Title

Vitamin D Deficiency in High and Low Risk Populations for Esophageal Cancer in Northern Iran

Pages

  26-31

Abstract

 Background: Diverse relationships have been proposed between Esophageal cancer (EC) and Vitamin D serum levels. We aimed to assess serum levels of Vitamin D in high and low-risk populations for EC in Northern Iran. Methods: This ecological study was conducted in Golestan province, Northern Iran. Based on the incidence rates of EC, the province was divided into high-risk and low-risk populations. A stratified cluster sampling method was used. Serum Vitamin D levels were assessed using the ELISA method. The proportions of Vitamin D deficiency were compared between the two populations. Results: A total of 246 persons were studied, with a mean age of 50. 7 years. 96 subjects were male (39%) and 146 subjects were female (61%). 119 subjects (48. 8%) were from high-risk and 127 (51. 6%) were from low-risk populations. Thirty-two of 244 (13. 1%) persons had Vitamin D deficiency. The proportions of Vitamin D deficiency were 7. 9% and 18. 3% in high-and low-risk populations, respectively (p=0. 02). Conclusion: We found that significantly larger numbers of people suffered from Vitamin D deficiency in populations at low-risk of EC compared to high-risk populations. Regarding the ecological design of this study, causal inference could not be made from our results. Therefore, we recommend further investigation of this issue in future individual-level studies in this area, and in other high-risk populations.
