Mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome, or Kawasaki disease, is an acute febrile syndrome noted predominately in children less than 10 years of age.
Epidemiology. The entity, first recognized in Japanese children, demonstrates a predilection for Japanese children or American children with a Japanese background. American cases reported to the CDC indicate that the yearly incidence of Kawasaki disease is three times higher in Asian American children than in black children and more than six times higher in Asian American children than in white children, all under the age of eight, per 100,000. The incidence of the disease is higher in boys and associated with more serious complication in males.
Pathogenesis. The causative entity of the disease is unknown, although an infectious agent is suspected. There is no evidence that the disease is transmissible from person to person. Rickettsia-like bodies have been found in the tissues of some patients, although serologic tests have been negative for Rickettsia.
Clinical Manifestations. The disease is characterized by an early presentation of oropharyngeal inflammation, septic appearance with fever, and cervical adenitis. The appearance of a generalized rash with desquamation occurring over the trunk, with increased cervical adenopathy, follows the early signs. Coronary artery aneurysms and other cardiovascular complications, including coronary thrombosis, myocarditis, pericar-dial effusions, dysrhythmias, and mitral valve disease, may occur. Aneurysm development may occur in up to 20% of patients.
Diagnosis. Clinical manifestations noted above comprise the predominant criteria required for diagnosis in the absence of another known disease process. A thrombocytosis with elevated peripheral white cell count are associated laboratory findings.
Treatment. The administration of high-dose intravenous gamma globulin plus aspirin appears effective in preventing coronary artery aneurysm formation. This therapy has not been completely effective in eliminating all cardiovascular abnormalities, particularly those involving the coronary arteries.
Please see Chapter 9 for a more detailed discussion of Kawasaki disease.

I didn't get started on one of my regular puzzles today. I then remembered that I had this one little crazy puzzle with only 100 pieces. It's not a big puzzle, but it's an insane one. You'll see when I post it below! The pieces were big, but the pattern. Yikes!
It's been a long day. What have I done? Nothing! lol . It's been a long day of just vegging out at home. I found The Facts of Life streaming and I've been watching it, a few episodes a day all this week. Today, I binge watched a bunch of episodes. I loved this show back in the day, and it is just as good as I remember. The story lines are still relevant today. I am enjoying watching it from the beginning.
I did get all of November and most of December set up in my bullet journal. I only need to make the December habit tracker page and add the Christmas light washi that I'm getting next week. For November, I did a NaNo/Thanksgiving theme for my habit tracker page. I got all the weeklies done. I need to add the washi to the weeklies for December and it will be done. Well, I need to do the habit tracker. I want to wait until my washi comes to see how I'm going to use it on the habit tracker page.

'The Most Important Thing during a Time of Crisis is to Give People an Opportunity to Learn'
In an interview with RBC, Yaroslav Kuzminov, Rector of the Higher School of Economics, speaks about the problems facing Russia's economy, the Strategy 2020, the status of higher education and about the areas worth developing.
— The first question for you, as the leader of a Russian institution of higher education focusing on economics and the co-author of the Strategy 2020: when will it be possible to expect economic growth to be restored in Russia?
— In looking at what is understood as restoration of growth, different groups perceive economic events differently. Dynamic growth might be a plus for one person, while for another stability is important.
Politicians and investors are truly oriented towards macroeconomic indicators, and even small growth in GDP is a signal to them. In this sense, in 2016, Russia will look significantly better than it does right now. For some reason, when making their 'poor/strong' assessments, journalists primarily follow this group in particular.
The second group is entrepreneurs – people for whom growth in GDP is not as important. For them, what is important is the extent of demand in specific markets and its indicators, such as economic expectations (mood), which are regularly measured by Rosstat and the HSE Centre for Business Tendency Studies. Since the end of last year, the business confidence index in Russia has fallen to minus 7%, which is lower than in the EU (minus 3-4%), but not comparable with the mood of crisis in 2009, when it was minus 15%. This is still a mood of stagnation rather than crisis. More important for entrepreneurs is available credit, although again, thanks to journalists, the Central Bank rate has taken on the status of a fetish of sorts. Actual borrowing conditions depend on several factors, primarily on the quality of an entrepreneur's assets. In this respect, 2016 is unlikely to be 'a positive turning point' for entrepreneurs; the same is likely to be true in terms of demand as well.
The third group is the people who have savings. This is a third of our population. For them there are two reference points – the rouble exchange rate (these people travel abroad), and the rates at which banks issue consumer loans and attract deposits. In this regard, we can say that in 2016, it seems unlikely that the situation will really change; borrowed money will be more available again, but a second boom in consumer lending won't happen. In 2016, this group of the population will be more satisfied than today, primarily due to greater stability of the rouble than was the case in 2015. But the positive here is stability rather than growth.
