Role of vitamin D in the association between pre-stroke sleep quality and poststroke depression and anxiety
ConclusionDecreased serum vitamin D levels at admission are associated with a high risk for PSD and PSA in patients with poor pre-stroke sleep quality during the early stages of AIS.

Investigation of the Relationship Between Breath Retention Time and Blood Parameters in Stroke Patients
Conclusion: Partial oxygen and carbon dioxide pressures and blood elements in the blood affect the breath holding time. People with high blood storage capacity and carbon dioxide and oxygen capacity can hold their breath longer. As a result, we think that the higher the hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the blood, the longer the breath holding time can increase.

Blood Biomarkers as Predictors of Long ‐Term Mortality in COPD
Conclusion: high CRP and neutrophils as well as low eosinophils are predictive of poor COPD prognosis. They also add significant value to prediction models of mortality in COPD. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Intrauterine endotoxin-induced impairs pulmonary vascular function and right ventricular performance in infant rats and improvement with early vitamin D therapy
High pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), proximal pulmonary artery (PA) impedance, and right ventricular (RV) afterload due to remodeling contribute to the pathogenesis and severity of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Intra-amniotic exposure to endotoxin (ETX) causes sustained PH and high mortality in rat pups at birth, which are associated with impaired vascular growth and RV hypertrophy in survivors. Treatment of ETX-exposed pups with antenatal vitamin D (vit D) improves survival and lung growth, but the effects of ETX exposure on RV-PA coupling in the neonatal lung are unknown. We hypothesized that intrauterine ETX impairs...
