Self-care behaviors, self-efficacy, and social support effect on the glycemic control of patients newly diagnosed with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus

The purpose of this study was to explore the glycemic control and influencing factors in outpatients newly diagnosed with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). By purposeful sampling, data were collected from 130 outpatients with NIDDM at one medical center in Kaohsiung. The results indicated: (1) the mean value for HbA1C was 7.12%; and 63.1% of the patients belonged to moderate to well controlled group; (2) male patient's HbA1C value was significantly lower than female patient's; patients with no religious belief also had a lower HbA1C value than patients with a religious background; (3) there were strongly negative correlations between self-care behaviors, social support, and self-efficacy and HbA1C; (4) using a multiple stepwise regression analysis, religious belief and self-care behaviors were found to explain 10.9% variance of HbA1C level. The results of this study could be used as a reference for diabetes health education program.

A new process of fabricating inverted-staggered tri-layer thin-filmtransistors

A new method of fabricating a-Si:H TFT with etching-stop structure has been proposed. Only one plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition is required in this new method and a PH₃/H₂ plasma treatment during the deposition has been used to form the TFT contact and thus saved another plasma deposition. With this method, a TFT of 500 Å active layer has been fabricated successfully. The drain current and saturation mobility of this device is 2.4×10^-7 A and 0.1 cm²/V sec, respectively, which is comparable to the conventional fabricating method. The plasma treatment will also form an additional leakage path on the TFT top surface and increase the TFT subthreshold slope. However, a current of less than 1 pA at V_G=-2.4 V can still be obtained. The possible mechanism of the contact formation by the plasma treatment is also discussed

Input saturation and global stabilization of nonlinear systems viastate and output feedback

For multi-input multi-output nonlinear systems whose free dynamics are Lyapunov stable, the author shows how the problem of global stabilization via dynamic output feedback can be solved by using the technique of input saturation. The power of this technique is also illustrated by solving the problem of global stabilization via bounded state feedback for affine nonlinear systems with stable unforced dynamics. Analogous results are established for discrete-time nonlinear systems     

Detubularized folded O-shaped ileal bladder

Using a submucosal needle tunneling technique for ureteral implantation, detubularized folded O-shaped ileal bladders were created for seven patients in need of bladder replacement. A segment of ileum of only 300 to 400 mm in length was required. Anastomosis of the reservoir to the urethra was simply performed by tailoring the ileum to reduce tension at the anastomosis site. Follow-up periods ranged from 24 to 46 months. Excellent upper tract function and good evacuation function with minimal residual urine were demonstrated. Urodynamic studies revealed a mean bladder capacity of 367 mL, with low intra-ileobladder pressure. All patients are continent during the day. Mild enuresis was noted in three patients. No reflux was noted on follow-up voiding cystourethrography. This type of ileal bladder is simple to create and provides reliable results. The presence of a short mesentery is not a serious limiting factor.     

Robust controller with disturbance rejection for hydraulic servosystems

A controller is presented that improves the performance and reduces the sensitivity of hydraulic servo systems in the presence of parameter variations, nonlinear effects, and other disturbances. The control system has enhanced closed-loop stability and can recover from steady-state and transient error quickly and completely. It consists of a servo controller, an auxiliary controller, and a robust controller. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the validity of the controller
