects bone mineral density (BMD) which is assessed by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan (osteoporosis ≤-2.5 z-score and osteopenia -1≥ z-score > -2.5).
The aim of this study was to measure 25-hydroxyvitamin D level in patients with severe hemophilia A and those with T1DM and correlate it to their DEXA scan score, glycemic control and the presence of microvascular complications in T1DM and annual bleeding rate in severe hemophilia A.
