Background: The extent of the association between vitamin D deficiency and knee osteoarthritis remains inadequately understood.

Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between vitamin D levels and knee osteoarthritis through a cross-sectional analysis.

Methods: This retrospective study involved an analysis of knee radiographs and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-(OH) vitamin D3) levels in a cohort of 3424 individuals (2901 women and 523 men). Knee osteoarthritis severity was evaluated using the Kellgren-Lawrence radiological scoring system.

Results: Of the participants, 49.2% (n= 1,683) were diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis. Among these patients, the levels of adjusted 25-(OH) vitamin D3 were significantly lower (p< 0.001). Regression analysis revealed a significant association between vitamin D deficiency and knee osteoarthritis, with an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.7 (95% CI: 1.5-2.0; p< 0.001). Notably, a stronger association was observed between vitamin D deficiency and knee osteoarthritis in women under 65 compared to those aged 65 and above.

Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate a higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Maintaining adequate serum 25-(OH) vitamin D3 levels may prevent knee osteoarthritis, especially in women below 65.

Both Vitamin D and Magnesium appear to be needed if have Knee Osteoarthritis - Oct 2023

The maintenance of various physiological cellular processes requires mineral magnesium (Mg). The purpose of the study was to determine a possible association between Mg level and vitamin D levels, bone mineral density (BMD), chronic diseases, and radiographic stage in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study included 98 individuals (62 female and 36 male) who had been diagnosed with at least grade 1 knee OA. Age, sex, smoking, body mass index (BMI), family history of osteoporosis, menopausal status, duration of menopause, the presence of chronic diseases (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia, coronary artery disease, hypothyroidism) and radiological stage of knee OA were gathered from all patients. Also, serum calcium, Mg, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone (PTH) and 25(OH)-vitamin D levels were recorded. Additionally, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) was used to measure the BMD of the lumbar vertebrae (L1-L4) and femoral neck as well as anteroposterior radiography of the knee in all patients. T scores ≤-2.5 were accepted as evidence of osteoporosis. The mean age of the study population was 59.15 ± 10.58 years.

The level of Mg significantly correlated with age, smoking, presence of chronic disease, duration of menopause, the level of vitamin D and PTH, and femoral neck T score (p<0.05). This study provides data supporting the relationship between magnesium levels and PTH and vitamin D levels, bone mineral density, and chronic disease. Future research is needed to examine the potential link between knee osteoarthritis and magnesium status.

Knee osteoarthritis pain reduced by 4,000 IU of Vitamin D for 3 months (35 ng avg.) – Dec 2022

This trial aimed to determine the possible therapeutic and immunomodulatory effects of vitamin D3 in patients with knee OA. In this open-label clinical trial, symptoms were assessed over 3 months in patients with primary knee OA receiving oral vitamin D3 4000 IU/day. Clinical response was evaluated at baseline and 3 months using WOMAC subscores and VAS. Serum levels of cytokines IL-1ß, TNF-a, IL-13, IL-17, IL-33, IL-4, and IL-10 were determined by ELISA method. Eighty patients with knee OA were included. All 80 completed the study; the median 25(OH)D3 level was 23.1 ng/ml at baseline and increased by 12.3 ng/ml after treatment. Vitamin D3 after 3 months of supplementation induced a significant reduction in VAS pain and WOMAC subscores. Using OMERACT-OARSI criteria, 86.7% of patients treated with vitamin D3 responded to treatment. At the end of 3 months, systemic values of IL-1ß (p < 0.01), IL-23 (p < 0.01), and IL-33 (p < 0.01) were significantly increased, values of TNF-a (p < 0.01), IL-13 (p < 0.01), and IL-17 (p < 0.01) were significantly decreased, while value of IL-4 was not significantly changed. No adverse events were detected. Treatment with vitamin D is associated with improvement in pain, as well as stiffness and physical function. Vitamin D supplementation increased systemic values of IL-33. Our results indicate that vitamin D3 supplementation may be used as a novel therapeutic in knee OA. Future studies are needed to investigate a potential role of IL-33 in the pathogenesis of knee OA.
