Brief Summary:
Vitamins are essential micronutrients required for maintaining normal physiological functions and metabolism in humans Among them fat-soluble vitamins FSV such as vitamins A D E and K are absorbed in the intestines in the presence of fat Both deficiencies and excesses of these vitamins can affect health Current global studies on FSVs in healthy populations are often limited to specific types or regions and comprehensive data on all four FSVs in the healthy Chinese population are lacking This study aims to fill this gap by collecting and analyzing FSV levels from healthy adults across multiple regions in China establishing a reference range for clinical evaluation and early disease intervention
Detailed Description:
Vitamins are crucial organic micronutrients necessary for maintaining human physiological functions and metabolic processes They are typically categorized into water-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble vitamins FSVs The primary FSVs include vitamins A D E and K which are absorbed in the intestines in the presence of dietary fat
The balance of these vitamins in the body is vital for health Deficiencies or excesses can lead to significant health issues For example a deficiency in vitamin A can cause night blindness a lack of vitamin D can lead to osteomalacia insufficient vitamin E can result in increased oxidative stress in cells and a deficiency in vitamin K can cause bleeding disorders
Globally research on FSVs in healthy populations is usually focused on specific vitamins or limited to particular regions and demographics Consequently there is a scarcity of comprehensive data on the concentration of all four FSVs at the population level In China there has been no extensive study that simultaneously analyzes the levels of all four FSVs in a healthy adult population
This study addresses this gap through a multicenter approach collecting data on the levels of vitamins A D E and K from healthy adults across various regions in China The goal is to establish a reference range for serum FSV levels in Chinese adults This database will serve as a scientific foundation for accurately assessing FSV levels in clinical settings and providing early intervention for diseases related to FSV imbalances Additionally this research aims to enhance understanding of the nutritional status of the Chinese population and guide dietary recommendations and public health policies to improve overall health outcomes
