Diabetes is a major cause of premature mortality and associated with devastating complications especially if managed poorly. Although diabetes care is improving in England and Wales, recent audit data suggests care remains imperfect with wide geographical variations in quality. Diabetes care is expensive with a sizeable amount of available expenditure used for treating the complications of diabetes. A target driven, long-term, multifactorial intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity. The alphabet strategy is a novel approach to effective diabetes care provision, aiming to address patient education and empowerment, provide consistent comprehensive care delivered in a timely fashion, and allowing multidisciplinary team work.展开更多

In this paper, we consider the alphabet overlap graph G(k, d, s): the vertex set V = {v|v = (v1...vk); vi ∈ {1,2,... ,d}, i = 1,2,... ,k}; they are distinct and two vertices u = (ul...uk) and v = (vl... vk) are adjacent if and only if us+i = vi or vs+i = ui (i = 1,2,...,k - s). In particular, when s = 1, G(k,d,s) is just an undirected de Bruijn graph. First, we give a formula to calculate the vertex degree of G(k, d, s). Then, we use the corollary of Menger's theorem to prove that the connectivity of G(k, d, s) is 2d^s - 2d^2s-k for s ≥ k/2.展开更多

The server is based on the loop-and-lock theory for structural organisation of natural proteins. We describe this web server, the algorithms for the decomposition of a 3D protein into loops and the results of scientific investigations into a structural “alphabet” of loops and locks.展开更多

This novel English Phonetic Alphabet was specially designed in line with the characteristics of radio telephone frequency communication in China and pronunciation habit and English level of most of Chinese people;which not only can improve the voice quality and guarantee accurate transfer of information, but also is integrated with the pronunciation characteristics of Chinese language, with the functions to avoid the uncommon, easily confusing and difficultly pronouncing English words, and efficiently improve the wireless communication efficiency.展开更多
