Book Synopsis Depression and Diabetes by : Wayne Katon
Download or read book Depression and Diabetes written by Wayne Katon and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-06-09 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the multiple interrelationships between depression and various physical diseases. The WPA is providing an update of currently available evidence on these interrelationships by the publication of three books, dealing with the comorbidity of depression with diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Depression is a frequent and serious comorbid condition in diabetes, which adversely affects quality of life and the long-term prognosis. Co-occurrent depression presents peculiar clinical challenges, making both conditions harder to manage. Depression and Diabetes is the first book devoted to the interaction between these common disorders. World leaders in diabetes, depression and public health synthesize current evidence, including some previously unpublished data, in a concise, easy-to-read format. They provide an overview of the epidemiology, pathogenesis, medical costs, management, and public health and cultural implications of the comorbidity between depression and diabetes. The book describes how the negative consequences of depression in diabetes could be avoided, given that effective depression treatments for diabetic patients are available. Its practical approach makes the book ideal for all those involved in the management of these patients: psychiatrists, psychologists, diabetologists, general practitioners, diabetes specialist nurses and mental health nurses.

Book excerpt: This inspiring, dignified and deeply moving personal account of a family coming to terms with the diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes for both husband and daughter has been written for three purposes: - to encourage other families affected by this serious lifelong medical condition to rebuild their lives after diagnosis- to make the wider community aware of the challenge of living with Type 1 Diabetes- to raise money for research into a cure for Type 1 DiabetesAll profits from the sales of this short book will be donated to JDRF, the leading charitable funder of research into better therapy and a cure for Type 1 Diabetes.All those involved in the production of this book have generously given their services free of charge in order to maximise the funds raised for JDRF.AS COMMENDED BY JUSTIN WEBB, BBC RADIO 4 TODAY PRESENTER"For families around Britain and around the world - today and tomorrow and for every day until a cure is found - a diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes is a life-altering, life-worsening piece of news. Their daily struggle to cope - which begins with that news - can never end. For parents, for the children themselves, all is changed. Some cope badly and suffer the awful consequences of complications and added misery. But some people have within them ... the strength to fight back... this book has been written by someone who is ready and willing and able to fight back, and I commend her for it. Debbie Young has written a moving and personal testimony. I hope it inspires people to support the work of JDRF. And to salute the pioneers who first helped Type 1 Diabetics to stay alive, and nowadays helps them to live increasingly normal lives. This is a story that begins with harsh reality but encompasses success as well. It is a story of hope and progress, and one day it must end, in triumph." The above text is is an extract of the book's Foreword, written by Justin Webb, who co-presents BBC Radio 4's Today programme. Justin Webb's own son was also recently diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. PRE-PUBLICATION REVIEWS......FROM MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS"It's a lovely uplifting little book, full of insight, wit, and practical know-how.

I envy you the ability to write the most heart-wrenching words with such a light touch that the reader can bear to keep going." - LA, who has a daughter with Type 1 Diabetes"This is a great booklet for parents of children just diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes - identifying with other parents' feelings is just what you need when your child is newly diagnosed." - LH, who has a son with Type 1 Diabetes...AND FROM FAMILIES WITH NO EXPERIENCE OF TYPE 1 DIABETES "A wonderful, poignant account that hits just the right note - emotional but not victimy. It is clear that the author is not after the sympathy vote but just sharing the emotional roller coaster she went through. Her hopes for a cure make the reader feel that they can do something really constructive (like donating!") - VP, mother of three"Excellent, emotive and simply expressed." JD, mother of two
Book Synopsis Personalized Predictive Modeling in Type 1 Diabetes by : Eleni I. Georga
Download or read book Personalized Predictive Modeling in Type 1 Diabetes written by Eleni I. Georga and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Personalized Predictive Modeling in Diabetes features state-of-the-art methodologies and algorithmic approaches which have been applied to predictive modeling of glucose concentration, ranging from simple autoregressive models of the CGM time series to multivariate nonlinear regression techniques of machine learning. Developments in the field have been analyzed with respect to: (i) feature set (univariate or multivariate), (ii) regression technique (linear or non-linear), (iii) learning mechanism (batch or sequential), (iv) development and testing procedure and (v) scaling properties. In addition, simulation models of meal-derived glucose absorption and insulin dynamics and kinetics are covered, as an integral part of glucose predictive models. This book will help engineers and clinicians to: select a regression technique which can capture both linear and non-linear dynamics in glucose metabolism in diabetes, and which exhibits good generalization performance under stationary and non-stationary conditions; ensure the scalability of the optimization algorithm (learning mechanism) with respect to the size of the dataset, provided that multiple days of patient monitoring are needed to obtain a reliable predictive model; select a features set which efficiently represents both spatial and temporal dependencies between the input variables and the glucose concentration; select simulation models of subcutaneous insulin absorption and meal absorption; identify an appropriate validation procedure, and identify realistic performance measures. Describes fundamentals of modeling techniques as applied to glucose control Covers model selection process and model validation Offers computer code on a companion website to show implementation of models and algorithms Features the latest developments in the field of diabetes predictive modeling

Book Synopsis Exercise and Diabetes by : Sheri R. Colberg
Download or read book Exercise and Diabetes written by Sheri R. Colberg and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical movement has a positive effect on physical fitness, morbidity, and mortality in individuals with diabetes. Although exercise has long been considered a cornerstone of diabetes management, many health care providers fail to prescribe it. In addition, many fitness professionals may be unaware of the complexities of including physical activity in the management of diabetes. Giving patients or clients a full exercise prescription that take other chronic conditions commonly accompanying diabetes into account may be too time-consuming for or beyond the expertise of many health care and fitness professionals. The purpose of this book is to cover the recommended types and quantities of physical activities that can and should be undertaken by all individuals with any type of diabetes, along with precautions related to medication use and diabetes-related health complications. Medications used to control diabetes should augment lifestyle improvements like increased daily physical activity rather than replace them. Up until now, professional books with exercise information and prescriptions were not timely or interactive enough to easily provide busy professionals with access to the latest recommendations for each unique patient. However, simply instructing patients to “exercise more” is frequently not motivating or informative enough to get them regularly or safely active. This book is changing all that with its up-to-date and easy-to-prescribe exercise and physical activity recommendations and relevant case studies. Read and learn to quickly prescribe effective and appropriate exercise to everyone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of insulin at the University of Toronto in 1921-22 was one of the most dramatic events in the history of the treatment of disease.

In this engaging and award-winning account, historian Michael Bliss recounts the fascinating story behind the discovery of insulin – a story as much filled with fiery confrontation and intense competition as medical dedication and scientific genius.

Welch Medal of the American Association for the History of Medicine.
