Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) lead to shock and death. Patient in Yogyakarta mostly aged 1 - 12 years old with severe dengue. A low vitamin D intake is assumed to be the cause of severe dengue. This assumption needs to be proved by analyzing the effect of vitamin D intake and severity of DHF. Study design was a case control study. Research on children’s wards and medical record installation in hospital. Cases were children with DHF grade III and IV, the control of DHF grade I & II. Data vitamin D intake was obtained by FFQ. Outer variables: BMI, age, chronic diseases and intensity morning sun exposure. Analysis by t-test and logistic regression. The results showed 60 cases and 60 controls without matching. 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). Sufficient vitamin D intake is recommended to avoid the dengue severity. Chronic diseases and more weight should be a concern of medical personnel as early warning shock occurrence.
