Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare with its adult onset progressive neurodegenerative disease, which is clinically classified into parkinsonian (MSA-P) and cerebellar (MSA-C) subtypes based on the presenting motor phenotype. MSA has an insidious onset, with its early manifestation of autonomic dysfunction so is easily misdiagnosed. Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) is a key manifestation of chronic autonomic failure in primary neurodegenerative diseases, and is the most common autonomic dysfunction in patients with MSA. Currently, the treatments for nOH in patients with MSA are limited. In this case report, the rehabilitation method is shared for nOH in patients with MSA, which provides ideas for clinical treatment and rehabilitation of nOH in these patients.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of insomnia in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and analyze the influencing factors of insomnia in the ACS patients, so as to provide information on the development of new strategies for the treatment of insomnia in ACS patients.Methods:This is a multicenter and prospective observational study. A total of 771 ACS patients who met the criteria were selected from March 2013 to June 2015. The baseline social demographic information, sleep quality questionnaire, general anxiety disorder scale-7(GAD-7),patient health questionnaire-9(PHQ-9), short-form 12 health survey questionnaire(SF-12), and enhancing recovery in coronary heart disease patients social inventory(ESSI) were completed within 7 days after admission. Logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the influencing factors of insomnia in ACS patients.Results:A total of 741 subjects with valid questionnaires were collected, including 510 males (68.8%) and 231 females (31.2%). Among them, 487 (65.7%) subjects had at least one insomnia symptom: 308 (41.6%) subjects had difficulty in falling asleep, 369 (49.8%) subjects were easy to wake at night, 116 (15.7%) subjects woke up earlier than they expected, 74 (10.0%) subjects experienced both woke up earlier and difficulty in falling asleep, and 53 (7.2%) subjects woke up earlier, woke up at night and had difficulty in falling asleep at the same time. Logistic regression analyses showed that before admission physical activity ( OR =0.636, 95% CI 0.411-0.984), depression ( OR=1.908, 95% CI 1.101-3.305) and low social support ( OR=0.278, 95% CI 1.198-3.301) were independent factors of insomnia in ACS patients. Conclusions:Nearly 2/3 ACS patients have symptoms of insomnia. Difficulty in falling asleep and easy to wake up at night are the most common manifestations. Physical activity, depression and social support independently are associated with insomnia.

Objective:To evaluate and analyze the methodology and quality of recommendations in clinical practice guidelines for frail elderly people.Methods:We systematically searched 4 databases including the PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) , China Biology Medicine Database, Wanfang Data, as well as 5 guideline websites involving Guidelines International Network, Canadian Medical Association Clinical Practice Guideline, Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, New Zealand Guidelines Group, and supplemented to search Medlive. The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and EvaluationⅡ (AGREEⅡ) and the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation-Recommendation Excellence (AGREE-REX) were used to evaluate the overall quality of the included guidelines and the quality of the recommendations respectively.Results:A total of 862 documents were retrieved, and 5 guidelines were finally included after screening. Among the overall scoring results of the guideline, there were 4 articles in Grade B and 1 article in Grade C. The average scores of 6 fields in AGREEⅡ were scope and purpose 82.2%, stakeholder involvement 54.5%, rigor of development 38.7%, clarity of presentations 83.3%, applicability 30.8% and independence 21.1%. The average scores of 3 fields in AGREE-REX were clinical applicability 73.3%, values and preferences 20.8%, and implementability 65.0%. The guideline issued by the International Conference on Frailty and Sarcopenia Research in 2019 was of the highest quality.Conclusions:Most of the guidelines come from developed countries in Europe and America, and there are no clinical practice guidelines for frail elderly people in China. The newly released guidelines have improved the quality of the methodology and guideline recommendations, but the four fields of rigor, applicability, editorial independence, values and preferences need to be improved.

Objective The aim of the study was to explore the influencing factors of exercise tolerance in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) revascularization in acute state. Methods A total of 112 patients with first MI undergoing PCI revascularization in acute state and completing cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) were enrolled. Exercise capacity was evaluated by peak oxygen consumption percentage (VO2 peak%) in CPET. Patients were divided into normal exercise capacity (NEC) group (n=40) and abnormal (AEC) group (n=72) according to VO2 peak% value. Clinical manifestations, histories of hypertension and diabetes, medications, coronary arterial angiography and echocardiography findings of patients were compared. The onsets of diabetes and blood glucose levels during the period of CPET were evaluated in the MI patients with diabetes. The patients were followed up for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (admission due to chest pain, re?revascularization, re?infarction and all?cause death) within 24 months after PCI. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine influencing factors for exercise tolerance. Results The ratio of diabetes, type C lesions in the AEC group were higher than those in the NEC group (diabetes: 37.5% vs. 17.5%; type C lesions: 69.4% vs. 42.5%, respectively, all P<0.05). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients in the AEC group was lower than that in the NEC group [(60.6±10.0) % vs. (65.0±8.2) %, P=0.019]. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that history of diabetes and history of type C lesions were the independent risk factors for the declined exercise capacity in the MI patients after PCI revascularization ( OR=3.14, 95%CI 1.167-8.362, P=0.023; OR=3.32, 95%CI 1.444-7.621, P<0.01). Among the MI patients with diabetes, the duration of diabetes in the AEC group was significantly longer than that in the NEC group[ (7.7 ± 3.6)years vs. (5.0 ± 2.4)years] and the proportions of subjects reaching target levels of fasting plasma glucose (40.7% vs. 57.1%) and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) (55.6% vs. 71.4%) in this group were significantly lower than those in the NEC group (all P<0.05). A multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that reaching HbA1c target was an independent predictor of improved exercise tolerance in MI patients with diabetes who received PCI ( OR=2.518, 95%CI 1.395-7.022, P=0.021). No significant differences were observed in incidence of admission due to chest pain, re?revascularization and re?infarction between the two groups within 24 months after PCI between the groups. Conclusions Diabetes and type C lesions are independent risk factors of declined exercise capacity in patients with first myocardial infarction who received revascularization in acute state. Reaching target HbA1c is independent factor of improved exercise capacity in patients with myocardial infarction and diabetes.
