Calcium and vitamin-D (Ca/VitD) deficiency is a major risk factor for osteoporosis. It may also contribute to the compromised bone healing frequently observed in osteoporotic patients, since calcium is essential for fracture-callus mineralization. Additi
The Government's 'Healthy Start' programme aims to prevent deficiency by providing multivitamins (A, C and D) free to families on income support. Some Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) fund these vitamins beyond the scheme - in the case of our own CCG, this is for all children aged 6 ...

Forkhead box class O1 (FoxO1) is closely related to GDM; however, the role of vitamin D deficiency and the underlying pathogenesis of GDM has not been elucidated. Serum vitamin D level was detected using chemiluminescence immunoassay. FOXO1 expression was examined using Real-time polymerase chain ...
cells. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remain unknown (26). In another previous study, although vitamin D deficiency exacerbated pulmonary fibrosis and EMT (27), no significant associations between the two conditions could be found. Vitamin supplements have been found to delay the process...
Furthermore, vitamin E deficiency has been shown to result in infertility and fetal death in animals4,5. In contrast, sufficient uptake of vitamin E in human and animal diets leads to numerous benefits, such as a decreased risk of select cancers and atherosclerosis, a bolstering of the ...
