Sağlıklı Çocuklarla, Dil ve Konuşma Bozukluğu Olan Çocuklar Arasında Vitamin D Düzeyinin Karşılaştırılması

Abstract

ÖZ

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, dil ve konuşma bozukluğu olan çocuklar ile vitamin D (25(OH)D3) düzeyi arasındaki ilişki araştırıldı.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Toplam 200 çocuk çalışmaya alındı. Hasta olarak alınan 124 çocukta; kekemelik (n=62), fonksiyonel

dil gelişim bozukluğu (n=40) ve artikülasyon bozukluğu (n=22) vardı. Kontrol grubuna 76 sağlıklı çocuk alındı.

Hastalarda ve sağlıklı çocuklarda plazmada vitamin D seviyesine bakıldı.

Bulgular: Vitamin D seviyesi; kekemeliği olanlarda 23.36±10.01, fonksiyonel dil gelişim bozukluğu olanlarda 17.82±8.28,

artikülasyon bozukluğu olanlarda 23.68±10.95, kontrol grubunda 26.01±7.4 olarak saptandı. Artikülasyon ve kekemelik

ile kontrol grubu arasında vitamin D açısından anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Fonksiyonel dil gelişim bozukluğu olan çocuklarda,

sağlıklı gruba göre vitamin D değeri daha düşüktü ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark saptandı (p<0.001). Ayrıca,

kekemelik şiddeti artıkça vitamin D seviyesinin düşük olduğu saptandı.

Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, vitamin D düzeyi ile fonksiyonel dil gelişim bozukluğu arasında önemli bir bağlantı

olduğu düşünülebilir. Ancak, yine de, dil ve konuşma bozukluğu olan çocuklarda bu bulguları doğrulamak için daha

fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç olduğu kanaatindeyiz.

A Comparison of Vitamin D Levels in Chidren with Language and Speech Disorders and Healthy Children in the Turkish Population

Abstract

ABSTRACT

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between vitamin D [25(OH)] values with the language and

speech disorders in children.

Material and Methods: A total of 200 children were included in the study, comprising 124 children, with stuttering

(n=62), functional language disorder (n=40) and articulation disorder (n=22) as the patient group and a control group

of 76 healthy children. Vitamin D levels were examined in blood samples taken from both the patient group and the

control group.

Results: Serum vitamin D levels were determined as 23.68 ± 10.95 in patients with articulation disorder, 17.82 ± 8.28

in patients with functional language disorder, 23.36 ± 10.01 in patients with stuttering, and 26.01 ± 7.4 in the control

group. Serum vitamin D values were found to be statistically significantly (p<0.001) lower in children with functional

language disorder than in the healthy control group. It was observed that vitamin D decreased as the severity of the

stutter increased.

Conclusion: According to the results of this study, there can be considered to be an important connection between

vitamin D level and functional language disorder. Nevertheless, further studies are needed to confirm these findings in

children with language and speech disorders.
