Objective To provide health administrative departments with parameters for formulating community health service policies. Methods An analysis was made by conducting practical surveys and downloading from data banks. Results With the use of district hospitals, community health service centers and family beds, the average expenses per case for cerebral infarction and secondary infection of chronic bronchitis, the first two of 10 diseases analyzed, were respectively 7 074 57 and 8 730 27 yuan, 7 129 20 and 4 790 32 yuan, and 709 45 and 645 27 yuan. Conclusion Treatment of clearly diagnosed chronic noninfectious diseases in medical institutions of different tiers and by different means will incur different medical expenses and the rational use of family beds is a three win policy for the hospital, the insurance company and the patient.

Proceeding from the needs of the reform in the medical and health system and in view of the fact that bringing community health service into line with urhan workers basic medical insurance has become an explicit macro policy of the State, the authors, on the basis of the actual conditions and reform activities in various parts of the country, studied specific and viable policies for the implementation of the macro policy. They explored items of community health service that could be brought into the scope of basic medical insurance, methods of implementation, and control measures, thus offering suggestions to most regions in the country on the adoption of policies for linking community health service with workers basic medical insurance. The paper outlines the background, objective, perspective, methods and conclusion of the studies.

Objective To evaluate the value of serum uric acid(UA)levels with reference to the age,waist circumference,and body mass index(BMI)in predicting the metabolic syndrome(MS)in obese children.Methods A total of 300 obese children,including 180 boys and 120 girls,were enrolled in this study.The height,BMI,waist and hip circumference,blood pressure,serum glucose,insulin and lipid profile in all participants were measured.Oral glucose tolerance test and insulin releasing test were performed.The boys or girls were divided into 4 groups according to the 4 quantile of UA level,respectively.The clinical characteristics and correlation of UA with the clinical indexes and MS components were compared.The binary Logistic regression analysis was applied in the risk of MS and its components for the 4 groups of obese children.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve)of UA level,age,waist circumference and BMI were used to predict the MS.Results UA level was increased with the increase of age,waist circumference and BMI,and the UA level was significantly correlated with triacylglycerol,postprandial 2 h glucose(2 h PG)(r=0.196,0.174 in boys;r=0.291,0.179 in girls).In boys,the adjusted odds ratio and 95%CI of the highest quartile of UA for triglyceridemia was 2.71(95%CI:0.77-9.58);which in girls,the adjusted odds ratio and 95%CI of the highest quartile of UA for hyperglycemia,hypertension were 8.45(95%CI:1.76-40.52)and 3.93(95%CI:0.66-23.33),respectively,with significant differences.In boys,the area under the ROC curve of UA level,age,waist circumference and BMI which predict the MS were 0.652 0.626,0.621,0.62,respectively,and the differences were significant(all P<0.05).Conclusions The UA level is significantly correlated with the composition of MS,UA detection combining with reference to the age,waist circumference,and BMI is helpful for the identification of high risk groups of metabolic syndrome.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of Yiqi Yangyin decoction combined with metformin and irbesartan in treating type 2 diabetes complicated by hypertension with qi and yin deficiency syndrome. Methods:A case-control study was performed to retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 92 patients with type 2 diabetes complicated by hypertension with qi and yin deficiency syndrome. These patients received treatment at the First People's Hospital of Huzhou from February 2021 to April 2023. They were divided into two groups, with 46 patients in each group, based on different treatment methods. The control group received metformin and irbesartan, while the observation group was treated with Yiqi Yangyin decoction in addition to the treatment provided to the control group. Both groups underwent treatment for 1 month. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated, and the changes in traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores, blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and the occurrence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results:The total response rate of the observation group was 93.48% (43/46), which was significantly higher than that of the control group [82.61% (38/46), χ2 = 5.63, P < 0.05). After treatment, the traditional Chinese medicine symptom score for the observation group was (9.43 ± 2.11) points, which was significantly lower than that of the control group [(12.11 ± 2.32) points, t = 11.34, P < 0.001]. The fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in the observation group were (7.51 ± 1.34) mmol/L, (9.06 ± 2.11) mmol/L, and (6.23 ± 0.76)%, respectively, all of which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(8.75 ± 2.12) mmol/L, (11.15 ± 2.43) mmol/L, (7.11 ± 1.02)%, t = 4.13, 6.14, 4.01, all P < 0.05]. The systolic blood pressure in the observation group was (125.48 ± 8.14) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), which was significantly lower than that in the control group [(131.32 ± 9.22) mmHg, t = 6.76, P < 0.001]. The difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Yiqi Yangyin decoction combined with metformin and irbesartan is highly effective in treating type 2 diabetes complicated by hypertension with qi and yin deficiency syndrome. This combined therapy can effectively lower the traditional Chinese medicine symptom score, improve patients' blood glucose and blood pressure levels, and has a low incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective To explore the risk,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of newborns suffering from congenital latent tuberculosis infection (CLTBI) by vertical transfer of mycobacterium tuberculosis(VTRTB) from mothers with active tuberculosis (TB) mothers during pregnancy.Methods The clinical data of 7 children with CLTBI follow-up of 1-6 years in Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and 2 cases from literatures were reviewed,and they were divided into simple CLTBI group (n =5) and active TB group (n =4).Combined with the maternal history,the epidemiology,clinical features,treatment,prognosis and relative factors of the children were analyzed.Results Eight mothers had active TB during pregnancy,and premature delivery rate and low birth weight rate were 55.56% (5/9 cases) respectively.The positive conversion rates of purified protein derivative tests (PPD),acid-fast bacilli (AFB) and TB culture were 6/9 cases,0/9 cases and 1/9 cases,respectively.Positive results of T cell enzyme-linked immunospot tuberculous test (T-SPOT.TB) and TB-DNA by fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-TB-DNA) were detected in 4 cases respectively,1 of 3 patients with T-SPOT.TB and 1 of 3 patients with FQ-TB-DNA were positive.There were 5 cases with chemoprophylaxis of anti-TB drugs for 1-6 years with isonicid or rifampicin;3 cases with pulmonary hilar or mediastinal lymph nodes enlargement,and 3 cases with pulmonary diffuse punctate,nodular or patchy high density shadow in 3 cases;the rate of VTRTB in 9 cases was 8/9 (88.89%) based on laboratory examination of etiology and immunology,and the risk of active TB in infants and early childhood was close to 50% in neonates with CLTBI;the incidence of active TB was reduced from 100% (4/4 cases) of non-intervention down to 0 (0/5 case) of intervention.Conclusions Etiology,immunology,imaging examination of TB and clinical efficacy,can prompt active TB and retrospective diagnosis of CLTBI,and application of T-SPOT.TB and FQ-TB-DNA for early diagnosis of CLTBI has a higher applied value;prophylactic and treatment of anti-tuberculosis drugs can reduce the progression of CLTBI to active TB and improve outcomes.
