Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military's concerns about the individual combat service member's ability to avoid performance degradation, in conjunction with the need to maintain both mental and physical capabilities in highly stressful situations, have led to and interest in developing methods by which commanders can monitor the status of the combat service members in the field. This report examines appropriate biological markers, monitoring technologies currently available and in need of development, and appropriate algorithms to interpret the data obtained in order to provide information for command decisions relative to the physiological "readiness" of each combat service member. More specifically, this report also provides responses to questions posed by the military relative to monitoring the metabolic regulation during prolonged, exhaustive efforts, where nutrition/hydration and repair mechanisms may be mismatched to intakes and rest, or where specific metabolic derangements are present.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: As a global chronic disease, diabetes is associated with high morbidity and cannot be fully cured with current technology. In order to achieve better long-term control of glucose, it requires continuous monitoring of metabolic indices. The most commonly used glucose monitor is finger stick testing glucose meters. When using it as a method for frequent glucose monitoring, it can cause physical discomfort, infection risk and contradiction. Noninvasive glucose monitoring can accomplish painless, risk-free, low-cost and frequent testing of glucose, which is an ideal method for self-monitoring of glucose. Aims: To verify the accuracy of noninvasive blood glucose monitor based on metabolic heat conformation method in patients with type 2 diabetes. The Noninvasive Glucose Monitor: Based on the theory of metabolic heat conformation method, Tsinghua University and Beijing Sunicare Medical Technologies Co., Ltd. developed a noninvasive glucose monitor. The monitor includes a host and a probe, as shown in Fig. 1. The probe is like a finger clip and the sensors are located inside the probe. The host is like an ipad, which is used for human-computer interaction, control the signal acquisition, data processing and result presenting.The Clinical Trial Design: The recruited type 2 diabetes subjects arrived at the test center before 8 am, then took a rest for 30 minutes to make sure the volunteers are in heat balance state with the environment. The fasting calibration was done first, then the noninvasive test was performed 20 minutes later. The fingertip blood and serum plasma glucose test were performed immediately after the noninvasive test, and the fasting glucose test was finished. The subjects then ate 80g noodles in 15 minutes. Then in 2 hours postprandial, the noninvasive test, fingertip blood test and serum plasma test were conducted in sequence. All the three tests were performed two times, the average of the two results was taken.Results: A total of 254 type 2 diabetes subjects were enrolled, including 118 female and 136 male, with an average age of 59.3 years. Comparison of the noninvasive glucose results and the serum blood glucose result: overall glucose range was 4.0-23.8 mmol/L, the correlation was 0.6902, the RMSE (root-mean-square error) was 2.668 mmol/L; the fasting glucose range was 4.0-17.3 mmol/L, the correlation was 0.8394, the RMSE was 1.855 mmol/L; the 2 hours postprandial glucose range was 4.7-23.8 mmol/L, the correlation was 0. 5393, the RMSE was 3.290 mmol/L. The results in the Parkersu2019 error grid were shown in Fig. 3 and Tab. 1. The fasting results were showed in black and the postprandial results were showed in red.Discussion: The noninvasive blood glucose monitor based on metabolic heat conformation method showed a good correlation with the serum glucose in fasting state, while in postprandial state the correlation reduced. This may related to the greater variability of the parameters of local circulation state, temperature and humidity in postprandial state. The method requires the user and the environment are in heat balance state, which is not easy to quantify. We need to make a trade-off between test convenience and accuracy, rest in the environment for 20 to 30 minutes is a suitable choice. It is suggested that, with a further technical improvement or more specific use conditions, the noninvasive blood glucose monitor based on metabolic heat conformation method have a great prospect in noninvasive glucose monitoring in clinical use.

This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The close association between blood glucose control and the well-being of the patient, as well as the risk for the development of the "late" complications of 3 diabetes, make it necessary to attain near normalisation of blood glucosel- ). Signifi cant progress has been made in this direction in the last few years because of the advancement of analytical techniques for the monitoring of both metabolic status and the functional state of the pancreas and the kidneys, organs involved in the disease process. The respective methodologies are the test strips for self-monitoring of glucose in blood and urine, the measurement of the nonenzymatic glycosylation of hemoglobin and serum proteins, the C-peptide assay, and the determination of small amounts of albumin in urine. The test strip methodology for determination of glucose in blood and urine has made possible home blood glucose monitoring which enables the patient to aim for treatment targets near the physiological range. To this information on short term glycemia obtained by the patient, the determination of hemoglobin glycosylation in the clinical chemistry laboratory adds quantitative information about averaged long term glycemic control. The C-peptide assay allows evaluation of the residual pancreatic function in the presence of exogenous insulin. Results of a C-peptide assay are helpful in selecting the appropriate treatment for poorly controlled maturity-onset diabetes. The detection of microalbuminuria, an abnormal albumin excretion below the level of "Albustix" detection, establishes nephropathy before renal damage becomes irreversible.

