Is hypovitaminosis D a consequence rather than cause of disease?
Chalmers and colleagues have shown that vitamin D deficiency is common in bronchiectasis and correlates with markers of disease severity. The authors comment that although the study has identified a strong association, this does not demonstrate causality, but the results justify a randomised controlled trial of vitamin D therapy to determine if supplementation can improve outcomes. They mention...
متن کاملImpaired insulin clearance as a cause rather than a consequence of insulin resistance
Impaired insulin sensitivity and reduced b-cell function have been regarded as the two major physiological defects in type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is generally accepted that the initial defect in this disease is insulin resistance, which is typically elicited by overeating and decreased physical activity, both of which are tightly linked with obesity. b-Cells then compensate for insulin resista...
متن کاملProlonged Fasting Identifies Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Dysfunction as Consequence Rather Than Cause of Human Insulin Resistance
OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance have been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, but it is debated whether this is a primary factor in the pathogenesis of the disease. To test the concept that mitochondrial dysfunction is secondary to the development of insulin resistance, we employed the unique model of prolonged fasting in humans. Prolonged fasting is a physiologic condit...
متن کاملDeprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue
Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...
متن کاملAuditory Deficit as a Consequence Rather than Endophenotype of Specific Language Impairment: Electrophysiological Evidence
BACKGROUND Are developmental language disorders caused by poor auditory discrimination? This is a popular theory, but behavioural evidence has been inconclusive. Here we studied children with specific language impairment, measuring the brain's electrophysiological response to sounds in a passive paradigm. We focused on the T-complex, an event-related peak that has different origins and developm...
