Abnormal vitamin D metabolism in cirrhosis.
Vitamin D metabolism was investigated in 10 patients with cirrhosis. Mean plasma 25 hydroxycholecalciferol (25 OHD) centration in alcoholic cirrhosis was lower than in controls but the difference was not significant. In three patients restudied after the summer, plasma 25 OHD had risen. In contrast to the finding in normal subjects, the half-life of intravenously administered 3H cholecalciferol...
متن کاملAbnormal sulfate metabolism in vitamin D-deficient rats.
To explore the possibility that vitamin D status regulates sulfate homeostasis, plasma sulfate levels, renal sulfate excretion, and the expression of the renal Na-SO4 cotransporter were evaluated in vitamin D-deficient (D-D-) rats and in D-D- rats rendered normocalcemic by either vitamin D or calcium/lactose supplementation. D-D- rats had significantly lower plasma sulfate levels than control a...

متن کاملVitamin D Deficiency in Referred Patients to the Fardis Central Laboratory in Karaj City
Background: Vitamin D is an important factor for bone growth. Vitamin D deficiency reduces absorption of calcium and causes rickets and also increases bone fragility. In addition, Vitamin D deficiency has exoskeleton side effects, such as increased risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, infections and autoimmune diseases. In most cases, vitamin D intake is not enough in dietary food supplies....
متن کاملFracture prevention with vitamin D supplementation: considering the inconsistent results
BACKGROUND A meta-analysis found that high dose vitamin D, different from low dose, decreased fracture risk by 23% for any nonvertebral fracture and by 26% for hip fracture. Unfortunately, however, this effect was not confirmed by recent trials. The aim of this paper is to explore if this inconsistency can be attributed to publication bias or heterogeneity of the trials. METHODS The meta-anal...