Book Synopsis Point-of-care testing by : Peter Luppa
Download or read book Point-of-care testing written by Peter Luppa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The underlying technology and the range of test parameters available are evolving rapidly. The primary advantage of POCT is the convenience of performing the test close to the patient and the speed at which test results can be obtained, compared to sending a sample to a laboratory and waiting for results to be returned. Thus, a series of clinical applications are possible that can shorten the time for clinical decision-making about additional testing or therapy, as delays are no longer caused by preparation of clinical samples, transport, and central laboratory analysis. Tests in a POC format can now be found for many medical disciplines including endocrinology/diabetes, cardiology, nephrology, critical care, fertility, hematology/coagulation, infectious disease and microbiology, and general health screening. Point-of-care testing (POCT) enables health care personnel to perform clinical laboratory testing near the patient. The idea of conventional and POCT laboratory services presiding within a hospital seems contradictory; yet, they are, in fact, complementary: together POCT and central laboratory are important for the optimal functioning of diagnostic processes. They complement each other, provided that a dedicated POCT coordination integrates the quality assurance of POCT into the overall quality management system of the central laboratory. The motivation of the third edition of the POCT book from Luppa/Junker, which is now also available in English, is to explore and describe clinically relevant analytical techniques, organizational concepts for application and future perspectives of POCT. From descriptions of the opportunities that POCT can provide to the limitations that clinician’s must be cautioned about, this book provides an overview of the many aspects that challenge those who choose to implement POCT. Technologies, clinical applications, networking issues and quality regulations are described as well as a survey of future technologies that are on the future horizon. The editors have spent considerable efforts to update the book in general and to highlight the latest developments, e.g., novel POCT applications of nucleic acid testing for the rapid identification of infectious agents. Of particular note is also that a cross-country comparison of POCT quality rules is being described by a team of international experts in this field.
Book Synopsis The Heterogeneity of Cancer Metabolism by : Anne Le
Download or read book The Heterogeneity of Cancer Metabolism written by Anne Le and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic alterations in cancer, in addition to being the fundamental drivers of tumorigenesis, can give rise to a variety of metabolic adaptations that allow cancer cells to survive and proliferate in diverse tumor microenvironments. This metabolic flexibility is different from normal cellular metabolic processes and leads to heterogeneity in cancer metabolism within the same cancer type or even within the same tumor. In this book, we delve into the complexity and diversity of cancer metabolism, and highlight how understanding the heterogeneity of cancer metabolism is fundamental to the development of effective metabolism-based therapeutic strategies. Deciphering how cancer cells utilize various nutrient resources will enable clinicians and researchers to pair specific chemotherapeutic agents with patients who are most likely to respond with positive outcomes, allowing for more cost-effective and personalized cancer therapeutic strategies.

Book Synopsis Saliva in Health and Disease by : Asta Tvarijonaviciute
Download or read book Saliva in Health and Disease written by Asta Tvarijonaviciute and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saliva as a unique sample for health assessment is gaining attention among researchers of different fields in the last 20 years; being reflected in an impressive increase in the number of papers published studying saliva from different biological aspects in human and veterinary species. Once deemed merely a digestive juice is now considered a biological fluid capable of communicating information about physiopathological processes occurring in organisms, since saliva has been shown to contain molecular and bacterial compounds that can change in response to local and systemic pathologies. Furthermore, the interest of saliva as a diagnostic, prognostic and monitoring biofluid is forced by its non-invasive nature being of easy and inexpensive sampling, involving only minimal discomfort and allowing the collection of multiple/repeated specimens at anytime, anywhere and without need for specialized staff. In this contributed volume, the authors bring together, summarize and reflect the generated knowledge about saliva as a source of biomarkers for health and welfare evaluation in humans and animal models. This volume also highlights the importance of confounding factors, such as sampling methods, flow, total protein content, contamination, or storage. This book will serve as a manual for graduates, practitioners and researchers by providing general ideas about the possibilities and utilities of saliva in clinical practice or investigation, and indicating the main cautions each should have in mind before saliva usage.
