Divergent Changes in Plasma AGEs and sRAGE Isoforms Following an Overnight Fast in T1DM
Abstract: Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) promote the development of diabetic complications through activation of their receptor (RAGE). Isoforms of soluble RAGE (sRAGE) sequester AGEs and protect against RAGE-mediated diabetic complications. We investigated the effect of an overnight fast on circulating metabolic substrates, hormones, AGEs, and sRAGE isoforms in 26 individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Blood was collected from 26 young (18–30 years) T1DM patients on insulin pumps ...

Carbohydrate Counting in Children and Adolescents
with Type 1 Diabetes
Abstract: Carbohydrate counting (CC) is a meal-planning tool for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) treated with a basal bolus insulin regimen by means of multiple daily injections or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion. It is based on an awareness of foods that contain carbohydrates and their effect on blood glucose. The bolus insulin dose needed is obtained from the total amount of carbohydrates consumed at each meal and the insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio. Evidence suggests that CC may have positive effects ...

Administration of vitamin D and high dose of omega 3 to sustain remission of type 1 diabetes
Abstract. – OBJECTIVE: Two cases of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) in pediatric subjects treated with supplementation with high dose vitamin D and omega 3 are reported. A similar pattern of remission of the disease was observed, resulting in restoration and subsequent persistence of optimal metabolic control, one and two years after T1D onset. Minimal basal insulin administration (0.1 IU/kg/die) in a single evening injection was required. The immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of ...

Accuracy of Automatic Carbohydrate, Protein, Fat and Calorie Counting Based on Voice Descriptions of Meals in People with Type 1 Diabetes
Abstract: The aim of this work was to assess the accuracy of automatic macronutrient and calorie counting based on voice descriptions of meals provided by people with unstable type 1 diabetes using the developed expert system (VoiceDiab) in comparison with reference counting made by a dietitian, and to evaluate the impact of insulin doses recommended by a physician on glycemic control in the study’s participants. We also compared insulin doses ...

Vitamin D and Breast Cancer: Past and Present
Abstract
The presence of the vitamin D receptor in mammary gland and breast cancer has been recognized since the early 1980s, and multiple pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that its ligand 1,25D modulates normal mammary gland development and sensitivity to carcinogenesis. Although studies have characterized many 1,25D responsive targets in normal mammary cells and in breast cancers, validation of relevant targets that regulate cell cycle, apoptosis, autophagy and differentiation, particularly in vivo, has been challenging. Vitamin D ...

Whole Grain Consumption for the Prevention and Treatment of Breast Cancer
Abstract: Breast cancer is one of the most common and malignant cancers among females worldwide. Several epidemiological studies have indicated the inverse correlation between the intake of whole grains and the incidence of breast cancer. Whole grains are the most fundamental and important food source of bioactive phytochemicals, which have well-defined roles in the management of each stage of breast carcinogenesis. To better understand the value of whole grains in future prevention and treatment of breast ...

Vitamin D: And its role in breast cancer
Abstract Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin that plays a role in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. Recently, extensive research on its extraskeletal actions has linked vitamin D deficiency to an increased risk of infection, diabetes mellitus types 1 and 2, cardiovascular disease, obesity, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, colon, breast, prostate and ovarian cancer and some neurological diseases. There are various mechanisms by which vitamin D
influences the natural history of cancer. These include the role of vitamin D in the induction of ...
