Anionic exchange resins are bona fide cholesterol-lowering agents with glycemia lowering actions in diabetic patients. Potentiation of intestinal GLP-1 secretion has been proposed to contribute to the glycemia lowering effect of these non-systemic drugs. H ...
Gait characteristics and balance are altered in diabetic patients. Little is known about possible treatment strategies. This study evaluates the effect of a specific training programme on gait and balance of diabetic patients. ...
The formation of the pancreas from the endoderm layer takes place in different steps including the specification of the precursor territory, the outgrowth of pancreas buds, the differentiation of exocrine and endocrine cells, and the migration of endocrine ...
This invention relates to methods and compositions for the prevention and treatment of Type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease with diabetic or pre-diabetic conditions or symptoms associated therewith using both a PPAR gamma agonist and a PPAR alpha ago ...
The goal is to develop a miniaturized system allowing continuous measurement of glucose concentration profiles over 24 hours for several days. The unique feature of the PharmaSens / IMT approach lies in the insertion mechanism and the needle size to assure ...
Aims: Gait characteristics and balance are altered in diabetic individuals. Little is known about possible treatment strategies. This study evaluated the effect of a specific training program on diabetic patients' gait. ...
Production of human monoclonal autoantibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase Mr 65,000 (GAD65), characterization of their isotype, binding affinity, V region sequences and competition with autoantibodies in patients' sera is described. Lymphocytes from a p ...
Aims/hypothesis. Glima 38 is an N-glycated neuroendocrine membrane protein of Mr 38 000, which is recognised by autoantibodies in approximately 20% of patients with Type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to characterise the ...
Background: Glucose is the most important metabolic substrate of the retina and maintenance of normoglycemia is an essential challenge for diabetic patients. Glycemic excursions could lead to cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. ...
The value of a test for islet cell cytoplasmic antibodies together with a test for GAD65 antibodies to predict the subsequent development of diabetes over a period of 11.5 years was assessed in an open childhood population comprising 2,805 individuals. A s ...
