Abstract:

Professional development is more than marking an attendance register at a workshop. Professional development is a reflective process of continuous self-development that should inform the very essence of any learning context. This dissertation builds on how teachers experience school-initiated type-2 teacher professional development in secondary public schools and how their experiences may contribute to the work in the field of teacher professional development and assessment. Although a number of studies have examined teachers’ comprehension of the Continuous Professional Development framework

Abstract:

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) results from an insulin resistance condition that affects mainly adipose and skeletal muscle tissues by altering their glucose uptake and leading to major clinical complications. Moreover, it is known that these tissues interact each other with a negative cross-talk that worsen the pathology. Due to its clinical complexity, T2D would require patient-specific treatment. In this context it will be extremely helpful to have in vitro human tissue-based assays, able to provide biological responses representative of the in vivo patient-specific pathology.

Abstract:

Hyperglycaemia stimulates a variety of biochemical abnormalities. The area of particular interest in this study is the influence of non-enzymatic glycation of proteins on iron homeostasis, and particularly on non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) and its possible relation to atherogenesis in both Type 2 diabetic and obese non diabetic subjects. The link between non-enzymatic glycation of proteins and iron homeostasis, and development of macrovascular disease may be mechanistically different in Type 2 diabetic and obese non diabetic subjects due to a difference in the protein glycation pattern.

Abstract:

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a multi-factorial disease due to metabolic disorder with injuries in glucose homeostasis and body’s glucose uptake. The complexity of this disease led to the use of different classes of drugs acting with different mechanisms and targets and with effects that often change between patients. The number of people in the world with diagnosed T2DM is constantly increasing and consequently the cost for healthcare. Nowadays, a defined cure for T2DM patients has been not clearly identified. In the study of diabetes, animal models are one of the most popular syste

Abstract:

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) belongs to the diseases with hereditary predisposition, so both genetic and environmental factors influence its development. Recent studies showed, that the bone tissue regulates systemic glucose metabolism through the secretion of undercarboxylated osteocalcin (uOCN) into the systemic circulation. It is known, that uOCN binds to the GPRC6A-receptor and, therefore, stimulates insulin expression and secretion in β-cells, as well as increases muscles, liver and adipose tissue sensitivity for insulin. Thus, the thymine to cytosine transition in OCN gene (BGLAP) pro

Abstract:

Diet induced obesity and Type 2 diabetes affect an alarming number of people in the world. Patients exhibit a number of associated co-morbidities that require treatment and reduce life expectancy. The development of Type 2 diabetes results from a chronic disruption of glucose homeostasis as a consequence of environmental and genetic factors. The regulation of hypothalamic metabolic signalling is understood to be critical to the dynamic and long-term maintenance of glucose homeostasis by virtue of its influence on peripheral effectors (pancreas, liver, muscle and fat).

Moreover, CVD is considered the leading cause of morbidity and premature mortality in type 2 diabetic patients.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been studied for decades. Many risk factors of T2D have been identified, but few studies were designed to investigate the pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) risk factors preceding the onset of T2D. Moreover, although the disease progression of T2D has received considerable attention, little is known about the disease development of T2D. It is important to understand the temporal changes of the risk factors of glucose and insulin kinetics during the development of T2D for a better understanding of the etiology of T2D.

Background: Nowadays, the attention of scientists is focused on the systemic energy metabolism regulation by skeleton.

Schizophrenia is a chronic psychotic illness affecting ~21 million people globally. Currently available antipsychotic agents act through a dopamine D2 receptor mechanism, and produce extrapyramidal or metabolic side effects. Hence, there is a need for novel targets and agents.

A long-term goal of this project is to synthesize bivalent ligands where a 5-HT2A receptor antagonist is tethered to an mGlu2 PAM via

Insulin resistance, a key risk factor for type 2 diabetes, can be defined as when cells fail to respond effectively to insulin. In striated muscle and fat, this manifests as impaired insulin-stimulated glucose uptake due to reduced plasma membrane insertion of the glucose transporter GLUT4. In cell culture models, insulin resistance induced by chronic exposure to insulin, endothelin-1 or glucosamine, is correlated with reduced immunoreactivity of the lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) in plasma membrane sheets.

Lifestyle diseases, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), arerelated to overweight in the western world. Although lower occurrence of overweight hasbeen documented in China compared to western countries, an increase in such lifestylediseases has been observed during the last decades. The aim of this thesis was to study therelationship between lifestyle and the development of T2D and CVDs in the Chinesepopulation. The results may provide further knowledge concerning lifestyle diseases and maytherefore contribute to reduce disease development in the future. The experi

Abstract:

Background: Emotional support in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is limited, however online-based programmes can be used as supplements for the emotional management of this condition. This research aimed to explore the emotional impact of T2DM and aimed to design a prototype of an evidence- and theory-based online programme to improve the emotional management of T2DM, especially well-being and diabetes-related distress. Methods: This thesis adopted a user-centered approach. A review of existing literature was undertaken to determine current concepts of well-being, diabetes-related distress (DRD) and st

Abstract:

Background Individualised dietary advice is essential for management of Type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In the DK dietary advice is often delivered by health professionals with limited nutrition training. It is not clear which dietary changes are most beneficial for adults with T2DM. Tools are needed to assist in providing individualised dietary advice. The aim of this thesis was to develop a brief dietary assessment tool, for use in the DK, for people with T2DM. Methods A questionnaire was developed. Item development was infonned by analysis of food diaries from people with T2DM who took part in a di

Abstract:

This research was conducted in the area of Clinical and Health Psychology. The study involved the development and evaluation of a novel, web-based program aimed to improve Type 2 diabetes self-management and mood. The program was developed as an original technological intervention aimed to improve access to support for rural and remote communities, and is currently being trialled across Australia with a larger sample size. The researcher aims to continue research into the field of clinical psychology, and in particular is interested in working on further interventions to support those with com

Abstract:

Pharmacometric modelling is widely used in many aspects related to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), for instance in the anti-diabetes drug development, and in quantifying the disease progression of T2DM. The aim of this thesis were to improve the design of early phase anti-diabetes drug development studies with the focus on the power to identify mechanism of drug action (MoA), and to characterize and quantify the progression from prediabetes to overt diabetes, both the natural progression and the progression with diet and exercise interventions, using pharmacometrics modelling.
