    Abstract The introduction of insulin in the treatment of juvenile-onset, now type 1, diabetes mellitus transformed a rapidly fatal disease into a chronic degenerative one. During the insulin-treatment era, long-term microvascular and cardiovascular complications proved to be the bane of existence for people with type 1 diabetes, leading to blindness, kidney failure, amputations, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature mortality. The nascent understanding of the link between non-physiologically regulated glucose levels and these complications led to the development of new treatment tools in the 1970s and 1980s that facilitated the delivery of insulin to achieve glucose levels closer to non-diabetic levels. These therapeutic advances set the stage for definitive testing of the glucose hypothesis. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT), supported by the National Institute of Diabetes Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Institutes of Health (NIH), definitively established the benefits and risks of intensive therapy that substantially lowered mean blood glucose levels, measured by HbA

    Abstract Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are exposed to chronic systemic inflammation and are at risk for secondary malignancies. Here we review the literature on the risk of myeloid neoplasms (MN) in IBD and present the disease profiles of patients at a single institution with IBD who later developed MN, comparing them to those in the literature. No IBD characteristic was found to associate with MN disease severity, including the previously-identified association between MNs and thiopurine exposure. Of the somatic mutations identified in out cohort's MN, mutations in

    Abstract Exposure to excessive heat can lead to adverse health outcomes in both healthy and vulnerable individuals. This study examines the spatiotemporal variability of exposure to severe heat at the sub-neighborhood scale using temperature and relative humidity measurements of a wireless distributed sensor network (WDSN). First, we demonstrate a multi-sensor calibration scheme for the temperature and the relative humidity sensors. Next, exposure to heat was calculated using the heat index (HI) scale, which enables linking exposure to HI and heat-related health risks. We noticed repeated exposures to excessive heat above the safe threshold for about 8 h per day throughout July–August, 2015, in Haifa, Israel. Persistent exposure to such conditions is unhealthy. The areas that experienced high HI were scattered across the study area, with the HI showing spatiotemporal variability. In general, in some microenvironments, the HI peaked earlier during the day than in other microenvironments. This was attributed to variability in urban physical drivers, which were found to be good predictors of the morning HI variability buildup but less so of the HI variability in the afternoon. Our results are consistent with summer HI occurrence in the study area in the past 20 years. Since exposure to excessive heat in the east Mediterranean is expected to increase in the future due to climate changes, it may result in a grave health toll.
