The Effects Of 24r, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 And 24s, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 On Phosphate Transport In Vivo, Yu Meng
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This research studied the effects of the two isomers of 24,25(OH)2D3 on phosphate absorption in vivo to increase our understanding of the effects of 24,25(OH)2D3 on phosphate transport in vivo, and its two isomers. The current work demonstrates that 24R,25(OH)2D3 is capable of decreasing phosphate absorption after a 1h injection in vivo and 24S,25(OH)2D3 can increase phosphate absorption after a 5h injection, but this stimulation disappears at time points after 5h.
Since 24,25(OH)2D3 is made in vitamin D-replete animals, the observation that 24R,25(OH)2D …

Vitamin D Levels And Risk Of Dyslipidemia Among Us Children With Diabetes And Obesity, Elsina E. Hagan
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Dyslipidemia is increasing among U.S. children, and the prevalence is highest among children with diabetes and obesity. Recently, vitamin D deficiency has been suggested as a possible dietary risk factor for dyslipidemia. Despite the high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency amongst children, virtually no studies have evaluated the association between vitamin D and dyslipidemia among children. We evaluated the vitamin D and dyslipidemia relationship among 240 children and adolescents aged 2 through 21 years who were outpatients of a pediatric endocrinology unit at a large tertiary care facility in Western Massachusetts from April 2008 to April 2010. Eligible children were …
