| Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the status of vitamin D in patients with active and recently diagnosed Behcet’s disease (BD) and the relationship between vitamin D levels and BD activity. Methods and materials: In this cross sectional study 48 patients with BD and 47 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included. BD was diagnosed by the International Criteria for BD. Behcet’s patients were new cases who were not on any treatment. BD activity was measured by the Iranian Behcet’s Disease Dynamic Activity Measure (IBDDAM) and Behcet’s Disease Current Activity Form (BDCAF). 25(OH)D measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay method as an indicator of vitamin D status. Results: The mean 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D level in the BD group was lower than the control group. Insufficiency and deficiency of 25(OH)D in the BD group was more common than the control group. No correlation was observed between the total IBDDAM, ophthalmic IBDDAM, and BDCAF with 25(OH)D levels. No correlation was found between the major symptoms of BD and 25(OH)D value. Conclusions: Our study suggests that deficiency of 25(OH)D may be a trigger factor for BD |
