Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as glucose intolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. It is associated with an increased risk of pregnancy complications. Susceptibility to GDM is partly determined by genetics and linked with type 1 diabetes-associated high risk HLA class II genes. However, the evidence for this relationship is still highly controversial. In thi...

OBJECTIVE This study clarified characteristics of interferon-associated type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The study compared 12 patients with interferon-associated type 1 diabetes with 128 patients with type 1A diabetes with respect to clinical characteristics, and with 10 patients without diabetes despite interferon therapy and 136 normal controls with respect to HLA allele distri...

We present magnitude, color, redshift and number density distributions of 1302 galaxies in the supercluster S[173+014+0082]. Our aim is to identify substructures study their maps. The visual magnitude distribution suggests that dynamically unstable. found 3 region having mean 0.083, 0.085 0.090. An empirical relation be-tween observed.

The TCOF1 gene product, treacle, responsible for the craniofacial disorder Treacher Collins syndrome, has been predicted to be a member of a class of nucleolar phosphoproteins based on its primary amino acid sequence. Treacle is a low complexity protein with ten repeating units of acidic and basic residues, each of which contains a large number of putative casein kinase 2 and protein kinase C p...

Objective. To assess the current clinical evidence of Banxiaxiexin decoction for diabetic gastroparesis (DGP). Methods. Electronic databases were searched until December 2012. No language limitations were applied. We included RCTs using Banxiaxiexin decoction/modified Banxiaxiexin decoction for DGP. No restriction for the control group except acupuncture. Applying clinical effective rate as the...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between the polymorphism of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1 and the susceptibility and repellency of drug use combined with HIV infection in Chinese. METHODS A total of 213 unrelated healthy people, 41 HIV-infected drug users, 24 HIV-uninfected drug users, and 64 HIV-infected non-drug users were recruited. Their HLA-DRB1 allele frequencies were ana...
