This case-control study was conducted on 90 febrile children referred to Amirkola Children’s Hospital from 19 February to 21 August 2021. Febrile children with and without seizures were considered as case and control groups, respectively. Vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase were evaluated. Results. The mean level of vitamin D was not significant between the 2 groups ( P = .62), but the mean level of alkaline phosphatase was higher in the case group, statistically ( P = .04). 46.75% and 15.6% of case group, 28.9% and 26.7% of control group had deficiency and insufficiency levels of vitamin D, respectively ( P = .17).
