Cut-off point vitamin D intake based ROC curve was 2.7 µg/day. Patients with severe dengue average vitamin D intake of 1.10 times less than not severe dengue. The average vitamin D intake lower 1 µg/day with a BMI ³ 18.75 kg/m2, chronic disease, and less exposed to the morning sun effect on severe dengue (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.32 to 0.71).
