Background: Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) may be worsened by early systemic insults. We aimed to investigate the association of early systemic insults with outcomes of critically ill patients with severe SAE.
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis using data from the French OUTCOMEREA prospective multicenter database.

Insulinoma, a rare pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, stealthily lurks within the pancreas, often evading detection until its distinctive symptom, recurrent hypoglycemia, comes to the surface. This case report aims to highlight the significance of a multidisciplinary approach in the management of this uncommon neuroendocrine tumor by discussing the diagnostic, therapeutic, and follow-up difficulties encountered in an older adult presenting with atypical symptoms of insulinoma.

The increasing demand for non-invasive and non-enzymatic glucose sensors is driven by the objective of eliminating the need for blood pricks from the body and enabling enzyme-free detection of glucose for diagnosing diabetes mellitus. To address this need, we synthesized Ni MOF-MXene (Ni) hybrid material through a one-pot synthesis method, which acts as a catalyst to detect salivary glucose using an extended gate field effect transistor (EGFET) method. The resulting sensor exhibits good selectivity towards glucose over common interfering molecules such as sucrose, fructose, maltose, uric acid, and ascorbic acid under physiological conditions in saliva.

Background And Objective: There is a lack of data on the impact of hypoglycemia agents, especially metformin, on prognosis for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). Our aim was to investigate the association between hypoglycemia agents, especially metformin, and long-term survival outcomes for patients with NMIBC treated with bacillus Calmette-Guérin.
Methods: All patients with NMIBC treated with intravesical BCG therapy from 2001 to 2020 were identified in a territory-wide database in Hong Kong.
