Evaluation of the Role of Vitamin D in Reducing the Severity and Duration of Rotavirus Infection in Iraqi Children

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on the clinical outcomes including duration and severity of rotavirus-induced gastroenteritis in children that will be admitted to the hospital. And to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of vitamin D on the pediatrics with rotavirus gastroenteritis by measuring inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocytes ratio (PLR), lymphocytes to monocytes ratio (LMR) and mean platelet volume MPV.
