The Effect of Vitamin D 3 Supplementation on Hepcidin, Iron, and IL-6 Responses after a 100 km Ultra-Marathon. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17082962. [PMID: 32344650 PMCID: PMC7215841 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17082962] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2020] [Revised: 04/20/2020] [Accepted: 04/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Deficiencies in iron and vitamin D are frequently observed in athletes. Therefore, we examined whether different baseline vitamin D3 levels have any impact on post-exercise serum hepcidin, IL-6 and iron responses in ultra-marathon runners. In this randomized control trial, the subjects (20 male, amateur runners, mean age 40.75 ± 7.15 years) were divided into two groups: experimental (VD) and control (CON). The VD group received vitamin D3 (10,000 UI/day) and the CON group received a placebo for two weeks before the run. Venous blood samples were collected on three occasions-before the run, after the 100 km ultra-marathon and 12 h after the run-to measure iron metabolism indicators, hepcidin, and IL-6 concentration. After two weeks of supplementation, the intervention group demonstrated a higher level of serum 25(OH)D than the CON group (27.82 ± 5.8 ng/mL vs. 20.41 ± 4.67 ng/mL; p < 0.05). There were no differences between the groups before and after the run in the circulating hepcidin and IL-6 levels. The decrease in iron concentration immediately after the 100-km ultra-marathon was smaller in the VD group than CON (p < 0.05). These data show that various vitamin D3 status can affect the post-exercise metabolism of serum iron.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the 1960s, the International Labour Organization passed a convention under which all countries with national shipping were obliged to create a 24-h telemedicine center for ships. In accordance with the convention, Telemedical Assistance Service centers were to provide permanent access to medical advice given by qualified doctors and to create an international platform for the exchange of information and experience. In Poland, the Telemedical Maritime Assistance Service (TMAS) was established in 2012, and its duties in a 24-h system are carried out by doctors from the University Center of Maritime and Tropical Medicine (UCMTM) in Gdynia. The aim of this work was to determine the reasons for medical officers reporting for help from the TMAS doctor on duty and to create a database of the most common diagnoses and actions undertaken, and in particular evacuation. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the presented work, the authors analyzed TMAS telephony and e-mail advice provided by doctors of the UCMTM in Gdynia, in the period from October 2012 to the end of 2018. RESULTS In the 6-year period, UCMTM doctors provided TMAS advice 225 times, recommending evacuation in over 20% of these cases. Infectious diseases were the most common cause of contact in the entire period under analysis - 61 cases were recorded, accounting for as many as 27% of all applications. Injuries were the second most frequent reason for seeking help from TMAS, and 20% of TMAS applications (44 cases) were related to trauma. CONCLUSIONS The obtained data show that TMAS doctors face various medical problems; therefore, providing proper medical assistance to patients requires a close multidisciplinary cooperation between medical officers, TMAS doctors and emergency services.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is described as a relatively common complication of exercise. In clinical practice the diagnosis of AKI is based on serum creatinine, the level of which is dependent not only on glomerular filtration rate but also on muscle mass and injury. Therefore, the diagnosis of AKI is overestimated after physical exercise. The aim of this study was to determine changes in uremic toxins: creatinine, urea, uric acid, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and urinary makers of AKI: albumin, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 and cystatin-C (uCyst-C) after long runs. Sixteen runners, mean age 36.7 ± 8.2 years, (2 women, 14 men) participating in 10- and 100-km races were studied. Blood and urine were taken before and after the races to assess markers of AKI. A statistically significant increase in creatinine, urea, uric acid, SDMA and all studied urinary AKI markers was observed. TMAO and ADMA levels did not change. The changes in studied markers seem to be a physiological reaction, because they were observed almost in every runner. The diagnosis of kidney failure after exercise is challenging. The most valuable novel markers which can help in post-exercise AKI diagnosis are uCyst-C and uNGAL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases are still the most common cause of death from natural causes among seafarers. The aim of the study was to determine which of the cardiovascular risk factors listed in the current recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology occur among seafarers. MATERIALS AND METHODS The paper is a review of literature from PubMed Database. RESULTS Based on conducted analysis of over 31 papers high prevalence of classic and other cardiovascular risk factors among seafarers was proven. The most common risk factors among off-shore workers are overweight and obesity (over 64%); moreover, these factors occur more often among seafarers than in the general popula- tion. Also hypertension, smoking, type 2 diabetes and unfavourable lipid profile were present more often in this occupational group. In the analysed studies attention was also paid to factors often overlooked in risk assess- ment such as mental and inflammatory illnesses, unfavourable working conditions and psychological burden. CONCLUSIONS Seafarers have a higher cardiovascular risk because, among other things, the prevalence of "old and new" risk factors among them is higher than in general population.

