Objective To investigate the effect of blood glucose control parameters on the prognosis of severe pneumonia patients based on continuous glucose monitoring(CGM)system.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 51 severe pneumonia patients monitored by CGM at the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from November 2021 to August 2023.Assessed parameters included baseline clinical characteristics,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),mean glucose,standard deviation(SD),coefficient of variability(CV),mean amplitude of glycemic excursions(MAGE),maximum glucose level,minimum glucose level,and time in range(TIR)of glucose within the target range(3.9-10.0 mmol/L)as a proportion and levels of inflammatory indicators before and after treatment.Based on the 28-day follow-up results,the patients were divided into the survival group(39 cases)and the death group(12 cases).The blood glucose parameters of the two groups were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influence of blood glucose parameters and infection indexes on the prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia.The efficacy of blood glucose parameters in the diagnosis of 28-day mortality was further evaluated by receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC curve).Results The acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ),SD and CV of blood glucose in death group were higher than those in survival group[APACHEⅡscore:20.5(14.0)vs.15.0(7.0),SD(mmol/L):2.6±0.7 vs.2.1±0.5,CV:(27.7±5.8)%vs.(23.7±4.3)%].However,the TIR(3.9-10.0 mmol/L)proportion was statistically lower than that of survival group[59.0%(17.0%)vs.68.0%(35.0%)],the differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.05).After using CGM,the white blood cell count(WBC)and hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)were significantly decreased[WBC(×109/L):9.2(6.5)vs.11.1(9.2),hs-CRP(mg/L):39.4(59.0)vs.56.2(133.8),both P<0.05].Multivariate Logistic regression showed that TIR(3.9-10.0 mmol/L)proportion was an independent risk factor for 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia[odds ratio(OR)=0.923,95%confidence interval(95%CI)was 0.852-0.999,P=0.046].The ROC curve showed that TIR proportion was valuable in predicting the clinical outcomes of patients with severe pneumonia.Area under the curve(AUC)=0.720,95%CI was 0.563-0.878,P=0.022;when the cut-off value was 63.5%,the sensitivity and the specificity were 59.0%and 83.3%respectively.Conclusion Increase of TIR(3.9-10.0 mmol/L)proportion in patients with severe pneumonia could improve clinical outcomes,especially when TIR proportion≥63.5%.

Rosacea is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease whose exact pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Metabolomics has been widely used in the field of life science to provide strong evidence for exploring the pathogenesis and biomarkers of diseases. In recent years, researchers have applied metabolomics to rosacea-related fields using sebum, tear, saliva, and serum samples. This review summarizes research progress on current metabolomics methods and the application of metabolomics in rosacea.

Rosacea is a chronic recurrent inflammatory skin disease, and correct assessment of clinical symptoms and severity may facilitate treatment options. This review summarizes a range of subjective, semi-subjective and objective methods currently used in the assessment of rosacea severity, in order to provide useful tools for clinical assessment of rosacea severity and give guidance on treatment modification according to the therapeutic effect.

Rosacea is a chronic facial inflammatory skin disease. It has been proved that heredity, immunity, neurovascular disorders, microorganisms, skin barrier damage and ultraviolet rays are closely related to the occurrence of rosacea. However, the exact pathogenesis of rosacea has not been fully elucidated. This review summarizes recent advances in the pathogenesis of rosacea in the past 5 years.

Objective To investigate the development of rehabilitation medical resources in Jiangsu during Thirteenth Five-year Plan.Methods The electronic questionnaire was issued uniformly to the medical and health institutions in 13 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu Province through the Health Commission system, to survey the rehabilitation medical resources data from 2015 to 2019.Results Compared with those in 2015, the secondary and above general hospitals with rehabilitation medicine departments increased 3.42 percentage points and community-level medical and healthcare institutions providing rehabilitation medical services increased 5.67 percentage points at the end of 2019; while, the authorized beds increased 127 and actual beds increased 142 in the rehabilitation department per million population; the early rehabilitation intervention increased 4 326 person-times per million population; there were 91 more rehabilitation professionals per million population, including 25 rehabilitation physicians, 31 rehabilitation therapists, 29 rehabilitation nurses and six other rehabilitation practitioners; the practitioners with associate senior titles and above increased 1.65 percentage points, and those with master-degree or above increased 1.27 percentage points.Conclusion The allocation of various rehabilitation resources has been improved in Jiangsu province during Thirteenth Five-year Plan.

Objective:To observe the effect of gaze stabilization exercises on the balance of stroke patients.Methods:Forty stroke patients were randomly divided into an experimental group ( n=20) and a control group ( n=20). Both groups were given conventional rehabilitation therapy, while the experimental group was additionally provided with gaze stabilization exercises, once a day, five days a week, for a total of four weeks. Each session lasted 30 minutes. Before and after the four weeks, both groups were evaluated in terms of their envelope ellipse area and the plantar pressure distribution on the affected side in static standing and using the anterior-posterior center of pressure displacement velocity (AP-COPV). They were also assessed using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), the timed up-and-go test (TUGT), and the Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC). Results:After the gaze stabilization exercises, the average envelope ellipse area, the plantar pressure distribution of the affected side with the eyes open and closed, AP-COPV, BBS score, TUGT time and ABC score of the experimental group were significantly superior to the control group′s averages and to the results four weeks previously.Conclusions:Gaze stabilization exercises can improve balance, weight shifting and one-leg standing after a stroke. That should enhance balance confidence and reduce the risk of falling.
