  1. 1. Glucose Sensing and Differentiating Systems with Organic Electrochemical Neurons : A Future Outlook for Type 2 Diabetes

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Sophie Ziske; [2024]
    Keywords : organic electronics; organic electrochemical neuron; organic electrochemical transistor; type 2 diabetes; closed-loop system; Axon-Hillock neuron; astable multivibrator; vagus nerve stimulation; glucose sensing and differentiation; applied physics; biomedical engineering; electronics;

    Abstract : In recent years great advances in the field of biomedical engineering and organic electronics have been achieved. One promising application would be the regulation of blood glucose concentration in type 2 diabetes patients. This application would eliminate medication and would improve the standard of life.

  3. 2. An exploration of the relationship between skeletal muscle mass and glucose intolerance in healthy young adults

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Philip Richard Evans; [2023]
    Keywords : Type 2 diabetes mellitus; fasting plasma glucose; impaired fasting glucose; longitudinal trajectory; incidence rate; Oralt glukostoleranstest; antropometriska mätningar; muskelmassa; typ 2 diabetes; glukosintolerans;

    Abstract : Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a globally prevalent disease anticipated to double from 500 million diagnosed cases in 2021 to more than one billion by 2050. The investigation of the potentially protective effects of skeletal muscle mass on glucose intolerance may lead to the development of more precise screening protocols. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploring a unique pocket in Galectin-8N by the synthesis of D-galactoside-based benzimidazole inhibitors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Sid Bartold; [2023]
    Keywords : organic chemistry; synthesis; gal; gal-8; gal-8N; galectin; galectin-8; galectin-8N; inhibitor; drug development; benzimidazole; galactoside; carbohydrate; carbohydrate chemistry; Suzuki-coupling; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Galectins are a family of glycan-binding proteins where galectin-8 is a part of the subgroup known as tandem-repeat type galectins. Galectin-8 is composed of two homologous CRDs, one N- and one C-terminal CRD. As it stands now, galectin-8N has been found to bind to a larger number of glycans than galectin-8C. READ MORE

  5. 4. Insulin pumps and the health of Type 1 Diabetes patients

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Oskar Hellquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Insulin Therapy; Health Economics; Diabetes; Insulin Pump;

    Abstract : Approximately 5 percent of the Swedish population is diagnosed with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. A growing treatment method for type 1 patients is to supply the body with insulin using a pump. READ MORE

  6. 5. Hic2 overexpression increase of cell reprogramming efficiency- a computational study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Paulina Ibek; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Since stem cells have many applications in medicine and can be used for treating e.g. cancer and diabetes, finding efficient methods for producing them is a relevant area of research. READ MORE
