OBJECTIVE To analyze the deep-seated impeding factors in the implementation process of the policy integrating retail pharmacies into the outpatient pooling system， and explore practical paths to improve policy implementation efficiency. METHODS Based on Smith’s policy implementation process model， an analytical framework was constructed. Selecting Hunan province as a typical sample， this study combined policy text analysis and semi-structured interviews to conduct an in-depth interpretation of relevant policy documents and interviewed a total of 42 key stakeholders from multiple parties， including medical insurance administrative departments， designated medical institutions， retail pharmacies， and insured persons， and the interview texts were analyzed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The study indicated that the effective implementation of this policy faces four dimensions of impediments： first， the policy itself suffered from systemic design problems and insufficient coordination， leading to source-based constraints； second， there was a lack of effective synergy mechanisms among implementing agencies， resulting in fragmented service and supervision capabilities， and their behaviors were distorted by interest-driven motives； third， there were cognitive biases regarding the policy among the target group， and their behaviors were distorted by interest-driven motives； fourth， environmental factors such as pressure on medical insurance funds and traditional medical-seeking concepts overlapped to restrict the space for policy implementation. Therefore， the following optimization strategies are proposed： strengthening top-level design to eliminate rule ambiguity and implementation deviation； improving multi-party synergy mechanisms to enhance policy operational efficiency； deepening policy interpretation and interest coordination to guide rational behavior among the target group； and breaking environmental barriers to build an external ecosystem adaptable to policy development， thereby promoting the high quality development of incorporating retail pharmacies into the outpatient pooling system.

Objective:To investigate the genetic etiology of 15 patients with suspected Marfan syndrome(MFS).Methods:Fifteen patients clinically suspected of having MFS who attended the Women and Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University between January 2020 and August 2024 were enrolled. Amniotic fluid samples from fetuses and EDTA-anticoagulated peripheral blood samples from the patients and their family members were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted and subjected to whole exome sequencing(WES). Variants identified in positive cases were further validated by Sanger sequencing. The pathogenicity of the detected variants was assessed according to the guidelines and supplemental criteria of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics(ACMG).Results:All 15 patients were found to carry variants in the FBN1 gene, including 9 pathogenic variants, 5 likely pathogenic variants, and 1 variant of uncertain significance(VUS). Notably, eight novel pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants not previously reported in the literature were identified: c. 213G>C, c. 469G>T, c. 3337+ 2dup, c. 4087+ 1G>T, c. 7331_7334dup, c. 8146del, c. 8227dup, and c. 8425_8426insG. According to the revised Ghent criteria(2010), only 2 patients could be clinically diagnosed with MFS prior to WES. However, after incorporating WES-derived molecular evidence, 8 patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for MFS.Conclusion:The combination of WES and clinical phenotype assessment can substantially improve the diagnostic yield for MFS. Furthermore, the identification of these novel FBN1 variants expands the mutational spectrum of the gene and provides valuable evidence for future genetic counselling, prenatal diagnosis, and pathogenicity interpretation of neighboring variants.

PURPOSE: Hidden blood loss (HBL) during the perioperative period significantly impacts postoperative recovery and complications, yet it is frequently disregarded. This study aimed to investigate the effects of tip-apex distance (TAD) and calcar-referenced tip-apex distance (calTAD) on HBL in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures utilizing proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA). The study also seeks to evaluate the possible decrease in HBL subsequent to PFNA treatment by optimizing nail positioning. METHOD: A historical cohort study was conducted from January 2020 to December 2022. Patients diagnosed with unilateral acute closed femoral intertrochanteric fracture and who underwent PFNA internal fixation surgery met the inclusion criteria, and were grouped according to the value of calTAD and TAD. The participants were divided into low TAD group (TAD<20 mm) and high TAD group (TAD≥20 mm); low calTAD group (calTAD<7.625 mm) and high calTAD group (calTAD≥7.625 mm), respectively. The primary outcome measures were intraoperative blood loss (including HBL, overt blood loss, and total blood loss). Continuous data were analyzed using an independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney U test, and categorical data were analyzed using the Pearson Chi-square test. Univariate analysis was used to evaluate the association between various indicators and perioperative HBL. A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis model was used to determine the independent factors affecting perioperative HBL. A p value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: A total of 131 patients were initially included, of which 80 were assigned to the calTAD group (with 61 in the high calTAD group and 19 in the low calTAD group), and 80 were assigned to the TAD group (with 34 in the high TAD group and 46 in the low TAD group). The average HBL for the low TAD group was 772.85 mL, whereas for the high TAD group it was 919.68 mL (p>0.05). The average HBL for the low calTAD group was 611.42 mL, whereas for the high calTAD group it was 904.97 mL (p<0.05). Subsequent analysis revealed that the patient's height, preoperative hemoglobin levels, changes in hemoglobin and hematocrit levels from pre- to post-surgery, and calTAD are independent risk factors influencing HBL. CONCLUSION In summary, our investigation revealed a significant correlation between the positioning of nails in PFNA and HBL during the perioperative period. By optimizing the placement of the cephalic nail, specifically by ensuring a calTAD of less than 7.625 mm, a significant decrease in HBL can be attained. Additionally, we identified that height, preoperative hemoglobin, differences in preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin and hematocrit, and the positioning of the cephalic nail were independent risk factors for HBL.