Virtual Endocrinology Care Emphasizing Data-Driven Insights and Continuous Engagement and Its Impact on Glycemic Outcomes in Patients With Uncontrolled Diabetes: A Real-world Retrospective Case Series.

Background: Steady Health's novel virtual care model incorporates continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and a multidisciplinary approach to timely person-centered diabetes care.

Objective: This real-world retrospective case series explores the early glycemic outcomes of its patients with uncontrolled diabetes.

Methods: All patients of Steady Health who had an initial time in range (TIR) below 70% from their first 4 weeks of available CGM data and who had completed onboarding by February 2021 were included in this analysis.

The use of dermal autograft for fascial repair of TRAM flap donor sites.

Closure of fascia after transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap has usually been performed with direct closure or synthetic material. The dermal autograft removed from zone IV of the flap is an alternative to reinforce fascial closure. Record of the patients who had been undergone breast and head and neck reconstruction by TRAM flap between 1998-2008 were retrieved.

Brief report: The use of dermal autograft for fascial repair of TRAM flap donor sites.

Reconstruction of the breast and other tissues by the transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap is an accepted, reliable technique with a high success rate. Closure of the anterior rectus sheath defect that results from this flap has been the subject of debate, since hernia formation is considered a risk. We have reviewed 20 patients from a consecutive series of free TRAM and pedicled TRAM flaps using dermal autograft removed from zone IV of the flap and 117 patients using mesh, and assessed the complication of these techniques.
