Results In total, 75 of182 general practice patientswith SMI and150 of 313 such patientswithout SMI attended the interview.SMIwas associatedwith: raised 10-year CHDrisk scores (OR1⁄41.8,95%CI 1.0^3.1); high-density-lipoprotein (HDL)cholesterollevels51.0mmol/l (OR1⁄44.0, 95% CI1.5^10.7); raised cholesterol/HDLcholesterolratios (OR1⁄41.8,95% CI 1.0^3.2); diabetesmellitus (OR1⁄43.8,95% CI1.1^13.3)...

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSdThe study population, derived from the National Health Insurance Research Database released by the Taiwan National Health Research Institutes during 1998–2009, comprised 77,611 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus. We designed a prospective study consisting of randomly selected hypoglycemic type 2 diabetic patients and matched type 2 diabetic patien...

the purpose of the present work is to establish a one-to-one correspondence between the family of interval type-2 fuzzy reflexive/tolerance approximation spaces and the family of interval type-2 fuzzy closure spaces.

A 73-year-old man was diagnosed with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) after the incidental discovery of abnormalities in a blood test performed for the control of diabetesmellitus. The patient was asymptomatic. The spleen was palpable at 6 cm below the left costal margin. Hemoglobin was 10.9 g/dL; white blood cell count was 13.2 3 10/L, with a leukoerythroblastic blood picture and 2%blasts, platelet...

The deposition of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) is closely correlated with type II diabetesmellitus (T2DM). hIAPPmisfolding, as a significant causative factor of T2DM, can lead to the failure of islet transplant. Therefore, preventing the aggregation of hIAPP is one of the most vital factors to treat T2DM. Mononuclear Ru complexes have recently been proved to inhibit the aggregation o...

RESULTSdInfusion of exendin-(9–39) resulted in marginal deterioration of the 2-h plasma glucose after meal intake in RYGBP subjects (saline 78.46 15.1 mg/dL compared with exendin(9–39) 116.5 6 22.3 mg/dL; P , 0.001). Furthermore, glucose response to meal intake was similarly enlarged in the two study groups (percent change in the area under the curve of glucose exendin-(9–39)-infusion versus sa...

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSdA randomized controlled trial was performed in T2DM patients newly referred to the Diabetes Care System (DCS)West-Friesland, a managedcare system in the Netherlands. The intervention group (n = 131) received a six-step CVD risk communication. Control subjects (n = 130) received standard managed care. The primary outcome measure was appropriateness of risk perception ...

RESULTSdThe HbA1c levels showed a quadratic association with sleep duration; namely, a shorter or longer sleep duration was associated with a higher level compared with a sleep duration of 6.5–7.4 h (P for quadratic trend ,0.001). This association remained significant after adjusting for potential confounders, including the total energy intake and depressive symptoms. Furthermore, additional ad...
