Background:
Automated insulin delivery (AID) systems studies are upsurging, half of which were published in the last 5 years. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AID systems in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
Methods:
We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov until August 31, 2023. Randomized clinical trials that compared AID systems with other insulin-based treatments in patients with T1DM were considered eligible. Studies characteristics and glycemic metrics was extracted by three researchers independently.
Results:
Sixty-five trials (3,623 patients) were included. The percentage of time in range (TIR) was 11.74% (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.37 to 14.12; P<0.001) higher with AID systems compared with control treatments. Patients on AID systems had more pronounced improvement of time below range when diabetes duration was more than 20 years (–1.80% vs. –0.86%, P=0.031) and baseline glycosylated hemoglobin lower than 7.5% (–1.93% vs. –0.87%, P=0.033). Dual-hormone full closed-loop systems revealed a greater improvement in TIR compared with hybrid closed-loop systems (–19.64% vs. –10.87%). Notably, glycemia risk index (GRI) (–3.74; 95% CI, –6.34 to –1.14; P<0.01) was also improved with AID therapy.
Conclusion
AID systems showed significant advantages compared to other insulin-based treatments in improving glucose control represented by TIR and GRI in patients with T1DM, with more favorable effect in euglycemia by dual-hormone full closedloop systems as well as less hypoglycemia for patients who are within target for glycemic control and have longer diabetes duration.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of video-based educational intervention combined with maternal presence on perioperative adverse outcomes in preschool children undergoing general anesthesia, including cooperation in anesthesia induction, perioperative anxiety, pain and agitation during recovery. MethodsA total of 300 preschool children scheduled for general anesthesia in our hospital from June to December 2023 were randomly assigned to control group (n=150) and intervention group (n=150). The control group received routine recovery care. For the intervention group, in addition to routine recovery care, a preoperative visit was scheduled one day before surgery. During this visit, mothers were guided to watch anesthesia videos with their children. During the waiting period in the operating room and 30 minutes after awakening, the mothers were guided to accompany the children for more than 30 minutes. Recovery conditions were recorded using the surgical anesthesia information system, and the children’s anesthetic induction compliance, perioperative anxiety, pain, and agitation were evaluated and recorded using the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS), the Induction Compliance Scale (ICC), the Children’s Pain Behavior Scale (FLACC), and the Pediatric Agitation and Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED). ResultsOn the preoperative visit day, there were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups (P > 0.05). For perioperative anxiety, the m-YPAS scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group, both when entering the operating room waiting area (35.27±6.48 vs. 41.79±6.68, P < 0.05) and 30 minutes after postoperative recovery (20.13±7.05 vs. 35.75±9.51, P < 0.05). In terms of anesthesia induction cooperation, the ICC scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group (1.84±0.95 vs. 3.17±0.62, P < 0.05), and the proportion of good induction cooperation was significantly higher than that of the control group (24.00% vs. 12.67%, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in awakening duration between the two groups, but the intervention group had a significantly shorter length of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit than the control group (0.90±0.29 hours vs. 1.29±0.42 hours, P < 0.001). For perioperative agitation, the PAED scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group (entering in the operating room waiting area: 8.5 vs. 9.2, P < 0.05; 30 minutes after postoperative recovery: 4.2 vs. 7.8, P < 0.05). In terms of pain scores, the FLACC scores of the intervention group were also significantly lower than those of the control group, both when entering the operating room waiting area ( 5.3 vs. 6.7, P < 0.05; 30 minutes after postoperative recovery: 2.1 vs. 4.9, P < 0.05). ConclusionsVideo-based educational intervention combined with maternal presence reduces the perioperative anxiety, pain and agitation of preschool children undergoing general anesthesia, and improved the compliance of anesthesia induction. It is recommended to promote this intervention measure in clinical practice.

ObjectiveExploring the role of microRNA126 (miRNA126) in chronic kidney disease combined with atherosclerosis (CKD AS) by regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway and the mechanism of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction in the intervention of CKD AS rats with 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding. MethodA total of 60 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, losartan group, and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. The CKD AS rat model was established by 5/6 nephrectomy combined with high-fat feeding for 10 weeks. The low, medium, and high dose groups (6.0, 12.0, 24.0 g·kg-1·d-1) of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and the losartan group (20 mg·kg-1·d-1) were gavaged, and the corresponding intervention was carried out for eight weeks. Then, the rats were killed, and samples were collected for corresponding detection. Fully automated biochemical analyzers were used to detect kidney function and blood lipids in rats: blood creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining of aortic tissue and pathological observation under a light microscope were carried out, and autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to determine the mRNA levels of miRNA126, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR in rats, and Western blot was used to determine the protein expression levels of phosphorylated (p)-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p -mTOR, mTOR, benzyl chloride 1 (Beclin-1), and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ/Ⅰ (LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ). ResultCompared with the sham operation group, the serum SCr, BUN, TC, TG, and LDL-C in the model group were significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the SCr, BUN, TC, TG, and LDL-C were decreased in the losartan group and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction (P<0.05). Compared with the sham operation group, thickening plaques, infiltration of mononuclear macrophages, a small number of foam cells, disordered arrangement of smooth muscle fibers in the tunica media, and increased collagen fibers were observed in the model group, and the lesions in the losartan group and Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction groups were alleviated compared with those in the model group. Compared with the model group, the number of autophagosomes and autophagy lysosomes increased in the medium and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction. Compared with the sham operation group, the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of the model group was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the mRNA expressions of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR were significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression of miRNA126 in the aortic tissue of rats in high, medium, and low dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction and losartan group was significantly increased (P<0.01), while the mRNA expressions of PI3K, Akt, and mTOR were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the sham operation group, the protein expressions of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p-mTOR, and mTOR in the model group were significantly increased (P<0.01), while the protein levels of Beclin-1, LC3Ⅰ, and LC3Ⅱ were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the protein expressions of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, p-mTOR, and mTOR in the losartan group and low, medium, and high dose groups of Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction were decreased (P<0.05), while the protein levels of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ were increased (P<0.05). ConclusionThe expression of miRNA126 is decreased in the aortic tissue of CKD AS rats, and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway is activated to inhibit autophagy flux. Shenshuai Xiezhuo decoction regulates the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway through miRNA126, restores the autophagy of aortic endothelial cells, protects the damage of CKD vessels, reduces the formation of As plaques, and slows the development of cardiovascular complications.
