Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent all over the world and dietary intakes of vitamin D are very low in China. In this study we aimed to determine whether vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients aged over 50 y. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations were measured in a cross-sectional sample of 270 T2DM patients aged over 50 y from Zhejiang.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to examine the anti-tumor effects of a compound called WT on mice with liver cancer and understand its immunological mechanisms.
- WT was administered to the mice for 10 days, after which the tumor growth was measured, and various tests were conducted to evaluate immune cell activity and tumor cell apoptosis.
- Results showed that WT significantly reduced tumor growth and enhanced immune responses, leading to increased apoptosis in the cancer cells.
