Abstract

Vitamin D, a steroid hormone, is essential for human health and has a relationship with anaemia this study aims to examine the relationship between serum vitamin D levels and haematological parameters, and its risk. Material and Methods: Data Collected: 248 patients were randomly selected from Ibensina Clinic in Derna City, Libya, between April 2023 and November 2023 and whose vitamin D, ferritin, and HBG, levels were checked were examined. The first set included (Sex, Age, Level of Vit D, Ferritin, and HGB). Results: Ferritin distribution shows that 45.2% of individuals have normal levels, with only 1.2% presenting high levels. However, 29.4% have low and 24.2% have severe deficiencies in ferritin, pointing to iron deficiency in about half of the sample. The mean ferritin level is 3.12 with a relatively high standard deviation (2.07), suggesting variability in iron storage across the group. A majority (62.5%) of the participants have normal haemoglobin levels, suggesting good oxygen-carrying capacity in a large part of the sample, the correlation coefficients from this dataset stack up against those in previous studies. For instance, a correlation coefficient of 0.217 for Vitamin D and Ferritin suggests a moderate positive relationship. If previous studies reported similar values, that consistency can reinforce the reliability of your findings. The P-values indicate the statistical significance of the correlations. In your dataset, Vitamin D has significant correlations with Ferritin (P = 0.001) and Hemoglobin (P = 0.047), as well as a strong negative correlation with Age (P = 0.000). Conclusion: There is a strong relationship between vitamin D deficiency, anaemia and age, and the Research shows that vitamin D deficiency has risks such as deficiency and ferritin, And haemoglobin
