Objectives: Vitamin D plays a crucial role in maintaining bone and muscle health is associated with various conditions. Risk factors for reduced vitamin levels include occupation. The aim of this study was to explore the association between shift work among female workers. Methods: This cross-sectional conducted 304 women from an industrial group located southern Brazil. deficiency defined as serum 25(OH)D < 20 ng/mL, deficiency/insufficiency 30 ng/mL. Work data were collected through interviews using start end times shifts, classified "day shift" (6:00 AM ≤ hh:hh 10:00 PM) "night (10:00 PM 6:00 AM), respectively. expressed prevalence ratio (PR), Poisson regression adjusted confounding variables. Results: 36.5% (95% CI: 31.1-41.9), while insufficiency 75.7% 70.8-80.5). After adjustment, significant found, 65% 17% higher probabilities having (PR = 1.65; 95% 1.23-2.22; p 0.001) 1.17; 1.02-1.35; 0.030) nightshift workers compared dayshift Conclusions: findings indicate high hypovitaminosis Brazilian fixed-shift well probability

Vitamin D deficiency (Vt.D) is common in adolescents and influenced by some factors, including puberty. It impacted serotonin levels, thus increasing the risk of depression. This study was conducted to assess association between vitamin depression its effect on adolescent students. A cross-sectional 130 students aged 12-18 years, November 2023 February 2024. investigated serum Vt.D, hematological indices such as (RBC, Hb, MCV, MCH, adolescents, addition, it dependent Beck Depression Inventory calculate scales were enrolled 12-18, mean ± SD: 14.85±2.19. The results indicated that 77(59.2%) had symptoms, median (IQR) scores16(13₋21.5), 53(40.8%) with non-depressed (scores 5(2.5₋7), who considered control group, a statistically significant these groups (p=0.035). significantly more prevalent females 46(59.7%) than males 31(40.3%), p=0.014. Deficiency Vt.D found 63.6% total depressive nondepressive 3.8%, p<0.0001, (B: 3.199, OR: 24.5, 95%CI: 5.96 -100.74). Serum level decreased 18.8(13.1 ₋28.9) ng/ml, compared 52.22(42.2₋62.4), (p< 0.0001), lowest type severe 10.74±3.52. group lower levels status non-depressive (143.39±60.91 vs. 314.05±46.11), p = 0.001).
