Abstract: Vitamin D is a steroid prohormone synthesized in the skin
following UV exposure or else acquired by supplemental or dietary intake.
Originally, it was described as regulator of calcium homeostasis, but has since
been shown to play a much greater, comprehensive role including protection
against immune dysfunction, cancer, cardiovascular conditions, hypertension,
metabolic syndrome (MS) and diabetes. The role of vitamin D in modulating
metabolic processes is increasingly recognized, with emerging evidence
suggesting a link between vitamin D deficiency and the pathogenesis of Type II
Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Given the high prevalence of both conditions globally,
understanding this relationship could have significant clinical implications. This
study seeks to investigate the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among newly
diagnosed T2DM patients and its potential impact on managing the disease
effectively.
