Using a multistep machine-learning procedure, add virtual continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) traces to the original sparse data of the landmark Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT). Assess the association of CGM metrics with the microvascular complications of type 1 diabetes observed during the DCCT and establish time-in-range (TIR) as a viable marker of glycemic control. Utilizing the DCCT glycated hemoglobin data obtained every 1 or 3 months plus quarterly 7-point blood glucose (BG) profiles in a multistep procedure: (i) utilized archival BG traces to model interday BG variability and estimate glycated hemoglobin; (ii) trained across the DCCT BG profiles and associated each profile with an archival BG trace; and (iii) used previously identified CGM "motifs" to associate a CGM trace to a BG trace, for each DCCT participant.

Dechlorination is a crucial strategy for archeological bronze stabilization to resist corrosion induced by cuprous chloride (CuCl). Conventional samples, either archeological or simulated ones, have deficiencies in revealing dechlorination mechanisms for their complex rust layers and difficulties in quantifying chlorine content. In this work, samples with fixed chlorine amounts were prepared by compressing method to solve overcomplicated and unquantifiable problems.

This review highlights the significance of the Japan Diabetes Complications Study (JDCS), one of the earliest large-scale studies of people with type 2 diabetes outside Europe and the United States, in understanding type 2 diabetes mellitus among East Asian populations, particularly in Japan. Historically, large-scale clinical studies on type 2 diabetes mellitus have predominantly focused on Western populations, despite East Asians comprising the largest proportion of diabetic patients globally. The JDCS, which was initiated in 1996, enrolled 2,033 Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

Marine Heatwaves (MHWs) are prolonged episodes of above- 'normal' Sea Surface Temperature (SST) which have imposed detrimental impacts on oceans and their dependent ecosystem services. The key question still remained unresolved or at least still not fully addressed in MHW science, is 'What is a valid normal or baseline?'. In other words, can the conventional 'normal' serve as a realistic valid baseline in today's oceans experiencing the impacts of contemporaneous climatic changes and global warming during anthropogenic era? To robustly address this issue, we attempted to propose a methodology for identifying MHW thresholds that accounts for SST warming.

Background: The adoption of integrated curricula in medical schools has grown globally, emphasizing the need to understand academic medical staff satisfaction as a crucial factor influencing successful implementation.
Aim: This study aimed to assess satisfaction levels among academic medical staff with integrated medical curricula, identifying socio-demographic and work-related predictors of dissatisfaction.
Methods: A cross-sectional, online multinational survey was conducted from December 2023 to April 2024 among 525 academic medical staff.
