Objective:To explore the effect of multi-channel health education model by professional team on drug compliance, disease knowledge and recurrence in rate of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, so as to provide basis for formulating scientific health education measures.Methods:From February 2016 to February 2019, IBD patients visited First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were selected. According to whether they received health education, the patients were divided into intervention group (100 cases) and control group (138 cases). Morisky medication adherence scale-8 (MMAS-8) and Chinese version of Crohn′s and colitis knowledge score (CCKNOW) were used to evaluate treatment compliance and disease knowledge. The score of MMAS-8, the proportion of poor drug compliance, CCKNOW score and recurrence rate at 48 weeks of follow-up were compared between the intervention group and control group. Two sample t test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The total scores of MMAS-8 and CCKNOW of the intervention group were both higher than those of the control group (5.58±1.96 vs. 4.47±1.44, 10.87±4.21 vs. 9.23±4.65), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-5.06 and -2.79, both P<0.05). The proportion of patients with poor drug compliance and recurrence rate at 48 weeks of follow up of the intervention group were both lower than those of the control group (56.0%, 56/100 vs. 86.2%, 119/138; 20.0%, 20/100 vs. 31.9%, 44/138), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=38.18 and 4.17, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Multi-channel health education by professional team can effectively improve the drug compliance and disease knowledge in IBD patients, improve patient self-management ability, and reduce the recurrence rate.

Modern medical quality management is characterized by professionalism, continuity and comprehensiveness. It is necessary to strengthen the communication and cooperation among health administrative authorities, medical institutions and professionals. Since 2011, based on the guidance of the interactive governance theory and the governance interface as a platform, Zhejiang Province had explored and established a relatively independent third-party quality evaluation service organization, which aimed to correct such setbacks as the imbalance and inadequacy of medical quality management. Through the interaction of organization interface, management interface, service interface, information interface and method interface, the province had initially achieved the multi-level diagonal governance in medical quality management, and transformed the traditional management relationship into an interactive relationship. This practice had achieved desirable results in improving the quality control work network, updating management methods, and improving medical quality and safety, serving as reference in upgrading the medical quality and safety management of medical institutions in China.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship of continuous positive airway pressure and pulmonary function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), and formulate the prediction equation for the effective therapeutic pressure.
METHODSIn a retrospective cross-sectional study of 48 patients with established OSAHS, all the patients were carefully examined for their medical history, and overnight sleep monitoring was carried out to measure the sleep apnea-hypopnea index, mean oxygen saturation, minimum oxygen saturation, and oxygen drop index. The data of manual pressure titration (effective pressure) and pulmonary function tests (tidal volume, one second forced expiratory volume, central airway resistance, and peripheral airway resistance were collected for multiple linear regression analysis.
RESULTSThe effective therapeutic pressure was not correlated with the indices of the pulmonary functions in the patients, but showed correlations with the neck circumference, abdominal circumference, apnea-hypopnea index, mean oxygen saturation, least oxygen saturation, and oxygen desaturation index. Multiple linear regression (α=0.05 test level) identified only oxygen desaturation index (P=0.012) and mean oxygen saturation (P=0.036) as the dependent variables of the effective therapeutic pressure. Linear regression analysis showed that the effective therapeutic pressure had a linear relationship with the oxygen drop index and mean oxygen saturation, and was inversely correlated with the mean oxygen saturation.
CONCLUSIONSIn patients with OSAHS, the pulmonary function indices are not correlated with the effective therapeutic pressure. In the absence of manual pressure titration, the effective therapeutic pressure can be predicted using the prediction equation: effective therapy pressure = 24.262+0.044×oxygen desaturation index -0.19×average oxygen saturation.

Temperature is an important environmental factor that can greatly influence the cultivation of Auricularia cornea. In this study, lignin peroxidase, laccase, manganese peroxidase, and cellulose in A. cornea fruiting bodies were tested under five different temperatures (20 °C, 25 °C, 30 °C, 35 °C, and 40 °C) in three different culture periods (10 days, 20 days and 30 days). In addition, the V4 region of bacterial 16S rRNA genes in the substrate of A. cornea cultivated for 30 days at different temperatures were sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology to explore the structure and diversity of bacterial communities in the substrate. Temperature and culture days had a significant effect on the activities of the four enzymes, and changes in activity were not synchronized with changes in temperature and culture days. Overall, we obtained 487,694 sequences from 15 samples and assigned them to 16 bacterial phyla. Bacterial community composition and structure in the substrate changed when the temperature was above 35 °C. The relative abundances of some bacteria were significantly affected by temperature. A total of 35 genera at five temperatures in the substrate were correlated, and 41 functional pathways were predicted in the study. Bacterial genes associated with the membrane transport pathway had the highest average abundance (16.16%), and this increased at 35 °C and 40 °C. Generally, different temperatures had impacts on the physiological activity of A. cornea and the bacterial community in the substrate; therefore, the data presented herein should facilitate cultivation of A. cornea.

It is the current confusion encountered by integrated Chinese and Western medicine that how to find the breakthrough direction of integrating Chinese and Western medicine, from crossover to integration to innovation, and open up a new horizon of integrated Chinese and Western medicine. The progress of Chinese medicine lay in expanding the scope of diagnosis and treatment with the help of modern diagnostic and therapeutic equipments and developing “micro” identification, while the progress of Western medicine lay in looking at “macro” and developing systemic medicine and integrated medicine, both of which are in the direction of each other. The “state-target identification and treatment” may become an important way to build a modern diagnosis and treatment system of integrated Chinese and Western medicine, and the thinking mode of “from target to state” is a further refinement and development on the basis of the theoretical system of “state-target identification and treatment”, which provided a clearer solution for the current stage of the integrated Chinese and Western medicine model, and pointed out the important development direction for the future integrated Chinese and Western medicine. From the perspective of strategic level and diagnosis and treatment practice, it integrated the “target-state” thinking mode into the modern diagnosis and treatment model of the integrated Chinese and Western medicine, i.e., “Western medicine as the basis and treating with Chinese medicine; Chinese medicine as the basis and treating with Western medicine”. On the one hand, Western medicine should strengthen the reference to the traditional theories and holism of Chinese medicine, and advocate a higher level of education on the integrated Chinese and Western medicine under the guidance of the traditional theories of Chinese medicine. On the other hand, the “from target to state” mode of thinking should be applied to guide the establishment of diagnostic and treatment strategies and clinical selection of medicines in clinical practice, so as to locate the target and adjust the body state in a gradual and orderly manner, and to provide practical methods for the modern clinical work of the integrated Chinese and Western medicines. Chinese and Western medicine systems can learn from each other, combine organically, give full play to their respective strengths, and form an internal law, so as to make breakthroughs and innovations in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine model.
