Newest firstMaintaining a quiescent uterus until labor is of utmost importance for a successful pregnancy and still represents the most challenging issue in clinical practice. Despite the existence of standard approaches (short-term use of tocolytic agents or preventive use of vaginal progesterone), whose efficacy is still controversial, several natural molecules have garnered attention in recent years as an effective therape…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background The human gut microbiome-endocannabinoidome axis is crucial for several homeostatic processes, including inflammation and energy metabolism, and is influenced by many endogenous and exogenous factors, such as dietary habits. Changes in the gut microbiome in response to seasonal variations were previously reported and tentatively attributed to shifts in dietary patterns. However, there is a need for long…
Leg disorders have become increasingly common in broilers, leading to lower meat quality and major economic losses. This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH-D3) on bone development by comparing growth performance, tibial parameters, Ca and P contents of tibial ash, bone development-related indicators' level, and cecal shor…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-specific multisystem disorder and a leading cause of maternal and perinatal mortality globally. Despite numerous studies highlighting the potential roles of gut microbiota, anandamide (AEA), and Vitamin D (VitD) in PE, none have established them as reliable biomarkers for predicting disease onset. Moreover, their interactions in late-stage pregnancy women remain poorly…
Depression and anxiety disorders, prevalent neuropsychiatric conditions that frequently coexist, limit psychosocial functioning and, consequently, the individual's quality of life. Since the pharmacological treatment of these disorders has several limitations, the search for effective and secure antidepressant and anxiolytic compounds is welcome. Vitamin D has been shown to exhibit neuroprotective, antidepressant,…
Open article record in new tab ↗Vitamin D insufficiency has been linked to multiple conditions including bone disease, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. Observational studies indicate lower healthcare costs and healthcare utilization with sufficient vitamin D levels. The secondary aims of our previously published pragmatic clinical trial of vitamin D3 supplementation were comparisons of healthcare costs and healt…
ImportanceVitamin D supplementation has been shown to reduce the incidence of acute respiratory infections in populations at risk. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of preventing viral infections in healthcare workers. ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the hypothesis that vitamin D3 supplementation at 5000 IU daily reduces influenza-like illness (ILI), including COVID-19, in healthcar…
Pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS), representing approximately 5% of all MS cases, affects the central nervous system during its ongoing development. POMS is most commonly diagnosed during adolescence but can occur in younger children as well. For pediatric patients with MS, it is critical to manage the full impact of the disease and monitor for any effects on school and social functioning. Disease manageme…
Open article record in new tab ↗Vitamin D deficiency is associated with poor mental health and dysmetabolism. Several metabolic abnormalities are associated with psychotic diseases, which can be compounded by atypical antipsychotics that induce weight gain and insulin resistance. These side-effects may be affected by vitamin D levels. The gut microbiota and endocannabinoidome (eCBome) are significant regulators of both metabolism and mental heal…
Background and objective: The aim of the present study was to establish a new differentiation protocol using cannabidiol (CBD) and vitamin D3 (Vit. D3) for a better and faster osteogenic differentiation of dental tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Materials and methods: MSCs were harvested from dental follicle (DFSCs), dental pulp (DPSCs), and apical papilla (APSCs) of an impacted third molar of a 17-ye…
Open article record in new tab ↗Despite the high incidence of osteoporosis, many patients at risk of fragility fractures may not initiate treatment due to concerns about side effects, or cost. We aimed to identify whether the patient population presenting with fragility fractures is receiving prophylactic treatment for osteoporosis within a single academic hospital in the southernmost region of the United States. This region is characterized by…
Open article record in new tab ↗Pharmacology of the lower urinary tract provides the basis for medical treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Therapy of LUTS addresses obstructive symptoms (frequently explained by increased prostate smooth muscle tone and prostate enlargement) in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and storage symptoms in patients with overactive bladder (OAB). Targets for medical treatment include G prote…
