    Abstract Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measures glucose levels every 1 to 15 minutes and is widely used in clinical and research contexts. Statistical packages and algorithms reduce the time-consuming and error-prone process of manually calculating CGM metrics and contribute to standardizing CGM metrics defined by international consensus. The aim of this systematic review is to summarize existing data on (1) statistical
    Methods: A systematic literature search in PubMed and EMBASE was conducted on September 19, 2023. We also searched Google Scholar and Google Search until October 12, 2023 as sources of gray literature and performed reference checks of the included literature. Articles in English and Danish were included. This systematic review is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022378163).
    Results: A total of 8731 references were screened and 46 references were included. We identified 23 statistical packages for the analysis of CGM data. The statistical packages could calculate many metrics of the 2022 CGM consensus and non-consensus CGM metrics, and 22/23 (96%) statistical packages were freely available. Also, 23 statistical algorithms were identified. The statistical algorithms could be divided into three groups based on content: (1) CGM data reduction (eg, clustering of CGM data), (2) composite CGM outcomes, and (3) other CGM metrics.
    Conclusion: This systematic review provides detailed tabular and textual up-to-date descriptions of the contents of statistical packages and statistical algorithms for retrospective analysis of CGM data.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the effect of standard care (SoC) combined with supervised in-bed cycling (Bed-Cycle) or booklet exercises (Book-Exe) versus SoC in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
    Methods: In this randomised controlled trial, 186 patients with CAP were assigned to SoC (n = 62), Bed-Cycle (n = 61), or Book-Exe (n = 63). Primary outcome length of stay (LOS) was analysed with analysis of covariance. Secondary outcomes, 90-day readmission and 180-day mortality, were analysed with Cox proportional hazard regression and readmission days with negative-binominal regression.
    Results: LOS was -2% (95% CI -24 to 25%) and -1% (95% CI -22 to 27%) for Bed-Cycle and Book-Exe, compared to SoC. 90-day readmission was 35.6% for SoC, 27.6% for Bed-Cycle, and 21.3% for Book-Exe. Adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) for 90-day readmission was 0.63 (95% CI 0.33-1.21) and 0.54 (95% CI 0.27-1.08) for Bed-Cycle and Book-Exe compared to SoC. aHR for 90-day readmission for combined exercise was 0.59 (95% CI 0.33-1.03) compared to SoC. aHR for 180-day mortality was 0.84 (95% CI 0.27-2.60) and 0.82 (95% CI 0.26-2.55) for Bed-Cycle and Book-Exe compared to SoC. Number of readmission days was 226 for SoC, 161 for Bed-Cycle, and 179 for Book-Exe. Incidence rate ratio for readmission days was 0.73 (95% CI 0.48-1.10) and 0.77 (95% CI 0.51-1.15) for Bed-Cycle and Book-Exe compared to SoC.
    Conclusion: Although supervised exercise training during admission with CAP did not reduce LOS or mortality, this trial suggests its potential to reduce readmission risk and number of readmission days.

    Abstract Bacterial aerobic respiration may determine the outcome of antibiotic treatment in experimental settings, but the clinical relevance of bacterial aerobic respiration for the outcome of antibiotic treatment has not been tested. Therefore, we hypothesized that bacterial aerobic respiration is higher in sputum from patients with acute lower respiratory tract infections (aLRTI), than in sputum from patients with chronic LRTI (cLRTI), where the bacteria persist despite antibiotic treatment. The bacterial aerobic respiration was determined according to the dynamics of the oxygen (O

    Abstract Background: Adiponectin is secreted by adipocytes and is inversely associated with obesity. Given the association between low body mass index (BMI) and higher mortality risk after community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), we hypothesized that high adiponectin levels are associated with a higher risk of adverse clinical outcomes in patients with CAP.
    Methods: In a prospective cohort study of 502 patients hospitalized with CAP, adiponectin was measured in serum at admission. The associations between adiponectin and clinical outcomes were estimated with logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, and measures of obesity (BMI, waist circumference or body fat percentage).
    Results: Adiponectin was associated with higher 90-day mortality for each 1 μg/mL increase [OR 1.02, 95% CI (1.00, 1.04),
    Conclusion: Adiponectin was positively associated with mortality and readmission. The association with mortality depended on low body fat, whereas the association with readmission risk was independent of obesity.

    Abstract Background: Glycemic variability (GV) has only been sparsely studied in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). This study aimed to quantify in-hospital GV in CAP patients, including determining the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and glucocorticoid (GC) treatment on GV.
    Methods: This is a prospective cohort study of CAP patients (N = 40) with or without T2DM and treated or not with GCs. The primary endpoint was GV measured as glucose standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and postprandial glucose excursions (PPGE) based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Analysis of glucose data was split into daytime and nighttime when possible.
    Results: Patients included had a mean age of 74 (range 55 to 91) years. SD (95%CI) increased by a factor of 1.93 (1.40 to 2.66) and 2.29 (1.38 to 3.81) in patients with T2DM and not treated with GCs during the daytime and the nighttime, respectively (both P < 0.01), and by a factor of 1.42 (1.04 to 1.97) in patients treated with GCs but without T2DM during the daytime (P = 0.031) compared to patients without T2DM and not treated with GCs. CV (95%CI) increased by 5.1 (0.0 to 10.1) and 8.1 (1.0 to 15.2) percentage points during the daytime and the nighttime, respectively, in patients with T2DM and not treated with GCs compared to patients without T2DM and not treated with GCs (P = 0.046 and P = 0.026, respectively). PPGE (95% CI) increased during lunch by 2.5 (0.7 to 4.3) mmol/L (45 (13 to 77) mg/dL) in patients with T2DM and treated with GCs compared to patients without T2DM and not treated with GCs (P = 0.018).
    Conclusions: CAP patients receiving GCs, especially those with T2DM, are at great risk of developing high GV and therefore require clinical attention to mitigate GV. This applies particularly during the daytime. Results support the 1 to 2-h post-lunch screening procedure for glucocorticoid-induced hyperglycemia in patients without diabetes. SD was positively correlated with hospital length of stay.

