ABSTRACT

This communication reports on the preparation of stable and photo-active nano-heterostructures composed of O2 tolerant [NiFe] hydrogenase extracted from the Aquifex aeolicus bacterium grafted onto hydrophilic CdSe/CdS quantum rods in view of the development of H2/O2 biofuel cells. The resulting complex is efficient towards H2 oxidation, displays good stability and new photosensitive properties.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this work was to develop a simple model to evaluate the health care cost of diabetes in order to help decision-makers in selecting strategies for the prevention, control, and treatment of the disease. The model assesses the cost of full coverage of health care of diabetic patients free of chronic complications and in comparison with those of the treatment of acute and chronic complications. For that purpose, standardized cost figures were obtained from both annual control and treatment of uncomplicated diabetic patients and the treatment of one episode of ketoacidosis, acute myocardial infarction, and amputation of two toes. The treatment/prevention cost ratio obtained showed that prevention of a single episode of any of these late-complication-related events would provide enough funds to cover either the total or partial annual cost of control and treatment of several uncomplicated diabetic patients. These facts would favour the allocation of funds in such a way as to allow adequate control and treatment of diabetic patients to keep them free of the chronic complications of the disease. This would be a wise investment of funds, which would result in a reduction in the socioeconomic cost of the disease and in a better quality of life for the diabetic patients and their families.

ABSTRACT

Hasta ahora no existián en Argentina estadisticas publicados respecto a los costos directas de la diabetes. En este trabalho se consederan los gastos anuales del control y tratamiento de un paciente con Diabetes mellitus no insulinodependiente (DMNID) y otro con diabetes mellitus insulinodependiend (DMID) sin complicaciones, estos han sido estandarizados, adjedicandoles un valor en dolares VS. Luego se consideró el gasto de internación y tratamiento estandarizado di un infarto agudo de miocardio y de una amputación no traumática de miembros inferiores, asi como el gasto mensual de hemodiálise. Los resultados son concluuentes: por ejemplo el gasto ocasionado por un solo y simple episodio de citoacedosis equivale a 133% del gastro de insulina consusmido por en paciente con DMID en un año 0 a 4 veces el de las tivas seactivas para su automonitoreo y al 67% de su control y tratamiento en igual lapso. Este diagnóstico de situación justifica la puesta en marcha de un programa que contemple la educación diabetológica, el automo y la proviensña de tixas reactivas, insulina y material descartable
