Common Variants at 10 Genomic Loci Influence Hemoglobin A(1C) Levels via Glycemic and Nonglycemic Pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
OBJECTIVE Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), used to monitor and diagnose diabetes, is influenced by average glycemia over a 2- to 3-month period. Genetic factors affecting expression, turnover, and abnormal glycation of hemoglobin could also be associated ...

Magnetic mechanism for the biological functioning of hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
The role of magnetism in the biological functioning of hemoglobin has been debated since its discovery by Pauling and Coryell in 1936. The hemoglobin molecule contains four heme groups each having a porphyrin layer with a Fe ion at the center. Here, we present combined density-functional theory and quantum Monte Carlo calculations for an effective ...

Mortality and cardiovascular disease after cholecystectomy in type 2 diabetes: A nationwide longitudinal cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The long‐term effects of cholecystectomy on mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with diabetes have not been evaluated. In the present study, we investigated the longitudinal effects of cholecystectomy on mortality and CVD in a population‐based cohort with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods In total, 2 216 930 national
