OBJECTIVE To investigate whether a short maximal sprint can provide another means to counter the rapid fall in glycemia associated with moderate-intensity exercise in individuals with type 1 diabetes and therefore decrease the risk of early postexercise hypoglycemia. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In the study, seven male subjects with type 1 diabetes injected their normal insulin dose and ate t...

Introduction: In postmenopausal women, metabolic responses to lipids during postprandial periods following combined exercise training are unknown. Objective: To examine the acute effects of resistance (RT) and concurrent (CT) on lipemia glycemia in women. Methods: This quasi-experimental, exposure response study, linked 27 women who were randomly divided into three groups evaluated for anthropo...

in both anterior choroidal artery territories that were compatible with acute ischemic stroke. On perfusion-weighted imaging, cerebral blood flow and volume were slightly increased ( fig. 1 a). There was no abnormality on the FLAIR images, nor was there any arterial occlusion visible on intracranial three-dimensional time-offlight MRI. However, glycemia was low at 2.06 mmol/l. The hypoglycemia ...

Diabetes constitutes an increasingly prevalent disease, dramatically associated with an enhanced mortality risk in the developed world. A high prevalence of diabetes has recently been described at Réunion Island, a French department located in the Indian Ocean. At the University of La Réunion, a laboratory course involving students was designed to teach them blood glucose measurements and to ex...

At the Glycemia Modeling Workshop meetings in November 2008 in Bethesda, Maryland, and in November 2009 in San Francisco, California, world experts in glycemia modeling concluded that existing simulation models should be compared and contrasted. The consensus was that the same evaluation and validation criteria should be used to better assess the state of the art, understand any inherent limita...

Diabetic patients have higher risk of urinary tract infection (UTI). In the present study, we investigated the impact of glycemic control in diabetic patients on UTI prevalence, type of strains, and their antimicrobial drugs susceptibility. This study was conducted on urine samples from 722 adult diabetic patients from which 252 (35%) samples were positive for uropathogens. Most UTI cases occur...
