    Several studies have shown the effectiveness of sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, for type 2 diabetes, with a hypoglycemic effect being demonstrated both when it is administered alone or in combination with other oral antidiabetic agents. However, there are few reports...

    Angiology (2013) PMID 23650645

    We assessed the incidence and the prognostic role for early death of acute insulin resistance (by means of homeostatic model assessment [HOMA] index) in 1350 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) consecutively admitted to our intensive cardiac care unit (ICCU). The incidence of HOMA positivity...

  3. Isotropic Gaussian random fields on the sphere: regularity, fast simulation, and stochastic partial differential equations
    Annika Lang and Christoph Schwab

    arXiv:1305.1170 [math.PR] 6 May 2013

    Isotropic Gaussian random fields on the sphere are characterized by Karhunen-Lo\`eve expansions with respect to the spherical harmonic functions and the angular power spectrum. The smoothness of the covariance is connected to the decay of the angular power spectrum and the relation to sample H\"old...
