Summary

SLE has been characterized by dysfunctional or decreased numbers of Treg cells because one of it function is to prevent autoimmunity. Vitamin D has already known to increase the number and function of Treg by enhancing their differentiation and expansion. This study aims to investigate the relationship between SLE severity in pediatric patients and vitamin D levels through modulation of Treg cells. This is a cross-sectional study of all children aged 7-18 years old who sought care for SLE at Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang between March 2024 until December 2024. 25(OH)D level was obtained by ELISA, Treg cell percentage was obtained by flow cytometry, and patient severity was measured by SLEDAI score.