At the same time, there is growing anxiety with respect to incomes on the part of the 'fourth quintile' of the population – people who are balancing on the edge of the middle class. This is the most indebted population group. The fear of losing their jobs among 'white collar employees' in big cities and a noticeable reduction in wages in the commercial sector are causing these people not only to limit their consumption, but also to change their type of consumption. This may give rise to social discontent.
Finally, there is the base layer of the population that has no savings – 60% of our fellow citizens. For these people, the main indicator is the price of goods and services. In other words, consumer price inflation. If it is limited to 6-7%, the majority of Russia's population will feel a real change for the better in comparison with 2015.
— HSE has analyzed the decrees the president issued in May from the perspective of their enforceability. You have said that there is danger in their nonfulfillment. What is the danger?
— There are two groups of problems –obvious absenteeism when it comes to the objectives that have been set, and formal fulfilment of decrees. The first group primarily concerns expenditures on science. We are lagging behind significantly, which is dangerous for Russia's global position. And improving the quality of jobs (remember the 25 million new high-tech jobs?) – I don't see any policy in this regard.
The second group is the key 'social and labour' decrees aimed at transforming the educated class into a middle class, introducing high-quality regulation of the labour market, and creating career lifts for professionals. This is the core of Putin's programme, the core of his long-term contract with the educated segment of his electorate. The decrees issued in May involve raising salaries for professionals in science, education and health care to levels that are competitive, a so-called 'effective contract'. This increase has already led to the growth of the middle class in non-metropolitan areas by improving the economic situation of the mass educated class.
In 2012, we calculated the cost of an effective contract for doctors, mid-level and junior medical staff, teachers, university professors, scientists and cultural workers. Experts suggested increasing spending for these purposes from 2.8% of GDP to 3.9% by 2015 and subsequently to 4.2% by 2018 – this mainly came from subsidies provided by the federal government. These calculations were presented to Putin and Medvedev. In reality, the increase in salaries was realized in completely different conditions. The Ministry of Finance managed to convince the president and the prime minister that the federal budget should only provide a third of the money needed, with another third coming from internal restructuring of institutions' costs – let them pull from their own reserves, and a third would come from regional budgets. This was a beautiful idea.
For the first year and a half in 2012-2013, this strategy surprisingly worked; the first stage of salary increase was successful. I even told [Finance Minister Anton] Siluanov that I had underestimated the opportunities that the Finance Ministry had proposed for consideration. Later on it became worse, because the reserves of both regional governments and the state-funded institutions had run out. And everyone had begun to feel it.
Indeed, for 2015, the roadmap for increasing the average wage is generally being fulfilled. For doctors and university professors, we have gone to 130-140% of the average wage by region, for teachers – to 99%. But at the same time, instead of the additional funding of 1% of GDP needed to increase salaries, institutions received only 0.4% of GDP. While the contribution of the federal budget in previous years was no more than one third, for the current year it is less than 20%. It is clear that there isn't some miracle at work here; salaries are going up, but now it is due to a sharp increase in workload, and not only for doctors and teachers. We have just received the results of the annual survey of university professors from the monitoring study on the economics of education. Their workload has dramatically increased; whereas previously it was 38-40 hours per week, according to recent polls, it has now jumped to 50 hours.
The second 'inside source' comes from squeezing the remaining costs of institutions. In the structure of educational institutions' budgetary financing, for example, salaries have reached 70-80%! This is a return to the situation that existed in the early 2000s.
— In his budget strategy, the Finance Minister insists on reducing state-funded places at universities allocated per 10,000 young people. Several estimates show that this will lead to a loss of approximately 100,000 state-funded places in universities over the next few years. As one of the co-authors of the education reform, what are your thoughts on this?
— I'm really of two minds about it. In theory, 15-20% of our universities are at a very low level when it comes to education. They mimic education, or are simply preparing people to go nowhere; everyone knows that. The admissions figures for higher education show that some people are accepted who received near failing grades in basic subjects. They did not learn in school; they will not learn here. The Finance Ministry was guided by this position. In terms of the efficiency of public expenditure, the Finance Ministry's position is absolutely justified. This is one side. But today I would not advise the government to reduce state-funded places in higher education, and I don't think it will be implemented in the end.
You know, the most important thing during a time of crisis is to give people to opportunity to learn. But we need to change the structure of higher education. Instead of training 35% of our students to be economists and lawyers, which not a single country has, we need to create universities of applied sciences and a system of applied undergraduate studies. This exists in every country except Russia. This is competitive higher education that not only gives the basics, but also a definite area of specialization: office manager, system administrator, master builder. This is what technical training schools used to provide. But applied undergraduate study retains the aura of a university, which is very important because parents refuse to send their children to technical training schools. They agree to higher education precisely because their sense is the right one, i.e., that the social environment in universities will lift their children up, but in other places it could sometimes bring them down. Therefore, reducing places is something we may not be able to survive, but we can refashion these state-funded places.
