The paper presents an analysis of the relationship between the duration of cholecalciferol supplementation at different doses and the 25(OH)D concentration in infants during their first year of life. We evaluated 496 infants aged 1 month to 12 months who were divided into four groups depending on the duration of vitamin D supplementation: up to 8 weeks, 8-15 weeks, 16-24 weeks, and over 24 weeks. The results obtained in this study demonstrate rather low vitamin D levels in infants, both breastfed and formula-fed. It was demonstrated that use of higher (1000-1500 IU/day) prophylactic doses of vitamin D than the conventionally used 500 IU/day dose is justified if the aim is to maintain an optimal serum calcifediol concentration (30 ng/mL or higher) in infants in their first year of life, and that the optimal duration of a supplementation course is not less than 16 weeks.

The results obtained in this study demonstrate rather low vitamin D levels in infants, both breastfed and formula-fed. It was demonstrated that use of higher (1000-1500 lU/day) prophylactic doses of vitamin D than the conventionally used 500 lU/day dose is justified if the aim is to maintain an optimal serum calcifediol concentration (30 ng/mL or higher) in infants in their first year of life, and that the optimal duration of a supplementation course is not less than 16 weeks.

Представлен анализ взаимосвязи между длительностью приёма различных доз препаратов холекаль-циферола и уровнем 25(OH)D у детей на протяжении первого года жизни. Обследованы 496 детей в возрасте от 1 до 12 месяцев, которые в зависимости от длительности приёма препаратов витамина D были распределены на 4 группы: до 8 недель, 8-15 недель, 16-24 недели и более 24 недель.

Полученные результаты демонстрируют довольно низкую обеспеченность витамином D как на естественном, так и на искусственном вскармливании у детей грудного возраста. Установлено, что для поддержания оптимального уровня кальцидиола сыворотки (30 нг/мл и выше) у детей на первом году жизни оправдано применение более высоких профилактических доз витамина D (1000-1500 МЕ/сут), чем традиционно используемая доза 500 МЕ/сут, а оптимальная длительность курса должна составлять не менее 16 недель.

The knowledge of vitamin D has significantly evolved by now; the metabolic pathways of its activation in the human body have been clarified, and the location of specific receptors and related mechanisms of action of this hormone-like substance have been elucidated. There has been a radical change of opinion and conceptions of the prolonged «non-calcaemic» effects of vitamin D, which underlie various physiological functions and play the role of one of the universal regulators of homeostasis [3, 6, 8, 17]. Vitamin D deficiency, a common condition in the general population, is, on the contrary, closely related to an increased risk of both communicable and non-communicable diseases, which results in a 6 % increase in overall mortality [6, 7, 10, 13, 15].

As shown in numerous epidemiological studies, vitamin D insufficiency is found in almost half of the world's population [4, 5, 19], including children, because the most active bone growth and mineralization processes occur during childhood and pubescence [6, 7, 14]. It has been shown; in particular, that 30 % to 50 % of the population residing in Europe and the United States have vitamin D insufficiency [17]. Recent population-based studies have demonstrated that the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D among children is also high. For instance, 61 % of children residing in the United States have 25(OH)D concentrations in the range of 15-29 ng/mL, and 9 % of them have levels below 15 ng/mL [21].

Notwithstanding the growing relevance of this problem, the question of optimal dosing and, which is also important, optimal duration of cholecalciferol supplementation remains unanswered [2, 5, 11, 12, 18, 20, 22]. The choice which, unfortunately, has been dominant in this country to this day, is the so-called «seasonal» vitamin D supplementation method, which involves administration of cholecalciferol only during the autumn and winter period of the year; in the Southern regions, this period often lasts only 5 to 6 months, which is definitely an insufficient time to achieve and maintain an optimal calcifediol concentration [2, 5, 7, 9].

European investigators have established the following safe average daily allowances for vitamin D: 400-1000 IU/ day for newborns and infants and 600-1000 lU/day for children aged 1 year to 18 years. Vitamin D deficiency is partially compensated (i. e. the 25(OH)D concentration increases to >30 ng/mL) and no hypercalcaemia occurs in children and adolescents given such doses for 6 months. 25(OH)D concentrations of 30 ng/mL or higher are required for manifesta-

tion of the extraskeletal effects of vitamin D. Additionally, the upper limit for serum calcifediol was established (30-50 ng/ mL or 75-125 nmol/L) at which a switch to prophylactic cholecalciferol supplementation is recommended, because any levels of calcifediol above 50 ng/mL are considered by the authors to be a «high concentration necessitating a decrease of the therapeutic dose»[14, 18, 20, 22].

