Severe traumatic injury leads to persistent injury-associated anemia that is associated with hypercatecholaminemia, systemic inflammation, increased hepcidin and a functional iron deficiency. Vitamin D has been shown to reduce proinflammatory cytokines and hepcidin concentrations. This study aimed to investigate the association of vitamin D status with inflammation, iron biomarkers and anemia following blunt trauma. A prospective observational cohort study comparing blunt trauma patients (n=45) with elective hip replacement patients (n=22) and healthy controls (n=8). Bone marrow ferroportin, transferrin receptor and erythroferrone expression was measured using qPCR. Plasma was assessed for systemic inflammation, erythropoietin, iron regulation and vitamin D (25-OH) concentrations using ELISA. Hemoglobin was measured on the day of discharge. Compared with hip replacement, trauma patients had higher plasma interleukin-6 (90.1 vs. 3.8 pg/mL), C-reactive protein (6223 vs. 2612 ng/mL), and hepcidin (79.3 vs. 21.2 ng/mL) concentrations. Trauma patients had lower vitamin D (25-OH)(12.8 vs. 18.1 ng/mL) and iron (23.5 vs. 59.9 ug/mL) levels compared to hip replacement patients. Despite the higher hepcidin erythropoietin levels, bone marrow erythroferrone expression was increased 69% following trauma. Following elective hip replacement, patients did have anemia and impaired iron homeostasis without a significant change in inflammatory biomarkers, erythropoietin and vitamin D status. Vitamin D status did correlate with systemic inflammation, iron dysfunction, and persistent injury-associated anemia following severe blunt trauma. Further research is needed to determine whether supplementation with vitamin D in the trauma population could improve the persistent injury-associated anemia. Level III Prospective study, Prognostic
