該前瞻性研究對香港中國裔孕婦的25羥基維生素D（25（OH）D）的水平及其影響因素進行調查，并對25（OH）D與甲狀旁腺激素（PTH）、孕期肌肉酸痛、不良妊娠結局、孕期及産後骨質流失，以及嬰兒的骨骼發育等關係進行探索，力求建立適用于香港的中國孕婦的25（OH）D正常值。 / 共有237名單胎妊娠婦女以及62名多胎妊娠的婦女在2010年8月至2011年11月間參加本研究中的隊列研究，分別在參加研究時（<20 孕周）、24-28孕周、31-36孕周以及産後6-11周進行抽血測量血清25（OH）D以及PTH水平，同時填寫一份包括對每月攝取含維生素D的食物以及營養補充劑頻度、接受日照情況及喜好、以及肌肉不適等情況的問卷，并在24-28孕周進行75克口服葡萄糖耐量試驗。參與隊列研究的單胎孕婦在20周前、31-36孕周以及産後隨訪時接受用定量超聲測量非優勢手的橈骨遠端以及中指近掌指骨的骨質超聲速率（SoS）。在産後複查時，對其嬰兒左側腓骨中部的骨質SoS進行測量。記錄婦女各次檢查時的體重、抽血月份紫外線輻射強度的歷史記錄、以及妊娠結局。另外募集一批孕婦參加病例對照研究，比較患早產（PTB）、子癇前期（PET）、妊娠糖尿病 （GDM）以及胎兒生長受限（FGR）併發癥的婦女與對照組 （體重指數以及抽血時紫外線強度配對）的血清25（OH）D水平。 / 孕婦在孕期的平均25（OH）D水平在44.7 ± 12.6 至48.9 ± 17.1 nmol/l範圍，25（OH）D水平與體重指數、維生素D營養補充劑、抽血時紫外線強度以及個人對陽光的喜好情況有關，而與胎兒數量、孕次、孕周以及終止妊娠無關。 / 單胎妊娠的孕婦三個孕期的血清25（OH）D與PTH水平均負相關，但在多胎妊娠中，二者無明顯相關性。PTH在孕期以及産後的變化相對不受25（OH）D影響。孕婦25（OH）D的水平與孕婦肌肉酸痛癥狀、産後恢復、孕期及產褥期骨質流失以及嬰兒骨質無關。患早期PTB（< 34孕周）、PET或FGR的孕婦的血清25（OH）D比對照組低，但GDM患者的25（OH）D水平與對照組無差別。血清25（OH）D低於34.3 nmol/l者的早期早產以及子癇前期的風險增高，低於50 nmol/l者發生胎兒生長受限的風險增高。服用維生素D補充劑情況可能影響25（OH）D與FGR的關係。 / 總而言之，血清25（OH）D水平不足以全面完全反映孕期維生素D的情況，對預測不良妊娠結局的作用有限。 / This prospective study explored the maternal serum level of 25(OH)D in Chinese pregnant women in Hong Kong and the factors affecting 25(OH)D level. It also explored the correlation between maternal 25(OH)D with PTH level, maternal musculoskeletal complaints, adverse pregnancy outcome, maternal bone turnover during pregnancy and postpartum, and the bone development of the offspring, aiming to explore and establish a normal range of 25(OH)D level in pregnancy for the Hong Kong Chinese women. / A total of 237 women with singleton pregnancy and 62 women with multiple pregnancies were recruited for the cohort study from August, 2010 to November, 2011. Maternal blood samplings for 25(OH)D and PTH measurements were performed at recruitment, 24-28 weeks, 31-36 weeks of gestation, and 6-11 weeks postpartum respectively. A questionnaire which included the monthly dietary and supplement intake of vitamin D, questions about sunlight exposure, and musculoskeletal complaints was administered on each visit. A 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed on cohort cases at 24-28 weeks of gestation. Measurements of the speed of sound (SoS) at the distal one third of the maternal radius and the proximal phalanx of the third finger of the non-dominant side were performed with quantitative ultrasonography (QUS) measurement during the visits at the first and third trimesters, and postnatal period. The SoS at the left mid-shaft tibia of the offspring was determined during the postnatal visit. Maternal characteristics, ultraviolet radiation (UVR) intensity at blood sampling, and pregnancy outcome, were also recorded. Cases with pregnancy complications were recruited for case-control studies, and maternal 25(OH)D level was examined with respect to preterm birth (PTB), preeclampsia (PET), gestational diabetes (GDM), and fetal growth restriction (FGR, birthweight below the 10th percentile of the customized estimated birthweight). The controls were matched for booking body mass index (BMI) and UVR intensity at blood sampling. / The mean 25(OH)D level in ranged from 44.7 ± 12.6 to 48.9 ± 17.1 nmol/l in the three trimesters, and was related to BMI, vitamin D supplementation, UVR intensity at blood sampling, and the acceptance of sunlight exposure, but not the number of fetus, parity, gestational age, or the completion of pregnancy. / Inverse correlation between PTH and 25(OH)D were observed in singleton, but not in multiple, pregnancy. The change in maternal PTH level is found to be relatively independent from that of 25(OH)D. There was no correlation between maternal 25(OH)D level with musculoskeletal complaints, postnatal recovery, bone turnover during and after pregnancy, or the bone density of the offspring. Maternal 25(OH)D level was lower in women with early PTB ( < 34 weeks), PET, and FGR, but not for GDM. A maternal 25(OH)D level of lower than 34.3nmol/l and 50 nmol/l was associated with increased risk of early PTB, PET, and FGR respectively. But the correlation between maternal 25(OH)D level with FGR might be affected by supplementation. / In conclusion, serum level of 25(OH)D is insufficient in reflecting maternal vitamin D status and metabolism in pregnancy, and is of limited use in predicting adverse pregnancy outcome. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in
