Abstract: The disclosure provides methods for treating diabetes by promoting graft survival and improved graft function in a patient receiving an islet transplant by treating the patient with a GLP-1 receptor agonist compound prior to the islet transplant. The methods may also comprise treating the islets with a GLP-1 receptor agonist compound prior to transplanting them in a patient. The methods may eliminate the need for immunosuppressive therapy in islet transplants. Any GLP-1 receptor agonist compound know in the art can be used in the methods described herein.

Abstract: An atmospheric correction system (ACS) is proposed, which accounts for the errors resulting from the in-homogeneities in the operational atmosphere along the slant path by constructing atmospheric profiles from the data along the actual target to sensor slant-range path. The ACS generates a slant-range path based on the arbitrary geometry that models the sensor to target relationship. This path takes the atmosphere and obstructions between the two endpoints into account when determining the atmospheric profile. The ACS uses assimilation to incorporate weather data from multiple sources and constructs an atmospheric profile from the best available data. The ACS allows the user to take advantage of variable weather and information along the path that can lead to increased accuracy in the derived atmospheric compensation value.

Abstract: Based on the concept of minimization, a method of static compaction has been developed for a digital circuit. The compaction method is a combination of two main procedures: one for the selection of essential test stimuli and the other for the elimination of redundant test stimuli, and effective in minimizing any set of test stimuli without modifying any of the test stimuli.

Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) is tested based on a divide-and-conquer strategy. First, digital components in the PLL are isolated from analog components and tested. Next, the digital components are connected to the analog components and the PLL is exercised by causing it to undergo a series of frequency transitions.
