Hemoglobin A1C: The HbA1C test is a diagnostic test used to check a patient’s glycaemic level (Table 1). The value shown is a two to three months average of a patient’s glycaemic level. It is useful and effective in evaluating patients with diabetes or at risk of diabetes complications...
Firstly, sufficient information on important confounding factors such as dietary habits, fasting time, physical activity, age at first full-term pregnancy, breast density, and other potential factors could not be collected, which may have influenced the results. Secondly, information on whether all ...
Purpose. High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) has been used as a biomarker to assess the risk of cardiovascular accidents (CVA) and to measure general inflammation in the body. This study inv...
Our group has utilized a macaque model to study the metabolic effects of consumption of a calorically-dense, Western-style diet (WSD; 36.3% fat) during pregnancy. Here, our objective was to characterize the effects of WSD and obesity, alone and together, on maternal glucose tolerance and ...

a chi-square association test. The TIR, TAR, and TUR were analyzed by a negative binominal Poisson regression. When log transformation was not possible given the zero-inflation, a zero-inflated negative binomial regression was used to analyze the data. The significance level was set atp< 0.05...
