Journal ArticleDOI
Tertiary Hyperparathyroidism and Apparent Cure of Vitamin-D-Resistant Rickets after Removal of an Ossifying Mesenchymal Tumor of the Pharynx
TL;DR: The temporal relation between tumor removal and apparent cure of VDRR suggests that the tumor was secreting a vitamin D antagonist, and the histologic findings suggested a similar cell type in this case and three similar ones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calcium and osteoporosis.
TL;DR: Calculations based on bone calcium turnover indicate that the recommended dietary allowance for calcium is adequate for boys and men, but is insufficient for adolescent girls, and that calcium intake by women is probably too low to slow bone calcium retention to its programmed minimum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of bone calcium-binding sites regulates plasma calcium: an hypothesis.
Felix Bronner,Wilfred D. Stein +1 more
TL;DR: A new model of calcium (Ca) homeostasis is proposed, based on the kinetics of restoration of the plasma Ca level following positive or negative Ca loads in animals of different endocrine status, which accounts for the prolongation of the response time to Ca load in animals deprived of PTH, calcitonin, or vitamin D.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and Regulation of Calcium Metabolism in Healthy Girls
Felix Bronner,Steven A. Abrams +1 more
TL;DR: The constancy of the serum calcium in the face of a large intestinal calcium input and the modest way in which excretion overcame the calcium load in this population of girls point to the importance of the exchangeable bone calcium compartment, in dynamic equilibrium with the bone mineral, as the site at which most of the load is taken up.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrient bioavailability, with special reference to calcium.
TL;DR: It will require major research programs before the term "bioavailability" of a nutrient can become a quantitative concept useful for clinical, nutritional or managerial evaluation and counseling.

A simple efficient liquid scintillator for counting aqueous solutions in a liquid scintillation counter
TL;DR: A modification of the naphthalene-dioxane-PPO liquid scintillator has been described which will allow up to 3.0 ml of an aqueous solution to be counted as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rickets resistant to vitamin D therapy.
TL;DR: This study deals with the following specific questions concerning such cases: is the abnormal condition of the bone due to true rickets?
