Objective To know the influence of out-hospital nursing with no gap on the level of HbAlc for patients with diabetes.Methods Divided 80 patients with diabetes into the intervention group and control group randomly,there were 40 cases in the each group.Out-hospital nursing cares with no gap were used in the intervention group,while the routine nursing cares were used in the control group.Fellowed up 1 year.Compared the FPG,2 hPG and HbAlc between the two groups at the time points of the 3rd,6th,9th and 12th month when out of hospital.Results All the indexes which had monitored were better in the intervention group than those of in control group.Conclusions Out-hospital nursing with no gap can remain the indexes in the normal level,and then promote their quality of life,which should be developed in clinical field.

Objective:
To understand the incidence and influencing factors of postoperative constipation in patients with malignant tumors who undergo oral and maxillofacial surgery and construct a constipation risk prediction model to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of postoperative constipation.
Methods:
The data of 191 patients who underwent oral and maxillofacial malignant tumor surgery at the Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Sun Yat sen University from June 2019 to June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The independent influencing factors were selected via univariate analysis and logistic multivariate regression analysis, a risk prediction nomogram was established, and the prediction model was evaluated by the area under the ROC curve. Both internal and external use the C index to verify the accuracy of the model.
Results :
Among 191 patients, 52 (27.23%) had postoperative constipation. Univariate analysis showed that a preoperative secret history of defecation, total energy intake, tracheotomy, smoking, drinking, operation duration, bleeding volume, bed time, eating homogenate diet, sex, surgical repair method, use of probiotics, T-stage of cancer and food intake may be the influencing factors of postoperative constipation in patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that repair method, bed time and sex were independent risk factors for postoperative constipation in patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors (P<0.05). The repair method was a fibular myocutaneous flap with a long bed time, and male patients were prone to constipation after surgery. The c-index values in the training group and the verification group were 0.882 and 0.953, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of the training group was 0.909 (95%CI: 0.850-0.968), and the area under the ROC curve of the verification group was 0.893 (95%CI: 0.787-0.999). The nomogram showed good discrimination ability.
Conclusion
The repair method, bed time and sex are independent risk factors for postoperative constipation in patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors. The risk prediction model has good discrimination ability.

Objective:
To understand the current status, international cooperation, research hotspots, and development trends of nutritional studies on patients with head and neck cancer from 2014 to 2024, and to predict future research trends.
Methods:
The Web of Science Core Collection database was searched to retrieve nutritional studies on patients with head and neck cancer from January 2014 to March 2024. The type of studies were “articles,” the language was English, CiteSpace 6.1 R6 software was used to conduct the bibliometric analysis, and the results were visualized to form a scientific knowledge map.
Results:
A total of 1 528 documents were retrieved, with a linear increase in the number of annual publications. The country with the highest number of publications was the United States, and the institution with the highest number of publications was the University of Queensland, with closer collaboration between authors and institutions. The most frequently cited publication was a set of nutrition guidelines, and the highest-impact articles were mainly concerned with performing percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. Keyword analysis showed that quality of life, radiotherapy, and weight loss were the keywords of highest interest. The keyword cluster analysis resulted in 17 clusters, which were divided into five main categories: head and neck cancer, treatment, outcome results, intervention modalities, and rehabilitation. Body composition, enteral nutrition, and accelerated postoperative rehabilitation were persistent research hotspots. Keyword highlighting revealed that “enhanced recovery after surgery” has been the focus of research in the last two years, with “index” and “model” emerging as theme words.
Conclusion
The number of publications in the literature related to nutrition for patients with head and neck cancer has increased annually over the past 10 years. The research hotspots mainly focus on the quality of life and weight loss during radiotherapy, the content and application prospect of body composition assessment, different modes of nutritional support interventions and enteral nutritional tube feeding routes, and perioperative nutritional management in enhanced recovery after surgery. The potential clinical value of preoperative nutritional intervention under the concept of enhanced recovery and the construction of new types of nutritional index are the trends of future research.
