Are glucose profiles well-controlled within the targets recommended by the international diabetes federation in type 2 diabetes? : a meta-analysis of…
2018
AIMS: To assess continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) derived intra-day glucose profiles using global guideline for type 2 diabetes recommended by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). METHODS: The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, PubMed, CINAHL and Science Direct were searched to identify observational studies reporting intra-day glucose profiles using CGM in people with type 2 diabetes on any anti-diabetes agents. Overall and subgroup analyses were conducted to summarise mean differences between reported glucose profiles (fasting glucose, pre-meal glucose, postprandial glucose and post-meal glucose spike/excursion) and the IDF targets. RESULTS: Twelve observational studies totalling 731 pe…
Evidence of the role of short-term exposure to ozone on ischaemic cerebral and cardiac events: the Dijon Vascular Project (DIVA)
2010
Objectives To confirm the effects of short-term exposure to ozone (O 3 ) on ischaemic heart and cerebrovascular disease. Methods Daily levels of urban O 3 pollution, the incidence of first-ever, recurrent, fatal and non-fatal ischaemic cerebrovascular events (ICVE) and myocardial infarction (MI) were correlated using a case-crossover design. The authors analysed 1574 ICVE and 913 MI that occurred in Dijon, France (150 000 inhabitants) from 2001 to 2007. Sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter with an aerodiameter of ≤10 μg/m 3 (PM 10 ) were used to create bi-pollutant models. Using the adjusted OR, the effects of O 3 exposure were calcul…
Assessing age and gender in studies of breakthrough pain medications
2014
AbstractObjective:The present review was performed to identify possible differences observed between adults and elderly patients and between males and females in randomized clinical trials of breakthrough pain (BTP).Methods:A systematic search of the existing literature from 1998 to September 2013 was performed. Randomized clinical trials reporting data on older patients were selected.Results:Sixteen comparative studies were selected. The age range of inclusion criteria patients was mainly between 18–80 or ≥18 years. In some cases this data was unreported. The mean age of patients was 48–64 years, but information regarding the number of elderly patients was present in three studies only. Ge…
Identification of Subgroups of Women with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with Central Sensitization.
2016
Identification of subjects with different sensitization mechanisms can help to identify better therapeutic strategies for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The aim of the current study was to identify subgroups of women with CTS with different levels of sensitization.A total of 223 women with CTS were recruited. Self-reported variables included pain intensity, function, disability, and depression. Pressure pain thresholds (PPT) were assessed bilaterally over median, ulnar, and radial nerves, C5-C6 joint, carpal tunnel, and tibialis anterior to assess widespread pressure pain hyperalgesia. Heat (HPT) and cold (CPT) pain thresholds were also bilaterally assessed over the carpal tunnel and the the…
Frovatriptan versus almotriptan for acute treatment of menstrual migraine: analysis of a double-blind, randomized, cross-over, multicenter, Italian, …
2012
The objective of the study was to compare the efficacy and safety of frovatriptan and almotriptan in women with menstrually related migraine (IHS Classification of Headache disorders) enrolled in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, cross-over study. Patients received frovatriptan 2.5 mg or almotriptan 12.5 mg in a randomized sequence: after treating 3 episodes of migraine in no more than 3 months with the first treatment, the patient was switched to the other treatment. 67 of the 96 female patients of the intention-to-treat population of the main study had regular menstrual cycles and were thus included in this subgroup analysis. 77 migraine attacks classified as related to menses were…
On the algebraic representation of projectively embeddable affine geometries
1995
The main result of this article is an application of [1] and [2] which yields that an at least 2-dimensional affine geometry is module-induced if and only if it is projectively embeddable into an Arguesian projective lattice geometry.
Finitary shadows of compact subgroups of $$S(\omega )$$
2020
AbstractLet LF be the lattice of all subgroups of the group $$SF(\omega )$$SF(ω) of all finitary permutations of the set of natural numbers. We consider subgroups of $$SF(\omega )$$SF(ω) of the form $$C\cap SF(\omega )$$C∩SF(ω), where C is a compact subgroup of the group of all permutations. In particular, we study their distribution among elements of LF. We measure this using natural relations of orthogonality and almost containedness. We also study complexity of the corresponding families of compact subgroups of $$S(\omega )$$S(ω).
Pronormal subgroups of a direct product of groups
2009
[EN] We give criteria to characterize abnormal, pronormal and locally pronormal subgroups of a direct product of two finite groups A×B, under hypotheses of solvability for at least one of the factors, either A or B.
On the abnormal structure of finite groups
2014
We study finite groups in which every maximal subgroup is supersoluble or normal. Our results answer some questions arising from papers of Asaad and Rose.
Products of groups and group classes
1994
Letχ be a Schunck class, and let the finite groupG=AB=BC=AC be the product of two nilpotent subgroupsA andB andχ-subgroupC. If for every common prime divisorp of the orders ofA andB the cyclic group of orderp is anχ-group, thenG is anχ-group. This generalizes earlier results of O. Kegel and F. Peterson. Some related results for groups of the formG=AB=AK=BK, whereK is a nilpotent normal subgroup ofG andA andB areχ-groups for some saturated formationχ, are also proved.
