Therapy with GAD in diabetes
Authors: Ludvigsson Johnny 
Published: March 2009

AbstractThe enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is of great importance for the neurotransmission in the central nervous system, and therefore of interest for treatment of pain and neurological disease. However, it is also released in pancreas although its role is not quite clear. GAD is a major auto‐antigen in the process leading to type 1 diabetes with both a clear cell‐mediated immune response to GAD and auto‐antibodies to GAD (GADA), which can be used as a predictor of diabetes. Administration of the isoform GAD65 can prevent autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells in non‐obese diabetic (NOD) mice and the subsequent need for exogenous insulin replacement. In Phase I and II studies an alum‐formulated vaccine (Diamyd) has shown to be safe, and in a dose‐finding study in Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) patients 20‐µg was given subcutaneously one month apart indicating preservation of residual insulin secretion. A double‐blind randomized Phase II trial in 70 patients (10–18 years old) with recent‐onset type 1 diabetes showed significant preservation of residual insulin secretion and a GAD‐specific immune response, both humoral and cell‐mediated, but no treatment‐related adverse events. With this promising background further studies are on their way, both intervention in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic patients, and trials to prevent the disease.

C‐peptide in the natural history of type 1 diabetes
Authors: Palmer Jerry P. 
Published: March 2009

AbstractType 1 diabetes is diagnosed when the patient's endogenous insulin secretion decreases to a level which results in hyperglycemia. After diagnosis, insulin secretion continues to decline. As a reference for clinical trials trying to preserve endogenous beta‐cell function in patients with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes, in this short review I attempt to summarize the natural history of endogenous beta‐cell function after the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes.

The influence of supplementary health insurance on switching behaviour: evidence from Swiss data
Authors: Dormont Brigitte , Geoffard Pierre‐Yves , Lamiraud Karine 
Published: March 2009

AbstractThis paper focuses on the switching behaviour of enrolees in the Swiss basic health insurance system. Even though the new Federal Law on Social Health Insurance (LAMal) was implemented in 1996 to promote competition among health insurers in basic insurance, there is limited evidence of premium convergence within cantons. This indicates that competition has not been effective so far, and reveals some inertia among consumers who seem reluctant to switch to less expensive funds. We investigate one possible barrier to switching behaviour, namely the influence of supplementary insurance. We use survey data on health plan choice (a sample of 1943 individuals whose switching behaviours were observed between 1997 and 2000) as well as administrative data relative to all insurance companies that operated in the 26 Swiss cantons between 1996 and 2005. The decision to switch and the decision to subscribe to a supplementary contract are jointly estimated.Our findings show that holding a supplementary insurance contract substantially decreases the propensity to switch. However, there is no negative impact of supplementary insurance on switching when the individual assesses his/her health as ‘very good’. Our results give empirical support to one possible mechanism through which supplementary insurance might influence switching decisions: given that subscribing to basic and supplementary contracts with two different insurers may induce some administrative costs for the subscriber, holding supplementary insurance acts as a barrier to switch if customers who consider themselves ‘bad risks’ also believe that insurers reject applications for supplementary insurance on these grounds. In comparison with previous research, our main contribution is to offer a possible explanation for consumer inertia. Our analysis illustrates how consumer choice for one's basic health plan interacts with the decision to subscribe to supplementary insurance. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Who pays attention in stated‐choice surveys?
Authors: Özdemir Semra , Mohamed Ateesha F. , Johnson F. Reed , Hauber A. Brett 
Published: March 2009

AbstractResponses of inattentive or inconsistent subjects in stated‐choice (SC) surveys can lead to imprecise or biased estimates. Several SC studies have investigated inconsistency and most of these studies dropped subjects who were inconsistent. However, none of these studies reported who is more likely to fail consistency tests. We investigated the effect of the personal characteristics and task complexity on preference inconsistency in eight different SC surveys. We found that white, higher‐income and better‐educated female subjects were less likely to fail consistency tests. Understanding the characteristics of subjects who are inattentive to the choice task may help in designing and pre‐testing instruments that work effectively for a wider range of subjects.

The impact of rural mutual health care on health status: evaluation of a social experiment in rural China
Authors: Wang Hong , Yip Winnie , Zhang Licheng , Hsiao William C. 
Published: March 2009

AbstractDespite widespread efforts to expand health insurance in developing countries, there is scant evidence as to whether doing so actually improves people's health. This paper aims to fill this gap by evaluating the impact of Rural Mutual Health Care (RMHC), a community‐based health insurance scheme, on enrollees' health outcomes. RMHC is a social experiment that was conducted in one of China's western provinces from 2003 to 2006. The RMHC experiment adopted a pre–post treatment‐control study design. This study used panel data collected in 2002, 1 year prior to the intervention, and followed up in 2005, 2 years after the intervention, both in the intervention and control sites. We measured health status using both a 5‐point Categorical Rating Scale and the EQ‐5D instruments. The estimation method used here is difference‐in‐difference combined propensity score matching. The results show that RMHC has a positive effect on the health status of participants. Among the five dimensions of EQ‐5D, RMHC significantly reduces pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression for the general population, and has a positive impact on mobility and usual activity for those over 55‐years old. Our study provides useful policy information on the development of health insurance in developing countries, and also identifies areas where further research is needed.