— Deputy Prime Minister for Social Affairs Olga Golodets has pointed out that due to devaluation and falling incomes, the flow of Russian citizens moving abroad is growing, especially the young and qualified. They are not giving up their citizenship, but they are looking for larger salaries and better jobs. Do you see this trend? Is this a temporary phenomenon or are we returning to the early 90s?
— No, we are certainly not going back to the early 90s. At that time people who were going abroad were prepared to wash dishes, because that provided a living standard that they could not obtain as engineers in enterprises in Russian cities. This is not what we have right now. I think an exchange in people between Russia and the West is taking place constantly. Unfortunately, we are giving more in this exchange than we are getting back. As a result of events that began in mid-2014, we have lost about 100,000 skilled foreigners, which is quite a few.
'The issue is removing redundant elements from the state'
— If the Strategy 2020 would have taken shape in consecutive stages, would we have been able to avoid the stagnation of 2012 and 2013?
— No, of course not. Economic growth began to stall in 2012-2013, and when [Vladimir] Putin ordered us to develop a strategy, all the experts unanimously predicted the end of extensive growth. The price of oil was still growing, it reached $100-110 per barrel, but at this point it came to a standstill and remained there for such a long time, which was amazing. But the very fact that it ceased to grow meant that the old model was exhausted – a model that was designed not just on revenue from oil exports, but on the fact that this revenue would always grow. The model was strange and irrational, but it shaped the behaviour of the political and economic elite of the 2000s. Preventing it was impossible, and minimizing the negative impact in 2014 should have been done from both sides and through other means.
It was possible to implement two things. The first was budgetary manipulation by 4% of GDP. We suggested redistributing 1% of GDP to science and education, 1% to health care, and 1-2% (there was a long discussion) to transport infrastructure, mainly roads. This wasn't done. Moreover, the money from the budget fully went to those sectors from which we actually suggested taking money – to the security services and state administration. Of course, the budget manipulation was impossible to implement in several years; in reality, it would have taken the entire term of Putin's presidency up to 2018. But the vector of economic restructuring would have been set.
The second thing that was not accepted by the leadership was pension reform. Had it been started in 2012 rather than be postponed until 2018 like it is now, we would have been able to carry it out in much softer economic conditions. This is not only about raising the retirement age; rather, it's primarily about creating a normal system of pension savings whereby people set aside money themselves. We suggested creating a state fund, likely through the Reserve Fund or the National Welfare Fund, which would guarantee the investments of each person and would make them fireproof. We proposed creating a mechanism of co-financing private money from the state. It is clear that carrying out pension reform in 2018 is not possible; we simply don't have 1.5% of GDP. We will have to do it in a much harsher social and political situation, which of course is a waste.
— What could be a significant point of growth in the coming years?
— Natural points of growth, of course, are not just industries in which imports have become expensive and less competitive. First of all, they are areas where our businesses can expand market share without large capital expenditures. It is clear that manufacturing technology has grown more expensive, just as the Euro has. A large number of Russian business owners are afraid to make long-term investments in technology. I understand them. We can expect natural points of growth in agriculture and in the food industry. In my view, we can expect it to a much lesser extent in light industry, because we have virtually lost it; we would have to re-purchase the machines and train workers. Furthermore, we are competing with Asia in the large-scale segment, which easily beats us on the price of labour.
Growth can be expected in construction and related industries, first of all in housing, if the government can continue to keep mortgage rates below 12%. These three points of growth will probably be complemented by high-tech enterprises in the defence sector, where there will be stable demand for decades to come.
It is often said that we should cut the arms programme in half. Doing this now is impossible, because the money of an entire generation would be thrown out. This is extremely important not only for our independence, but also to preserve Russia's high-tech sector. Today, such manufacturing serves as a source of regenerating technological potential for our economy. It is forming new engineers, new technology, and new skilled workers.
— Can import substitution become a global point of growth?
— The import substitution that they are talking about on television is related to ideology. This is something quite different from what is actually happening. Import substitution is a chance for a specific entrepreneur. I assure you that he feels it much more than journalists and public officials. Import substitution is possible in all the sectors that I began to talk about. To what extent is it possible in the field of investment engineering? Well, to the extent that our companies begin showing demand. If we have sustainable development of the construction sector, agriculture, the processing industry, and these related sectors – from agrochemicals to packaging – it can begin developing as early as 2016. Entrepreneurs can grow when they don't feel attempts to persuade them from above, but rather the actual processes that they observe.
