Association between calcium and vitamin D in geriatric patients hospitalized for Covid-19: Results from the GERIA-COVID study
ABSTRACT The deficiency of 25OH vitamin D (25[OH]D) is common in the older population. It physiologically triggers secondary hyperparathyroidism resulting in normal circulating calcium levels. Adjusted calcium (CaA) is estimated by the PAYNE method and several studies report a misclassification of calcium status by corrected calcium compared to ionized calcium (CaI) in older patients. Hypocalcemia is common in older COVID-19 patients. Blunted secondary hyperparathyroidism explain this high prevalence of hypocalcemia in COVID-19. However, no studies have focused on patients older than 75 years despite the high mortality rate in this population. In the present study, the association between the different types of calcium (CaI, CaA, and total calcium [CaT]) and 25(OH)D deficiency (below 50 nmol/L) was investigated. The study of the correlation between each type of calcium was performed secondarily. Observational monocentric study focused on the GERIA-COVID database during the second wave of COVID-19 in France from October 2020 to March 2021. COVID-19 was diagnosed with RT-PCR and/or chest CT-scan. A population of 181 older COVID-19 patients (86.4 years ± 5.7) was analyzed. Sixty-three patients (34.8%) were deficient in 25(OH)D. The prevalence of total and ionized hypocalcemia was 44.1% and 39.2%, respectively. A negative association was reported in linear regression between 25(OH)D deficiency and CaA (β =-0.052 [- 0.093; -0.010], p = 0.015) as well as with CaT (β = -0.05 [-0.09; -0.01], p =0.034) in the multivariate model. No association was found between vitamin D deficiency and CaI. In the multivariate models, there was no association between each type of calcium and PTH. CaI was correlated with CaT (r = 0.39, p < 0.001) and with CaA (r = 0.15, p = 0.043). Secondary hyperparathyroidism was not activated in the context of COVID-19 in this study. After reviewing the literature, this appears to be the first study in older patients to expose such results..
