ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Jianpi Qinghua granules on blood glucose fluctuations in patients with newly diagnosed overweight/obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome from the perspective of skeletal muscle mass and function, while providing new insights for the treatment of diabetes. MethodsThis study employed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design. A total of 110 newly diagnosed overweight/obese T2DM patients meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to either the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) group (54 cases) or the control group (56 cases). Patients in the TCM group received Jianpi Qinghua Granules, while those in the control group received a placebo. Both groups underwent dietary and exercise guidance. After 12 weeks of intervention, blood glucose fluctuations were assessed using the following parameters: time in the target blood glucose range (TIR), mean daily blood glucose (MBG), standard deviation of mean daily blood glucose (SDBG), mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), coefficient of variation of blood glucose (CV), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) achievement rate, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and 2 hour postprandial glucose (2 hPG). Skeletal muscle mass was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), while skeletal muscle function was evaluated using a handheld dynamometer for distal muscle strength and a 5-time sit-to-stand test for lower limb function. Additionally, pancreatic islet function and TCM syndrome scores were analyzed. ResultsNo significant differences were observed in baseline data between the two groups before intervention, ensuring comparability. After treatment, compared to the control group, the TCM group showed a significant increase in TIR (P<0.01). While the SDBG and CV decreased, and MBG and MAGE increased in the TCM group, these differences were not statistically significant. Notably, the TCM group exhibited significant reductions in 2 hPG (P<0.01) and HbA1c (P<0.05), though the decrease in FPG was not statistically significant. The HbA1c achievement rate in the TCM group was significantly higher than that in the control group (χ2=45.498, P<0.01). In terms of skeletal muscle mass and function, the TCM group demonstrated a significant increase in handgrip strength (P<0.01) and a significant reduction in the 5-time sit-to-stand duration (P<0.05). However, although body fat percentage increased, leading to a decrease in skeletal muscle mass and the ratio of skeletal muscle to fat, these changes were not statistically significant. For pancreatic islet function, the TCM group showed significant reductions in fasting insulin (FINS) and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (P<0.01). Additionally, the TCM syndrome score in the TCM group was significantly reduced (P<0.01). ConclusionJianpi Qinghua granules may reduce blood glucose fluctuations in newly diagnosed overweight/obese T2DM patients with Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome by enhancing skeletal muscle function, improving pancreatic islet function, and ameliorating related TCM syndromes.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of crisaborole ointment 2% versus pimecrolimus cream 1% in the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in children aged 2 years or older.Methods:A multicenter, randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial was conducted. A total of 120 pediatric patients aged 2 - 17 years with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis were enrolled from departments of dermatology of 8 hospitals in China between March 2022 and February 2023. The participants were randomly assigned in a 1∶1 ratio to the crisaborole group and the pimecrolimus group, and received the treatment with crisaborole ointment 2% and pimecrolimus cream 1% respectively, twice a day for 4 weeks. Visits were scheduled at baseline/on day 1, as well as on days 8, 15, and 29. The primary efficacy outcome was the percentage of patients achieving the Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) success (defined as clear [0] or almost clear [1] on the ISGA scale, combined with ≥ 2‐grade improvement from baseline) on day 29. The secondary efficacy outcomes included changes in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) total scores from baseline to day 29, percentages of patients achieving ISGA improvement (defined as clear [0] or almost clear [1] on the ISGA scale), as well as changes in the Peak Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) scores, Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) /Infants' Dermatology Life Quality Index (IDLQI) /Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) scores, and in the Dermatitis Family Impact (DFI) scores. Drug safety was evaluated according to the incidence of adverse events. Categorical data were compared using the chi-square test. Since measurement data did not follow a normal distribution, the rank sum test was used for comparisons of measurement data between groups.Results:A total of 106 children with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis were included in the per-protocol analysis set, with 52 in the crisaborole group (26 males and 26 females) and 54 in the pimecrolimus group (27 males and 27 females). There were no significant differences in age, disease duration, ISGA and EASI scores at baseline between the two groups (all P > 0.05). On day 29, 22 patients (42.31%) in the crisaborole group and 25 (46.30%) in the pimecrolimus group achieved ISGA success, with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 = 0.17, P = 0.68) ; 35 patients (67.31%) in the crisaborole group and 45 (83.33%) in the pimecrolimus group achieved ISGA improvement, also with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 = 3.68, P = 0.06) ; additionally, there were no significant differences in the EASI, pruritus NRS, DLQI/IDLQI/CDLQI, or DFI scores between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Adverse reactions to the two topical agents were mainly local reactions such as mild to moderate pain, itching, or worsening of itching, and no obvious systemic adverse reactions occurred. The incidence of drug-related adverse reactions was 46.15% (24 cases) in the crisaborole group and 37.04% (20 cases) in the pimecrolimus group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 = 0.91, P = 0.34) . Conclusion:The efficacy of crisaborole ointment 2% was comparable to that of pimecrolimus cream 1% in the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis in children aged ≥ 2 years, and it yielded early and rapid improvement in the quality of life of patients and their families, with good safety and tolerability profiles.

Objective:To investigate the current status of nutritional support specialist nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice about nutrition nursing practice and analyze their influencing factors, so as to provide reference for optimizing and improving the level of nutritional support specialist nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice, and constructing a training program for nutritional support specialist nurses.Methods:From October to November 2023, 557 nutritional support specialist nurses in 28 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government of China were selected for the survey using the convenience sampling method. General information questionnaire and Nutrition Nursing Practice Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire were used to conduct the survey. Multiple linear regression was used to explore the influencing factors of knowledge, attitude and practice.Results:A total of 557 questionnaires were distributed and 507 questionnaires were effectively recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 91.0%. The nutrition nursing practice knowledge dimension scores, attitude dimension scores, and practice dimension scores of 507 nutritional support specialist nurses were 30.00 (28.00, 31.00) , 47.00 (41.00, 50.00) , (22.65±6.77) , respectively. Multiple linear regression analyses showed that education was an influencing factor in the knowledge dimension of nutrition nursing practice among nutritional support nurse specialists ( P<0.05) ; title, hospital level, and years of experience as a nutritional support nurse specialist were influencing factors in the attitude dimension of nutrition nursing practice ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Nutritional support specialist nurses have a good knowledge base of nutrition nursing practice and a positive attitude, but their practices need to be further improved. Knowledge, attitude, and practice are affected by multiple factors such as education, title, hospital level, and number of years in the professional field. In the process of nurse specialist training, managers should pay attention to the learning needs of nurses at different levels, carry out targeted training, establish a standard workflow for nurse specialists, and emphasize the construction of talents in primary hospitals, so as to promote the high-quality development of nutrition support specialist nurses.

The participation of nurses in nutritional screening and assessment is not only the foundation for achieving full coverage of nutritional screening and assessment for hospitalized patients, but also an important guarantee for preventing and improving adverse clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients. Nurses should start by distinguishing between the concepts of nutritional screening and nutritional assessment, selecting patient-appropriate nutritional screening and assessment tools, and accurately timing nutritional screening and assessment to correctly perform nutritional screening and assessment. At the same time, nurses have a unique role and value in identifying nutritional risks in hospitalized patients, performing nutritional screening and assessment, and multidisciplinary nutritional diagnosis and treatment. Although nurses face many challenges in practice, they can address these challenges through artificial intelligence empowerment, the development of nutritional screening and assessment standard processes, the provision of health education to assist patients in self-management, and the establishment of training systems.
