“Also, go easy on how much protein you eat, since large amounts can block calcium absorption.”

“Their roots will penetrate cracks in the rock and produce an organic acid that dissolves calcium carbonate.”

“There is plenty of highly absorbable calcium in green leafy vegetables, beans, enriched flour, and fortified juices.”

“Calcareous nannoplankton, although stimulated toward diversification, was obviously less efficient in calcification.”

“An early phenotypic alteration in these mice is a cardiomyopathy with calcification and altered mitochondrial appearance.”

“Charophytes are prone to calcification and have left an abundant fossil record up to the Cretaceous, and perhaps beyond.”

“Even the arsenic mine at Shimen, Hunan Province, is still the source of minor amounts of good realgar, orpiment, and calcite.”

“The calcite produces white streaks in the lapis and too much calcite will lower the value of the stone.”

“The siltstones are composed of angular quartz and rare feldspar, set in a finer matrix that locally contains some calcite.”

“Pharmaceutical drug forms of activated vitamin D include calcitriol, doxercalciferol, and calcipotriene.”

“All vit D metabolites bind the VDRs, but most of the biological effects are likely mediated by calcitriol due to its greater receptor affinity.”

“It is further converted in the kidneys to calcitriol, the powerful active form of the vitamin that acts as a hormone.”

“Physical therapy is directed at preventing atrophy and contractures, and is particularly necessary in patients with calcinosis and muscle involvement.”

“Vinpocetine has successfully reversed tumoral calcinosis in hemodialysis patients with renal failure.”

“The first clinical differential diagnoses were cutaneous SLE, nephrogenous dermatopathy, calciphylaxis, and calcinosis.”

“The mainstay of therapy is hydration and calciuresis with IV normal saline and furosemide and intravenous bisphosphonate therapy.”
