Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the correlation between vitamin D and Colorectal Cancer.
Methods: In this prospective study, data from 100 patients with newly diagnosed colon cancer were taken non-randomly and data’s from100 other control cases were taken from December 2019 to December 2020 in Rizgary Oncology Center in Erbil to find out the relation between vitamin D and colorectal cancer.
Results: The current study revealed that, mean of vitamin D level of patients were 6.833(SD=2.940), while mean of vitamin D level were 14.435(SD=4.356) in control group. Concerning the level of vitamin D level based on stage IV cases have lower vitamin D level compared to other earlier stages, the stage of disease, In stage I-III cases vitamin D level was 8.456(SD=6.696), while the mean of vitamin D in stage IV colon cancer cases were 6.723(SD=3.191).
Conclusion: This study found out that vitamin D deficiency is common in colon cancer cases with more than 95 percent of cases having vitamin D deficiency. Another finding of this study is that when the mean vitamin D level within the deficit group is compared to the control group within the same group. The colorectal cancer cases have lower mean vitamin D level.
