Vitamin D supplementation linked to improved cardiometabolic health

A latest systematic review and meta-analysis conducted by scientists from institutions across China and the United States has uncovered promising insights into how vitamin D supplementation can significantly impact cardiometabolic health. The study, which was published in Engineering, has implications for tailored therapeutic strategies targeting cardiovascular diseases and related risks. The comprehensive review analyzed 99 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving a total of 17 656 participants. The analysis revealed that vitamin D supplementation, with a median dose of 3320 International Units (IU) per day, was associated with favorable effects on various cardiometabolic risk factors, including reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin A1C, and fasting blood insulin. Significantly, the researchers discovered that the benefits of vitamin D supplementation were most pronounced in specific groups: non-Western populations, individuals with baseline 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels below 15.0 ng·mL−1, those with a body mass index (BMI) below 30 ...

Dizzy, Heart Racing After You Stand? New Treatment Proposed

By Dennis Thompson HealthDay ReporterWEDNESDAY, Aug. 6, 2025 (HealthDay News) — Some people find that when they stand, their hearts tend to race and they get dizzy and lightheaded. This is due to a rare condition called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS – and doctors think they’ve found a potential treatment. An established heart failure drug called ivabradine appears to provide lasting relief for people suffering from POTS, according to results from a pilot study. The drug kept POTS patients’ hearts from racing and significantly improved other symptoms while not affecting their overall blood pressure, researchers recently reported in the Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology. “These data suggest that the inappropriate increase in heart rate is exactly why patients feel sick, and that reducing the heart rate with a medication that does not affect blood pressure can make a difference in the quality of life,” senior researcher Dr. Antonio ...

Kelun Botai’s market value exceeds 100 billion

Today (August 5), Kelun Biotech’s market capitalization exceeded HK$100 billion for the first time, becoming a highly anticipated company in the innovative pharmaceutical sector. This is not only a milestone for the company itself, but also a significant milestone in the development of innovative pharmaceutical companies in China. The rise in Kelun Botai’s stock price can be described as an inspirational story of ups and downs. Since its listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in July 2023, its share price and market capitalization have experienced a turbulent journey. Initially, despite the promise of a robust pipeline of innovative drugs, the company suffered a significant blow when two early-stage ADC programs in collaboration with Merck were terminated from clinical development, sending its share price into a brief downturn. However, the uncertainties surrounding innovative drug development haven’t hindered Kelun Biotech’s progress. In June 2024, the company, like a rising star, announced ...

【EXPERT Q&A】Why is it essential to implement the Unique Device Identification (UDI) system for medical devices?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: The Unique Device Identification (UDI) for medical devices serves as their “digital ID card,” and its application is a core tool for enhancing industry management efficiency and safeguarding public safety in medical device usage. The specific reasons are as follows: I. Full Lifecycle Traceability: Precise Problem Identification and Risk Reduction 1. Rapid Recall of Problematic Devices: UDI connects the entire chain of production, distribution, and usage through a unique code, enabling the localization of problematic batches or individual devices within hours. For instance, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) completed a global recall of faulty heart stents in two days using UDI, a process that traditionally took weeks, significantly reducing patient risks. 2. Adverse Event Monitoring and Analysis: By linking UDI with patient data, the usage effectiveness of devices can be tracked, and correlations between adverse reactions and specific models or batches can be analyzed, providing data-driven support ...

Australian study finds lasting relief for back pain through cognitive functional therapy

Australian research has shown that a personalized program that helps people with chronic, disabling low back pain better understand their condition and take charge of its management produces large benefits that are sustained over three years. In the RESTORE trial, conducted at centres in Sydney and Perth, a seven-session program of cognitive functional therapy (CFT) delivered by specially trained physiotherapists significantly reduced people’s back pain and improved their function, compared with usual care. Data just published in medical journal The Lancet Rheumatology show these improvements were largely maintained over three years of follow-up. The persistent effect of CFT over time is a new and very important finding, says lead author Professor Mark Hancock, Professor of Physiotherapy at Macquarie University. “This the first large, high-quality study investigating the long-term impact of CFT, and shows that it’s effective and remains effective. In fact, our previous systematic review shows there are relatively few ...

New Drug May Fight a Deadly Bone Marrow Disorder

By Dennis Thompson HealthDay ReporterTUESDAY, Aug. 5, 2025 (HealthDay News) — A recently approved leukemia pill also might help some patients diagnosed with a deadly bone marrow disorder, a new pilot study says. About 3 in 5 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) responded to treatment with olutasidenib (Rezlidhia), which the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved in 2022 for patients with acute myeloid leukemia, researchers reported recently in the journal Blood Advances. What’s more, about two-thirds of patients who previously required regular blood transfusions for the condition no longer needed them, results show. “We saw really quite remarkable outcomes in a very high-risk MDS population, not only in response rates, but also in blood count improvement, long duration of response and improved overall survival,” lead researcher Dr. Justin Watts, chief of the leukemia section at the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, said in a news release. The ...
