Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy is associated with increased glycemic variability driven by hyperglycemia rather than hypoglycemia in patients with diabetes by Hoda, Gad

“…ResultsOf the 40 participants (20 T1DM and 20 T2DM) (aged 40.70 ± 13.73 years, diabetes duration 14.43 ± 7.35 years, HbA1c 8.85 ± 1.70%), 23 (57.5%) had CAN. Despite a lower coefficient of variation (CV) (31.26 ± 11.87 vs. 40.33 ± 11.03, P = 0.018), they had a higher CONGA (8.42 ± 2.58 vs. 6.68 ± 1.88, P = 0.024) with a lower median LBGI (1.60 (range: 0.20–3.50) vs. 4.90 (range: 3.20–7.40), P = 0.010) and percentage median time spent in hypoglycemia (4 (range:4–13) vs. 1 (range:0–5), P = 0.008), compared to those without CAN. …”

Coevolving residues distant from the ligand binding site are involved in GAF domain function by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…Here, we combine computational and experimental approaches to demonstrate that two highly coevolving residues, L267 and F295, distant from the ligand binding site, play a critical role in GAF domain allostery. Statistical Coupling Analysis (SCA) of GAF domain sequences identified these residues, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of both apo and holo forms of wild-type and mutant (L267A, F295A) PDE5 GAFa domains revealed significant changes in structural dynamics and cGMP interaction. …”

Do high energy-efficient buildings increase overheating risk in cold climates? Causes and mitigation measures required under recent and future climates by Mutasim Baba, Fuad

“…While without adequate ventilation, the overheating risk in high-energy-efficient buildings can be higher than old buildings, where decreasing wall and window U-values and infiltration rate has a greater contribution to the increase of indoor temperature, while decreasing window SHGC has a lower contribution to the decrease in indoor temperature compared to the case with adequate ventilation. …”
