CGM (BML)
Continuous Glucose Monitoring in the Intensive Care Unit Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) in intensive care (ICU) patients is strongly associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In addition to the fact that stress-induced hyperglycemia occurs due to being seriously ill, the frequent use of corticosteroids in the ICU can have hyperglycemia as a side effect. According […]

Menopause (BML)
An osteoblast/osteoclast co-culture model to study menopause related osteoporosis. Menopause marks the final menstrual period in a woman’s life. In the period preceding menopause, called perimenopause, a shift in hormonal balance occurs. While some women go through this period uneventfully, others experience negative consequences that affect their physical health and workability. One of the physical […]
