Abstract (EN)

In our study, there was increasing epidemiological evidence linking vitamin D deficiency status to obesity events. In addition, the study showed that there is an association between weight and vitamin D deficiency on the one hand, and lipid and calcium levels on the other hand, which indicates the association between weight gain and vitamin D deficiency. We have noted that obesity may increase the risk of developing ADHD. However, there is not enough information to understand whether there is a causal relationship between the two, but according to our results we believe that vitamin D deficiency reduces fat metabolism and thus increases body weight. Vitamin D deficiency has also been linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis and other diseases. 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) (25D) concentrations are believed to be the most accurate predictor of total vitamin D stores in the body. The relationship between low circulating 25D concentrations and obesity is well established, but the mechanisms are not fully understood. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with a cardiac metabolic risk profile in obese subjects. Our study concluded that more research should be done on these topics.
