TLDR Low vitamin D levels are linked to more skin problems.
The document "Relationship between the level of vitamin D in blood flow and skin dermatosis" presents a study involving 500 participants, investigating the correlation between vitamin D levels and skin conditions. The study found that individuals with lower vitamin D levels were more likely to suffer from skin conditions such as dermatosis, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, ichthyosis, acne, and suppurative hydradenitis. In specific cases, lower vitamin D levels were associated with higher severity of conditions like psoriasis and acne. The document also discusses studies involving patients with vitiligo, systemic lupus erythematosus, alopecia areata, and melanoma, but no significant correlations or effects of vitamin D supplementation were found. The document concludes that vitamin D plays a crucial role in dermatology, but further research is needed to establish the optimal level of vitamin D in the blood and evaluate the impact of vitamin D supplements on dermatoses.
