Hypervitaminosis D is one of the causes of severe hypercalcemia in children. Most cases of hypervitaminosis D during childhood are due to an excessive supplementation of vitamin D by physicians or parents.1,2 To prevent metabolic bone disease of prematurity (rickets of prematurity), formulas designed for premature infants ("premature formulas"), which contain more calcium and vitamin D than standard formulas, are given to premature infants in addition to human milk.1 In some cases, separate vitamin D products are also given to these infants, although requirements for vitamin D and calcium intake in the premature infant and the formerly premature infant have not been fully estimated.1

An investigation was undertaken in 10 villages (28 samples) of Basavan-Bagewadi taluka and 11 villages (38 samples) of Muddebihal taluka of Bijapur district to assess fluoride and other physicochemical parameters. And also to assess the clinical symptoms like dental and skeletal fluorosis, joint pains and gastrointestinal diseases and to find out the severity of the disease. A check list developed with the help of available literature and in consolation with nutritionists was used to record clinical symptoms. A sample survey was made after examination for both sexes between the age of 8-50 years at Basavan-Bagewadi and Muddebihal taluka. Fluoride content varies from 0.40-6.40 mg/L and 1.10-7.10 mg/L. However 12 samples were within the range, while 16 samples were above the permissible limits at Basavan-Bagewadi Taluka where as in Muddebihal taluka all the values are above the permissible limits of WHO respectively. The results show that, out of the 2992 examined 824 (25.89%) people have dental and skeletal fluorosis, 274 (9.15%) people have joint pains, 167 (5.58%) have gastrointestinal discomfort and excessive thirst at different stages in Basavan-Bagewadi taluka. Among 2696 examined, 812(29.49%) people had dental and skeletal fluorosis, 432 (16.18%) people had joint pains, 415 (15.54%) people had gastrointestinal discomfort and excessive thirst at Muddebihal taluka of Bijapur district.

Adverse effects of low vitamin D status and calcium intakes in pregnancy may be mediated through functional effects on the calcium metabolic system. Little explored in pregnancy, we aimed to examine the relative importance of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and calcium intake on parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations in healthy white-skinned pregnant women. This cross-sectional analysis included 142 participants (14 ± 2 weeks’ gestation) at baseline of a vitamin D intervention trial at 51.9 °N. Serum 25(OH)D, PTH, and albumin-corrected calcium were quantified biochemically. Total vitamin D and calcium intakes (diet and supplements) were estimated using a validated food frequency questionnaire. The mean ± SD vitamin D intake was 10.7 ± 5.2 μg/day. With a mean ± SD serum 25(OH)D of 54.9 ± 22.6 nmol/L, 44% of women were <50 nmol/L and 13% <30 nmol/L. Calcium intakes (mean ± SD) were 1182 ± 488 mg/day and 23% of participants consumed <800 mg/day. The mean ± SD serum albumin-adjusted calcium was 2.2 ± 0.1 mmol/L and geometric mean (95% CI) PTH was 9.2 (8.4, 10.2) pg/mL. PTH was inversely correlated with serum 25(OH)D (r = −0.311, p < 0.001), but not with calcium intake or serum calcium (r = −0.087 and 0.057, respectively, both p > 0.05). Analysis of variance showed that while serum 25(OH)D (dichotomised at 50 nmol/L) had a significant effect on PTH (p = 0.025), calcium intake (<800, 800–1000, ≥1000 mg/day) had no effect (p = 0.822). There was no 25(OH)D-calcium intake interaction effect on PTH (p = 0.941). In this group of white-skinned women with largely sufficient calcium intakes, serum 25(OH)D was important for maintaining normal PTH concentration.

One of the parameters that impact on fluoride sorption capacities of materials in water defluoridation is initial concentration. Water from various sources will have different fluoride concentrations; as such the employment of a particular media in defluoridation requires information on how the media will perform in different concentrations. Consequently, research was carried out to determine how initial fluoride concentrations in raw water affect capacity in defluoridation with bauxite, gypsum, magnesite and their composite, and to investigate the possibility of predicting loading capacity of their composite filter through initial fluoride concentration to optimize their application in defluoridation. The results showed that sorption capacities increased with increase in initial concentrations. However, higher starting concentrations resulted in larger residual fluoride concentrations; as such the benefit of large sorption capacities obtained was overshadowed. Polynomial relations of capacity (Cs, mg/g) and initial concentration (Co, mg/l), were obtained for bauxite and gypsum. Magnesite obtained a logarithmic relation for Cs and Co. A power relation was obtained between Cs and Co for their composite, Cs = 0.0328C1.20160. Approximation of capacities of this composite from initial fluoride concentrations was feasible. Water defluoridation has become important as a result of dental and skeletal fluorosis.