— In your opinion, how appropriate was Russia's introduction of counter-sanctions last year?
— It was definitely appropriate. But tactically, I would have done it differently. I would have stated that if sanctions against Russia were not lifted, we would have had to introduce counter-sanctions against certain sectors of the economy in the EU. Let's say, after six months. That way, we would have killed two birds with one stone. First, we would have mobilized the very politically active farming sector of the EU to fight for the lifting of sanctions. It's one thing when everything has already happened, and quite another when you can avoid it. Secondly, I would have given domestic wholesalers and retail chains time to prepare, to switch from the EU to South America, for example. There would have been less of a price shock for Russian consumers.
— The old model has exhausted itself, but there is a feeling that no one can offer a new one. What it could be?
— A new model has been discussed repeatedly. It is an economy that invests in human capital and receives increasing returns. Our wage levels are too high to claim a niche as the world's factory. And our population is too educated – two-thirds, if not three-quarters of young Russians are not willing to work with their hands.
In 10 and 20 years will obtain a significant portion of GDP from natural resources, but they can be diversified – not oil and gas, but clean water, for example. By 2030-2035, half of Russia's GDP will come from intellectual products and the experience economy, from education, science and culture. There is nothing exclusive about this; it's just the path that developed countries are taking in the 21st century.
However, in order to enjoy high profits in the economy of the 21st century, as a country we should be open and should focus on global markets. Russia now depends on international trade more than the U.S. and the EU, which is a consequence of our export orientation against relatively low domestic demand. We can reduce this dependency without restricting external contacts, but rather by providing income growth and sustainability for our businesses.
Another condition is construction of modern transport and information infrastructure. We now have a very unfavourable and unattractive environment around cities. We need investment in infrastructure to prepare land around major cities. In our budget manipulation we allocate to a single infrastructure – transport, but there is also gas, electricity and so on. Where does our economic activity end? It stops 20 kilometres away from any major city. Where does it stop in Europe? It never ends; there is simply no periphery. In the United States and Canada, it is some 80 kilometres from a big city. You can live outside the city, but drive into the city to work, take products to market, and be included in the economic realm of the city economy. Few people talk about expanding the economic radius around our cities. Economists generally don't have spatial thinking.
Another direction is certainly easing the role of the state [in the economy]. What I mean here is the bloated unit that is associated with control and supervisory functions. We have an excessive number of people in uniform. The people in uniform should be those who stand for the protection of the homeland and risk their lives.
A fourth element is modifying the social system of the state. If we look at developed countries, we see that a significant portion of social assistance passes through NGOs (including churches), simply because community oriented professionals better understand the needs of the people. We all understand that there are socially oriented NGOs that we are trying to maintain; they are not meeting any opposition in our government or the presidential administration. It is very good that they survive thanks to presidential grants, but they do not operate as efficiently as they could if we were to channel at least 15% of the money for social programmes through them.
— Will these positions be included in the Strategy 2030? It does not appear that the government is ready to give up the extra uniforms.
— I am certain that they will be; nobody is going to object to these positions. I assure you that the people who are in uniform, and rather big ones, are no less turned off by people in pseudo uniforms than you and I are. Every state needs security services, an army, and a prosecutor's office. The issue is removing redundant elements from the state where they originated. We have now simply become poor. But poor people are more inclined to treat their opportunities judiciously. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, by the way, is already reducing redundant functions, such as private security.
— This time, at least formally, officials have expressed a desire to write the Strategy 2030 without the involvement of outside experts. Will HSE and RANEPA (Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration) participate in this process?
— From the beginning, this issue was discussed with the expert council, which includes [Vladimir] Mau, Rector of RANEPA, and myself. [Alexander] Auzan, Dean of Faculty of Economics at Moscow State University, wrote the report. Of course, all the experts will participate. This is the question we put forward as to why high-level officials absolutely must participate in preparing the strategy. You know, there are just a few sectors where the Strategy 2020 is being implemented well. One of the main ones is education. Because [Dmitry] Livanov, Minister of Education and Science, took part before he was a minister. In all the other cases, it simply got into the hands of conscientious people who think differently and who read the text differently.
— Is HSE preparing for budget cuts somehow?
— It has already happened. Like other public institutions, we experienced a budget sequestration this year. 10-11% of expenditures were sequestered – important ones such as science, repair costs, commissioning buildings, and scholarships; they fell into the section 'other costs'. We hope that there won't be a sequestration next year and that we will manage to convince the Finance Ministry not to cut education spending. Nominally, expenditures are now planned at the same level they were in 2015 – without the sequestration. I am very happy that Anton Siluanov has publicly agreed several times with the authors of Strategy 2020 and has announced virtually the same budget priorities that we discussed in 2012 – education, health care, and the country's transport infrastructure. In the draft budget that the Ministry of Finance has now presented a second time, these things will be less subject to reduction. Education is preserved, and health care financing is even being increased by 2.5%. Although this is below the inflation rate, spending on health care is rising against a backdrop of hard spending cuts in other areas.