The Endocrine Society of the United States recommends using high doses of vitamin D that allow to reach the 30 ng/mL level. For that purpose, the recommended daily dose is 400-1000 IU (not more than 2000 IU for safety reasons) for infants in the first year of life, 600-1000 lU (not more than 4000 IU) for children and adolescents from 1 year to 18 years of age, and 1500-2000 IU/day (not more than 10000 IU/day) for adults over 18 years of age [14, 16, 18].

Domestic experts have developed a so-called «scalelike» dosing regimen for vitamin D supplementation in children of different age groups [9]. According to this regimen, the recommended daily allowances for vitamin D are as follows: 500 IU/day for infants under 4 months of age (800-1000 IU/day for prematurely born infants), 1000 IU/ day for infants and children aged from 4 months to 4 years; 1500 IU/day for the age interval of 4 to 10 years, and 2000 IU/day for children from 10 to 16 years of age [2, 5, 9].

The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between the duration of administration of different cholecalciferol doses and the 25(OH)D concentration in infants during their first year of life.

Material and Methods. The study sample consisted of 496 infants aged 1 to 12 months; 247 (49.8 %) of them were breastfed and 249 (50.2 %) were formula-fed.

Inclusion criteria: practically healthy infants aged 1 to 12 months without organic diseases and genetic syndromes, possibility of blood sampling, as well as Parental Informed Consent for recruitment in the study. Exclusion criteria: infants with a diagnosis of rickets, impaired hepatic (jaundice, diarrhea) or renal function, intrauterine growth restriction/hypotrophy grade 2-3, malabsorption syndrome, as well as impaired mental development.

Regular vitamin D supplementation was administered to 191 breastfed infants (77.3 %): 138 of them (72.3 %) received a 500 IU/day dose and 53 subjects (27.7 %) were given doses in the range of 1000-1500 IU/day. In the formula-fed arm, prevention of rickets and vitamin D insufficiency was used in 156 infants (62.7 %): 113 of them (72.4 %) received cholecalciferol preparations at a daily dose of 500 IU, and 43 infants (27.6 %) were administered daily doses in the range of 1000 to 1500 IU.

All subjects were divided into four groups depending on the duration of vitamin D supplementation: up to 8 weeks (n=85), 8-15 weeks (n=97), 16-24 weeks (n=59), and over 24 weeks (n=106).

The 25(OH)D determination was performed by the immunofluorescence assay, using a Liaison DiaSorin Pleutschland GmbH analyzer (Germany).

Results pertaining to vitamin D insufficiency were interpreted in accordance with the recommendations of the International Society of Endocrinology (2011): 25(OH)D concentrations below 10 ng/mL corresponded to severe vitamin D deficiency; levels in the range of 10 to 20 ng/ mL were interpreted as a deficiency; 21-29 ng/mL as an insufficiency; and levels in the range of 30 to 100 mg/mL as a normal vitamin D content [18, 22].

Statistical analysis and evaluation of study results were performed using the Microsoft Excel, AtteStat, and Statis-tica 10.0 application packages. The Shapiro-Wilk test was applied for determination of the type of data distribution. For parametric quantitative variables, the arithmetic mean (M) and the standard error (m) were calculated. For non-parametric qualitative variables, the median (Me) and the quar-tiles [25Q - 75Q] were estimated. Student's t-test was used for estimation of intergroup differences in case of normally distributed parametric data; the Mann - Whitney U-test and the Wilcoxon test were applied for non-parametric quantitative data showing non-normal distribution. The Pearson chi-squared test (x2) with adjustments for small-sized samples and the Fisher exact test (if one of the values was below 4 and the total number of values was less than 30) were applied for estimation of the statistical significance of differences between the quantitative data. The paired Pearson (r) and Kendall correlation coefficients were used for evaluation of relationships between the parameters. Differences were considered statistically significant at p<0.05 [1].

Results and Discussion. Subjects under the age of 12 months that were included in this study demonstrated rather low vitamin D levels: the median serum 25(OH)D concentration was found to be 28.5 [18.2-39.75] ng/mL. In the group of children who were administered cholecal-ciferol supplementation for prophylactic purposes, the serum calcifediol concentration was significantly higher than the respective value in the group that received no vitamin D supplementation: 32.5 [21.1-46.1] ng/mL and 21.9 [12.9-30.3] ng/mL, respectively (p<0.001).

