Background Owing to hospitalization, reduced functional capacity and consequently, less sunlight exposure, suboptimal vitamin D status (25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D]⩽50 nmol/L) is prevalent among COPD patients. Objective This study aimed to investigate seasonal changes in vitamin D status and any associated changes in fat-free mass (FFM), muscle strength and quality of life (QoL) in COPD patients. Patients and methods COPD patients living in Northern Ireland (n=51) completed study visits at the…

Comparison of the association between circulating vitamin D3 levels and clinical outcomes in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a prospective observational study.
TLDR
Lower concentrations of plasma 25(OH)D3 contributed to lower HR-QOL in patients with asthma, and were associated with severity and risk of future exacerbations in Patients with COPD.
Vitamin D deficiency is associated with respiratory symptoms and airway wall thickening in smokers with and without COPD: a prospective cohort study
TLDR
Vitamin D deficiency was associated with increased respiratory symptoms, decreased functional status, increased frequency of severe exacerbations, as well as airway wall thickening on chest CT scans and the potential impact of vitamin D supplementation to improve disease outcomes.
Age-Dependent Associations Between 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D Levels and COPD Symptoms: Analysis of SPIROMICS.
TLDR
Higher 25-OH-vitamin D levels are associated with more favorable respiratory-specific symptoms and quality-of-life assessments in middle-age but not older COPD individuals, when controlled for clinically relevant covariates.
Should vitamin D be routinely checked for all chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients?
TLDR
Low vitamin D levels are associated with changes in lung function in cases of COPD as well as healthy controls and routine assessment of vitamin D may be undertaken to obviate the effects of low vitmain D level on lung function.
Effect of targeted nutrient supplementation on physical activity and health-related quality of life in COPD: study protocol for the randomised controlled NUTRECOVER trial
TLDR
This study investigates the efficacy of 1 year targeted nutrient supplementation on physical activity level and health-related quality of life in patients with COPD and results will be disseminated through presentations at (inter)national conferences and through peer-reviewed journals.
Bone mineral density and vitamin D levels in patients with group a COPD

    The aging male : the official journal of the International Society for the Study of the Aging Male
  • 2019
TLDR
Vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency is prevalent in COPD patients, and BMD decreases in the early period of the disease, according to a case-control study involving 33 males diagnosed with Group A COPD and 44 age-matched healthy males.
High parathyroid hormone predicts exacerbations in COPD patients with hypovitaminosis D.
Correlation of severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with serum vitamin-D level
TLDR
The serum vitamin D level and its correlation with severity of COPd as assessed by spirometry, COPD assessment test (CAT) and exercise capacity and BMI of COPD patients was studied.
Nutritional support in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): an evidence update.
TLDR
It is likely that targeted multi-modal interventions are required to address energy and protein imbalance, specific nutrient deficiencies, reduced androgens and targeted exercise training to effectively managing the common and costly problem of nutritional depletion in COPD.
A Comprehensive Review on Vitamin D as a Novel Therapeutic Agent in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
TLDR
The hypothesis that vitamin D can act as an effective therapeutic agent for COPD is tested by reviewing the correlation between the two and effectiveness along with the safety of supplemental vitamin D when used to treat chronic bronchitis and emphysema through clinical trials.

Supplemental vitamin D and physical performance in COPD: a pilot randomized trial
TLDR
Among patients with severe COPD, 2000 IU of daily vitamin D for 6 weeks increased 25(OH)D to a level widely considered as normal, however, compared with placebo, short-term vitamin D supplementation had no discernible effect on a simple measure of physical performance.
Vitamin D status is associated with bone mineral density and functional exercise capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
TLDR
The majority of COPD patients had vitamin D deficiency, and plasma 25(OH)D concentration was positively associated with bone density and exercise capacity, and intervention studies are necessary to determine whether vitamin D supplementation is of benefit in the prevention or treatment of osteoporosis and poor exercise capacity in patients with COPD.
Effects of daily vitamin D supplementation on respiratory muscle strength and physical performance in vitamin D-deficient COPD patients: a pilot trial
TLDR
Vitamin D supplementation did not affect (respiratory) muscle strength or physical performance in this pilot trial in vitamin D-deficient COPD patients, and primary outcomes did not differ between the groups after 6 months.
Vitamin D and skeletal muscle strength and endurance in COPD
TLDR
In contrast with healthy controls, muscle strength is not associated with vitamin D levels in COPD, which may represent vitamin D resistance.

Low vitamin D status is associated with reduced muscle mass and impaired physical performance in frail elderly people
TLDR
In this frail elderly population, 25(OH)D status is low and suggests a modest association with reduced ALM and impaired physical performance, which highlights the need for well-designed intervention trials to assess the impact of vitamin D supplementation in pre-frail and frail elderly people.
Hypovitaminosis D is associated with a reduction in upper and lower limb muscle strength and physical performance in post-menopausal women: a retrospective study
TLDR
The data showed that post-menopausal women with hypovitaminosis D had worse upper and lower limb muscle strength and physical performance than subjects with normal levels of 25(OH)D3.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Is Associated with Low Levels of Vitamin D
TLDR
COPD was associated with an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency, and important disease characteristics were significantly related to 25(OH)D levels.

OBJECTIVE In small case-control studies, obesity was associated with worse vitamin D status. Our aim was to assess the association of adiposity (anthropometric measures as well as dual energy x-ray…
Relationship between vitamin D and lung function, physical performance and balance on patients with stage I-III chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
TLDR
Patients with COPD had worst physical functioning, poor balance and less muscle strength, and severe disturbed lung and peripheral muscle functions are more pronounced in COPD patients with vitamin D deficiency.
