This book examines the aspects of vitamin D deficiency in elderly people living in nursing homes and patients with type 2 diabetes, with an emphasis on mortality, morbidity, and mental health. It explores whether low vitamin D levels are associated with increased risks of these health issues and evaluates the effectiveness of outdoor activities in increasing vitamin D levels during summer. The research is based on four studies, including a cluster randomized intervention trial. The findings suggest that low vitamin D levels are linked to higher mortality and poorer mental health outcomes, and that outdoor activity can improve vitamin D levels and mental health.

This dissertation by Magnus Kentson explores the multifaceted nature of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), focusing on fatigue and peripheral muscle dysfunction. It examines the role of vitamin D status, muscle metabolism, and systemic inflammation in COPD patients, highlighting the disease's impact beyond lung function. The work emphasizes the importance of understanding systemic effects and comorbidities associated with COPD, such as muscle mass reduction and nutritional deficiencies. The research aims to contribute to more individualized and targeted treatment approaches for COPD, addressing symptoms like fatigue and their effects on quality of life. The intended audience includes medical professionals and researchers in respiratory medicine.

Quatrième de couverture : "La Vitamine D est l'objet d'une véritable effervescence depuis quelques années parmi les médecins et les biologistes. Il suffit de lancer une quête informatique pour constater l'augmentation exponentielle du nombre d'articles publiés chaque semaine sur le sujet. Le propre de cet ouvrage -coordonné justement par un médecin et un biologiste- est bien d'aborder ces deux aspects. D'une part ils ont veillé à présenter les aspects pratiques utiles à l'exercice médical, en s'appuyant sur les études et méta-analyses disponibles, ainsi que sur les Recommandations des Sociétés nationales et internationales. D'autre part, ils ont exposé les acquisitions fondamentales les plus récentes, et le lecteur constatera qu'il y en a plusieurs. Enfin à la frontière de la clinique et de la biologie, plusieurs questions se trouvent posées sur les effets extra-osseux de la vitamine D, et là aussi, la participation des auteurs francophones les plus habilités permettra d'accéder à l'état de l'art actuel. Voici donc, sous l'égide du GRIO (Groupe de Recherche et d'Information sur les Ostéoporoses), les grandes lignes qui ont présidé à la rédaction de cet ouvrage : des pistes claires pour la pratique médicale, mais sans simplification excessive, et en fondant le raisonnement sur les données les plus actuelles de la Science."