Our analysis of the effect of the duration of prophylactic supplementation demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation lasting less than 8 weeks could not ensure an optimal vitamin D content in study subjects (Table).

Median serum 25(OH)D concentration in infants under the age of 12 months by duration of cholecalciferol supplementation

The note: p - significance of the difference in the parameter with infants administered cholecalciferol supplementation for up to 8 weeks.

Analyzing the data included in Table, one can see that the average daily prophylactic dose of cholecalciferol did not change with statistical significance in the analyzed groups (p>0.05). At the same time, vitamin D supplementation courses lasting more than 8 weeks had a significant effect on the 25(OH)D concentration, as compared with shorter courses. Infants who received cholecalciferol supplementation for 8 to 15 weeks, had calcifediol levels that were 1.49 - fold (p<0.005) higher, those given cholecalciferol for 16 to 23 weeks had 1.64 - fold (p<0.001) higher levels, and those who received cholecalciferol for more than 24 weeks had 1.67 - fold (p<0.001) higher levels compared with subjects given vitamin D supplementation for not more than 2 months.

Analyzing the structure of vitamin D insufficiency by duration of supplementation, we found that vitamin D supplementation given for 8-15 weeks resulted in a reduction in the number of patients with severe vitamin D deficiency, from 23.5 % to 9.2 % (p<0.001). Besides, the same duration of supplementation resulted in a statistically significant increase in the number of infants with optimal vitamin D levels, as compared with shorter courses lasting up to 8 weeks, from 31.8 % to 57.7 % (p<0.001). A subsequent increase in the duration of cholecalciferol supplementation to 24 weeks or longer was associated with further increments in the 25(OH)D level and in the number of infants with normal vitamin D content.

The Figure 1 presents obtained data on the structure of the effect of the duration of cholecalciferol supplementation at different prophylactic doses.

This analysis shows that the advantage of daily doses in the range of 1000-1500 lU/day over the 500 lU/day dose is clearly manifested with any duration of the cholecalciferol supplementation course. It is also apparent, at the same time, that neither the 500 IU/day dose nor the 1000-1500 IU/day doses can supply enough vitamin D to the infant's body if given for less than 8 weeks; however, the serum calcifediol concentration obtained with the 1000-1500 IU/day prophylactic doses even after such short course is significantly higher than that achieved with 500 IU/day supplementation. With courses lasting longer than 8 weeks, the 25(OH)D concentration obtained with the 1000-1500 IU/day doses is significantly higher than that achieved with the 500 IU/day dose after supplementation for 8 to 15 weeks (p<0.001) or more than 24 weeks (p<0.001).

Analyzing how often serum 25(OH)D concentrations above 30 ng/mL could be achieved in infants administered the prophylactic doses (Fig. 2), we demonstrated that the target could be achieved only in 30 % of subjects given the 500 IU/day dose and in 37 % of infants who received the 1000-1500 IU/day doses if supplementation lasted less than 8 weeks (p>0.05).

Afterwards, as the duration of cholecalciferol supplementation at 1000-1500 lU/day increased, the proportion of infants achieving normal vitamin D content significantly exceeded that found in infants given the 500 I U/day ose (p<0.001). Characteristically, even after 24 weeks of cholecalciferol supplementation at the 500 lU/day dose, the proportion of infants achieving normal vitamin D content did not exceed 60 %, thus indicating insufficient efficacy of this prophylactic cholecalciferol dose that is conventionally used in this country.

Before the introduction of supplemental feeding, the principal source of cholecalciferol during the first year of life is breast milk or milk formulas. The content of chole-calciferol in modern adapted milk formulas is strictly regulated at the level of 400 - 500 IU per litre of finished product [5, 7, 14], whereas the content of vitamin D in breast milk is significantly lower, lying in the range of 12 to 110 IU/L according to different sources [23, 24].

Formula-fed infants have significantly higher serum calcifediol concentrations compared with breastfed infants: 31.5 [22.2-39.3] ng/mL and 23.7 [10.9-38.8] ng/ mL, respectively (p=0.0006).

We analyzed the effects of prophylactic cholecalciferol supplementation on the vitamin D content by the type of feeding. The Figure 3 shows the changes in median serum calcifediol concentration observed in breastfed infants.

mL in the first quarter (p<0.05), 30.3 [18.3-38.8] ng/mL in the second (p<0.05), 25.85 [22.8-34.7] ng/mL in the third (p<0.01), and 32.65 [16.6-43.4] ng/mL in the fourth quarter (p>0.05) of the first year of life. Apparently, the use of the 500 lU/day dose in breastfed infants is far from fully consistent with the current strategy of achieving optimal vitamin D content throughout life, because a stable level of 30 ng/mL is only achieved by the fourth quarter of life if this dose is given.

