The change in blood glucose levels in tuberculosis patients before and during anti-tuberculosis treatment in China

Global Health Action, 2017
Objective: We aimed to observe (i) changes in fasting blood glucose (FBG) in tuberculosis (TB) patients before and during anti-TB treatment, (ii) whether FBG levels were stable or unstable and (iii) baseline characteristics associated with an unstable ...

Monitoring Auxetic Structure with FBG Sensor

e-Journal of Nondestructive Testing
Auxetic materials are a particular class of materials which present a negative Poisson ratio (NPR). This means that once they are stretched, they expand in the directions orthogonal to the applied load. The dual behaviour occurs during compression tests.

Development of FBG Strain-Detection System with Narrow Band Filter using a Scanning FBG

IEEJ Transactions on Sensors and Micromachines, 2007
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) strain-sensing system has been paid much attention for the advantages of its light weight, anti-explosion, and harmlessness for electromagnetic noise, but it has not been widely used in practical applications with the high price. We have developed a new concept of wavelength meter in which the transmission center wavelength is

Association Between MRI‐Derived Right‐to‐Left Ventricular Volume Ratio and Regional Left Ventricular Myocardial Dysfunction in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Right ventricular (RV) to left ventricular (LV) end‐diastolic volume ratio (RV/LV) is a validated marker of RV dilation in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), yet its impact on LV myocardial function and the underlying mediating pathway is incompletely characterized.

Effect of Millets Once a Day on Glycaemic Control among Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in a Tertiary Care Setting – A Randomized Controlled Trial

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 14% of pregnancies globally, with a prevalence of 9–16% in India. Low-glycaemic index (GI) foods like millets may help control glycaemia in GDM.

Postoperative Fasting Blood Glucose Predicts Prognosis in Stage I-III Colorectal Cancer Patients Undergoing Resection

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2020
Purpose. The relationship between high blood glucose and colorectal cancer (CRC) has been studied, but the role of postoperative fasting blood glucose (FBG) in patients with a prior normal FBG has never been addressed. Methods.
