The book opens with a survey by Dr. Motron Cowan of
biotin-responsive metabolic disorders of children. A group of
Japanese researchers then present their latest data on the complex
interactions between vitamin D and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in
bone calcification. Dr. Maxine Briggs reviews the prolific
published information relating vitramin C to infectious diseases
and presents the results of an 8 year study into the prophylactic
value of high-dose ascorbic acid (AA) and the common cold.
Professor Kristoffersen and Dr. Rolschau review the effects of
vitamin supplements during pregnancy and intrauterine growth.
Possible protective effects of vitamin A and other retinoids
against cancer are discussed by Dr. Jill Blunck, while Dr. Sue
Tonkin describes her results on the interaction between oral
contraceptives and riboflavin. Finally, the possible prevention of
neural tube defects by vitamin supplements by Professor Laurence.
It is hoped that this collection of papers on the frontiers of
vitamin research will be of wide interest to medical and scientific
workers interested in the exciting and controversial used and
functions of vitamins.
