Objective:To explore the metabolic outcomes of type 2 diabetes patients with different durations after 1 year treatment under the standardized metabolic disease management model.Methods:(1)From September 2017 to September 2018, 345 type 2 diabetes patients in the Standardized Metabolic Management Center(MMC) of Shanghai General Hospital were recruited and included in this research. They were divided into newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes(duration≤1 year) and long-term groups(duration>1 year). The general characteristics, blood pressures, glycemic levels, lipids levels, control rates and comprehensive compliance rates(blood glucose, pressure and lipids all reached targets) were compared at baseline between 2 groups.(2)All patients underwent one year standardized management, and metabolic indicators mentioned above and control rates at the time were compared as well.Results:(1) At baseline, compared with long-term group, patients in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes group were younger ( P<0.01), and 2 h blood glucose level after glucose loading were higher [(15.20±5.26 vs 13.68±4.94) mmol/L, P<0.01]. (2) After one year standardized management, body weight, blood pressure, glucose and lipids metabolism in all patients were significantly improved. Compared with patients in long-term group, newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients achieved better glycemic level [fasting blood glucose(6.27±1.56 vs 7.63±2.08) mmol/L, P<0.01; glycated hemoglobin(6.33±0.96 vs 7.23±1.37) %, P<0.01] , and had higher HOMA-β [(74.01±56.45 vs 40.17±37.07) %, P<0.01]. The glycemic control, blood pressure and blood lipids control rates in both groups increased significantly in one year. Comprehensive compliance rate of the whole patients increased from 5.80% to 24.06%. The metabolism indexes of the newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes group were better than those of the long-term group[comprehensive compliance rate: (24.73% vs 17.18%, P=0.087, glycemic control rate(84.62% vs 53.37%, P<0.01)]. Conclusion:Standardized metabolic disease management promoted the overall improvement in blood glucose, blood pressure, and lipids levels in type 2 diabetes patients, especially in terms of blood glucose and those of the newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes. In the future, we should focus on the early diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes, actively promote the MMC model and stress the integrated management of blood glucose, blood pressure, and blood lipid levels. We should pay more attention to the long-term patients, to improve their awareness and treatment compliance.

Objective:To detect the levels of serum IgM and IgG antibodies against 2019-nCoV in 79 patients with COVID-19 for understanding their variation patterns in vivo. Methods:Chemiluminescence immunoassay was used to detect the levels of 2019-nCoV-specific IgM and IgG antibodies in 167 serum samples collected at different periods (≤10 d, 10<~20 d, 20<~30 d、>30 d) after disease onset from 79 clinically confirmed COVID-19 patients in Hangzhou Xixi Hospital. The results were statistically analyzed together with clinical data.Results:The average levels of IgM and IgG antibodies in severe and common cases were higher than those in mild cases [IgM: 21.77 (10.18-128.65) and 13.13 (6.08-35.14) vs 3.01(1.69-8.69), χ 2=27.442, P<0.01; IgG: (124.22±36.79) and (120.04±63.25) vs (52.31±53.68), F/χ 2=27.295, P<0.01]. The positive rates of IgM and IgG antibodies in severe and common cases were also higher than those in mild cases after recovery ( P<0.01). The levels of IgM and IgG antibodies were affected by the time of detection. The level of IgM antibody detected during 10<~20 d of the disease onset was significantly higher than that within 10 d of the disease onset ( P<0.05). The level of IgG antibody detected after 10 d of the disease onset was significantly higher than that within 10 d of the disease onset ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Higher levels of IgM and IgG antibodies were detected in patients with severe COVID-19. A significant correlation was found between the levels of IgM and IgG antibodies and the time of detection.

Objective To investigate the status quo of wander behavior among inpatients with senile dementia and discuss relevant risk factors.Methods Totally 84 inpatients with senile dementia from the Department of Geriatrics of Shanghai Mental Health Center were selected, evaluated with Revised-Algase Wandering Scale (RAWS), Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI), and divided into a wandering group (69 patients) and a non-wandering group (15 patients). The risk factors related to wander behavior were analyzed.Results The incidence of wander behavior among the inpatients with senile dementia was 82.1%, with spatial disorientation as the main form in RAWS factor analysis; The MMSE score of the patients in the wandering group was (2.58±5.65), lower than that of the patients in the non-wandering group, and their NPI score was (17.88±7.93), higher than that of the patients in the non-wandering group (t=2.89, 2.21;P<0.05). According to the Logistic Stepwise Multiple Regression, wander was closely related to severity of dementia, mental and behavior disorder and NPI apatheia.Conclusions Wander behavior is widely found among patients with senile dementia and brings great difficulty to their caregivers. Therefore, studies on their causes play a practical part in improving the treatment, nursing and family care for patients with senile dementia and preventing them from getting lost, felling down and being injured.
