    Autonomic neuropathy and survival in diabetes mellitus: effects of pancreas transplantation (1991)
    Springer
    Diabetologia 34 (1991), S. S108 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0428
    Keywords: Autonomic neuropathy ; Cardiorespiratory reflex ; Diabetic neuropathy ; Mortality
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Cardiorespiratory reflexes were studied during slow breathing and a Valsalva maneuver in 232 Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic subjects. At 1 to 7 years follow-up, death occurred in 23.4% of 175 patients with abnormal reflexes and in 3.5% of 57 patients with normal reflexes. The mortality rates of diabetic subjects with abnormal reflexes were 17% at 2.5 years, 33% at 5 years and 40% at 7 years, significantly higher than for patients with normal reflexes (4.6%, 4.6% and 13.8%). Among patients with abnormal reflexes, patients with a functioning pancreas transplantation had better survival rates than patients with a failed transplantation, and in long-term follow-up better than patients without transplantation. A functioning transplantation prevented the progressive decline of cardiorespiratory reflex function that occurred over time in control patients.

    Peripheral neurology of the diabetic Chinese hamster (1982)
    Springer
    Diabetologia 23 (1982), S. 445-451 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0428
    Keywords: Diabetes ; Chinese hamster ; conduction velocity ; peripheral neuropathy ; nerve fibre morphology
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Genetically diabetic Chinese hamsters were examined anatomically and physiologically for evidence of peripheral neuropathy. Control animals were from non-diabetic strains. Conduction velocities in both motor and sensory components of the hind limb nerves were reduced 16–22% in diabetic compared with control hamsters. However, there was no reduction in nerve fibre diameters or other signs of abnormal morphology that could be correlated with these physiological effects. It is concluded that the diabetic hamster is useful as a model of human diabetic peripheral neuropathy, but the analogy is not precise. The neuropathy of moderately diabetic hamsters is generally less severe than human diabetic neuropathy in its clinical stages.

    A laser-interferometric dilatometer for thermal-expansion measurements of composites (1986)
    Springer
    Experimental mechanics 26 (1986), S. 1-6 
    Details
    ISSN: 1741-2765
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Production Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, Traffic Engineering, Precision Mechanics
    Notes: Abstract A high-precision, Fizeau-type laser-interferometric dilatometer system has been developed for low-expansion composite materials. The strain resolution is about one microstrain. The system is automated to operate over a large temperature range and record data during the test. A technique has been developed to reduce the data in real time. The dilatometer system is described and thermal-expansion measurements for several fiber-reinforced and particle-filled composites are presented.
