BackgroundThe association between 25(OH)D and pubertal timing has not been well studied. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between 25(OH)D levels and pubertal timing in children.MethodsParticipants aged 6–14 years who had available nutritional and serum sex hormone (total testosterone (TT) and estradiol (E2)) information (n =1318) were included. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the associations between 25(OH)D and sex steroid hormones among children in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2015–2016. Puberty was indicated by high levels of steroid hormones (TT≥50 ng/dL in men, E2≥20 pg/ml in women) or menarche.ResultsSerum 25(OH)D and pubertal status showed the same trend in both males and females. In the male population, the OR values of serum 25(OH)D between 50 and |
