Introduction: Recently vitamin D deficiency has been linked to autoimmune, inflammatory and carcinogenic diseases. In autoimmune diseases, vitamin D deficiency might be associated with risk of both susceptibility and severity of the bone mineral density. Objective: Our study aims at finding vitamin D deficiency in axial spondyloarthropathy and its effect on bone integrity. Material: We compared 95 axial spondyloarthropathy patients and 75 control patients regarding Vit-D levels, bone markers, CRP, ALP, PTH, BMD and sunshine exposure. Conclusion: We conclude significant correlation between vitamin D deficiency and axial spondyloarthropathy and significantly lower femoral neck T and Z scores in BMD than controls.
