    摘要: The invention relates to novel methods of informing a medical decision by determining a hormone or drug concentration in a portal vein or hepatic sinusoid of a mammal. The invention also relates to methods of determining hormone or drug concentration in the portal vein or hepatic sinusoids. Further the invention relates to methods of utilizing these concentrations to calculate infusion rates for hormone or drugs in order to achieve a desired portal vein or hepatic sinusoid concentration of such a hormone or drug.

    摘要: In general this invention can be viewed as encompassing novel methods of treating diabetes and insulin resistance. The inventors have made the discovery that increasing secretion of endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in combination with inhibiting the activity of dipeptidyl peptidase I (DPP-IV) can have a significant impact on hyperglycemia and insulin secretion in subjects suffering from diabetes and/or insulin resistance. Further the invention encompasses methods of identifying subjects having elevated secretion of GLP-1, methods of assessing sensitivity to a GLP-1 secretagogue, and methods of treating diabetes in these subjects by administering a GLP-1 secretagogue to alleviate at least one symptom of diabetes.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for assessing metabolic substrate utilization are described. In one embodiment, a processor-readable medium includes code to receive data indicative of a plasma glucose concentration, a plasma free fatty acid concentration, and a respiratory quotient of a subject. The processor-readable medium also includes code to calculate, based on the data, respective values of a set of metabolic parameters. The set of metabolic parameters includes a first metabolic parameter and a second metabolic parameter. The value of the first metabolic parameter is indicative of whether the subject has a predisposition towards oxidation of a first type of metabolic substrate or a second type of metabolic substrate, and the value of the second metabolic parameter is indicative of the subject's responsiveness to a change in availability of the first type of metabolic substrate or the second type of metabolic substrate.

    摘要: The invention encompasses methods, including computer-implemented methods, of defining a virtual patient population and mapping the virtual patient population to a population of real patients. The invention utilizes virtual measures from one or more virtual patients, and data representative of multiple real subjects in a sample population, such as data collected from patients in a clinical trial or epidemiological study of a real population. The invention includes evaluating the similarity between the virtual patients and the real subjects, and assigning prevalences to the virtual patients based on the evaluation. The similarity can be assessed using some or all of the virtual measures of the virtual patients and some or all of the data obtained for the real subjects. Any of various goodness-of-fit measures can be used to evaluate the similarity or to help identify prevalences. The virtual patient population is defined as the virtual patients according to their respective prevalences.
