Status of continuous glucose monitoring use and management in tertiary hospitals of China: a cross-sectional study by Xiaoqin Liu, Hongmei Dai, Liping Wu, Yong Zhao, Zumin Shi, Qin Lin, Liping Chen

“…Objective This study aims to reveal the use and management status of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in tertiary hospitals in China and to determine the potential factors affecting the application of CGM, based on which more effective solutions would be produced and implemented.Design An online, cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2021 to December 2021.Setting Eighty-three tertiary hospitals in China were involved.Participants Eighty-three head nurses and 281 clinical nurses were obtained.Outcome Current condition of CGM use and management, the factors that hinder the use and management of CGM, scores of current CGM use and management, as well as their influencing factors, were collected.Results Among the 83 hospitals surveyed, 57 (68.7%) hospitals used CGM for no more than 10 patients per month. …”

On the continuity of principal eigenvalues for boundary value problems with indefinite weight function with respect to radius of balls in ℝN by Ghasem Alizadeh Afrouzi

“…We investigate the continuity of principal eigenvalues (i.e., eigenvalues corresponding to positive eigenfunctions) for the boundary value problem −Δu(x)=λg(x)u(x), x∈BR(0);u(x)=0, |x|=R, where BR(0) is a ball in ℝN, and g is a smooth function, and we show that λ1+(R) and λ1−(R) are continuous functions of R.…”

Analysis of a High-Dimensional Mathematical Model for Plant Virus Transmission with Continuous and Impulsive Roguing Control by Guangming Qiu, Sanyi Tang, Mengqi He

“…In the present paper, we propose the mathematical models for plant virus transmission with continuous and impulsive roguing control. For the model with continuous control strategies, the threshold values for the existences and stabilities of multiple equilibria have been given, and the effect of roguing strategies on the threshold values is also addressed. …”

Ceramic Hollow Fibre Constructs for Continuous Perfusion and Cell Harvest from 3D Hematopoietic Organoids by Mark C. Allenby, Asma Tahlawi, José C. F. Morais, Kang Li, Nicki Panoskaltsis, Athanasios Mantalaris

“…This hollow fibre bioreactor (HFBR) required a smaller per-cell medium requirement and operated at cell densities > 10-fold higher than current 2D methods whilst allowing for continuous cell harvest through HFs. Herein, we propose HFs to improve 3D cell culture nutrient and metabolite diffusion, increase culture volume and cell density, and continuously harvest products for translational cell therapy biomanufacturing protocols.…”
