Ram Weiss,James Dziura,Tania S. Burgert,William V. Tamborlane,Sara E. Taksali,Catherine W. Yeckel,Karin Allen,Melinda Lopes,Mary Savoye,John C. Morrison,Robert S. Sherwin,Sonia Caprio +11 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome is high among obese children and adolescents, and it increases with worsening obesity, particularly in severely obese youngsters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial dysfunction in the elderly: possible role in insulin resistance
Kitt Falk Petersen,Douglas E. Befroy,Sylvie Dufour,James Dziura,Charlotte E. Ariyan,Douglas L. Rothman,Loretta DiPietro,Gary W. Cline,Gerald I. Shulman +8 more
TL;DR: Elderly study participants were markedly insulin-resistant as compared with young controls, and this resistance was attributable to reduced insulin-stimulated muscle glucose metabolism, which supports the hypothesis that an age-associated decline in mitochondrial function contributes to insulin resistance in the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavior Therapy for Children With Tourette Disorder: A Randomized Controlled Trial
John Piacentini,Douglas W. Woods,Lawrence Scahill,Sabine Wilhelm,Alan L. Peterson,Susanna Chang,Golda S. Ginsburg,Thilo Deckersbach,James Dziura,Sue Levi-Pearl,John T. Walkup,John T. Walkup +11 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive behavioral intervention, compared with supportive therapy and education, resulted in greater improvement in symptom severity among children with Tourette and chronic tic disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a weight management program on body composition and metabolic parameters in overweight children: a randomized controlled trial.
Mary Savoye,Melissa Shaw,James Dziura,William V. Tamborlane,Paulina Rose,Cindy Guandalini,Rachel Goldberg-Gell,Tania S. Burgert,Anna M. G. Cali,Ram Weiss,Sonia Caprio +10 more
TL;DR: The Bright Bodies weight management program had beneficial effects on body composition and insulin resistance in overweight children that were sustained up to 12 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fully Automated Closed-Loop Insulin Delivery Versus Semiautomated Hybrid Control in Pediatric Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Using an Artificial Pancreas
Stuart A. Weinzimer,Garry M. Steil,Karena L. Swan,James Dziura,Natalie Kurtz,William V. Tamborlane +5 more
TL;DR: Closed-loop glucose control using an external sensor and insulin pump provides a means to achieve near-normal glucose concentrations in youth with type 1 diabetes during the overnight period and the addition of small manual priming bolus doses of insulin improves postprandial glycemic excursions.
