Objectives: Vitamin D plays an important role in the release of the placenta and implantation, and low levels are a risk factor for pre-eclampsia. Studies have also shown that symptomatic treatment of vitamin D3 deficiency can effectively reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia. In this study, vitamin D3 supplementation was performed on the risk of pre-eclampsia to observe its effect.
Methods: From January 2016 to December 2018, 450 women with maternal treatment and delivery in our hospital underwent an open-label randomized study. The pregnant women were divided into low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose groups. Compare the incidence of pre-eclampsia and the dose effect of vitamin D levels.
Results: In the maternal and perinatal periods of the 450 maternal women, the 25[OH] index of the three groups of pregnant women was significantly increased, while the high-dose increase index was more obvious. The relative risk reduction rate was significantly lower. Compared with the low-dose and middle-dose groups, the high-dose group had a significantly lower incidence of pre-eclampsia, while the IUGR index was lower, and other obstetric indicators were comparable.
Conclusion: Vitamin D supplementation can effectively reduce the incidence of pre-eclampsia, while reducing the IUGR index, which has important value and significance in its clinical application.

Correct treatment of chronic osteomyelitis depends on proper identification of the bone-infecting microorganism, but it is difficult identify the specific etiology in previously treated patients and in those with implants. Small colony variants auxotrophyc for menadione had been related with false-negative results in culture of patient with chronic osteomyelitis, but menadione supplementation can increase bone culture performance. The purpose was to evaluate the effect of menadione supplementation on isolates in bone cultures, in a cohort of patients with osteomyelitis, Medellín- Colombia.

Pharmaceutical supplementation and dietary fortification are the most common approaches to reducing vitamin deficits. To improve the health and nutritional value of crops, agronomic biofortification necessitates the direct application of nutrients. Producers using micronutrient fertilizers to increase the fortification of crops are essential to the success of biofortification.

Background: This study aims to investigate the association between vitamin D levels and the risk of severe acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).
Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study with 636 COPD patients admitted for exacerbations between January 2021 and December 2022. Patients were categorized based on serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels: severe deficiency (<10 ng/mL), deficiency (10-20 ng/mL), insufficiency (20-30 ng/mL), or sufficiency (>30 ng/mL).

Background Vitamin B12 deficiency, or cobalamin deficiency, is common among populations with low consumption of animal-based products, mainly in India, due to religious and socioeconomic factors, which significantly increase the deficiency rate. The condition has been characterized by a wide range of clinical and hematological symptoms, mainly affecting the blood and nervous system. This study aims to assess the clinical and hematological characteristics of patients with vitamin B12 deficiency and assess the therapeutic response to supplementation with vitamin B12.
