BackgroundPreventing and intervening in adolescent gaming disorder is of significant practical importance. Gaming motivation is strongly linked to gaming addiction and serves a key function in comprehending and addressing addictive gaming behaviors. However， the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder remains unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder among adolescents， so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of gaming disorder in this population. MethodsFrom January to February 2024， a cluster sampling method was employed to select 1 414 adolescents from four middle schools in Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality as participants in the study. Online Game Motivation Scale （OGMS） and Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents （GADIS-A） were administered. Network analysis methods were utilized to investigate the relationships between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder. ResultsThe network edge weights revealed that achievement motivation was positively correlated with impaired game control ability， continued gaming despite negative consequences and the frequency of symptom occurrence （r=0.115， 0.050， 0.076， P<0.05）. Social motivation was negatively correlated with negative consequences （r=-0.054， P<0.05），while immersion motivation was positively correlated with continued gaming despite negative consequences （r=0.032， P<0.05）. Achievement motivation exhibited the highest strength centrality （1.157） among the three components of gaming motivation. ConclusionThe connections between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder exhibit distinct patterns， with each motivational component influencing gaming disorder through specific symptom pathway. Among these components， achievement motivation plays the most critical role in the interplay between gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder. ［Funded by Chongqing Science and Health Joint Medical Science and Technology Innovation Projects General Projects （number， 2023MSXM133）］

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

The payment methods,such as Diagnosis Related Group(DRG)for hospitalization and capitation for outpatient treat-ment,have achieved positive results in protecting the rights and interests of insured persons and improving the efficiency of the use of medical insurance funds.However,for patients with chronic diseases and rehabilitation nursing,the hospitalization period is long and the conditions complicated,and the payment method of DRGs is not reasonable.It analyzes the experiences of paying for long-term hospital cases in the US.and Germany from the aspect of reform process,payment method and regulatory measures.In order to pro-vide references for the reform of per-diem payment in rehabilitation nursing and other long-term hospitalized cases,it puts forward suggestions from aspects of realizing value care,reflecting individual differences,exploring complex payment methods,improving data quality and establishing constraint mechanism.

Objective To explore the value of pelvic CT angiography(CTA)digital three-dimensional reconstruction model(abbreviated as"three-dimensional model")in the diagnosis of female pelvic mass.Methods A total of 98 patients with pelvic mass who were hospitalized and operated in Xi'an People's Hos-pital(Xi'an Fourth Hospital)from January 2021 to April 2023 were selected.All patients underwent B-ultra-sound and CTA examination before operation,and the original data of CTA were collected.The digital three-dimensional model of pelvic mass was established by three-dimensional reconstruction software,and the source of pelvic mass was judged according to the blood supply of pelvic mass.Taking postoperative pathological di-agnosis as the gold standard,the coincidence rate between different preoperative diagnosis methods(B-ultra-sound,CTA examination and three-dimensional model)was compared.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to evaluate the efficacy of different preoperative diagnostic methods in judging the ovarian origin of pelvic tumors.Results A total of 130 pelvic masses were included in 98 patients,and the average maximum diameter of the mass was(71.61±3.03)mm,including 83 ovarian masses and 47 non-ovarian masses.Taking postoperative pathological diagnosis as the gold standard,the diagnostic coincidence rate of the preoperative three-dimensional model was 72.31％,which was higher than that of B-ultrasound(58.46％)and CTA(52.31％),and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.001).The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,accuracy,Kappa value,and area under the ROC curve were 79.51％,91.49％,94.29％,71.67％,83.85％,0.67 and 0.855,respectively,when the three-dimensional model showed that the blood supply of the mass originated from ovarian artery or uterine artery-ovarian branch.Conclusion The three-dimensional model of pelvic CTA can directly display the blood supply source,characteristics of mass,and the relationship between mass and adjacent organs,which can guide the clinical treatment.It has certain clinical value to judge the ovarian origin of pelvic mass by using ovarian artery and uterine artery-ovarian branch.