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influenza vaccination coverage among kindergarten and primary school children in Zhejiang Province in 2023 and analyze the influencing factors, and to provide the basis for improving the effect of influenza vaccination in children. MethodsA multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 681 parents of children from 10 primary schools and kindergartens based on economic level and geographical distribution in Zhejiang Province, who participated in an online questionnaire survey, including basic information about the children and their parents, parents’ knowledge about influenza, and their willingness to vaccination. ResultsAmong the 3 681 parents surveyed, 33.82% (1 245/3 681) reported that their children received influenza vaccination in 2023. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that factors contributing to children’s influenza vaccination included both parents [adjusted OR (95%CI): 1.56 (1.32‒1.84)] and children [6.04 (5.04‒7.27)] having a history of influenza vaccination, parents’ conviction the influenza vaccine could protect children from severe diseases [1.43 (1.19‒1.74)], and the willingness of most parents would let their children get vaccinated [1.40 (1.13‒1.74)]. In contrast, vaccine hesitancy among parents [0.55 (0.43‒0.69)] and the belief that influenza is just a common cold [0.80 (0.65‒1.00)] were hindering factors. ConclusionThe influenza vaccination coverage among children is insufficient. Both the vaccination history of parents and children, as well as parents’ correct understanding of influenza and the effectiveness of influenza vaccine, significantly influence the influenza vaccination status in children. Efforts to address vaccine hesitancy and misconceptions about influenza are essential to improve vaccination rates.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic etiology of fetal skeletal dysplasia using whole exome sequencing (WES) and copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) techniques, and the feasibility of using WES as the first-tier method for such fetuses. METHODS: Seventy four fetuses with skeletal dysplasia detected by prenatal ultrasound at the Genetic Testing Center of the Women and Children's Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University from January 2020 to August 2024 were selected as the study subjects. Fetal muscle and peripheral blood samples of the pregnant women and their spouses were collected and subjected to WES analysis. CNV-seq was carried out on all fetal muscle tissue samples. And the results were compared with the CNVs indicated by WES. Genetic etiologies were analyzed across different subtypes of skeletal dysplasia. And the feasibility of using WES as the first-tier genetic test for similar fetuses was assessed, in addition with a systematic cost-effectiveness analysis. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: QFELL-YJ-2024-201). RESULTS: A total of 50 fetuses were diagnosed, which yielded a diagnostic rate of 67.57%. These included 6 chromosomal aneuploidies, 4 chromosomal CNVs and 40 monogenic disorders. The monogenic diseases had involved 46 variant sites in 23 pathogenic genes, among which 12 were unreported previously, including MYH3: c.735T>C, ALPL: c.1324C>T, NEK9: c.1973G>A, MAGEL2: c.2024_2025del, LMBR1: c.423+4914A>C, NEB: c.21273_21276del, COL1A1: c.2651G>C and c.2758G>C, ASPM: c.2473delinsGA, TBX5: c.704G>A, DYNC2H1: c.10893del, and DYNC2I2: c.1270C>T. Substantial concordance was reached between WES-derived CNV calls and CNV-seq findings. No clinically significant CNV was exclusively detected by CNV-seq. Cost-effectiveness modeling demonstrated that implementing WES as the first-tier genetic testing method could reduce the total expenditure when WES unit cost remained below 6.4 folds that of the CNV-seq. CONCLUSION Genetic variants including single nucleotide variations (SNV) of monogenic disorders, chromosomal aneuploidies and genomic CNVs are important causes for fetal skeletal dysplasia. WES is an accurate and efficient method for analyzing the etiology of fetal skeletal dysplasia, particularly in those with a family history of similar phenotype or maternal history of adverse pregnancies.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the detection rate of copy number variations (CNVs) in fetuses with isolated Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) and pregnancy outcomes in order to provide a basis for genetic counseling. METHODS: One hundred and eighty eight fetuses who underwent chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) due to isolated CAKUT detected by prenatal ultrasonography at Qingdao Women and Children's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2024 were selected as the study subjects. According to the ultrasound findings, the fetuses were divided into 8 groups, including renal parenchymal dysplasia group, renal cystic dysplasia group, simple renal parenchymal echo enhancement group, abnormal development of renal collecting system group, duplicated kidney group, ectopic kidney group, horseshoe kidney group, and bladder/posterior urethral abnormalities group. The detection of CNVs was retrospectively analyzed, and the pregnant women were followed up to summarize their pregnancy outcomes. 2 test (or Fisher's exact probability method) was used to compare the CNV detection rates between the groups. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Qingdao Women and Children's Hospital (Ethics No.: QFELL-YJ-2025-85). RESULTS: Among the 188 fetuses with isolated CAKUT, 23 CNVs (12.23%) were detected, of which 13 cases (6.91%) were pathogenic and 10 cases were rated as variants of unknown significance (VOUS). Among the 8 groups, the three groups with the highest proportion were renal cystic dysplasia group, renal metaplasia group, and renal parenchymal dysplasia group. The detection rates of pathogenic CNVs in the three groups were 1.79% (1/56), 6.78% (4/59), and 16.67% (5/30), respectively, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Parental verification was conducted on 12 fetuses detected with the CNVs, confirming that 2 cases were de novo and 10 were inherited from parents with a normal phenotype. After genetic counseling, the parents of 9 fetuses opted to terminate the pregnancy, while 11 chose to continue with the pregnancy, and 3 were lost to follow-up. At the time of last follow-up, the youngest offspring was 5 months old and the oldest was 3 years and 11 months old. One child had renal aplasia, and two were born with hydronephrosis, which have been cured through surgery. The remainders had no obvious abnormality with their growth and development. CONCLUSION CMA testing has important value for prenatal diagnosis of isolated CAKUT. In this study, the detection rate of pathogenic CNVs has increased sequentially in fetuses with renal cystic developmental abnormalities, renal collecting system developmental abnormalities, and renal parenchymal dysplasia, while there was no significant difference in the detection rate of CNVs. For fetuses with isolated CAKUT detected by prenatal ultrasound, CMA testing should be considered, and reasonable pregnancy decisions should be made based on the results of prenatal ultrasound and parental verification.

