Retracted: Effect of immobilization on vitamin D status and bone mass in chronically hospitalized disabled stroke patients
Following the appraisal of new information, the editorial board of Age and Ageing have retracted this paper from the scientific record. In February 2019, Age and Ageing published an expression of concern online regarding this paper, noting multiple issues with the data presented in the manuscript. Further information has now come to light in that, at the time of data collection for the reported work, neither the hospital nor the academic institution to which the lead author was affiliated, and where the study participants were recruited, had an institutional review board to provide ethical approval for the work reported.

The Status and Research Progress on Vitamin D Deficiency and Atrial Fibrillation
Abstract Atrial fibrillation is a common type of arrhythmia and is an important cause of stroke and heart failure. vitamin D is an emerging risk factor of AF, and is implicated in the pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation. It has been established that this vitamin is extensively involved in the regulation of both the renin angiotensin aldosterone system and the immune system. Epidemiological studies have not yet reached a consensus on the possible association between vitamin D deficiency and atrial fibrillation. Better research designs and methods can further clarify the relationship between the two.

Interventions for preventing bone disease in kidney transplant recipients.
CONCLUSIONS: Bisphosphonate therapy may reduce fracture and bone pain after kidney transplantation, however low certainty in the evidence indicates it is possible that treatment may make little or no difference. It is uncertain whether bisphosphonate therapy or other bone treatments prevent other skeletal complications after kidney transplantation, including spinal deformity or avascular bone necrosis. The effects of bone treatment for children and adolescents after kidney transplantation are very uncertain. PMID: 31637698 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Effects of Zoledronate on Cancer, Cardiac Events, and Mortality in Osteopenic Older Women
ABSTRACTWe recently showed that zoledronate prevented fractures in older women with osteopenia (hipT‐scores between −1.0 and −2.5). In addition to fewer fractures, this study also suggested that women randomized to zoledronate had fewer vascular events, a lower incidence of cancer, and a trend to lower mortality. The present analysis provides a more detailed presentation of the adverse event data from that study, a 6‐year, double‐blind trial of 2000 women aged>65  years recruited using electoral rolls. They were randomly assigned to receive four infusions of either zoledronate 5 mg or normal saline at 18...

Depressed serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D levels increases hospital stay and alters glucose homeostasis in first ever ischemic stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: 25(OH)D levels are associated with glucose homeostasis ,25(OH) D contributes to increase the length of hospital stay. Low serum 25-OHD level is an independent predictor for hospital stay in first-ever ischemic stroke, Vitamin D deficiency did not predict functional outcome at 3 months.

A New Study Suggests Vegetarians and Vegans Are at Higher Risk of Stroke. But Don ’t Reach for That Steak Just Yet
Vegetarians and vegans are likely to be concerned by the results of a new study with a surprising finding: those following meat-free diets, which are typically associated with better cardiovascular health, may actually have a higher risk of stroke than those who eat meat. But it’s too soon to run out and order a steak. The paper, published in the BMJ, found only a small increase in the risk of stroke, while confirming findings in other studies that vegetarians and vegans may have a lower risk of heart disease than meat-eaters. “It’s important to emphasize that we’ve looked at two outcomes here,R...

25-Hydroxyvitamin D Level, Vitamin D Intake, and Risk of Stroke: A Dose –Response Meta-Analysis
A growing number of studies have shown that vitamin D are related to the risk of stroke, however, the dose –response association between vitamin D and the risk of stroke is still unclear. Accordingly, we conducted a dose–response meta-analysis to evaluate the relationships between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level, vitamin D intake, and the risk of stroke by summarizing cohort studies.

Vitamin D and cardiovascular disorders
In conclusion, preclinical data generated a plausible hypothesis of a link between vitamin D status and extra-skeletal events, including cardiovascular endpoints. Whether the vitamin D endocrine system is redundant for the human vascular system or whether the RCTs have not been optimally designed to answer the research question is thus not yet settled.

Women's Health Initiative clinical trials: potential interactive effect of calcium and vitamin D supplementation with hormonal therapy on cardiovascular disease
Conclusions: CaD did not consistently modify the effect of CEE therapy or CEE + MPA therapy on CVD events. However, the increased risk of stroke due to CEE therapy appears to be mitigated by CaD supplementation. In contrast, CaD supplementation did not influence the risk of stroke due to CEE + MPA.
