RESUMEN
Vitamin D deficiency is widespread in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). From 2016 to 2018, prophylactic doses of vitamin D were prescribed for the patients of the Russian cystic fibrosis Center in accordance with the National cystic fibrosis consensus and they were informed about the role of vitamin D deficiency. The aim of the study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the frequency of deficiency and insufficiency of vitamin D in children with CF of different ages in Moscow region in 2016 and 2018. Material and methods. The study involved 115 patients with CF at the age of 0-18 in 2016 and 211 children of the same age in 2018. All children underwent determination of 25(OH)D in blood serum by ELISA. Results and discussion. The frequency of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency [25(OH)D level <30 ng/ml] in CF patients in 2016 was 64.3%, and in 2018 - 48.7%. Among children of 0-3 years normal serum 25(OH)D levels (>30 ng/ml) were registered in 62.5% in 2016 and in 62.2% in 2018, in children of 4-11 years - 28.8% in 2016 and 58.1% in 2018, among adolescents (11-18 years) - 11.8 and 30.2%, respectively. Conclusion. Comparative analysis showed a positive dynamics in reducing the proportion of CF patients with vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency against the background of continuous use of prophylactic doses of cholecalciferol and educational work for the period from 2016 to 2018. However, in a significant proportion of patients (48.7%), vitamin D level did not reach the norm in 2018 that requires the correction of preventive doses and increase in patient compliance.

Cystic fibrosis (CF; OMIM #219700) is a common autosomal recessive disease. The spectrum and frequency of CFTR mutations vary significantly in different populations and ethnic groups. A genetic epidemiological study was conducted in the indigenous ethnic group of people known as the Karachais. They live in the Republic of Karachay-Cherkessia, which lies in the northwest of Russia's North Caucasus region. Karachai's are Turkic-speaking and consist of 194 thousand people (approximately 40% of the population of the Republic). Molecular genetic analysis was performed in 10 unrelated Karachai families with CF patients from three districts in the Republic. A high frequency of W1282X mutation was found (18 of 20 mutant alleles): eight patients were homozygous for the W1282X mutation, and two were compound heterozygous (the second alleles were R1066C and R709X). Analysis for 13 common CF mutations in the sample of 142 healthy Karachais identified two 1677delTA and two W1282X mutation carriers. Thus, the most common CFTR mutation, F508del, was not detected among the CF patients or in healthy Karachais. The most frequent mutation among Karachai patients is W1282X (90%). Its frequency in healthy Karachais is approximately 0.007. Haplotype analysis using the CFTR intragene DNA markers IVS1CA, IVS6aGATT, IVS8CA and IVS17bCA showed that the origins of the W1282X mutation in Karachay-Cherkessia and the Eastern European part of Russia are different.
