VitD3 supplemetation in infancy is associated with reduced
asthma exacerbations
To analyze the role of VitD3 supplementation during infancy on asthma
exacerbations, we then analyzed the number of asthma exacerbations and
asked if VitD3 supplementation during infancy would associate with less
disease exacerbations. Here we found that asthmatic children without
VitD3 supplementation had more episodes of asthma exacerbations(Fig 2a) that were associated with induced CRP (Fig
2b), a factor associated with increased airway hyperresponsiveness(Fig 2c) . In conclusion, increased asthma exacerbations
associated with CRP in the absence of VitD3 supplementation, indicating
a possible protective role of VitD3 during asthma exacerbations.
