Promoting Type 1 Diabetes Self-care Management in the Hospital: Can It Be Done?

Purpose: The specific aim of the study was to determine whether there was an increased time in target glucose range for individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus who were permitted to self-manage their insulin plan while hospitalized.

Design: A retrospective chart review was conducted of 60 inpatients with type 1 diabetes mellitus who met the criteria to self-manage their diabetes care with the use of their continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pump or a multiple daily injection insulin regimen. A comparison of the 2 groups was examined to assess differences in glucose outcomes and glycemic stability.

Tox21Enricher-Shiny: an R Shiny application for toxicity functional annotation analysis.

Inference of toxicological and mechanistic properties of untested chemicals through structural or biological similarity is a commonly employed approach for initial chemical characterization and hypothesis generation. We previously developed a web-based application, Tox21Enricher-Grails, on the Grails framework that identifies enriched biological/toxicological properties of chemical sets for the purpose of inferring properties of untested chemicals within the set. It was able to detect significantly overrepresented biological (e.

Nighttime sleep and daytime sleepiness patterns among left ventricular assist device patients.

Despite the high prevalence of sleep disturbance in the heart failure population, information about its consequence on daytime function in patients with left-ventricular assist devices (LVADs) is limited. This study examined the nighttime and daytime sleep patterns and changes from pre-implant to 6 months post-implant. This study included 32 LVAD patients.