— The budget sequestration anticipates not such strong indexation of social payments and reduction in payments to civil servants. Is this a movement in the right direction?
— You know, it's the wrong direction, and we have never hidden our opinion; this is the total sequestration of 10% that the Finance Ministry resorted to earlier in the year. This is absolutely not constructive. If you sequester 10%, then you are rejecting reforms and confirming that you have no priorities. Doing that once was possible – the Ministry of Finance did it and managed to save – but, in my opinion, the effect was negative. Imagine that there are a number of construction projects with contracts where they take away 10% – how will they be completed? The government is now working through a lot of complaints about it. You build some some kind of frame and then, bam, you chop off 300 million roubles. But the contract includes this 300 million. Where will the ministry or someone else will find this 300 million now?
— But based on the indicators, your university managed to get around the crisis. Do you have fewer government contracts?
— Orders from state agencies for analysis and for applied development work stopped growing in 2013, and now they are decreasing because the agencies under sequestration cut primarily research and development. That has been the easiest thing to do. But we foresaw this situation and four years ago we began reorienting our applied research to other markets – large cities, regions and corporations. In recent years, a fairly substantial market has developed for university development programmes designed to implement certain instruments that exist at HSE in order train their teams of administrators and teachers. So far we have been able to maintain our revenue from applied development at the level of 1.5-1.7 billion roubles per year.
In terms of revenue, we have three other markets where we operate. First, there is paid higher education; this is in demand, and it's one of the most expensive in Russia. Our educational programmes cost between 250,000 and 600,000 roubles per year, which is comparable to European universities. Second, there is continuing education and various business schools. Third, there is a system of pre-university education. In total, we make about 4.5-5 billion roubles per year, which is 40% of our budget.
— Your university is included in the 5-100 programme to improve the competitiveness of Russian universities. One of Putin's decrees in May stated that five Russian universities in 2020 should enter the top 100 in international rankings. Participating universities should recruit foreigners to work for them. Recently, there was the loud firing of the investor Kendrick White from the post of Nizhny Novgorod University vice rector. Do you view this as a signal to higher education?
— The regulations of the 5-100 programme oblige participating universities to give at least two senior positions to qualified foreigners. When mud was thrown at Mr. White on TV for his insufficient love for Russian chemistry and he was then fired, I asked people I knew in the security services whether something was going on there, perhaps he had hired someone. Three days later they called me and said that they had spoken to their colleagues in Nizhniy Novgorod and that there had been no claims against Mr White. He has long been naturalized here and is married to a Russian; nobody understood why this hit the TV. So it's only a signal that there are a lot of zealots out there.
— It has been said that the departure of Konstantin Sonin from the post of HSE vice-rector is related to his desire to teach at American universities and his candid stance on political issues.
— When Konstantin Sonin came here, he warned us that, most likely, in two years he will have a contract in the United States. We agreed to this from the beginning. I think very highly of Sonin; he is doing a lot for HSE. But this is an absolutely normal career for a strong economist. The Harris School of Public Policy in Chicago is the dream of an economist, especially for ones like Sonin who study political economy. People move where it is more interesting for them and where the academic environment is stronger. This is that rare case when Sonin agreed with Dmitry Peskov: academics migrate between universities rather than between countries. It's a pity that we often lose in this process and continue to lose.
On the other hand, in a bad year, 35 scholars come to HSE from other countries on full three-year contracts. It is a pity that Sonin will only be at HSE on a part-time basis.
— Have the counter-sanctions and the foreign policy situation somehow affected the desire of foreign professors to work with us, and have they affected relations with foreign universities?
— No, there's hardly been any effect. There are cases of abnegation due to politics, but these are isolated cases out of the thousands of our contacts. More common are the economic cases; because our contracts are denominated in roubles, they have become less attractive on the global market. But this only applies to the hiring of new teachers. There has been no impact on joint research.
— Will you appoint foreigners to leadership positions at HSE, as prescribed by 5-100?
— From the beginning, we have guided by the fact that a foreigner cannot lead a Russian university. This is fictitious. To do this, one has to know a multitude of behavioural and administrative routines and regulations. That said, Mr White could easily be vice-rector, as he was naturalized here. Martin Gilman [Professor Emeritus at HSE and Advisor to Kuzminov], former director of the International Monetary Fund, has been working here for a long time. He is a very strong international official. But his Russian is not very good, so he simply could not be vice-rector. He is head and shoulders above half of my colleagues here, but he cannot do it. We never need to simulate things. We have a lot of laboratories where we hire foreigners because these types of professionals don't exist in Russia. And we will continue to do so.

