Calcific aortic stenosis: known facts and promising studies
Calcific aortic stenosis is a common heart disease and the most common cause of surgical interventions on heart valves in old age. Eliminated course, nonspecific clinical symptoms, and late patients seeking surgical help, lead to high mortality, reaching

Quantitative Assessment of Calcium Profile in Whole Saliva From Smokers and Non-Smokers with Chronic Generalized Periodontitis [PDF]
Background: Measures of in vivo calcium status are important in understanding the mineralization capacity as it is an essential mineral component of both teeth and bone; and also play a vital role in the lipid profile and hormonal balance.

The Influence of Strontium on Bone Tissue Metabolism and Its Application in Osteoporosis Treatment
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease characterized by low bone mass caused by increased bone turnover and impaired bone microarchitecture. In treatment, we use antiresorptive or anabolic drugs, which usually have a unidirectional effect, i.e., they inhibit ...

Diarrhea causes monovalent and divalent ion losses that can influence clinical outcome. Unlike the losses of monovalent ions, such as Na+, K+, Cl−, and HCO3−, which are generally large in quantity (osmoles) and therefore determine the severity of ...

Increased prevalence of overweight and obesity in children with X-linked hypophosphatemia
Background/aim: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare disease characterized by low phosphate levels. Scientific evidence points to a link between h ypophosphatemia and obesity in general population. The aim of our longitudinal observational study was

Glucose metabolism and oscillatory behavior of pancreatic islets [PDF]
A variety of oscillations are observed in pancreatic islets.We establish a model, incorporating two oscillatory systems of different time scales: One is the well-known bursting model in pancreatic beta-cells and the other is the glucose-insulin feedback model which considers direct and indirect feedback of secreted insulin.

Data-driven Stochastic Model for Quantifying the Interplay Between Amyloid-beta and Calcium Levels in Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
The abnormal aggregation of extracellular amyloid-$\beta$ (A\beta) in senile plaques resulting in calcium (Ca^{+2}) dyshomeostasis is one of the primary symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Significant research efforts have been devoted in the past to better understand the underlying molecular mechanisms driving A\beta deposition and Ca^{+2 ...

The Effects of Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Fluoride, and Lead on Bone Tissue
Bones are metabolically active organs. Their reconstruction is crucial for the proper functioning of the skeletal system during bone growth and remodeling, fracture healing, and maintaining calcium–phosphorus homeostasis.
