Under the socialist market-oriented economic system, state-owned hospitals need to overcome many problems in their traditional management system. The authors discuss a series of issues, including the property right involved in the reform of the management system of state-owned hospitals; the relationships between nonprofit hospitals run by the government and ways of handling them; the conditions of using the corporation management structure in hospitals; the responsibilities of the government in the framework of medical services and the form in which the government supervises state-owned hospitals. Lastly, the authors put forward suggestions from the perspective of policy-making on the reform of the management system of state-owned hospitals.

BACKGROUND: Prospective studies concerning bone metabolism and bone mineral density variation after fractures have been reported from the 1960s, but these studies are mainly focused on tibia and fibula and ankle fractures in patients with low sample size.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the changes in bone mineral density and bone metabolism indexes in elderly women within 6 to 12 months after hip fractures, and to analyze the correlation.
METHODS:We selected 48 elderly women with hip fractures admitted in the Department of Orthopedics, Beijing Aerospace General Hospital in China from May 2011 to July 2013. Standards for fol ow-up were developed to measure the bone mineral density and bone metabolism indexes in the L 1-4 spinal segments and both sides of the hip. The bone metabolism indexes included bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, cross-linked C-terminal peptide of col agen I, and serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b levels. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed based on measurements of bone mineral density and bone metabolism indexes after fracture healing.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After fracture healing, bone mineral density of the fractured hip and lumbar vertebra was significantly lower than the baseline value. There was no statistical difference in bone mineral density between the healthy hip and the baseline value. At 6 months after fractures, bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, cross-linked C-terminal peptide of col agen I, and serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b levels were significantly higher than the baseline values. At 12 months after fractures, osteocalcin level was significantly higher than the baseline value, while other indexes of bone metabolism measurements showed no statistical difference from the baseline values. When healing of hip fractures met the clinical and radiographic standards, the partial regression coefficient of delta-Z score reached peak in the changes of serum osteocalcin and bone mineral density of the fractured hip. Under clinical healing of fractures, serum osteocalcin level exhibits a higher value for the assessment of recovery speed of bone mineral density. Monitoring corresponding bone metabolism indexes after fracture healing can improve the accuracy of judging bone mineral density changes to reduce the risk of secondary fractures.

BACKGROUND:Skin and soft tissue defects of hands are easy to appear due to different factors, such as trauma. Flap transplantation is a clinical treatment for soft tissue defects of hands. Dorsal foot flap, which is thicker with constant vessel traveling, is very suitable for repair of hand soft tissue defects. OBJECTIVE: To explore the success rate and survival rate of dorsal foot flap transplantation in the repair of hand skin and soft tissue defects. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 86 patients with skin and soft tissue defect of hands. These patients were respectively given conventional skin wound skin grafting (control group) and dorsal foot flap transplantation (observational group). Hand appearance, infection rate, perception recovery and complications were observed during the postoperative folow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Skin flaps al survived after grafting, and the texture of flaps was good. Patients were satisfied with hand shape and the recovery of hand function. After flap transplantation, one patient had local skin necrosis at the donor region, and the scar healed after dressing; another patient had venous crisis, and was given vascular re-anastomosis. In the observation group, the postoperative appearance was better than that of the control group, the infection rate was lower than that of the control group, the perception recovery was better, and there were fewer complications (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that the dorsal foot flap transplantation is better to repair skin and soft tissue defects in the hand.

BACKGROUND:Metabolic syndrome greatly harms the human body, and is affected by many factors. Through constructing diet-induced animal models, we can better analyze the relationship between nutritional factor and metabolic syndrome, and provide reliable references for the clinical treatment of this disorder. OBJECTIVE:To construct obese mouse models with high-fat diet feeding and discuss the relationship between nutritional factor and metabolic syndrome. METHODS:Thirty mice were selected and randomly divided into model group (n=20) and control group (n=10), and were fed with high-fat and normal animal feeds for 10 consecutive weeks. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, after 1 week of feeding with high-fat animal feeds, body weight of mice in the model group raised, and differences gradualy increased with the feeding time increased. After 8 weeks of feeding, body mass index of mice in the model group significantly raised (P < 0.05). After 4 weeks of feeding, fasting venous blood glucose level of mice in the model group significantly raised, and showed a gradual rise trend with feeding time. After 5 weeks of feeding, fasting insulin level of mice in the model group also began to rise. The oral glucose tolerance test showed that mice in the model group showed a gradual downward trend of glucose tolerance with feeding time. After 8 weeks of feeding, serum levels of total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol in the model group significantly raised (P < 0.05). After 10 weeks of feeding, serum levels of triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol in the model group raised (P< 0.05). The results demonstrate that obese mouse models were successfuly constructed with high-fat diet feeding, which can simulate the natural progression of metabolic syndrome in human, moreover, the nutritional factor is closely related to metabolic syndrome.

Purpose:
The risk stratification of pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has not been standardized. In this study, new risk factors were included to establish a new risk stratification system for ALCL, and its feasibility in clinical practice was explored.
Materials and Methods:
On the basis of the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma Berlin–Frankfurt–Munster 95 (NHL-BFM-95) protocol, patients with minimal disseminated disease (MDD), high-risk tumor site (multiple bone, skin, liver, and lung involvement), and small cell/lymphohistiocytic (SC/LH) pathological subtype were enrolled in risk stratification. Patients were treated with a modified NHL-BFM-95 protocol combined with an anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor or vinblastine (VBL).
Results:
A total of 136 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 8.8 years. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival of the entire cohort were 77.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 69.0% to 83.9%) and 92.3% (95% CI, 86.1% to 95.8%), respectively. The 3-year EFS rates of low-risk group (R1), intermediate-risk group (R2), and high-risk group (R3) patients were 100%, 89.5% (95% CI, 76.5% to 95.5%), and 67.9% (95% CI, 55.4% to 77.6%), respectively. The prognosis of patients with MDD (+), stage IV cancer, SC/LH lymphoma, and high-risk sites was poor, and the 3-year EFS rates were 45.3% (95% CI, 68.6% to 19.0%), 65.7% (95% CI, 47.6% to 78.9%), 55.7% (95% CI, 26.2% to 77.5%), and 70.7% (95% CI, 48.6% to 84.6%), respectively. At the end of follow-up, one of the five patients who received maintenance therapy with VBL relapsed, and seven patients receiving anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor maintenance therapy did not experience relapse.
Conclusion
This study has confirmed the poor prognostic of MDD (+), high-risk site and SC/LH, but patients with SC/LH lymphoma and MDD (+) at diagnosis still need to receive better treatment (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03971305).
