MICROVASCULAR CHANGES AND DIABETIC RETINOPATHY AND NEPHROPATHY PROGRESSION IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES MELLITUS

MICROVASCULAR CHANGES AND DIABETIC RETINOPATHY AND NEPHROPATHY PROGRESSION IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES MELLITUS

Background: We established that the age at inception of T1DM significantly impacts the long-term risk of developing proliferative retinopathy in affected children and adolescents.Patients with T1DM, diagnosed before the age of 15 are at a significantly higher risk than children diagnosed at age 15 and older.For instance, several studies show change

Closed-form critical response of elastic-plastic shear building with viscous damper under pseudo-double impulse for simulating resonant response under near-fault fling-step motion

A set of approximate closed-form solutions of the maximum interstory drifts under the critical pseudo-double impulse (PDI) is derived for non-proportionally damped multi-story shear building models with bilinear hysteresis.The use of PDI and the closed-form solutions efficiently and accurately enable the capture of the critical responses of elastic
