A behavioral family intervention to improve adherence and metabolic control in children with IDDM
… of glycosylated hemoglobin (e.g., HbA1C.) Five IDDM children (3 female,2 male), who met study criteria (Le., nonadherence to blood glucose testing defined as oS. 2 tests daily and metabolic status outside the optimal range using standard laboratory reference values) were recruited from physician …

Neuronal Toxicity of Humoral Factors From Patients With Diabetic Neuropathy and Mechanism of Neuronal Death on Cultured Adrenergic Neurons: Studies of Autoimmune Pathogenesis in Diabetic Neuropathy
… autonomic neuron, we found that sera of IDDM patients with neuropathy inhibit growth and differentiation of adrenergic neurons in culture (Pittenger et al, 1993; 1995). Some sera were cytotoxic and caused neuronal death. Further characterization of the inhibiting, or toxic, factor in IDDM …

A Comparison of Self-Esteem and Health Locus of Control in Adolescents with Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus
… control in insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) adolescents. The purpose of the research was to study and describe health behaviors of IDDM adolescents in regards to self-concept and health locus of control. These behaviors are believed to have life-long ramifications on the IDDM …

COMPARATIVE STUDIES OF DIFFERENT SYSTEM MODELS FOR ITERATIVE CT IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION
… we propose an improved distance-driven model (IDDM) whose computational cost is as low as the distance-driven model (DDM) and the accuracy is comparable with the area integral model (AIM). The performance of different system models, such as pixel-driven model (PDM), ray-driven model (RDM), AIM, …

Plant-delivered Cholera Toxin B subunit as an Immunomodulatory Molecule
… such as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).</p> <p>Mice fed with transgenic potato tubers synthesizing 0.3% of CTB as total tuber protein generated serum and mucosal antibodies with toxin neutralizing capability. The immunized mice were partially protected from diarrhea induced by …

Nuclear magnetic resonance microscopy and diffusion
… advance our understanding of the progression IDDM but also help monitor the treatment and prognosis of IDDM patients. Throughout the high resolution imaging studies at high field (14.1 T), a new gradient sequence was developed to suppress the distortion due to the internal fields. This …

Somatic cell gene therapy for diabetes mellitus: engineering a surrogate B-cell
… of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) to achieve a more physiological profile of glucose homeostasis. Somatic cell gene therapy offers the prospect that insulin could be delivered by an autologous cell implant, engineered to secrete insulin in response to glucose. This study …

An Analysis of Adherence in Childhood Diabetes: Social Learning and Family Systems Variables
… youths with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and their parents. Parents' and youths' perceptions of their abilities in diabetes and related situations, family cohesion and adaptability, and perceptions of the family's ability to integrate the demands of the diabetes regimen into general …

COMPRESSIVE SENSING BASED IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION FOR COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY DOSE REDUCTION
… first propose an improved distance-driven model (IDDM) whose computational cost is as low as the well-known distance-driven model (DDM) and the accuracy is comparable to the accurate area integral model (AIM). Recently, the Lp (0<p<1) regularization has attracted a great attention because it can …

Forecasting the lift of a randomly maneuvering airfoil under dynamic stall conditions, Re ∼ 10⁵
… predictions. Also, a new method introduced here, IdDM, conclusively links the characteristic frequency range of pressure fluctuations that emerges during the dynamic stall to the chord-lengthscale vortex dynamics. However, further analysis suggests that the forecast predominantly relies on the …

Use of a conservation-of-linkage strategy to identify a candidate for the rat Lymphopenia gene
… of Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) in the BioBreeding (BB) rat. In order to overcome the lack of positional cloning resources available in the rat to clone the Lyp gene, we developed and successfully implemented a conservation-of-linkage (COL) cloning strategy. Using the COL …
