| Lack of vitamin D may worsen leukemia |
维生素D缺乏可致白血病恶化 |
| U.S. researchers have found that low levels of vitamin D may lead to deterioration in certain leukemia patients, Xinhua reports. The findings result from a study of 390 chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients, 30 percent of whom had insufficient vitamin D levels (less than 25 nanograms per milliliter) at the time of cancer diagnosis. After a median follow-up of three years, patients with insufficient vitamin D levels were 66 percent more likely to have disease progression and to require chemotherapy. They also had a twofold increased risk of death, compared to those with adequate vitamin D levels. The study also found that increasing vitamin D levels in patients was linked to longer survival times. |
据新华社报道，美国研究人员发现，维生素D水平低可致使某些白血症病人病情恶化。这是经过对390名慢性淋巴细胞白血病病人研究得出的结果，这些人中有30%在肿瘤确诊时维生素D水平偏低（每毫升含不足25毫微克的维生素D）。经过3年的中位随访期后，维生素D水平偏低的患者病情恶化并需接受化疗的机率高出了66%。他们死亡的机率是维生素D水平正常者的两倍。此项研究还发现，患者的维生素D水平越高，存活时间越长。
