Showing results for "vitamin d asthma"
Despite considerable advances, the exact mechanism whereby UVR can lead to changes in immune responses is not entirely clear at present, and no...
This intervention study found no increase in fracture risk among 2,322 adults who took a controlled, high-dose retinol supplement for as long as 16 years.
Gene transfer to a donor cornea ex vivo can modulate corneal graft failure in experimental animal models. We compared a lentiviral vector (LV) carrying...
Our team aims to better understand how the immune response to immune challenges, such as viral infections can influence the risk of developing asthma or autoimmune disease.
To determine the contribution of RSV to the subsequent development of severe asthma in different subgroups of children at risk of severe RSV disease.
A balanced approach toward sun exposure and protection is needed by young people. Excessive sun exposure increases their risk for skin cancers such as melanoma, whereas some exposure is necessary for vitamin D and healthy bones. We have developed a new iOS smartphone app-Sun Safe-through a co-design process, which aims to support healthy and balanced decision-making by young teenagers (aged 12-13 years).
While UV radiation is a skin carcinogen, this should not obscure the growing evidence that sunlight has significant health benefits, including impacts on cardiovascular and metabolic health.
Like all of us, Dr Shelley Gorman grew up with the 'slip, slop, slap' message. And for good reason, Australia is one of the sunniest countries in the world.
This report provides new insight into the functional specialization within the broad network of dendritic cells that are responsible for skin immunosurveillance
When combined with physical activity, low-dose UVR may more effectively limit adiposity and modulate metabolic and immune pathways in iBAT
