Hopkins, Iryna S. Butsky, Sarah Wellons, N. Nicole Sanchez, Cameron Hummels, Yue Samuel Lu, Dušan Kereš, Christopher C. Hayward

“…In doing so, we generally verify the predictions of “calorimeter” theories at high FIR luminosities ( L _60 _μ _m  ≳ 10 ^9.5 L _⊙ ) and at low FIR luminosities ( L _60 _μ _m ≲ 10 ^9.5 L _⊙ ), the so-called “conspiracy” of increasing UV radiation escape in tandem with increasing CRe escape, and find that the global FRC is insensitive to orders-of-magnitude locally variable CR transport coefficients. …”

Fasting Plasma Glucose Indicates Reversibility of the Acute Insulin Response after Short-Term Intensive Insulin Therapy in Patients with Various Duration of Type 2 Diabetes by Liehua Liu, Siyue Yang, Jianbin Liu, Hai Li, Juan Liu, Xiaopei Cao, Haipeng Xiao, Yanbing Li

“…In multivariate analyses, FPG after SIIT and baseline fasting C peptide were independent indicators of both AIR after the therapy and ∆AIR; HDL-C after the therapy also predicted AIR after the therapy. We concluded that recovery of the AIR could be obtained in T2DM patients of varying disease duration by SIIT and it could be conveniently estimated using posttreatment fasting plasma glucose and other fasting indicators.…”
