1) Research Question
"In winter frugal, in summer generous." We have already addressed this as the
winter/summer phenomenon of metabolism. In times of hunger, the modesty of
muscles in sugar consumption can save lives: insulin resistance as a strategy! A
vitamin D deficiency (winter) should then go hand in hand with high sugar, high
vitamin D levels (summer) with lower ones. We investigated this question.
2) Method
Number of data sets: 218
Filtering of data showing an elevated value of glucose: Glucose > 120 mg/dl
Data pairs (X;Y) = (Vitamin D level; Glucose)
Period: from the years 2020 + 2021 + 2022
Patients of a general practice
This includes numerous patients who practice high-dose vitamin D treatment
on medical advice.
Linear regression curve
Python statistics package SciPy to assess significance
The calculation was made with the typical error probability of less than 5%
3) Results
The point cloud shows a falling tendency towards higher vitamin D levels.
The view here focuses on the area of serum glucose above 120 mg/dl.
Therefore, no glucose values below 120 mg/dl are presented.
The linear regression shows the negative correlation.
R^2 = 0.0134
High vitamin D levels "summer" mean fewer pathological glucose values above
120 mg/dl.
Some data pairs provided information about the vitamin D level up to 150 ng/ml,
one even beyond.
The point cloud forms a wedge that has lower high sugar values at high vitamin
D levels.
Significant p< 0.038 (...because none as 0.05)
4) Conclusions
A harmfulness of the vitamin D level for glucose metabolism can therefore be
discarded.
The line of the graph shows a decrease of the cloud of high sugar values when
transitioning to higher vitamin D levels.
The increase of the vitamin D level is statistically associated with a decrease of
blood sugar by 20 ng/ml.
This corresponds approximately to an Hba1c of one percentage point.
Therefore, raising the vitamin D level is unproblematic for diabetes therapy and
could even offer advantages.
The www.VitaminDSimulator.de ® allows an individual control of the vitamin D
level.
