- Abstract
- Background. Numerous studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is common in end stage renal disease patients. However, change of the vitamin D deficiency after kidney transplantation is not fully understood. Methods. Twenty-five kidney transplant (KT) recipients with serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25D) level, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D) level, parathyroid hormone (PTH) level before and 6, 12, and 24 months after transplantation were reviewed. Results. Serum PTH level and 1,25D level showed significant changes at 6 months after transplantation, but did not show further change at 12 months. 25D level did not increase within 6 months after transplantation. However, 25D level showed gradual increase after 6 months. The proportion of recipients with 25D deficiency (<10 ng/mL) was 68%, 40%, and 28% before, 12 months after, and 24 months after transplantation, respectively. Patients with vitamin D deficiency at 24 month were younger at transplantation (37.7 +/- 9.6 y vs 48.2 +/- 8.0 y; P = .029) and had lower 25D level before transplantation (7.96 +/- 1.74 ng/mL vs 10.59 +/- 4.35 ng/mL; P = .041). Conclusions. 25D deficiency is persistent in almost kidney transplant recipients even 12 months after transplantation, although serum PTH levels decrease and serum 25D levels increase after transplantation.