Diabetes mellitus is considered the most common disease of modern society, which does not spare anyone.
Ordinary citizens or famous people with type 1 diabetes, anyone can become a victim of pathology. Which celebrity has type 1 diabetes?
There are a lot of such people. At the same time, they managed to withstand the blow and continue to live a full life, adapting to the disease, but achieving their goals.
What causes type 1 diabetes and how does a person's life change after being diagnosed?
What are the causes of the appearance of the disease?
Type 1 diabetes usually occurs in young people. These are patients who are not yet 30-35 years old, as well as children.
The development of pathology occurs as a result of failures in the normal functioning of the pancreas. This organ is responsible for producing the hormone insulin in the quantity necessary for humans.
As a result of the development of the disease, beta cells are destroyed and insulin is blocked.
Among the main reasons that can cause the onset of type 1 diabetes are:
- Genetic predisposition or a hereditary factor can trigger the development of the disease in a child if one of the parents had the diagnosis. Fortunately, this factor does not occur often enough, but only increases the risk of the disease.
- Strong stress or emotional upheaval in some cases can serve as a lever that will trigger the development of the disease.
- Recent severe infectious diseases, including rubella, mumps, hepatitis or chicken pox. Infection affects the entire human body, but the pancreas starts to suffer the most. Thus, the human immune system begins to destroy cells of this organ on its own.
During the development of the disease, the patient can not imagine life without injections of insulin, as his body can not produce this hormone.
Insulin therapy can include the following hormone groups:
- short and ultrashort insulin;
- intermediate exposure hormone is used in therapy;
- long-acting insulin.
The effect of the injected injection of short and ultrashort insulin appears very quickly, while having a short period of activity.
Intermediate exposure hormone has the ability to slow the absorption of insulin into human blood.
Long-acting insulin retains its effectiveness from days to thirty-six hours.
The injected drug begins to act approximately ten to twelve hours after the injection.
Russian prominent people with type 1 diabetes
Celebrities who suffer from diabetes are people who have experienced what the development of pathology means. Of the total number of stars, athletes and other famous people, the following persons can be distinguished, which are known in our country:
- Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev - a man who suffered from type 1 diabetes. He was the first and last president of the former USSR
- Yuri Nikulin is an outstanding Soviet-time actor who was remembered for all his participation in such films as The Diamond Hand, The Caucasian Captive, and Operation Y. Few people knew at the time that the famous actor was also given a disappointing diagnosis. At that time, it was not customary to notify about such things, but the actor endured all problems and troubles calmly.
- People's Artist of the Soviet Union Faina Ranevskaya once said: "Eighty-five years in diabetes is not a joke." Many of her statements are now remembered as aphorisms, and all because Ranevskaya has always tried to find something funny and funny in any bad situation.
- In 2006, she was diagnosed with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus in Alla Pugacheva. At the same time, the artist, despite the fact that she fell ill with such a disease, finds the strength to do business, to devote time to her grandchildren and husband.
Celebrity diabetes is not a hindrance to continue to live a full life and be professionals in their field.
Russian film actor Mikhail Volontir has been suffering from type 1 diabetes for a considerable period of time. At the same time, he still acts in various films and independently performs various and not very safe tricks.
Stars - known diabetics, which everyone knows about, differently perceived the news of his diagnosis. Many of them live on the full recommendations of their doctors, some did not want to change their usual way of life.
It should also recall a man, a famous artist, Mikhail Boyarsky. He was diagnosed with diabetes more than thirty years ago. The world actor felt in full all the signs of the disease.
On one of the many shootings, Boyarsky became suddenly ill, visual acuity deteriorated over several days, and a feeling of excessive dryness in the oral cavity appeared. It is these memories shared by the actor of that time.
The insulin-dependent form of pathology forces Boyarsky to inject insulin daily to regulate the level of glucose in the blood. As you know, the main components of successful therapy for diabetes are diet therapy, exercise and medication.
Despite the seriousness of the disease, Mikhail Boyarsky could not cope with his addiction to tobacco and alcohol, which provokes the rapid development of pathology, as the load on the pancreas increases.
Diabetes and Art
Many people with diabetes are found in our lives on television. These are actors of theater and cinema, directors, presenters of TV programs and talk shows.
Celebrity diabetics rarely talk about their true feelings about the disease and always try to look immaculate.
