| [determinants of preventive health behavior of the swiss population. results of the somipops study]. | in the context of the first swiss national health survey preventive health behaviour was tested in 3419 swiss citizens aged over 20 years. a health behaviour index including favourable health attitudes and good utilization of preventive health services was correlated with different social indicators. age, sex and a good self-rated health were the most important factors associated with a high preventive health behaviour score. education showed a less strong but also significant influence on posit ... | 2013 | 3811601 |

| respiratory failure and multiple fractures in vitamin d-dependent rickets. | a 20-month-old boy presented with multiple fractures and respiratory failure. he was found to have vitamin d-dependent rickets. the rickets did not improve with phosphate, calcium and calciferol. the rickets healed, however, with large doses of 1-alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol. the presentation is unusual and the response to therapy suggests metabolic heterogeneity in vitamin d-dependent rickets. | 2014 | 3993381 |