Independent effects of physical activity in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease #
Authors: St. George Alexis , Bauman Adrian , Johnston Amanda , Farrell Geoffrey , Chey Tien , George Jacob 
Published: March 2009

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, characterized by elevated liver enzymes, central obesity, and insulin resistance, is becoming increasingly prevalent. The effects of changes in physical activity on the metabolic profile of this group have not been reported. We assessed at 3 months the impact of a behavior change-based lifestyle intervention on physical activity and the effects of this change on the metabolic profile of people with fatty liver disease. In all, 141 participants with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease were prospectively enrolled into either a low- or moderate-intensity lifestyle intervention or to a control group. Physical activity was assessed using a validated reporting tool and physical fitness was measured using the YMCA protocol on a cycle ergometer. Individualized counseling to increase physical activity was provided. Overall, 96% of participants attended the 3-month follow-up assessment. Participants in the moderate- and low-intensity intervention groups were 9 times more likely to increase physical activity by an hour or more per week compared to controls. Patients increasing or maintaining their reported physical activity to ≥150 minutes/week, and those who increased their objective levels of fitness, had the greatest improvements in liver enzymes and other metabolic indices compared to those who were least active. This effect was independent of weight loss and was corroborated by an objective measure of fitness. There was no dose-response effect on liver enzymes with incremental increases in physical activity above 60 minutes/week. Conclusion: Lifestyle counseling interventions are effective in improving physical activity behavior. Maintaining or increasing physical activity provides health benefits for patients with fatty liver, independent of changes in weight. (Hepatology 2009.)
Spatial and temporal patterns of break‐up and ice‐jam flooding in the Mackenzie Delta, NWT
Authors: Goulding Holly L. , Prowse Terry D. , Beltaos Spyros 
Published: March 2009

AbstractThe Mackenzie Delta is covered in freshwater lakes that provide habitat for a myriad of species. The hydrology and ecology of these delta lakes are dominated by cryospheric processes, specifically spring break‐up ice jams, which typically produce the largest hydrologic event of the year. Despite the importance of ice‐induced flooding in the delta, the patterns and processes characterizing these events are poorly understood. In this paper, archived records at a dozen hydrometric stations in the delta for the period from 1974 to 2006, improved with information from remotely sensed imagery, are used to assemble a break‐up chronology for the delta, and examine the spatial and temporal patterns of break‐up flooding. Analysis of backwater level and discharge at the Mackenzie River at Arctic Red River (MARR) station are used to explain the physical rationale of the resulting patterns. Results highlight years of extensive delta flooding, and within the subset of significant flood years, two event types are identified: (1) ice‐driven events, with high backwater levels at MARR associated with high levels in the southern and eastern/western delta, and (2) discharge‐driven events, with extensive high‐water levels in the mid/outer delta and along Middle Channel, despite lower upstream peak water levels. Temporally, the break‐up initiation during ice‐ (discharge‐) driven events occurs earlier (later) than the delta average. These occur later (earlier) in the time‐series that is trending toward earlier break‐ups. The MARR station is determined to be a suitable index of delta peak water levels for continued investigation into the hydroclimatic controls on extreme hydrological events in the Mackenzie Delta.

Potential of low cost close‐range photogrammetry system in soil microtopography quantification
Authors: Abd Elbasit Mohamed A. M. , Anyoji Hisao , Yasuda Hiroshi , Yamamoto Shunichi 
Published: March 2009

AbstractSoil microtopography is a dynamic soil property which affects most soil‐surface and water interaction processes. The importance of soil microtopography has been recognized for a long time, but only limited reports are available in the literature. In this study, the potential of using consumer‐grade cameras and close‐range photogrammetry procedures to quantify soil microtopography at plot‐scale level (≤1 m2) were assessed. Five fabricated gypsum surfaces with different degrees of roughness were used to simulate the soil surface conditions with different soil aggregates. The surfaces' digital elevation model (DEM) was generated using the photogrammetry system (PHM) involving a consumer‐grade camera, and pin‐microrelief meter (PM). The DEM generated using the PHM was assessed for accuracy, roughness indices (RI), depression area percentage (DA%), depression storage capacity (DSC), and micro‐rills delineation in comparison with the PM. The accuracy was evaluated using the root mean square error (RMSE) in the x‐, y‐, and z‐directions. Visual comparison between the 3D‐visions of the DEM showed strong agreement between the DEM generated by the PHM and the PM, and between the PHM and the 2D images for the different gypsum surfaces. The average RMSE in the x‐. y‐, and z‐direction were 2·08, 1·52, and 0·82 mm for the rough surface, and 4·42, 1·65, and 3·22 mm for the smooth surface. The RIs calculated from the two methods were highly correlated. The small discrepancy between the two methods was discussed. The micro‐rills delineation was also similar for the two methods regarding the network density. The grid size did not effect the RI calculation, and has a strong influence on the DA%, DSC, and the delineated micro‐rills orders. Results suggest that a consumer‐grade camera and close‐range photogrammetry have the potential to quantify the soil microtopography. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
