Effects of wine intake on postprandial plasma amino acid and protein kinetics in type 1 diabetes
No full textEffects of metformin treatment on whole-body and splanchnic amino acid turnover in mild type 2 diabetes.
No full textThe effects of metformin therapy on whole body and splanchnic amino acid turnover are not known. Therefore, we have studied fasting and postprandial phenylalanine kinetics in type 2 diabetic subjects (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus), previously treated with diet only, both before and after 4 weeks of either metformin (850 mg twice a day) (n = 11) or placebo administration (n = 6). Phenylalanine kinetic was evaluated by means of a multiple isotope technique: tritiated phenylalanine was infused i.v., whereas carbon-labeled phenylalanine was incorporated into a chemically-defined meal. Compared with placebo, metformin administration decreased both fasting (from 162 +/- 17 to 141 +/- 20 mg/dl) and postprandial (from 217 +/- 20 to 164 +/- 20 mg/dl) glucose concentrations (P < 0.05-P < 0.01). Fasting insulin concentrations were unaffected, but postmeal insulin tended to be lower (P < 0.06) after metformin. Compared with the pretreatment period, metformin administration did not change total phenylalanine rate of appearance (fasted state, 0.74 +/- 0.10 vs. 0.71 +/- 0.08 mumol/kg.min; fed state, 0.77 +/- 0.10 vs. 0.75 +/- 0.08 mumol/kg.min, respectively), dietary and endogenous phenylalanine rate of appearance, dietary phenylalanine oxidation, and splanchnic uptake, similar to what was observed in the placebo group. Our data indicate that, at least after a 4-week treatment, metformin does not affect fasting and postprandial protein turnover, as indicated by phenylalanine data, in subjects with mild non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
Glycaemic Control Among People with Type 1 Diabetes During Lockdown for the SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak in Italy
Full text linkIn late February 2020, due to the spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the Italian Government closed down all educational and sport activities. In March, it introduced further measures to stop the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), placing the country in a state of almost complete lockdown. We report the impact of these restrictions on glucose control among people with type 1 diabetes (T1D)

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
