Vitamin D Levels

Vitamin D is a lipid soluble vitamin involved primarily in calcium metabolism. Epidemiologic evidence indicates that lower circulating vitamin D levels are associated with a higher risk of ovarian cancer and that vitamin D supplementation is associated with decreased cancer mortality. A vast amount of research exists on the possible molecular mechanisms through which vitamin D affects cancer cell proliferation, cancer progression, angiogenesis, and inflammation. We conducted a systematic review of the literature on the effects of vitamin D on ovarian cancer cell.

Vessel Involvement

Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK) is a large-vessel vasculitis that targets the aorta and its major branches. Although extracranial vascular involvement is uniformly present in this disease, the frequency of intracranial involvement in TAK has not been well studied. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and imaging records of patients diagnosed with TAK at a single Canadian university medical centre to determine the prevalence of intracranial vascular involvement. Intracranial vascular and non-vascular findings were described, and a review of the literature was performed. Of 20 patients with TAK, 12 had vascular neuroimaging completed. Intracranial vascular lesions were identified in 4 patients (33.3% of those with imaging available, 20% of all patients). The frequency of intracranial vessel involvement in TAK may be more common than appreciated. Imaging of both the intra- and extra-cranial vessels should be considered in these young patients.
