Brief Summary:
In this study, we will test the central hypothesis that enhancement of vitamin D status in obese and overweight children will improve their vascular health and their cardiovascular disease (CVD) and metabolic syndrome risk profile.
Detailed Description:
Our primary objective is to determine, in obese and overweight children aged 10 to 18 years with vitamin D deficiency (defined as serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D \<20 ng/mL), the efficacy of enhanced vitamin D3 supplementation in improving vascular endothelial function, arterial stiffness, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic syndrome risk status; and to assess whether these effects are dose-dependent. As a secondary objective, we will examine the vitamin D supplementation-induced effect on adipokines and inflammatory markers relevant to CVD risk. In a double-masked, controlled trial, we will randomize 252 eligible children to receive either 600 IU (conventional supplementation), or 1000 IU or 2000 IU (enhanced supplementation) of vitamin D3 daily for 6 months.
In terms of reporting of results, the following pre-specified outcomes are included in the primary manuscript (PubMed PMID:31950134 -- see Reference section for citation details)
1. Waist Circumference
2. Serum High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol
3. Serum Triglycerides
4. Inflammatory markers (Plasma TNF-alpha, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and IL-6)
5. Adiopkines (Plasma Leptin and Adiponectin)
Plasma nitric oxide metabolites were not measured.