    Abstract Background: Impaired functional status is a risk factor for hospitalization in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The aim was to determine the influence of functional status and physical activity level on severe outcomes, including length of stay, admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), readmission, and mortality in patients with CAP. Methods: A prospective cohort study among patients hospitalized with CAP. Functional status was assessed with the Barthel index and grip strength, and physical activity level was assessed using the international physical activity questionnaire. Linear regression was used to assess the association with length of stay, and logistic regression was used to assess the risk of severe outcomes. Results: Among 355 patients admitted with CAP, 18% had a low Barthel index (<80), 45% had a low grip strength, and 75% had a low physical activity level. Low Barthel index was associated with increased risk of ICU admission (OR 3.6, 95% CI 1.2−10.9), longer length of stay (27.9%, 95% CI 2.3−59.7%), readmission within 30, 90, and 180 days (OR 2.1−2.4, p < 0.05), and mortality within 90 and 180 days (OR 4.2−5.0, p < 0.05). Low grip strength was associated with increased risk of 90 days readmission (OR 1.6, 95% CI 1.0−2.6, p < 0.05) and mortality within 30, 90, and 180 days (OR 2.6−3.2, p < 0.05). Low physical activity level was associated with increased risk of readmission within 90 and 180 days (OR 1.8−2.1, p < 0.05) and mortality within 30, 90, and 180 days (OR 3.3−5.5, p < 0.05). Conclusions: Impaired functional status and low physical activity level were associated with a longer length of stay and increased risk of ICU admission, readmission, and mortality in patients hospitalized with CAP. Routine assessment of functional status and physical activity level in clinical care could enable early identification of individuals with excess risk for a poor prognosis.

    Abstract Background: Bed rest with limited physical activity is common during admission. The aim was to determine the association between daily step count and physical activity levels during and after admission with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and the risk of readmission and mortality.
    Methods: A prospective cohort study of 166 patients admitted with CAP. Step count and physical activity were assessed with accelerometers during and after admission and were categorised as sedentary, light, or moderate-vigorous physical activity. Linear regression was used to assess the association between step count and length of stay. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between step count, physical activity level, and risk of readmission and mortality.
    Results: Patients admitted with CAP were sedentary, light physically active, and moderate-to-vigorous physically active 96.4%, 2.6%, and 0.9% of their time, respectively, with 1356 steps/d. For every 500-step increase in daily step count on day 1, the length of stay was reduced by 6.6%. For every 500-step increase in daily step count during admission, in-hospital and 30-day mortality was reduced. Increased light and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity during admission were associated with reduced risk of in-hospital and 30-day mortality. After discharge, patients increased their daily step count to 2654 steps/d and spent more time performing light and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. For every 500-step increase in daily step count after discharge, the risk of readmission was reduced. Higher moderate-to-vigorous physical activity after discharge was associated with a reduced risk of readmission.
    Conclusions: Increased physical activity during admission was associated with a reduced length of stay and risk of mortality, whereas increased physical activity after discharge was associated with a reduced risk of readmission in patients with CAP. Interventions focusing on increasing physical activity levels should be prioritised to improve the prognosis of patients admitted with CAP.

    Abstract Background: Different pathogens can cause community-acquired pneumonia (CAP); however, the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has re-emphasized the vital role of respiratory viruses as a cause of CAP. The aim was to explore differences in metabolic profile, body composition, physical capacity, and inflammation between patients hospitalized with CAP caused by different etiology.
    Methods: A prospective study of Danish patients hospitalized with CAP caused by SARS-CoV-2, influenza, or bacteria. Fat (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) were assessed with bioelectrical impedance analysis. Physical activity and capacity were assessed using questionnaires and handgrip strength. Plasma (p)-glucose, p-lipids, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), p-adiponectin, and cytokines were measured.
    Results: Among 164 patients with CAP, etiology did not affect admission levels of glucose, HbA1c, adiponectin, or lipids. Overall, 15.2% had known diabetes, 6.1% had undiagnosed diabetes, 51.3% had pre-diabetes, 81% had hyperglycemia, and 60% had low HDL-cholesterol, with no difference between groups. Body mass index, FM, and FFM were similar between groups, with 73% of the patients being characterized with abdominal obesity, although waist circumference was lower in patients with COVID-19. Physical capacity was similar between groups. More than 80% had low handgrip strength and low physical activity levels. Compared to patients with influenza, patients with COVID-19 had increased levels of interferon (IFN)-γ (mean difference (MD) 4.14; 95% CI 1.36-12.58; p = 0.008), interleukin (IL)-4 (MD 1.82; 95% CI 1.12-2.97; p = 0.012), IL-5 (MD 2.22; 95% CI 1.09-4.52; p = 0.024), and IL-6 (MD 2.41; 95% CI 1.02-5.68; p = 0.044) and increased IFN-γ (MD 6.10; 95% CI 2.53-14.71; p < 0.001) and IL-10 (MD 2.68; 95% CI 1.53-4.69; p < 0.001) compared to patients with bacterial CAP, but no difference in IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-8, IL-18, IL-12p70, C-reactive protein, and adiponectin.
    Conclusion: Despite higher inflammatory response in patients with COVID-19, metabolic profile, body composition, and physical capacity were similar to patients with influenza and bacterial CAP.