ObjectiveTo optimize Tusizi prescription for ovarian reserve function based on the uniform design method combined with in vitro experiments and explore the underlying mechanisms of this prescription. MethodsThe uniform design method was adopted to design a 5-factor 11-level experiment on the water extract of Tusizi prescription. The cell-counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was employed to measure the viability of human ovarian granulosa cells （KGN cells） treated with Tusizi prescription extracts 1-11， and multivariate regression analysis was performed to determine the optimal herb ratio in this prescription. The potential targets of active ingredients in the prescription were retrieved from traditional Chinese medicine systems pharmacology database and analysis platform （TCMSP） and encyclopedia of traditional Chinese medicine （ETCM）. The common targets shared by Tusizi prescription and diminished ovarian reserve （DOR） were selected and imported into search tool for the retrieval of interacting genes/proteins （STRING） to construct a protein-protein interaction （PPI） network and into gene function annotation database （DAVID） for gene ontology （GO） analysis. The CCK-8 assay was used to measure the viability of ovarian germline stem cells treated with hyperoside. The CCK-8 assay， 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine （EdU） staining， terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick-end labeling （TUNEL）， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） were employed to examine the proliferation， apoptosis， and estradiol （E₂） secretion of KGN cells treated with the water extract 11 of Tusizi prescription （Cuscutae Semen-Lycii Fructus-Dioscoreae Rhizoma-Poria-Nelumbinis Semen 4∶4∶2∶1∶1） and the optimal prescription screened by uniform design. On this basis， the optimal prescription composition for maximizing the effect on ovarian reserve function was determined and preliminary insights into the underlying mechanisms of this prescription were gained. ResultsA total of 147 common targets were obtained from 278 targets of Tusizi prescription and 1 721 targets of DOR. GO analysis revealed 194 biological processes， primarily involving cellular responses to exogenous compound stimuli， negative regulation of apoptotic process， and positive regulation of cell proliferation. It identified 84 cellular components， including cell membrane， mitochondria， and neuronal cell body， as well as 144 molecular functions such as enzyme binding， estrogen response element binding， and nuclear estrogen receptor binding. The multivariate regression analysis revealed that when Tusizi prescription was composed of Cuscutae Semen， Lycii Fructus， Dioscoreae Rhizoma， Poria， and Nelumbinis Semen in a ratio of 27∶30∶17∶12∶14， the water extract of Tusizi prescription had the best effect of enhancing the viability of KGN cells. CCK-8 results showed that compared with the normal group， the hyperoside group demonstrated increased viability of ovarian germline stem cells （P<0.01）. The CCK-8， EdU， and ELISA results showed that compared with the normal group， the optimal prescription screened by uniform design and the water extract 11 of Tusizi prescription increased the proliferation and reduced the apoptosis of KGN cells （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ELISA results showed that compared with the normal group， the water extract 11 of Tusizi prescription promoted the E₂ secretion of KGN cells （P<0.05）， while the optimal prescription screened by uniform design had no significant effect on the E₂ secretion. ConclusionBoth the water extract 11 of Tusizi prescription （Cuscutae Semen-Lycii Fructus-Dioscoreae Rhizoma-Poria-Nelumbinis Semen 4∶4∶2∶1∶1） and the optimal prescription screened by uniform design （Cuscutae Semen-Lycii Fructus-Dioscoreae Rhizoma-Poria-Nelumbinis Semen 27∶30∶17∶12∶14） can improve the ovarian reserve function， and the former has better effect. Tusizi prescription can modulate biological processes （such as cell proliferation and apoptosis） and molecular functions （such as enzyme binding and estrogen response element binding） through active components like hyperoside to promote the proliferation and E₂ secretion and inhibit the apoptosis of KGN cells， thereby protecting the ovarian reserve function.
