The document summarizes a queueing model with two component mixture of doubly truncated exponential service times. The service time distribution is a two component mixture of doubly truncated exponential distributions, which can characterize heterogeneous and finite range service times. Assuming Poisson arrivals, the embedded Markov chain technique is used to analyze the system. Explicit expressions are derived for performance measures like average number of customers, average waiting time, throughput, and probability of idleness. Numerical analysis studies the sensitivity of performance measures to parameter changes. The model includes two component mixture of exponential, doubly truncated exponential, and exponential service time models as special cases.
The PR department had two main tasks. The first was to inform the public about a murder investigation and appeal for information, while filtering details and ensuring public concern was eased. The second task was to address a police officer disclosing confidential case information to the press. The PR team released a statement apologizing for any panic caused, identified the officer involved, and provided a quote from the Chief Inspector reassuring the public that the leak was being investigated and appropriate action would be taken.

Daily consumption of bread enriched with 3g of beta-glucan from oats for 3 weeks significantly reduced total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels in patients with type 2 diabetes, compared to a control group. The beta-glucan group saw a 24.5 mg/dl reduction in total cholesterol and a 19.7 mg/dl reduction in LDL cholesterol. HbA1c levels also significantly decreased in the beta-glucan group but not the control group, indicating improved glycemic control. No significant changes were seen in HDL cholesterol or triglyceride levels between the groups.

SGPT/ALT levels are positively correlated with insulin resistance in overweight and obese individuals of both sexes, regardless of factors like age, BMI, ferritin, body fat distribution, or diabetes status. SGPT/ALT levels also correlate positively with serum ferritin levels in overweight/obese males and females. The study examined 601 overweight/obese subjects, finding SGPT levels differed between quartiles of insulin resistance, sensitivity, and secretion indices for both sexes. Higher SGPT associated with greater insulin, insulin resistance, and ferritin.
This study examined the relationship between gamma-GT levels and measures of body weight and fat distribution in 604 overweight and obese individuals. The results showed that higher gamma-GT levels were associated with higher BMI, waist circumference, and visceral fat percentage in both males and females. These relationships remained significant when analyzing subgroups of individuals with usual alcohol consumption and non-diabetic individuals.
This study examined the influence of marital status on obesity in Greek adults using data from the First National Epidemiological Study on the Prevalence of Obesity in Greece. The study analyzed 7,170 males and 8,174 females grouped by age (20-35, 36-50, >50) and marital status (single, married, divorced, widowed). Results showed that among males aged 20-35, singles had a significantly higher BMI than married individuals. No significant differences were found between marital status groups for males aged 36-50 or >50, or for females in any age group. Waist circumference also differed significantly between single and married males aged 20-35, but not in other age or gender groups.
This study examined the relationship between alcohol consumption and abdominal obesity in Greek adolescents. The results showed that alcohol consumption was related to abdominal obesity in adolescent boys, with moderate drinking (1-150 g/week) associated with lower waist-to-hip ratios, but no such relationship was found in girls. The study concluded that while boys drink more alcohol than girls in Greece, moderate alcohol intake may reduce abdominal obesity risk in boys but not girls.
This study examined the relationship between alcohol consumption and abdominal obesity in the Greek population. Data was collected through a national survey on obesity in Greece. The results showed that waist-to-hip ratio, a measure of abdominal obesity, was associated with alcohol consumption in men but not women. Higher alcohol intake was linked to greater abdominal obesity in Greek men. The findings suggest that alcohol consumption may contribute differently to abdominal fat accumulation between sexes.
1) This study examined smoking habits and body weight in Greek adults using data from a national epidemiological survey on obesity prevalence in Greece.
2) The results showed that Greek males had higher smoking rates than females overall and in different age groups.
3) Contrary to expectations, smoking habits were not correlated with obesity indices except waist circumference in male smokers, which was related to the number of cigarettes smoked per day.
This document summarizes the results of a survey on Greek population's knowledge of obesity. The survey found that most people see obesity as a health problem rather than an appearance issue and are aware of exercise and diet as ways to prevent it. However, many do not seek help from medical professionals for weight loss and are not familiar with the Hellenic Medical Association for Obesity. The conclusion is that more public education is needed on obesity and the resources available to address it.
This study examined insulin resistance and cytokine levels in overweight women with breast cancer before and after chemotherapy. Before chemotherapy, patients had higher insulin resistance, insulin levels, interleukin-1, and interleukin-6 levels compared to controls. After 6 months of successful chemotherapy, patients' post-meal insulin levels were significantly lower, suggesting chemotherapy reduced the malignancy's effect on insulin resistance. Higher BMI was also correlated with greater insulin response both before and after chemotherapy, revealing chemotherapy did not alter the relationship between BMI and insulin resistance.
This study examined the relationship between body fat distribution, androgenic activity, and other clinical factors in 198 obese Greek men. The results showed that central fat distribution, reflected by a higher sagittal abdominal diameter, was correlated with lower blood testosterone levels. However, the free androgen index, a measure of bioavailable testosterone, was not correlated with measures of body weight or fat distribution, but was influenced by age and circulating T3 levels. The conclusions were that central obesity is linked to lower testosterone levels, but androgenic activity is independent of fat distribution and body weight in obese men.
1) This study examined body weight changes in 145 patients with primary hypothyroidism before and after 6 months and 18 months of replacement therapy.
2) Before treatment, patients had high average BMI of 29.3 and 73.8% were overweight or obese. Hypothyroidism severity did not correlate with BMI.
3) After 6 months of treatment, patients lost an average of 1.55kg but by 18 months the average weight loss was only 0.57kg and not statistically significant.
4) The study concludes that while hypothyroidism may contribute to weight gain, long-term replacement therapy results in negligible weight loss and difficulty achieving significant weight loss
1) Weight loss increases the risk of gallstone disease in women more than obesity alone.
2) The risk increases based on the total amount of weight lost, with losing more than 10 kg at least once carrying the highest risk.
3) The study investigated the risk factors of obesity, weight loss regimens, age, and gender on gallstone disease by separating 1632 females into groups based on these criteria and measuring gallstone prevalence.
