Vitamin D and calcium metabolism in horses in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Science at Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences (IVABS), Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
The physiology of vitamin D in horses has not been studied in great depth. Few studies on vitamin D metabolites (25OHD2, 25OHD3, and 1,25(OH)2D) and their relationship to other serum analytes exist. In addition, some studies suggest that equine vitamin D

An Australian first, this study examined normal reference ranges for 99mTc‐pertechnetate thyroid uptake. Through a retrospective and prospective analysis, this study found a new reference range of 0.4%–2.4%. The findings suggest that locally derived reference values may differ from historical data and highlight the importance of region‐specific ...

Serum parathyroid hormone levels and renal handling of phosphorus in patients with chronic renal disease [PDF]
In eight patients with advanced renal insufficiency (inulin clearance 1.4-9.1 ml/min), concentrations of serum calcium (S[Ca]) and phosphorus (S[P]) were maintained normal (S[Ca] > 9.0 mg/100 ml, (S[P] < 3.5 mg/100 ml) for at least 20 consecutive days ...
