Could vitamin d levels influence asthma control?
NCT ID NCT07733635
First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study examines whether vitamin D levels are linked to asthma control, lung function, and oxidative stress in Egyptian adults with bronchial asthma. Researchers will measure vitamin D in the blood, assess asthma symptoms with a standard test, and check lung function and markers of oxidative stress. No treatment is given; the goal is to better understand possible connections.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If strong links are found, it could point toward vitamin D as a target for improving asthma management.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to other populations.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
The study population will consist of 200 adult patients with confirmed bronchial asthma recruited from Abbassia Chest Hospital, Cairo, Egypt. Eligible participants will be adults aged ≥18 years with stable asthma at the time of assessment. Participants will be categorized according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D \[25(OH)D\] concentrations into vitamin D deficient (\<20 ng/mL), vitamin D insufficient (20-30 ng/mL), and vitamin D sufficient (\>30 ng/mL) groups. Clinical characteristics, asthma control, pulmonary function, serum vitamin D status, and erythrocyte oxidative stress biomarkers will be assessed during a single study visit.