The policy of long-term prescription for chronic diseases in China is gradually being improved and implemented， and external long-term prescription dispensing is being encouraged. The long-term prescription policy runs through the links of drug supply， equipment， use and policy， involving government departments such as medical security and health， as well as stakeholders such as patients， medical institutions and designated detail pharmacies. There are still some problems in the external dispensing of long-term prescriptions， such as the disunity of drug catalogue and the need for coordination among regulatory parties in the policy link； the need to improve the participation enthusiasm and service ability in the equipment link； the increased difficulty of prescription management， the need to improve the circulation platform in the use link. The promotion of external long-term prescription policy requires health insurance， medical service， and the medicine industry co-development， multi-party participation， and policy coordination. Among them， the “dual channel” policy， the policy of centralized medicine procurement， and the pharmacy included in outpatient overall management policy have all played a positive role in promoting the implementation of external long-term prescription dispensing for chronic diseases. It is necessary to improve supporting policies and implement regulatory responsibilities in the policy link， promote drug classification and service capabilities in the equipment link， improve the electronic prescription circulation platform， and strengthen prescription management in use link， so as to promote the implementation of external long-term prescription dispensing.

Constructing a multi-tiered healthcare security system can meet the diverse and individualized healthcare service demand of the general public.Public hospitals,as the main providers of healthcare services in China,effectively integrate with commercial health insurance,which can accelerate the implementation of high-quality healthcare services,promote innovative development,and optimize product coverage and operational efficiency for commercial health insurance,achieving a win-win situation.Taking Shanghai as the research object,it analyzes the supply and demand status of multi-tiered healthcare security in Shanghai based on population characteristics,economic level,healthcare resources,and policy environment.It identifies the difficulties in the current collaboration between public hospitals and commercial insurance.Finally,it proposes exploring the expansion of independent development space for specialized services,improving the level of coordination between commercial insurance institutions and public hospitals in health management services,promoting the management and sharing of data,strengthening the protection of innovative medicines and devices by commercial insurance,in order to promote the coordinated development of commercial insurance and public hospitals.

Based on on-site research in Shanghai,it takes a supply-side perspective to examine the current status of cooperation between Private Health Insurance(PHI)and the pharmaceutical industry.It discusses the issues existing in the cooperation and proposes policy recommendations for their coordinated development.It identifies three main cooperation models and products,which are the public-private integrated product"Hui Min Bao",the special drug insurance led by insurance companies,and the disease insurance for patients led by pharmaceutical enterprises.However,these models commonly face challenges such as the limited policy support,a lack of standardized cooperation between the two sectors,insufficient information and data exchange,immature innovative payment models,and difficulties in the application of innovative drugs.It argues that the key to coordinated development lies in leveraging the strategic purchasing power of PHI,devising rational payment strategies and standards to achieve a win-win situation for insurers,enterprises,healthcare providers and patients.Therefore,policy recommendations are proposed from the perspectives of establishing mechanisms,breaking barriers,strategic procurement,and supporting measures.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the number of removed lymph nodes(RLN)and patient prognosis during radical surgery for extensive cervical cancer(CC).Methods:Clinical data of 21416 pa-tients with CC who underwent radical hysterectomy between January 1,2004 to August 31,2018 in the Chinese Cervical Cancer Clinical Study was retrospectively reviewed.Restricted cubic spline(RCS)was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between the number of RLN and prognosis.The patients were divided into three groups according to the RCS and RLN number:1-17 group(8733 cases),18-26 group(8189 cases),and≥ 27 group(4494 cases).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-Rank tests were used to compare the OS rates and DFS rates between groups at 3 and 5 years.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the prognostic mortality risk.Results:① RCS results showed a U-shaped nonlinear dose-response relationship be-tween the number of RLN and prognosis(P＜0.01).When the number of RLN was less than 26,the risk of death decreased as the number of RLN increased,and the risk was lowest when the number of RLN was 26.②There were statistically significant differences(P＜0.05)in age,histological type,tumor diameter,nerve invasion,uterine invasion,vaso-lymph node space invasion,cervical invasion,number of lymph node metastasis,whether preopera-tive adjuvant therapy was received,postoperative adjuvant therapy,and whether postoperative adjuvant therapy was standardized among the 3 groups(P＜0.05).③Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 5-year OS of the 1-17 group,18-26 group,and ≥ 27 group were 90.23％,92.28％,and 91.61％,respectively,and the 5-year DFS were 85.32％,87.90％,and 87.18％,respectively.The differences between the three groups were sta-tistically significant(P＜0.01).④The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that RLN number in the range of 1-17 was a significant risk factor for the 3-and 5-year OS and DFS,when compared to the 18-26 RLN group(HR＞1,P＜0.05).Conclusions:RLN number may be one of the prognostic indicators of CC.When the number of RLNs is between 18-26,the prognosis of the patient may be better.The number of RLN in the range of 1-17 may increase the risk of recurrence or death in CC patients.
