Twenty-three calcium stone formers with idiopathic hypercalciuria were entered into an open study to examine the effects of flurbiprofen (Froben) on urinary calcium excretion. Five patients were withdrawn because of side effects. A statistically significant reduction in urinary calcium excretion was
Four cases of infantile idiopathic hypercalciuria with high congenital myopia and atypical macular coloboma are discussed; two of them are brother and sister. The eye examination shows bilateral congenital myopia of more than 10 diopters in every case. In the fundus examination, there is a bilateral
OBJECTIVE
Vitamin D at serum 25(OH)D concentrations above 100 nmol/L is associated with disease remission in patients with IBD, suggesting targeted dosing might be anti-inflammatory. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness, safety and predictors of a 12-week regimen of vitamin D supplementation
1alpha, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3], the biologically active form of vitamin D, is an important hormone that is critically required for the maintenance of mineral homeostasis and structural integrity of bones. 1,25-(OH)2D3 accomplishes this by facilitating calcium absorption from the gut
The elimination of calcium, phosphorus, hydroxyproline and nitrogen was studied in 127 patients with inflammatory joint diseases and )6 healthy controls for 4 days. On the third day, 186 mg of calcium was administered intravenously. Provoked hypercalciuria tests were made in 35 males, 116 females
Objective: Inflammation plays a leading role in the pathogenesis of nephrolithiasis. The association of the dietary inflammatory index (DII) with urinary lithogenic factors is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the relation of DII to
Sarcoidosis is frequently attended by hypercalciuria and sometimes by hypercalcaemia. The type of hypercalciuria and its relationships with disease extension and activity have rarely been investigated. In order to clarify these issues we undertook an investigation by a calcium absorption test in 39
Vitamin D3 is the precursor of the steroid hormone calcitriol (1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3), a potent agonist of the transcription factor vitamin D receptor (VDR). Calcitriol has received large appreciation due to the impact not only on mineral homeostasis, but also on metabolic diseases,
BACKGROUND
Vitamin D insufficiency [serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentration less than 20 ng/ml] is prevalent among children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and its treatment has not been studied.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of three vitamin D
Silicone usage for cosmetic enhancement is common, although it is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Granulomatous inflammation leading to hypercalcemia is a rare complication. We present a case of non-parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitriol-mediated hypercalcemia in OBJECTIVE
Nephrolithiasis is one of the most prevalent diseases of the urinary system. Approximately 80% of human kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate (CaOx), and hypercalciuria is one of the most common metabolic disorders. Emerging evidence indicates that autophagy and inflammatory
OBJECTIVE
Calcium oxalate renal stones (RS) and hyperoxaluria are common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The absence of intestinal oxalate degrading bacteria, Oxalobacter formigenes, may cause hyperoxaluria in IBD. The aim of the present study was to examine: (i) the colonization
Background: Sarcoidosis and Sjögren's syndrome (SS) are chronic multi-system inflammatory diseases of unknown origin that most commonly attack the salivary glands. Both of the diseases have vague and nonspecific symptoms, causing
Sarcoidosis of bone has been observed in 29 patients for up to 43 years. It was present in the hands and/or feet in 26 patients, in the nasal bone in three and once each in the hard palate and temporal bones. There were three types of bone lesion: (a) lytic in 25 patients; rounded cortical or
Vitamin D is the critical hormone for intestinal absorption of calcium. Optimal calcium absorption is important for proper mineralization of bone in the prevention of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures, among other important functions. Diseases associated with gut inflammation, such as Crohn's