Abstract
Physical activity leads to changes in water and electrolyte homeostasis and to enhanced purine metabolism. The typical abnormalities observed after exercise are hyperkaliemia, hyper- or hyponatremia and hyperuricemia. The possible explanations of hyperuricemia are: increased metabolism and decreased elimination of uric acid. Changes in uric acid excretion are commonly observed in disturbances of sodium and water homeostasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in electrolytes and uric acid excretion during a very long period of exercise. Twenty subjects with a mean age of 40.75±7.15 years took part in a 100 km run. The route of the run was based on the university stadium track. All subjects were experienced amateur runners, with a mean time of regular running of 6.11±7.19 years. Blood was collected before the start, after every 25 km and 12 hours after the run. The levels of electrolytes, creatinine, uric acid, cortisol, aldosterone, creatine kinase, C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 were measured. Creatinine clearance, urinary potassium-to-sodium ratio, fractional excretion of electrolytes and uric acid were calculated. Seventeen runners completed the study. Significant increases in sodium (from 141.65±1.90 to 144.29±3.65mmol/l), potassium (from 4.53±0.34 to 5.03±0.42mmol/l), creatinine (from 0.88±0.11 to 1.10±0.20mg/dl) and uric acid (from 5.15±0.87 to 5.94±1.50 mg/dl) were observed after 100 km (p less than 0.05). Other significant changes during the study were noted in fractional excretions of sodium (from 0.86±0.29 to 0.33±0.13%) and potassium (from 6.66±2.79 to 18.90±10.01%), probably reflecting the decrease in renal blood flow (RBF) and increase in renal tubule reabsorption. The fractional excretion of uric acid slightly increased but without statistical significance from 5.34±1.51 to 6.09±2.34%. The results of our study showed that during very long but not very intensive exercise there is no change in uric acid excretion, although at the same time profound changes in electrolyte excretion are found. Both hyperuricemia and hyperuricosuria may be harmful, therefore it seems logical that the best way to avoid those abnormalities is to maintain fractional uric acid excretion.

Abstract
Mast cells play an important role in both, the innate and adaptive immunity, however, clonal proliferation of abnormal mast cells in various organs leads to mastocytosis. A skin variant of the disease, cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) is the most frequent form of mastocytosis in children. HtrA proteases are modulators of important cellular processes, including cell signaling and apoptosis, and are related to development of several pathologies. The above and the observation that mast cells constitutively release the HtrA1 protein, prompted us to investigate a possible involvement of the HtrA proteins in pediatric CM. Levels of the serum autoantibodies (IgG) against the recombinant HtrA proteins (HtrA1-4) in children with CM (n=36) and in healthy controls (n=62) were assayed. Anti-HtrA IgGs were detected using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western-blotting. In the CM sera, levels of the anti-HtrA1 and anti-HtrA3 autoantibodies were significantly increased when compared to the control group, while the HtrA protein levels were comparable. No significant differences in the anti-HtrA2 IgG level were found; for the anti-HtrA4 IgGs lower levels in CM group were revealed. In healthy children, the IgG levels against the HtrA1, -3 and -4 increased significantly with the age of children; no significant changes were observed for the anti-HtrA2 IgG. Our results suggest involvement of the HtrA1 and HtrA3 proteins in pediatric CM; involvement of the HtrA4 protein is possible but needs to be investigated further. In healthy children, the autoantibody levels against HtrA1, -3 and -4, but not against HtrA2, increase with age.

Abstract
Introduction. The immunosuppression used after transplantation (Tx) is associated with an increased risk of opportunistic infections. In Europe, parasitic infections after Tx are much less common than viral, bacterial and fungal ones. However, diseases caused by parasites are very common in tropical countries. In the last years the number of travellers with immunosuppression visiting tropical countries has increased. Methods. We performed a literature review to evaluate a risk of parasitic infections after Tx in Europe. Results. There is a real risk of parasitic infection in patients after Tx travelling to tropical countries. Malaria, leishmaniasis, strongyloidiasis and schistosomiasis are the most dangerous and relatively common. Although the incidence of these tropical infections after Tx has not increased, the course of disease could be fatal. There are also some cosmopolitan parasitic infections dangerous for patients after Tx. The greatest threat in Europe is toxoplasmosis, especially in heart and bone marrow recipients. The most severe manifestations of toxoplasmosis are myocarditis, encephalitis and disseminated disease. Diarrhoea is one of the most common symptoms of parasitic infection. In Europe the most prevalent pathogens causing diarrhoea are Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium. Conclusions. Solid organ and bone marrow transplantations, blood transfusions and immunosuppressive treatment are associated with a small but real risk of parasitic infections in European citizens. In patients with severe parasitic infection, i.e., those with lung or brain involvement or a disseminated disease, the progression is very rapid and the prognosis is bad. Establishing a diagnosis before the patient's death is challenging.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications in patients with end-stage renal disease requiring dialytic therapy are frequent and account for approximately 40% of all deaths in these patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmia in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with respect to the changes in left ventricular structure and function. To determine characteristics of arrhythmia in patients on PD for chronic renal failure, 30 patients (18 male and 12 female; aged 54.1±13.8 years) underwent twice (interval of 20±4.1 months) ambulatory 24 hour Holter ECG monitoring. At the same time all the patients were analyzed by echocardiography and pulsed Doppler echocardiography to estimate cardiac structure and function. Ventricular arrhythmias were seen in 9 patients (30%) during the first examination and in 13 patients (43.3%) on the second. Ventricular arrhythmias were observed only in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Supraventricular arrhythmias were seen in 12 (40%) and 17 (56.7%) patients. The majority of these patients also had LVH, with 11/12 (91.7%) patients at the first examination and 15/17 (88.2%) at the second respectively. We conclude that the incidence of arrhythmia is primarily dependent on the presence of LVH in PD patients. It appears that peritoneal dialysis does not provoke or aggravate arrhythmia.

