Summary

Recent studies showed that vitamin D and A has an effect in improving sputum conversion in tuberculosis. This study aims to find out the effect of vitamin D 1000 IU and A 6000 IU supplementation on Tuberculosis patients with vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism, who live in North Sumatera, Indonesia. This study is a randomized control clinical trial, with 48 tuberculosis patients with vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism which are TaqI and FokI participating, divided into two groups, each with 24 participants, which are treatment group (I) which receives nutritional counseling, vitamin D 1000 IU, vitamin A 6000 IU, and control group (C) which only receives nutritional counseling for 28 days. Patients who participated was found to be heterozygous with TaqI (T\>C) or FokI (C\>T) genotype variants.

Recent studies showed that vitamin D and A has an effect in improving sputum conversion in tuberculosis. This study aims to find out the effect of vitamin D 1000 IU and A 6000 IU supplementation on Tuberculosis patients with vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism, who live in North Sumatera, Indonesia. This study is a randomized control clinical trial, with 48 tuberculosis patients with vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism which are TaqI and FokI participating, divided into two groups, each with 24 participants, which are treatment group (I) which receives nutritional counseling, vitamin D 1000 IU, vitamin A 6000 IU, and control group (C) which only receives nutritional counseling for 28 days. Patients who participated was found to be heterozygous with TaqI (T\>C) or FokI (C\>T) genotype variants. The result of this study showed that at the start, serum 25(OH)D levels in group I were lower compared to group C (19.746.59 ng/mL vs 25.21±7.57 ng/mL). Group I showed significant correlation between vitamin D level categories with sputum conversion (mean: standard deviation= 2.25±0.68 weeks). Supplementation of vitamin D 1000 IU provides an accelerated sputum conversion in tuberculosis patients with vitamin D receptor gene polymorphism.
