Association Between Serum Vitamin D Levels and Physical Outcomes of Patients Who Underwent Rehabilitation Following Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS Lower serum vitamin D levels and more advanced age may be associated with worse functional outcomes in first-ever ischemic stroke patients.PMID:37248685 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.940115

Normocalcaemic, vitamin D sufficient hyperparathyroidism ‐ high prevalence and low morbidity in the general population A long‐term follow‐up study, the WHO MONICA project, Gothenburg, Sweden
ConclusionsThis small random population study showed that nHPT was common, 11% at follow‐up. Only one individual developed mild hypercalcaemia in 13 years. Previous S‐PTH was predictive of nHPT and hypertension was prevalent, but no increase in hard end points was seen over a 17‐year period.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Editorial: Telomeres and Epigenetics in Endocrinology
This study was hypothesis-driven; the genetic variants were selected for being previously and substantially genotyped. The big sample size and the rich panel of other biomarkers allowed the authors to conduct much more detailed analyses on this topic. The third article by Provenzi et al. proposed their perspectives on the role of telomeres in premature birth and discussed the potential implications for early adversity and care in the neonatal intensive care unit (Pavanello et al.). Indeed, the speculation of telomeres in aging begins in the premature aging syndrome. It is thus interesting to examine if telomeres also play...

Evaluation of the relationship between serum apelin levels and vitamin D and mean platelet volume in diabetic patients.
CONCLUSION: We failed to show an association between vitamin D, apelin and MPV higher volumes of which may have a role in cardiovascular complications related to diabetes by increasing platelet activation. PMID: 25156130 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Osteoporosis and Sarcopenia Increase Frailty Syndrome in the Elderly
Conclusions World population is aging and the increase in life expectancy is often unhealthy. In particular, musculoskeletal aging, which leads to sarcopenia and osteoporosis, has several causes such as changes in body composition, inflammation, and hormonal imbalance. Sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and more frequently, sarcopenic obesity are commonly associated with aging and frequently closely linked each other, often leading to the development of a frailty syndrome. Frailty syndrome favors an increased risk of loss function in daily activities, for cardiovascular diseases, cancers, falls, and mortality. As the number of eld...

Associations of Plasma 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D and Dietary Vitamin D Intake with Insulin Resistance in Healthy Japanese Women
J Nutr Sci Vitaminol (Tokyo). 2023;69(1):46-52. doi: 10.3177/jnsv.69.46.ABSTRACTWe investigated the associations of plasma 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration and the dietary intake of vitamin D with insulin resistance in Japanese women. Study participants were 406 Japanese women attended a health examination. They were not taking hormones or medications for diabetes and had no history of cancer, ischemic heart disease, or stroke. Information regarding medical history and lifestyle factors was obtained by a self-administered questionnaire, while hours of sun exposure were determined through interviews. Dietary int...
