A Phase 1 Study of Oral Vitamin D<sub>3</sub> in Boys and Young Men With X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy.

Van Haren. Keith P KP; Cunanan. Kristen K; Awani. Avni A; Gu. Meng M; Peña. Dalia D; Chromik. L...

This study tested two ways of giving vitamin D pills to boys and young men with a rare genetic disease (X‑linked adrenoleukodystrophy) that can cause brain damage. Both fixed‑dose and weight‑adjusted dosing raised blood vitamin D to the desired range, and the weight‑adjusted method caused fewer lab‑test warnings. Brain antioxidant (glutathione) levels went up, but the work was only in a small, disease‑specific group.

The large-scale cultivation of VERO cells in micro-carrier culture for virus vaccine production. Preliminary results for killed poliovirus vaccine.

Montagnon. B J BJ; Fanget. B B; Nicolas. A J AJ

Scientists showed that a lab-grown cell line called VERO can be used instead of monkey kidneys to make large amounts of killed polio vaccine, producing lots of cells and virus without losing yield, but this is a manufacturing method, not something you can apply to personal health or DIY experiments.

Association of EEG Background and Neurodevelopmental Outcome in Neonates With Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy Receiving Hypothermia.

Glass. Hannah C HC; Numis. Adam L AL; Comstock. Bryan A BA; Gonzalez. Fernando F FF; Mietzsch. Ulrik...

In newborns who suffered oxygen loss to the brain and were cooled to protect them, the pattern of brain waves (EEG) recorded during treatment predicts how well they will develop by age two. Babies with very abnormal EEG patterns were far more likely to die or have serious developmental problems.

Prognostic role of renal replacement therapy among hospitalized patients with heart failure in the Brazilian national public health system.

Coy-Canguçu. Andréa A; Antunes-Correa. Lígia M LM; Mazzali. Marilda M; Abrão. Pa...

In Brazil’s public hospitals, about 12% of people admitted for acute heart failure die in the hospital, and those who need kidney‑support treatments (dialysis) are even more likely to die and cost more to treat.
