TL;DR: Vitamin D supplementation was safe and it protected against acute respiratory tract infection overall and patients who were very vitamin D deficient and those not receiving bolus doses experienced the most benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Latitude is significantly associated with the prevalence of multiple sclerosis: a meta-analysis
TL;DR: The most comprehensive review of MS prevalence to date has confirmed a statistically significant positive association between MS prevalence and latitude globally, and the persistence of a positive gradient in Europe after adjustment for HLA-DRB1 allele frequencies strongly supports a role for environmental factors which vary with latitude.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with lower relapse risk in multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: This study investigated whether higher levels of serum 25‐hydroxyvitamin D (25‐OH‐D) were associated with a lower risk of relapses in people with MS.
Journal ArticleDOI
On-line sample preconcentration in capillary electrophoresis: Fundamentals and applications
TL;DR: This review provides a comprehensive table listing the applications of on-line preconcentration in capillary electrophoresis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Vitamin D supplementation was safe, and it protected against ARIs overall, and incorporation of additional IPD from ongoing trials in the field has the potential to increase statistical power for analyses of secondary outcomes.
