Aims: To investigate the role of chemerin reduction in mediating exercise-induced Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion and the amelioration of pancreatic β-cell function in obesity.
Materials And Methods: Obesity models were established using wild-type and chemerin systemic knockout mice, followed by 8 weeks of moderate-intensity continuous aerobic exercise training. Serum chemerin levels, GLP-1 synthesis, glucose tolerance, pancreatic β-cell function, structure, and apoptosis were assessed.

This study investigated the predictive value of combining peripheral blood indicators with procalcitonin clearance rate (PCTc) to assess mortality risk in cancer patients with sepsis, aiming to develop a more sensitive and specific clinical tool. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 393 cancer patients with sepsis admitted to South China Hospital of Shenzhen University from January 2019 to January 2024. Collected data included clinical demographics, laboratory indicators such as white blood cell count, neutrophil count (NEUT), platelet count (PLT), lymphocyte count (LYC), C-reactive protein, procalcitonin (PCT), alanine aminotransferase, and the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to inspired oxygen fraction, as well as functional scores like Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment.
