Rational sequence of tests for pancreatic function.

مقایسه تست های تشخیصی الاستاز 1 مدفوعی و تریپسین مدفوع در بیماران فیبروز کیستیک با گروه شاهد

Background & Aims: Pancreatic Elastase–1 (EL-1) is a human specific protease enzyme, produced and secreted by pancreatic acinar cells. This enzyme is stable and is not affected by prescriptions of supplement pancreatic enzymes, and it has good connection with pancreatic stimulation function tests. The Purpose of this study is to compare fecal pancreatic elastase–1 concentration in patients wi...

Impact of Magnesium Deficiency on Pancreatic β-Cell Function in Type 2 Diabetic Nigerians

Objective: Pancreatic b-cell dysfunction is described to be present at the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and progressively deteriorated with disease duration. However, its progression is variable and potentially influenced by several factors. The Magnesium (Mg) deficiency mediates insulin resistance but reports regarding its role in pancreatic β-cell dysfunction are scarce and co...

Convex Surface Visualization Using Rational Bi- cubic Function

The rational cubic function with three parameters has been extended to rational bi-cubic function to visualize the shape of regular convex surface data. The rational bi-cubic function involves six parameters in each rectangular patch. Data dependent constraints are derived on four of these parameters to visualize the shape of convex surface data while other two are free to refine the shape of s...

Testing for Stochastic Non- Linearity in the Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis

The Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis implies that consumption follows a martingale. However, most empirical tests have rejected the hypothesis. Those empirical tests are based on linear models. If the data generating process is non-linear, conventional tests may not assess some of the randomness properly. As a result, inference based on conventional tests of linear models can b...
