Interpreting HbA1c in Presence of Deficiency Anemias     

Seema Bhargava  Khageshwar Mahato  Anjali Manocha  Mamta Kankra  Parul Singla  Anisha Sharma  Ashok Ahirwar  Vinod Gupta  Salamma Jose 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2021,36(3):360

HbA1c is used extensively for the diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus. It constitutes 80% of glycated HbA1(Glycated haemoglobin(GHb)A), and depends upon blood glucose and RBC life span. RBC life span varies with anemia, leading to a consequent alteration in the HbA1c value irrespective of the circulating blood glucose concentration. But to the best of our knowledge no Hb cut offs have been derived for appropriate interpretation of HbA1c. The prevalence of anemia in Indian population is nearly 40% as per its definition by WHO—Hb < 12 g/dL in females and < 13 g/dL in males—with most cases attributable to nutritional deficiencies. Hence, we aimed to identify Hb cut-off for accurate interpretation of HbA_1c in presence of deficiency anemias. Partial correlation between random blood glucose (RBG) and HbA_1c was studied in 1312 subjects, 470 of whom had deficiency-related anemia]. The data was adjusted for age, sex and Hb. Partial correlation between RBG and HbA1c was highly significant (p < 0.0001) till Hb of 8.1 gm/dL. Significance reduced to p = 0.003 and p = 0.006 as the cut off of Hb reduced to 7.1 gm/dL and 5.0 gm/dL, respectively, but was not lost. Hence, caution in interpretation of HbA_1c is not required till an Hb of 5 g/dL.  相似文献

Counting forumula for 3 × 3 generalized magic squares     

Chanchal Kumar  Pavinder Singh  Ashok Kumar 《Resonance》2010,15(8):733-736

The aim of this article is to explicitly compute the number of generalized magic squares of order 3. Counting functions for (generalized) magic squares of order n with fixed line sum r is known to be a polynomial function in r over ? of degree (n?1)². For higher values of n, it is quite difficult to explicitly write down such counting functions.  相似文献   

LWT–DSR based new robust framework for watermark extraction under intentional attack conditions     

Vivek Singh Verma  Rajib Kumar Jha 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2017,354(14):6422-6449

This paper proposes a new watermarking approach using dynamic stochastic resonance (DSR) based tuning operation to extract the watermark logo from the watermarked image that has undergone different intentional and signal processing attacks. This method is intended to provide remedies from the shortcomings of the technique proposed by Lin et al. (2008), and invalidates the effect of intentional attacks recently designed by Meerwald et al. (2009). The algorithm incorporates three level image decomposition using lifting wavelet transform (LWT) and low-pass subband is utilized for data hiding purpose. Watermark bits are embedded into the blocks of non-overlapped wavelet coefficients of the cover image by quantizing the two maximum coefficients of the corresponding block. In watermark extraction process, the DSR is applied by performing the tuning operation on coefficient blocks of attacked watermarked image. It is a parameter dependent approach that enhances the performance of watermark extraction, where the parameters of DSR inherently depend on the image properties such as standard deviation or variance. As far as security is concerned, the randomization of wavelet coefficients, blocks, and watermark bits helps the framework to be more secure. The proposed technique is also examined against multiple watermarking attack and successfully proves its authenticity and ownership. Comparison of the proposed technique with recent techniques shows remarkable improvement in terms of robustness and security against various intentional, signal processing, and geometrical attacks.  相似文献   

Fibrinogen,Lp(a), Microalbuminuria and Left Ventricular Mass Index: Cardiovascular Disease Risk factors in Diabetes     

Satinder Kaur  Parminder Singh  Verma Indu  Gaurav Singla 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2012,27(1):94-96

The present work was undertaken to study interrelation of Fibrinogen, Lp(a) and LVMI in Type II diabetes patients with or without nephropathy. 100 Type II Diabetic patients attending OPD/IPD of DMC&H, Ludhiana were included. They were divided in two groups. Group I: 50 patients without microalbuminuria (MAU). Group II: 50 patients with MAU. Fibrinogen (Clauss method), Lp(a) and MAU were estimated on Multichannel Autoanalyzer Hitachi-911 (Roche). LVMI was estimated by echocardiography using formula of Devereux and Reicheck. Type II diabetes patients with MAU had significantly raised levels of Fibrinogen, Lp(a), and LVMI as compared to normoalbuminuric diabetics (P < 0.01). Group II patients had positive correlation between Lp(a) and LVMI but no relation between Fibrinogen and LVMI. MAU, marker of microangiopathy, is associated with higher Fibrinogen and Lp(a) levels. This becomes basis of increase cardiovascular risk as demonstrated by higher mean LVMI in Group II patients.  相似文献

We begin by briefly motivating the idea of a manifold and then discuss the embedding theorems of Whitney and Nash that allow us to view these objects inside appropriately large Euclidean spaces.  相似文献   

A tribute to ‘unsung teachers’: teachers’ influences on students enrolling in STEM programs with the intent of entering STEM careers     

Cheryl J. Craig  Paige Evans  Rakesh Verma  Donna Stokes  Jing Li 《欧洲师范教育杂志》2019,42(3):335-358

This narrative inquiry examines teachers’ influences on undergraduate and graduate students who enrolled in STEM programs and intended to enter STEM careers. Three National Science Foundation (NSF) scholarship grants sat in the backdrop. Narrative exemplars were crafted using the interpretative tools of broadening, burrowing, storying and restorying, fictionalisation and serial interpretation. Three diverse students’ narratives constituted the science education cases: one from teacher education, another arising from cyber technology and a third involving cyber security. The influence of the university students’ former teachers cohered around five themes: 1) same program-different narratives, 2) in loco parentis, 3) counter stories, 4) learning in small moments, and 5) the importance of the liberal arts in STEM education. The students’ narratives form instructive models for their siblings and other students pursuing STEM degrees and careers. Most importantly, the multiperspectival stories of experiences capture the far-reaching impact of ‘unsung teachers’ whose long-term influence is greatly underestimated by the public.  相似文献
