OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of vildagliptin in comparison to sulphonylurea (SU) on hypoglycaemia in Muslim patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus fasting during Ramadan. METHODS VIRTUE was a multicenter, prospective, observational study, which enrolled 244 patients from Pakistan who were re-analysed. All included patients were treated with vildagliptin (n=121) or SU (n=121) as add-on to me...

U radu su analizirane osobe s dva srednjovjekovna nalazišta iz kontinentalne Hrvatske: Crkvara i Kliškovca. Na spomenutim nalazištima do danas je otkopana 121 osoba (47 djece, 27 žena i 47 muškaraca), od kojih su za analizu učestalosti i distribucije trauma uzete odrasle osobe (n=74). Prosječna starost muškaraca u analiziranom uzorku je 37,4 godina, a žena 36,5 godina. Ukupno je analizirano 573...

INTRODUCTION Fasting in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with high risk of hypoglycemia. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness and safety of vildagliptin in T2DM patients fasting during Ramadan in a real-life setting in Egypt. METHODS In this 16-week prospective and noninterventional study, data were collected up to 6 weeks before and after Ramadan ...

In this paper, the results of the Spherical Oil Agglomeration of Abstract .45 micrometer superpits low grade co al pa rticles (Bagworth Colliery, U.K.) within a su spension are prese nte d.Demineralized agglomerates were recovered directly by sieving on a 106 micrometer sieve. Verygood reductions in the ash content of the feed coal samples were achieved. In order to reducethe high levels of the...

the main purpose of the study is determination of the pollutants hazard potential as well as environmental vulnerability of qarah su river. first the most significant pollutant sources in the qarah su river watershed were identified and then accordingly the pollution hazard potential rate was calculated in universal ranking system model setting. then, by generalizing the algebraic sum of the re...

Studies light emitting devices based on MEHPPV and then performed electrical characterization over these. It has been found that light emitting efficiency of basic PLED viz. ITO/ MEHPPV/AI can be improved if added a buffer layer of Lif in between polymer and Al. This increased efficiency can be attributed to the lowering of potential barrier at AI cathode due to the presence of LiF buffer layer...

Ibuprofen is metabolized to chemically reactive acyl glucuronide and S-acyl-CoA metabolites that are proposed to transacylate glutathione (GSH) forming ibuprofen-S-acyl-GSH (I-SG) in vivo. Herein, we report the detection of novel metabolites of ibuprofen, namely ibuprofen-N-acyl-cysteinylglycine (I-N-CG), ibuprofenN-acyl-cysteine (I-N-C), and the mercapturic acid conjugate, ibuprofen-S-acyl-N-a...