Famous diabetics suffering from this pathology:
- Sylvester Stallone - known worldwide actor, starring in action movies. He is one of those people who have an insulin-dependent type of diabetes. Viewers hardly guess, seeing Stallone about the presence of such a terrible disease.
- An actress who won an Oscar, Halle Berry, whose diabetes manifested itself many years ago. Having learned about the development of pathology, the girl first became very upset, but then managed to pull herself together. The first attack happened at twenty-two years on the set of the series "Living Dolls". Later, medical specialists diagnosed the condition of diabetic coma. Today, Berry participates in the Association of Juvenile Diabetes, and also gives a lot of effort to charity. African-American became the first black model, which presented the United States at the beauty contest "Miss World".
- Star Sharon Stone also suffers from insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. In addition, bronchial asthma is also among its comorbidities. At the same time, Sharon Stone carefully monitors his lifestyle, eating right and doing sports. Since diabetes mellitus type 1 carries with it various complications, Sharon Stone has had a stroke twice. That is why, to date, the actress can not fully give herself to sports and switched to a lighter kind of loads - Pilates.
- Mary Tyler Moore is a famous actress, director and film producer who has won Emmy and Golden Globe awards. Mary at one time headed the Foundation for the Study of Juvenile Diabetes. Diabetes mellitus of the first type accompanies her most of her life. She is engaged in charity in support of patients with the same diagnosis, financially helps in medical research and the development of new methods of treatment of pathology.
Not long ago, the Russian cinema produced a film entitled "Diabetes. The sentence is canceled." In the main roles - famous people with diabetes. These are, first of all, such outstanding personalities as Fyodor Shalyapin, Mikhail Boyarsky and Armen Dzhigarkhanyan.
The main idea that runs through such a movie was the phrase: "We are now not defenseless." The film shows its viewers about the development and consequences of the disease, the treatment of pathology in our country. Armen Dzhigarkhanyan reports that he refers to his diagnosis as another work.
After all, diabetes causes each person to make tremendous efforts on themselves, on the usual way of life.
Is diabetes and sport compatible?
Diseases do not choose people according to their material condition or status in society.
Victims can be people of any age and nationality.
Can I play sports and show good results with a diagnosis of diabetes?
Athletes with diabetes who have proven to the world that pathology is not a sentence, and even with it you can live a full life:
- Pele is a world-famous football player. His first three times awarded the title of world champion in football. For the Brazilian national team, Pele played ninety-two matches, while scoring seventy-seven goals. Diabetes player more from adolescence (from the age of 17). World fame of a football player is confirmed by such awards as "the best football player of the twentieth century", "the best young world champion", "the best football player in South America", two-time winner of the Libertarores Cup.
- Kriss Southwell is a world-class snowboarder. Doctors diagnosed insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, which did not become an obstacle for an athlete to achieve new results.
- Bill Talbert has been playing tennis for many years. He won thirty-three national type titles in the United States of America. At the same time, he became the one-time winner of the national championships twice. In the 50s of the twentieth century, Talbert wrote an autobiographical book "Playing for Life." Thanks to tennis, the athlete was able to keep the progress of the disease.
- Aiden Bale is the founder of the Diabetic Research Foundation. He became famous after the legendary run of six and a half thousand kilometers. Thus, he managed to cross the entire North American continent, daily injecting himself with human insulin.
Sports activities always show a positive result for lowering blood glucose levels. The main thing is to constantly monitor the necessary indicators to avoid hypoglycemia.
The main benefits of physical activity in diabetes are a reduction in blood sugar and lipids, a beneficial effect on the organs of the cardiovascular system, the normalization of weight and neutralization and a reduction in the risk of complications.
Celebrities with diabetes are discussed in the video in this article.

PS: Use the Test class (from jbs bug) to see large performance gains Cheers, Laurent 2017-11-08 23:58 UTC+01:00, Kevin Rushforth <kevin.rushforth at oracle.com>: > And once we are happy with the 2D webrev, it should be pretty > straight-forward to review it for FX. > > -- Kevin > > > Phil Race wrote: >> I think they should be separate webrevs sent to the separate lists and >> you should start with 2D >> as I can then run the JDK regression tests on it.

When Chef and caterer Anna Conrad was asked to provide paleo recipes for a fitness group's 28-day paleo challenge, she was a littl...e skeptical. Could an athlete-or even an average person-really maintain a balanced body without any grains or dairy? Before agreeing to the job, she decided to follow the diet for two weeks to see how she felt. In that short amount of time, she lost eight pounds without feeling hungry or deprived, and her blood pressure, heart rate, and cholesterol all stayed within healthy limits. She gladly provided the recipes and now offers a paleo menu as a regular part of her catering business.But what about bread? How can you make bread without grains? In this book, Conrad teaches how to make wholesome and satisfying breads with almond flour, coconut flour, and a host of other delicious, non-grain flours.