Abstract
The results of the Automated Peritoneal Dialysis (APD) therapy in adult patients in the Department of Nephrology in Gdansk during the years 1995–98 are presented. Seventeen patients (8-M, 9-F) aged 25–86 years (mean age 55.3 years), including 7 diabetics, were treated with different forms of APD. The most common indication for APD therapy was patients' loss of ability to perform Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis due to progressive blindness, leg amputation related to diabetic foot complications or cerebrovascular episodes (8 pts). The cumulative therapy period was 231.5 patient-months. During the observation 4 patients died, 1 received kidney transplant and 12 were still treated with APD at the end of the study. No patient was transferred to long-term hemodialysis. The peritonitis rate in the APD group was 1/57.5 patient-months. Most patients reached adequacy targets, the mean Kt/V value was 1.97 (range 1.17 - 2.36). To achieve this, 12–19 litres of dialysate were used per day (mean 14.6 L/d). There were significant differences between CCPD and NPD groups with respect to dialysis adequacy, body weight and dialysis fluid volume. We conclude that APD may be used with success in patients in whom continuation of CAPD or HD therapy is very difficult due to its complications or comorbid conditions.

Abstract
For a number of years chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been listed in the group of lifestyle diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension. It is estimated that in Poland more than 4 million people may suffer from various stages of CKD. Chronic kidney disease may also be a consequence of all the other civilization diseases. At the same time it is worth noting that nephrological problems are increasingly being taken into account in modern medical certification. The aim of this work is, among other things, to improve safe access to the labor for patients with kidney diseases. In the legislation existing in our country since 2014 it is stated that chronic renal failure is a potential health contraindication to driving. Also in the annex to the Regulation of the Minister of Health dated 9 December 2015 on health conditions required for seafarers to work on a seagoing ship, it is said that ICD-10 codes (International Classification of Diseases) corresponding to acute and chronic renal failure (N17-N19) should be taken into account when qualifying employees to work at sea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The renoprotective effects of the direct renin inhibitor, aliskiren, in renal transplant recipients have been supposed, but not finally proven. We performed an exploratory double-blind, losartan controlled, cross-over study to evaluate the influence of aliskiren, direct renin inhibitor, on albuminuria and other surrogate markers of kidney injury in patients after renal transplantation. The safety of this therapy was also evaluated. METHOD 16 of 18 patients (12 M, 4 F), 48.3 ± 9.0 years, 57.7 ± 9.1 months after kidney transplantation, with hypertension and stable serum creatinine 1.4 ± 0.08 mg/dl without proteinuria, completed the protocol. Each patient underwent two 8-week treatment periods (one with 150 mg of aliskiren, and one with 50 mg of losartan) in random order, allowing an 8-week placebo washout between them. RESULTS There were no differences in albuminuria, transforming growth factor β-1 and 15-F2t-isoprostanes urine excretion between aliskiren and losartan. Creatinine serum level, eGFR, 24 h systolic and 24 h diastolic blood pressure were stable through the study. There were no differences in haemoglobin and potassium serum concentration between studied drugs. CONCLUSION Aliskiren decreases albuminuria in renal transplant recipients with clinically minimal side effects. The effect does not differ from that of losartan.

Abstract
Infections, high temperature and many of the toxic substances can cause kidney damage. Acute kidney injury is a well known complication of some work-related diseases, e.g., lead intoxication. Chronic kidney disease can also be caused by some occupational factors. Three work-related nephropathies, in which causal connection with work has been proved, are discussed in this article. There are different risk factors of nephrolithiasis, lead nephropathy and silica nephropathy, but each of them can cause chronic kidney disease. Prevention of these nephropaties seems to be relatively simple. The principles of protection from the toxic effects of heavy metals and silica dust are very specific. The most important prevention of kidney stones is correct fluid intake. In addition to providing adequate quantities of drinking water, it is also important to educate exposed workers and assure enough rest breaks at work.
