The increased prevalence of vitamin D deficiency became an alarming health concern despite the accumulative evidence exploring its crucial role in various body organs. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major, progressive health condition that can lead to premature morbidity and mortality. The link between the risk of T2DM, insulin resistance and vitamin D deficiency has perplexed the medical society due to the controversy in the data available. Saudi Arabia (SA) is a sunny region, however ample amount of data reported the increased prevalence of vitamin D deficiency along with T2DM. This huge rise in SA found to be in concordance with the high global rate of both conditions. This study aimed to compare vitamin D deficiency between Saudi and non-Saudi nationalities, between healthy and T2DM patients. It aimed also to assess the possible associated factors for vitamin D deficiency and to study the impact of vitamin D supplementation on insulin resistance, and glycemic control on T2DM male patients living in Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah. This study consisted of three phases. Phase one and two were cross-sectional studies, while phase three was double-blind, randomized control trial. All phases were carried on the Medical Unit, Taibah University. 2019 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/82262/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/82262/1/82262.pdf text en public phd doctoral Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Pharmacy Abdulrassol, Bassam

description Vitamin D, or the “sunshine” hormone became an attractable topic that recently captivates many researchers. The increased prevalence of vitamin D deficiency became an alarming health concern despite the accumulative evidence exploring its crucial role in various body organs. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major, progressive health condition that can lead to premature morbidity and mortality.