Vitamin D supplementation with doses in the range of 1000-1500 lU/day results in a higher calcifediol increment in infants in the first, second, and third quarters, compared not only with infants receiving no vitamin D supplementation but also with those given the 500 IU/ day dose. It is evident that the extremely low content of cholecalciferol in breast milk warrants a recommendation to start vitamin D supplementation in breastfed infants as soon as possible and give it all year round; the recommended dose of cholecalciferol for breastfed infants is at least 1,000 lU/day.

Our analysis conducted in the group of infants given adapted milk formulas demonstrated similar changes (Fig. 4).

Fig. 3. Changes in 25(OH)D concentration in breastfed infants during their first year of life

Figure 3 demonstrates that breastfed infants given no cholecalciferol supplementation had extremely low vitamin D content practically throughout the first year of life: 7.87 [4.5-14.4] ng/mL in the first quarter, 17.5 [13.022.2] ng/mL in the second, and 16.4 [9.0-21.2] ng/mL in the third quarter, respectively, which is considered to be indicative of vitamin D deficiency. The 25(OH)D increment to 43.3 ng/mL in the fourth quarter was probably due to the diet becoming significantly richer as a result of the introduction of cholecalciferol-fortified supplemental feeding.

ln breastfed infants, daily vitamin D supplementation with the prophylactic 500 lU/day dose was associated with an increase in serum 25(OH)D: 19.0 [8.39-32.7] ng/

Fig. 4. Changes in 25(OH)D concentration in formula-fed infants during their first year of life

Formula-fed infants who receive no vitamin D supplementation also have 25(OH)D concentrations that are lower throughout infancy than those in infants receiving cholecalciferol supplementation. Although their median 25(OH)D concentration is higher than that in breastfed infants, it still lies in the range of 20-30 ng/mL characteristic of vitamin D insufficiency. lt is essential to underline that formula feeding without additional use of cholecal-ciferol supplements allows to achieve normal saturation with vitamin D in only 23 % of infants in their first year of life. Notwithstanding the fact that fortification of currently available adapted formulas with cholecalciferol significantly decreases the risk of severe vitamin D deficiency, it is still obviously insufficient to achieve a normal vitamin D status and does not allow to completely satisfy an infant's requirements during the first year of life in the absence of pharmacological supplementation.

Cholecalciferol supplementation at 500 lU/day was associated with an increasein serum 25(OH)D: 27.0 [19.637.45] ng/mL in the first quarter (p<0.05), 33.75 [28.546.1] ng/mL in the second (p<0.01), 37.1 [31.8-43.6] ng/ mL in the third quarter (p<0.05), and with a certain decrease, to 26.25 [18.0-35.8] ng/mL, in the fourth quarter (p>0.05). Daily cholecalciferol supplementation at 10001500 lU/day is characterized by an even higher increase in 25(OH)D, with the concentrations in the third and fourth quarters being 59.7 [48.2-71.8] ng/mL (p<0.001) and 61.25 [34.9-88.5] ng/mL (p<0.05), respectively.

calciferol supplementation over a few months, and this combination ensures a normal 25(OH)D level in the majority of infants. Correlation analysis demonstrated a direct relationship between the duration of cholecalciferol supplementation and the 25(OH)D level (r=0.3, p=0.00004).

Conclusions. The results obtained in this study demonstrate rather low vitamin D levels in infants. Supplementation of 500 IU/day as a prophylactic dose given for less than 8 weeksdoes not allow to achieve an optimal 25(OH)D level. Use of higher prophylactic doses of vitamin D (10001500 IU/day) is justified if the aim is to maintain an optimal serum calcifediol concentration in infants in their first year of life, and supplementation should last longer than 8 weeks.

We analyzed the effects of prophylactic cholecalci-ferol supplementation on the vitamin D content by the type of feeding. Low content of cholecalciferol in breast milk warrants a recommendation to start vitamin D supplementation in breastfed infants as soon as possible and give it all year round; the recommended dose of cholecalciferol for breastfed infants is at least 1000 IU/day. Infants given adapted formulas fortified with cholecalciferol are at a lower risk of developing severe vitamin D deficiency, but this feeding is still obviously insufficient to achieve a normal vitamin D status and does not allow to completely satisfy an infant's requirements during the first year of life in the absence of pharmacological supplementation.
