Vitamin D and COVID-19: comparative analysis with other respiratory infections and impact of comorbidities.
Germs
September 2024
Pharm, PhD, Faculty of Pharmacy, Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy, No. 6 Traian Vuia street, Bucharest, 020956, Romania.
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has promoted an intensive investigation into the pathophysiological mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection, risk factors, and its impact on disease severity. Vitamin D has generated significant attention for its potential role in viral prevention and immune defense due to its pleiotropic functions, including immunomodulation and antimicrobial effects. This study aimed to assess serum 25(OH)D3 levels in patients with COVID-19 compared to those with other viral respiratory infections and to evaluate associations of vitamin D levels with symptomatology, clinical characteristics, presence of comorbidities and laboratory investigation.

Cardiovascular Department, Xiyuan Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, China.
Background: Poor nutritional status may affect outcomes after coronary revascularization, but the association between nutritional status and outcomes in patients undergoing coronary revascularization has not been fully evaluated. This study was based on the MIMIC-IV database to analyze the impact of baseline nutritional status on poor outcomes in patients with coronary revascularization.
Methods: Patients with coronary revascularization were screened from the MIMIC-IV database.

Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality worldwide, with coronary artery disease (CAD) being the primary contributor. Periodontitis, a common non-communicable disease, has been associated with an increased risk of CVD. Previous studies have suggested a link between the severity of periodontitis and the degree of coronary artery obstruction.

January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Department of Neurology, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Türkiye.
Introduction: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a frequently encountered neurological illness that has no effective treatment and imposes an enormous socioeconomic burden. Autophagy is essential for the maintenance of healthy cellular physiology, cell viability, and defense against pathogenic conditions. However, there is no study investigating the possible role of autophagy-related proteins (ATGs) in RLS patients.
