Trials, Jul 2023 Optimal carbohydrate intake is an important and controversial area in the nutritional management of type 2 diabetes. Some evidence indicates that reducing overall carbohydrate intake with a low- or very low-carbohydrate eating plan can improve glycemic control compared to following eating plans that involve greater carbohydrate intake. However, critical knowledge gaps currently prevent clear recommendations about carbohydrate intake levels.
A Pragmatic Approach to Translating Low- and Very Low-Carbohydrate Diets Into Clinical Practice for Patients With Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes
Introduction Obesity and type 2 diabetes are enduring threats to individual and public health. Dietary habits are generally recognized as key drivers of weight gain and metabolic dysfunction. Yet, the culprit macronutrients and optimal eating patterns for health are fervently debated. Within the U.S., low-fat diets have been the prevailing public health recommendation for chronic disease prevention and management since the 1980s (1).
The C-Files: Art & Interfaces
Building a Free-Draw interface in React with React Konva I recently built a React app that features canvas. For any reader who is not familiar, a “canvas” is a type of HTML element that is extremely useful for rendering graphics and animations. Its corresponding API makes it possible for users to create a wide variety of images, and there are many existing libraries out there that simplify and build features on top of the core API.
McEnhancer: predicting gene expression via semi-supervised assignment of enhancers to target genes
In order to identify regions of enriched accessibility in DNaseI, referred to as DNaseI hypersensitive sites (DHSs), peaks were called on raw data. DNaseI raw data for two replicates of Drosophila melanogaster embryos at 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 hours, corresponding to stages 5, 9, 10, 11, and 14 in embryogenic development was downloaded, SRP002474 [37]. Bowtie2 was used to map raw data to the Drosophila melanogaster genome (dm3) [57].
