Background: There is a lack of clinical evidence on the efficacy and safety of transitioning from a thrice-daily pre-mixed insulin or basal-prandial regimen to insulin deglu-dec/aspart (IDegAsp) therapy, with insufficient data from the Chinese popu-lation.
Aim: To demonstrate the efficacy, safety, and treatment satisfaction associated with the transition to IDegAsp in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: In this 12-week open-label, non-randomized, single-center, pilot study, patients with T2DM receiving thrice-daily insulin or intensive insulin treatment were transitioned to twice-daily injections of insulin IDegAsp.

Introduction: is a formidable pathogen that poses a significant threat to immunocompromised and might cause rare atypical forms of the disease especially complicated with coinfection.
Case: We present a case of a patient with meningoencephalitis, endocarditis, sepsis, and osteomyelitis, highlighting the complexities of managing disseminated polymicrobial infection. A 64-year-old female with multiple myeloma treated with chemotherapy presented with fever, altered mental status, nausea, and diarrhea to the emergency department.

Excretory-secretory (ES) products from parasitic helminths contain immunomodulatory molecules, which can regulate host immune responses. These immunomodulatory molecules are crucial for successful parasitism, and play roles in tissue migration, maturation, and reproduction. Some target pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), including toll-like receptor, C-type lectin receptor, receptor for advanced glycation end products, and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor.

Purpose: Fractional nasal exhaled NO (FnNO), fractional exhaled NO (FeNO) and lung function tests were performed in children with moderate-to-severe persistent allergic rhinitis (AR) to investigate the significance of the above indices in the assessment and diagnosis of children with AR.
Methods: A total of 135 children with persistent AR were selected and divided into moderate-to-severe and mild groups; serum total immunoglobulin E (IgE), peripheral blood eosinophil counts (EOS), FnNO, FeNO, and lung function tests were performed.
Results: Children in the moderate-to-severe group had increased levels of FnNO and FeNO and decreased levels of forced expiratory flow at 75% of forced vital capacity as a percentage of the predicted value (FEF75%) and maximum mid-term expiratory flow as a percentage of the predicted value (MMEF%) .
