Methods: Thirty-five healthy female students were conveniently selected to participate in the study. None of the subjects were taking any supplements. The FFQ was validated against intakes from a three-day diet food record report (FR). Results: Positive correlations were observed of daily vitamin D (r = 0.82, p –8, 9, p < 0.676 and 43 mg/d (95% CI: 20, 65, p < 0.01). Conclusions: The FFQ used in this study shows promising validation evidence to be used in the future for assessing vitamin D and calcium intakes in female students.展开更多

It not only exhibits a major physiological function to regulate the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus, but also relates to the prevention and treatment of a variety of diseases such as lung diseases, cancers, diabetes, tuberculosis, lupus erythematosus, autoimmune diseases and liver damage. In this paper, the latest research progresses of the physiological function of vitamin D were summarized and discussed, aiming at providing the solid basis for utilization and application of vitamin D.展开更多

METHOD: 50 cases of osseous arthritis were divided randomly into two groups, the Shu Feng Huo Luo Pian group (the experimental group), including 30 cases (aged 63.5 +/- 4 years), treated with 2 such pills, p.o., bid; and the control group, including 19 cases (aged 63 +/- 5 years), treated with Sulindac 0.2 g, p.o., bid. The two groups were all supplemented by medication of calcium Caltrate D 0.6 g, p.o., qd. The above-mentioned medications were administered for 2 courses, 2 weeks constituting a course. RESULT: The total effective rate of the experimental group evaluated by the doctors was 83.3%, and that evaluated by the patients was 90%, with mild side effects. CONCLUSION: Shu Feng Huo Luo Pian is an effective Chinese patent drug for treating osseous arthritis, with less and mild side effects.展开更多
