To use electronic health record (EHR) data to develop a scalable and transferrable model to predict 6-month risk for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA)-related hospitalization or emergency care in youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D). To achieve a sharable predictive model, we engineered features using EHR data mapped to the T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative's (T1DX-QI) data schema used by 60+ U.S.

Parental Psychosocial Variables and Glycemic Control in T1D Pediatric Age: A Systematic Review.

Purpose Of Review: This review aimed to summarize the evidence regarding the relationship between parental psychosocial (e.g., fear of hypoglycemia, stress and family conflict) and glycemic outcomes in children between the age of 1-10 years old.

Fear of hypoglycemia relates to glycemic levels during and after real-world physical activity in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Background: We explore the association between hypoglycaemia fear (FH) and glycaemia during and after exercise sessions in a large sample of physically active youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Methods: We used data from the Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative Paediatric (T1DEXIP) Study. Youth self-reported on FH using the Hypoglycaemia Fear Survey-Child (HFS-C).

Covalent labeling of the Arabidopsis plasma membrane H-ATPase reveals 3D conformational changes involving the C-terminal regulatory domain.

The plasma membrane proton pump is the primary energy transducing, electrogenic ion pump of the plasma membrane in plants and fungi. Compared to its fungal counterpart, the plant plasma membrane proton pump's regulatory C-terminal domain (CTD) contains an additional regulatory segment that links multiple sensory pathways regulating plant cell length through phosphorylation and recruitment of regulatory 14-3-3 proteins. However, a complete structural model of a plant proton pump is lacking.

An analysis of the physicochemical properties of oral drugs from 2000 to 2022.

Calculable physicochemical descriptors are a useful guide to assist compound design in medicinal chemistry. It is well established that controlling size, lipophilicity, hydrogen bonding, flexibility and shape, guided by descriptors that approximate to these properties, can greatly increase the chances of successful drug discovery. Many therapeutic targets and new modalities are incompatible with the optimal ranges of these properties and thus there is much interest in approaches to find oral drug candidates outside of this space.

Search for a Sub-eV Sterile Neutrino Using Daya Bay's Full Dataset.

This Letter presents results of a search for the mixing of a sub-eV sterile neutrino with three active neutrinos based on the full data sample of the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, collected during 3158 days of detector operation, which contains 5.55×10^{6} reactor ν[over ¯]_{e} candidates identified as inverse beta-decay interactions followed by neutron capture on gadolinium. The analysis benefits from a doubling of the statistics of our previous result and from improvements of several important systematic uncertainties.

The Association Between Diet Quality and Glycemic Outcomes Among People with Type 1 Diabetes.

Background: The amount and type of food consumed impacts the glycemic response and insulin needs of people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Daily variability in consumption, reflected in diet quality, may acutely impact glycemic levels and insulin needs.

Objective: Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative (T1DEXI) data were examined to evaluate the impact of daily diet quality on near-term glycemic control and interaction with exercise.

External relationships as implementation determinants in community-engaged, equity-focused COVID-19 vaccination events.

Background: While relationships and connectedness among organizations have been included in implementation theories, models, and frameworks, the increased attention to health equity in implementation science raises the urgency of understanding the role of relationships external to the implementing organization. This paper addresses this gap through an exploration of the role of external relationships in community-based, equity-focused interventions.

Methods: This study focuses on an equity-focused, community-based COVID-19 vaccination intervention in Arkansas, drawing upon long-term community-engaged relationships among University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the Hispanic and Marshallese Islander communities.

Associations between daily step count classifications and continuous glucose monitoring metrics in adults with type 1 diabetes: analysis of the Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative (T1DEXI) cohort.

Aims/hypothesis: Adults with type 1 diabetes should perform daily physical activity to help maintain health and fitness, but the influence of daily step counts on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics are unclear. This analysis used the Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative (T1DEXI) dataset to investigate the effect of daily step count on CGM-based metrics.

Methods: In a 4 week free-living observational study of adults with type 1 diabetes, with available CGM and step count data, we categorised participants into three groups-below (<7000), meeting (7000-10,000) or exceeding (>10,000) the daily step count goal-to determine if step count category influenced CGM metrics, including per cent time in range (TIR: 3.

Factors Affecting Reproducibility of Change in Glucose During Exercise: Results From the Type 1 Diabetes and EXercise Initiative.

Aims: To evaluate factors affecting within-participant reproducibility in glycemic response to different forms of exercise.

Methods: Structured exercise sessions ~30 minutes in length from the Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative (T1DEXI) study were used to assess within-participant glycemic variability during and after exercise. The effect of several pre-exercise factors on the within-participant glycemic variability was evaluated.

Online Classification of Unstructured Free-Living Exercise Sessions in People with Type 1 Diabetes.

Managing exercise in type 1 diabetes is challenging, in part, because different types of exercises can have diverging effects on glycemia. The aim of this work was to develop a classification model that can classify an exercise event (structured or unstructured) as aerobic, interval, or resistance for the purpose of incorporation into an automated insulin delivery (AID) system. A long short-term memory network model was developed with real-world data from 30-min structured sessions of at-home exercise (aerobic, resistance, or mixed) using triaxial accelerometer, heart rate, and activity duration information.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included gynecologic oncology patients with Type I and Type II diabetes (DM) undergoing laparotomy for any gynecologic indication at a single academic center from 10/2017 to 09/2020. The primary outcome was the rate of postoperative complications.

Effectiveness of the massed delivery of unified protocol for emotional disorders within an intensive outpatient program for military service members and veterans.

Recent evidence supports the implementation of massed delivery of disorder-specific treatments in the military service member and veteran population. However, many treatment settings serve patients with a wide range of diagnoses, and often patients present with comorbid conditions. Growing evidence suggests transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral treatments are effective for a wide range of emotional disorders and may reduce barriers to access.

Postprandial Glucose Variability Following Typical Meals in Youth Living with Type 1 Diabetes.

We explored the association between macronutrient intake and postprandial glucose variability in a large sample of youth living with T1D and consuming free-living meals. In the Type 1 Diabetes Exercise Initiative Pediatric (T1DEXIP) Study, youth took photographs before and after their meals on 3 days during a 10 day observation period. We used the remote food photograph method to obtain the macronutrient content of youth's meals.
