RÉSUMÉ
Introduction. Malgré un fort ensoleillement, la carence en vitamine D reste un problème de santé publique en Afrique subsaharienne où prédomine la drépanocytose. L’objectif de l’étude était de rechercher une corrélation entre le taux sérique de la Vitamine D (25(OH)D) et les crises vaso-occlusives (CVO) chez les enfants drépanocytaires suivis au CME/FCB. Méthodes. Entre octobre 2019 et septembre 2020, une étude transversale analytique a été réalisé chez des enfants drépanocytaires SS de 3 à 18 ans au CME/FCB. Les données étaient collectées à l’aide d’un questionnaire et le dosage de la vitamine D était fait. Les données ont été analysées à l’aide du logiciel R version 3.6.1. La corrélation était établie à l’aide du coefficient de corrélation de Pearson avec vérification des conditions de validité du modèle d’ANOVA. Le seuil de significativité était à 5%. Résultats. Le taux de 25(OH)D était bas chez 83,7% des patients, soit 61,1% une carence et 22,6% une insuffisance. Sur les deux dernières années, 98% avaient eu les CVO allant de modérée à sévère ; 66% avaient été hospitalisés et 81% avaient été transfusés. Le nombre élevé de CVO était associé à un faible taux de 25(OH)D (Cor=-0,51, p<0.001***) ; l’intensité élevée des CVO étaient corrélés à un taux de 25(OH)D bas (Cor=-0,33 p=0,02673). Conclusion. La majorité des enfants drépanocytaires suivi au CME/FCB avait un taux sérique de 25(OH)D bas. Le nombre et l’intensité élevés des CVO étaient associés à un taux sanguin bas de 25(OH)D d’où la nécessité d’une supplémentation.
ABSTRACT
Background. Despite high sunshine levels, vitamin D deficiency remains a public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa where sickle cell disease predominates. The objective of the study was to investigate correlation between serum 25(OH)D levels and Vaso-occlusive crisis (VOCs) in sickle cell disease children followed at the CME/FCB. Methods: Between October 2019 and September 2020, an analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in 43 children with sickle cell disease SS aged 3-18 years at the CME/FCB. Data were collected using a questionnaire and vitamin D measurement was performed. Data were analyzed using R version 3.6.1 software. Correlation was established using Pearson's correlation coefficient with verification of the validity conditions of the ANOVA model. The significance threshold set at p < 0.05. Results: The 25(OH)D level was low in 83,7% of the patients, 61,1% deficiency and 22,6% insufficiency. Over the last two years, 98% had moderate to severe VOCs; 66% had been hospitalized and 81% had received transfusions. High number of VOCs was associated with low 25(OH)D (Cor=-0.51, p<0.001***); high intensity of VOCs was correlated with low 25(OH)D level (Cor=-0.33 p=0.02673). Conclusion. Most children with sickle cell disease followed up at the CME/FCB had low 25(OH)D serum levels. The high number and intensity of VOCs was associated with low 25(OH)D serum levels, hence the need for supplementation.