A good ol' sandwich for lunch? Not if you're eating paleo! The grain-free paleo diet is based on the human diet from over 10,000 years ago. This means foods that can be hunted or found straight off the tree or vine (no processed snacks here). So what is a paleo-friendly person on their lunch break to do? Here are 20 fantastic, healthy options that will have your non-paleo co-workers kale-green with envy.

Naturally promoting superior health and weight control, The Paleo Cookbook serves up wholesome recipes from around the world that emphasize lean proteins, vegetables, fruits and healthy fats. A staple for any paleo table, The Paleo Cookbook gives you your fill of a healthy and balanced life with every dish.
You'll be happy to learn that you can have Thai curry on the Paleo diet, as long as you follow a recipe that's been adjusted accordingly. This may not follow the traditional recipe exactly, but all of the distinct flavors are there, thanks to the use of full-fat coconut milk. They've used plenty of chicken, and have included an assortment of vegetables like zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, and asparagus. There's even kale thrown in for even more nutrients. Really as long as you've got the curry paste and the coconut milk you're well on your way to a successful replication.
They are snippets of my life and family. They show how I live as someone who eats and lives a primarily Paleo diet and lifestyle. It's real. I don't have the energy nor desire to dress these up and make them fake. You'll see me without makeup (some days), my kitchen messy, me eating stuff I shouldn't. You'll also see me give you tips on making things easier, things I like, and ideas for what to eat or do. And some days they won't have a darn thing to do with Paleo, health, or wellness – it'll just be me and my life.
Spiralized sweet potatoes make for a hearty pasta replacement in this fresh feeling paleo meal. Puttanesca is an ultra-savory Italian pasta dish that typically consists of capers, anchovies, olives, tomatoes, garlic, and olive oil. In this iteration, fresh tomatoes meet their salty match for a hearty, dairy-free pasta dish that's light on calories and heavy on flavor. For a vegetarian option, leave out the anchovies and use vegetable broth instead of chicken.
For busy commuters, it is easy to get in the rut of eating hard boiled eggs every morning. This book will help you keep both your breakfasts and lunches exciting, even with a busy work schedule. The recipes are not only delicious and healthy, they are easy to make. In addition, Diana is a nutritional therapist and offers the reader tons of practical tips on how to follow a Paleo diet, including a guide for eating out!
The cover for this cookbook may make it seem fairly unappealing. But, as is often the case, that concept isn't accurate at all. Instead, Nom Nom Paleo is a very popular paleo cookbook, with more than 100 different recipes on offer. Unusually, the cookbook has considerably more images than recipes, meaning you get amazing visual instructions of the entire cooking process.
I am doing a low carbohydrate (but not totally Paleo) diet. There are a lot of great recipes in this book. I've already made about half a dozen of the meat dishes, several of the veggies and a dessert. The book is well laid out and truly has a wide variety of types of dishes. I've purchased several of these types of cookbooks, and by far this one is the best. Several co-workers have already ordered their own after looking through mine.

Our Corporate Social Responsibility Pledge
Proudly Supporting DCCCP
Dagoretti Corner Rehabilitation Center (DCRC) National Hidden Talents Academy is a registered community based organization (CBO) under Dagoretti Corner Child Care Program (D.C.C.C.P). It started as a Christian oriented ministry by its founder director Pastor Enos Baxic Oumo in 1993 to offer free non-formal educational programme and home for orphans, destitute and street children. But due to HIV/AIDs pandemic in the area, the number of orphans left loitering without shelter, clothing, food, medical care has risen to alarming prepositions and for this reason the center needs to expand its physical infrastructure. Currently the center is housed in a 1/2 acre plot which is not enough for its expansion activities. The center is offering free non-formal educational support programme from std 1-8 and forms 1-4.
"The center could be able to achieve these objectives with assistance from friends, well-wishers, philanthropists, NGO's, Government and Volunteers. Because there is very limited assistance which is not forthcoming, the centre is facing hard times due to lack of finance and therefore cannot meet its required obligations and objectives".
Due to this statement, One's Health have identified the Center as an institution worthy of our assistance. We therefore undertake as a Company to contribute as regularly as possible to the orphanage in the form of food, medications and basic necessities.
Our first project in May of 2019 was the supply of 1 tonne of maize meal (the African staple diet) to the orphanage. This equates to a full meal for the centers 487 student for 1 month. The consignment was received with such delight by the children and Pastor Enos that thy formed a human chain from the Center of the school to the maize drop location and prayed with joy and happiness. It takes very little to contribute to the well-being of the children and we look forward to a long and lasting relationship with the Center.
