P549 Vitamin D deficiency as a part of extraintestinal manifestations in IBD Patients: a single-centre experience
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency is more common in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients than it is in the general population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the vitamin D serum levels in IBD patients as a part of the extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) and to correlate the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D with existence of other EIMs. The Vitamin D (25 OH D) status was measured in 94 IBD patients, 54 with CD and 40 with UC. 25(OH) D serum concentrations were measured by a commercial paramagnetic particle chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH) vitamin D] levels. Vitamin D deficiency is defined as a serum level of 25OHD <50 nmol/l, and a serum level ˃50 nmol/l <75 nmol/l is classified as vitamin D insufficiency. The clinical course and the occurrence of EIMs were monitored. All Patients were classified according to the Montreal classification. CD activity was assessed using the BEST index (CDAI - Crohn Disease Activity Index) and the partial Mayo score was used to determine UC activity. Across all patients the mean serum 25(OH) D level was 44.47 ± 18.14 (nmol/l). Almost 95% of IBD patients have Vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency, respectively CD- 96.29% (n = 52), UC 92.50% (n = 37), as Vitamin D serum levels ˂ 50 nmol/l were detected in 61 (64.89%) of IBD patients - 66.66%( n = 36) for CD and 62.50% (n = 25) for UC. There was no significant difference between mean 25(OH) D levels in both diseases (p = 0.604). In 89% (n = 84) of IBD patients there was a presence of EIMs, in 96.42% (n = 81) of these patients there were low Vitamin D serum concentrations, respectively, CD 59.25% (n = 48) and UC 40.74% (n = 33). In IBD patients with EIMs the mean 25(OH) D levels were significantly lower (42.67 ± 17.29 vs. 59.58 ± 18.94) (р = 0.005). We found a significant difference between measured mean 25(OH) D concentrations in UC patients and EIMs presence (43.02 ± 17.38 vs. 63.70 ± 18.48) (р= 0.018), while in CD patients there is not a significant difference (р=0.122). The most common EIMs among our IBD patients are: iron deficiency without anaemia - 39.40% (n = 37), liver steatosis – 38.30% (n = 36), IBD associated arthropathy (IBDAA) - 33% (n = 31), followed by: Vitamin B 12 deficiency without anaemia, latent iron deficiency, ocular manifestations and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). All IBD Patients with Iron and Vitamin B12 deficiency anaemia, latent Vitаmin B12 deficiency and malabsorption syndrome have low 25(OH) D serum levels. Over 96% of patients with the EIMs also have a low Vitamin D serum levels. This correlation leads to the need for systematic monitoring of 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels during the course, follow-up and treatment of IBD

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
