Abstract:

Vitamin D deficiency is a prevalent problem worldwide and data suggest that maternal vitamin D deficiency is associated with adverse maternal and offspring non-skeletal outcomes. We performed a double-blind randomised controlled trial to establish the effect of high-dose (5000 IU) vitamin D supplementation on glucose metabolism measured by the 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin resistance on the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR). Additionally, we evaluated the vitamin D status of a multiethnic pregnant population and determined the predictive factors for vitamin D deficien

Abstract:

Vitamin D deficiency, indicated by the circulating metabolite 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], can lead to osteomalacia, increased fracture risk in the elderly, and may increase the risk of other medical conditions. However, optimal levels of 25(OH)D are uncertain, with some cross-sectional studies suggesting optimal levels of >75 nmol/L. This thesis assessed optimal levels of vitamin D and strategies for its supplementation. In a trial of high-dose vitamin D3 regimens in frail elderly, data suggest that 25(OH)D levels of 40 �� 50 nmol/L may be sufficient. In the same study, calcium intake appe

Atopic Dermatitis(AD)is recognized as one of the major worldwide health concerns.

Air pollutants, such as ozone (O3) and diesel exhaust particles, elicit oxidative stress in the lung. Antioxidants within the respiratory tract lining fluid (RTLF) protect the underlying tissue from oxidative injury.

The aim of this thesis was to investigate the airway responses to diesel exhaust and ozone exposure in healthy humans, with the emphasis on inflammatory and antioxidant responses.

Vitamin D is synthesised endogenously within the epidermal layer of the skin on exposure to ultraviolet B radiation (UVB).

Avoiding low vitamin D status (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D)) is accepted as important for bone health because the primary physiological function of vitamin D is to maintain calcium and pho

Background: Between 1961-1971 vitamin D deficiency was recognized as a public health issue in the UK, because of the lack of effective sunlight and the population mix [1, 2]. In recent years, health care professionals have cited evidence suggesting a re-emergence of the vitamin D deficiency linked to a number of health consequences as a concern [3-6]. Evidence from observational studies has linked low vitamin D status with impairment in glucose homeostasis and immune dysfunction [7-9].

In systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are defective and may present early signs of senescence. In a previous study we demonstrated as the treatment with hydroxychloroquine may influence the clonogenic potential of MSCs in a SLE animal model. Vitamin D may influence several aspects of the innate and adaptative immune response and low serum levels of vitamin D are common in SLE patients and were correlated to higher disease activity and severity. The aim of this study is to identify the effect of 25-OH vitamin D, on MSCs characteristics in New Zealand Black/Whi

Abstract:

Lower vitamin D status has been associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. As insulin resistance is present in people with type 2 diabetes and those with prediabetes, and Is a known risk factor for hypertension and CVD: improved insulin resistance has the potential to reduce the risk of CVD. The primary aim of this thesis was to examine the effect of vitamin D supplementation on CVD risk factors in those with prediabetes and a suboptimal vitamin D status. A double blind placebo, controlled, randomised controlled trial, was carried out using 3,0001U/day vitamin D3 for six

<p>HASTY, JENNIFER. EFFECTS OF VITAMIN E SUPPLEMENTATION ON PORK QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS OF HAMPSHIRE CROSSES AND BERKSHIRE CROSSES. (Under the direction of Eric van Heugten). An experiment was conducted to investigate whether pork quality characteristics could be improved by feeding supra-nutritional levels of vitamin E (as a-tocopheryl acetate) to Berkshire x PIC and Hampshire x PIC finishing pigs. Diets contained 0, 75, 150, 300 or 600 mg a-tocopheryl acetate/kg and were fed ad libitum for six weeks. Pigs were biopsied on 0, 21 and 42 d to evaluate potential pork quality. After the six-week

Findings were that caregivers considered all items on the Information Needs and Patient Care Needs subscales to be important but most of the unmet needs were from the Patient Care subscale. The needs less satisfied in relation to importance were (a) ways to improve patient appearance, (b) activities that will make patient feel purposeful, (c) information on how to give medications, (d) ways to reassure patient, (e) ways of coping with patient's diagnosis, (f) ways to dress patient comfortably, (g) ways to deal with patient's decreased energy, and (h) importance of not leaving patient alone.The

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to examine collegiate female swimmers' attitudes toward gender and coaching. The study also examined the coaching styles of male and females coaches and determined whether a difference between styles existed. A purposeful sample of 250 female swimmers from the Mid-American Conference (MAC) during the 2001-2002 swimming season participated in the study. Swimmers were required to have been coached by both female and male coaches in order to be eligible to participate. Addressing the purpose of this study, participants were asked to complete a 30-item questionnaire d

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to propose a best practice protocol for providing children living in India, ages six months to fifty nine months old, with maximally effective vitamin A supplementation every six months. Vitamin A supplements work as a prophylactic treatment to prevent the occurrence of ocular symptoms and reduce morbidity and mortality rates in children. The author first identifies the public health problem of vitamin A deficiency and discusses epidemiological trends of incidence and prevalence. Pertinent background information provides the history of supplementation in India. A b
