Are children with type 1 diabetes safe at school?
Training non-medical staff will probably maximize safety of children with diabetes when a school nurse is not available.
ACE I/D polymorphism is a prognostic factor for ALI. Patients with the DD genotype have higher mortality of ALI. Polymorphism influences the expression of ACE gene in LPS-stimulated PBMC, DD genotype leads to higher level of mRNA and enzyme activity. It may be one of the mechanisms involved.
