Abstract

BackgroundPatients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (T2D) experience increased morbidity, increased mortality, and higher cost of care. Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is a critical component of diabetes self-management with established diabetes outcome benefits. Technological advancements in blood glucose meters, including cellular-connected devices that automatically upload SMBG data to secure cloud-based databases, allow for improved sharing and monitoring of SMBG data. Real-time monitoring of SMBG data presents opportunities to provide timely support to patients that is responsive to abnormal SMBG recordings. Such diabetes remote monitoring programs can provide patients with poorly controlled T2D additional support needed to improve critical outcomes. ObjectiveTo evaluate 6 months of a diabetes remote monitoring program facilitated by cellular-connected glucose meter, access to a diabetes coach, and support responsive to abnormal blood glucose recordings greater than 400 mg/dL or below 50 mg/dL in adults with poorly controlled T2D. MethodsPatients (N=119) receiving care at a diabetes center of excellence participated in a two-arm, 12-month randomized crossover study. The intervention included a cellular-connected glucose meter and phone-based diabetes coaching provided by Livongo Health. The coach answered questions, assisted in goal setting, and provided support in response to abnormal glucose levels. One group received the intervention for 6 months before returning to usual care (IV/UC). The other group received usual care before enrolling in the intervention (UC/IV) for 6 months. Change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was the primary outcome, and change in treatment satisfaction was the secondary outcome. ResultsImprovements in mean HbA1c were seen in both groups during the first 6 months (IV/UC −1.1%, SD 1.5 vs UC/IV −0.8%, SD 1.5; P

9. German Idealism, Marxism, and Lukács’ Concept of Dialectical Ontology

Abstract

I explore the roots of ontological thinking in the late thought of Georg Lukács via the development of the nature of praxis in German Idealism and the thought of Marx. I contend that the thesis of spontaneous, self-creation as well as social relatedness are both core themes in German Idealism that achieve definitive form in Marx’s thought. In effect, I argue that the human capacities for relatedness and the formation of relations with others paired with the teleological structure of human practical agency constitute a crucial ontological ground for critical theory. It is this that Lukács focuses on in his later ontological writings and which can be used to re-orient contemporary critical theory and critical philosophy which has been dominated by post-metaphysical and neo-Idealist currents in recent decades.

23. Kinetic Insights into Bridge Cleavage Pathways in Periodic Mesoporous Organosilicas

Abstract

Bridging functionalities in periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) enable new functionalities for a wide range of applications. Bridge cleavage is frequently observed during anneals required to form porous structures, yet the mechanism of these bridge cleavages has not been completely resolved. Here, we reveal these chemical transformations and their kinetic pathways on sub-millisecond timescales induced by laser heating. By varying anneal times and temperatures, the transformation dynamics of bridge cleavage and structural transformations, and their activation energies, are determined. The structural relaxation time for individual reactions and their effective local heating time are determined and compared, and results directly demonstrate the manipulation of different molecules through kinetic control of the sequence of reactions. By isolating and understanding the earliest stage of structural transformations, this study identifies the kinetic principles for new synthesis and post-processing routes to control individual molecules and reactions in PMOs and other material systems with multi-functionalities.

43. Beyond Criticism of Ethics Review Boards: Strategies for Engaging Research Communities and Enhancing Ethical Review Processes

Author

Abstract

A growing body of literature critical of ethics review boards has drawn attention to the processes used to determine the ethical merit of research. Citing criticism on the bureaucratic nature of ethics review processes, this literature provides a useful provocation for (re)considering how the ethics review might be enacted. Much of this criticism focuses on how ethics review boards "deliberate," with particular attention given to the lack of transparency and opportunities for researcher recourse that characterise ethics review processes. Centered specifically on the conduct of ethics review boards convened within university settings, this paper draws on these inherent criticisms to consider the ways that ethics review boards might enact more communicative and deliberative practices. Outlining a set of principles against which ethics review boards might establish strategies for engaging with researchers and research communities, this paper draws attention to how "Deliberative communication," "Engagement with researchers" and the "Distribution of responsibility" for the ethics review might be enacted in the day-to-day practice of the university human ethics review board. This paper develops these themes via a conceptual lens derived from Habermas' (The theory of communicative action. Volume 1: Reason and the rationalization of society, 1984) articulation of 'communicative action' and Fraser's (Social Text, 25(26), 56-80, 1990) consideration of 'strong publics' to cast consideration of the role that human ethics review boards might play in supporting university research cultures. "Deliberative communication," "Engagement with researchers" and the "Distribution of responsibility" provide useful conceptual prompts for considering how ethics review boards might undertake their work.
