Objective: To assess first trimester serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] status and factors related to deficient levels in pregnant Spanish women. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out among 502 gravids (11 to 14 weeks) living in the Spanish Mediterranean sea coast (near Almeria at latitude 36 degrees N, longitude 2 degrees W) to whom serum 25(OH)D levels were measured by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Logistic and multiple linear regression analysis were performed to assess the influence of ethnicity, immigration status, season of the year at blood sampling, body mass index (BMI), parity and smoking habit over 25(OH)D levels. Results: The median (interquartile range, IQR) serum 25(OH)D levels for the entire sample was 27.4 ng/mL (IQR 20.9-32.8). Only 35.9% of participants had adequate serum 25(OH)D levels (>= 30 ng/mL) whereas in 41.4% and 22.7% these levels were found to be insufficient (20-29.9 ng/mL) and deficient (
