Association between Fok1 and TaqI polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor gene with the severity of stenosis and calcification in carotid bulb in patients with ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: There may be a biological association between the FokI VDR gene and carotid bulb calcification.PMID:35091316 | DOI:10.1016/j.jocn.2022.01.009

E-061 Moyamoya syndrome patients have low vitamin D
ConclusionOur data indicate a large proportion of moyamoya syndrome patients are deficient in vitamin D, which we hypothesize contributes to pathological severity. Future studies incorporating vitamin D supplementation may act as a novel intervention for this patient population that currently has few treatment options.Disclosures J. Fraser: None. L. Whitnel: None. J. Roberts: None.

Low vitamin D levels affect left ventricular wall thickness in severe aortic stenosis
Conclusion Among patients with severe degenerative aortic stenosis, vitamin D deficiency is common. We found a significant association between left ventricular wall thickness and vitamin D levels, suggesting a potential role of this hormone in modulating hypertrophic remodelling in these patients. However, future larger studies are certainly needed to confirm our findings and to define their prognostic implications.

Intra-plaque calcium and its relation with the progression of carotid atheromatous disease
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that a higher content of Ca confers greater stability against the progression of carotid AD and, eventually, its ability to generate symptomatology.PMID:35583455 | DOI:10.23736/S0392-9590.22.04872-6
