Calcitriol/calcifediol ratio: An indicator of vitamin D hydroxylation efficiency?
BACKGROUND Calcifediol (25D) availability is crucial for calcitriol (1,25D) synthesis, but regulation of vitamin D hydroxylases is majorly responsible for 1,25D synthesis. The net efficiency of vitamin D hydroxylases might be informative. We assume that the ratio between calcitriol and calcifediol (25D/1,25D) serum concentrations could suggest the vitamin D hydroxylation efficiency. METHODS W...
متن کاملVitamin D Food Fortification is an Effective Approach for Improving Vitamin D Status; A Systematic Review
Background: Low vitamin D (vit D) serum levels have been linked to various diseases such as multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. Maintenance of optimal vit D level should be supported by foods and supplements. Limited food sources of vit D made researchers focus on food fortification in recent years. Methods: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials reporting th...
متن کاملM . D . Variations in Pulp / Tooth Area Ratio as an Indicator of Age
This paper details a method for age determination of adults from single rooted teeth. The sample consisted of 100 Italian white Caucasian patients (46 men, 54 women) aged between 18 and 72 years. The single rooted maxillary right canine was utilized in this preliminary study. Pulp/root ration, tooth length, pulp/tooth length ratio, pulp/tooth area and pulp/root width ratios at three different l...
متن کاملEffect of vitamin D status on pharmacological treatment efficiency
At least 80% of the whole Polish population, including prepubertal children and adolescents, adults and seniors, are vitamin D deficient, defined as 25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L. 83% of Polish newborns start their lives at the state of vitamin D deficiency because 78% of their mothers are also deficient. It was observed that treating patient vitamin D deficiency to vitamin D status serum 25(OH)D) 75-100...
متن کاملUrinary guanidinoacetate-guanidinosuccinate ratio: an indicator of kidney dysfunction.
Five formerly unidentified peaks in the column chromatogram of urinary compounds giving the Sakaguchi reaction appear to be proteins or polypeptides containing arginine. If these substances, salts, and creatine are first removed, then guanidinoacetate (GAA), guanidinosuccinate (GSA), and creatine are readily measured in urine. This technique was applied to the urine of 17 healthy men and 10 hea...
