Vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, glucose metabolism and incident diabetes in the multiethnic study of atherosclerosis.


ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Higher concentrations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and lower concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) are associated with lower insulin resistance and incident diabetes in non-Hispanic White and Hispanic Americans. Results are mixed in other populations, with no observational studies in a large multiethnic cohort. The association of serum 25(OH)D with diabetes may vary by adiposity level.

Research design and methods

Among 5611 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis without diabetes at baseline, cross-sectional associations of serum 25(OH)D with homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and HOMA-β were examined using linear regressions. The association of 25(OH)D with incident diabetes over 9 years was examined using Cox proportional hazard regression.

Results

Black Americans had the highest proportion of individuals with 25(OH)D<20 ng/mL (61%) and White Americans had the least (17%). Serum 25(OH)D was inversely associated with HOMA-IR in fully adjusted models (-0.34% difference in HOMA-IR per ng/mL higher 25(OH)D, p<0.0001). Longitudinally, a 1 ng/mL higher serum 25(OH)D was associated with 2% lower risk of incident diabetes (HR 0.982, CI 0.974 to 0.991), and a 1 pg/mL higher serum PTH was associated with 1% higher risk of incident diabetes (HR 1.007, CI 1.004 to 1.010), both prior to adjustment for waist circumference. After adjusting for waist circumference, a 1 ng/mL higher 25(OH)D was associated with 1% lower risk of incident diabetes (HR 0.991, CI 0.983 to 1.000). The magnitude of association of serum 25(OH)D with incident diabetes was largest at lower waist circumference (p for interaction=0.025). There was no heterogeneity by race/ethnicity (p=0.317).

Conclusions

Serum 25(OH)D is inversely associated with insulin resistance and incident diabetes in a diverse cohort, including non-Hispanic White, Black, Hispanic and Chinese Americans. Future research should explore mechanisms for the interaction between serum 25(OH)D and adiposity in this relationship.
