19. An integrated research program for TOPEX/Poseidon with emphasis on the Pacific Ocean

Abstract

There are four distinct but related tasks in this investigation. First, we want to combine estimates of the surface dynamic topography derived independently from altimetry and from hydrography in an optimal way (weighted least squares with a priori estimates) to produce an optimal estimate (with error bounds) of the large-scale circulation. Second, we want to study the large-scale (as opposed to the mesoscale) variability using crossover differences as well as exact repeat tracks. The third task involves the study of mesoscale variability in the Kuroshio Extension, the California Current, and eventually the Pacific Ocean and the whole globe, wherein surface transport estimates are provided for both the Kuroshio Extension and the Gulf Stream. The final task is a study of how altimeter data and other data can be assimilated into numerical models.

Abstract

AIMS: To investigate relationships between glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) and reported hypoglycaemia and risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). METHODS: The EXAMINE trial randomized 5380 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and a recent acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event, in 49 countries, to double-blind treatment with alogliptin or placebo in addition to standard of care. We used Cox proportional hazards models to analyse relationships among MACE, HbA1c levels and hypoglycaemic events. RESULTS: Patients randomized to alogliptin achieved lower HbA1c levels than the placebo group in all baseline HbA1c categories without differences in hypoglycaemia rates. No systematic change was found in MACE rates according to baseline HbA1c (Pinteraction = 0.971) or HbA1c category at 1 month. Patients in the combined treatment groups (n = 5380) who experienced serious hypoglycaemia (n = 34) had higher MACE rates than those who did not (35.3% vs 11.4%, adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 2.42, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27-4.60; P = .007), although the association was less strong when analysing only events after the hypoglycaemic event (adjusted HR 1.60, 95% CI 0.80, 3.20). CONCLUSIONS: There were no relationships between baseline HbA1c levels or HbA1c levels after 1 month of treatment and the risk of MACE. Alogliptin improved glycaemic control without increasing hypoglycaemia. Reported events of hypoglycaemia and serious hypoglycaemia were associated with MACE. These data underscore the safety of alogliptin in improving glycaemic control in T2DM post-ACS. Further study of hypoglycaemia as an independent risk factor for MACE in patients with T2DM and coronary disease is needed.
