Comparative Evaluation of Demographic and Biochemical Parameters between Vitamin D-Deficient and Normal Groups

Background: We aimed to determine if there were any significant differences between individuals with vitamin D deficiency and those with normal vitamin D levels in terms of age, gender, and a key blood sugar indicator, HbA1c. Our goal was to ascertain whether these differences were statistically significant. Material and Methods: The study was conducted at King George’s Medical University in Lucknow at the Department of Prosthodontics, Crown and Bridges. Vitamin D Deficient and Vitamin D Normal were the two groups in this cross-sectional study. Using chi-square tests, we examined information on age, gender, serum vitamin D, and HbA1c levels. Results: All groups had a balanced gender distribution (p = 0.860). The vitamin D-deficient group was the youngest, but we did find a significant difference in mean age (p = 0.017). Vitamin D levels were significantly different between the groups, as was to be expected (p < 0.001). The groups’ HbA1c levels did not differ statistically significantly (p = 0.520). Conclusion: Age and vitamin D levels differed between our groups, but HbA1c and gender did not. This implies that, although overall blood sugar control appears to be constant regardless of vitamin D status, age may be a significant factor in relation to vitamin D deficiency.
