Objective:To understand the patients'satisfaction on catastrophic medical insurance of New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme ( NRCMS ) , and provide references for effective management and policy improvement. Methods:According to the principles of representative sampling, a questionnaire survey conducted. 484 patients got compensation for catastrophic insurance in 2013 were surveyed, and information of medical costs was analyzed. Re-sults:The average medical cost accounts for 84. 57% of total household expenditure. Mandatory medical expenditure is still high and economic burden of diseases is heavy. This policy has increased the compensation rate, and the actu-al compensation rate increases 4. 79% in three districts. The average score of patients' attitude toward catastrophic medical insurance is (3.95±1.05) points, 88. 43% of patients continue to participate in medical insurance. Con-clusions and suggestions:Patients' satisfaction on catastrophic medical insurance of NRCMS is high. It is suggested that the existing financing modes should maintain stability in the short term, and the compensatory rate should be im-proved reasonably.

Objective: To analyze the effects of the catastrophic disease insurance of New Rural Cooperative Med-ical Scheme ( NRCMS) on alleviating the economic burden of patients in Beijing, and evaluate the effect of the policy implementation. Methods: Based on high, middle and low economic development levels and the implementation pro-ceedings of catastrophic disease insurance of NRCMS, this paper selects 3 districts of Beijing, from which it chooses two or three villages and towns with the highest numbers of catastrophic disease patients, in order to understand the opera-tional status quo of the catastrophic disease insurance through in-depth interviews with managers. This paper conducts questionnaire survey among all catastrophic disease patients from the sampled villages and towns, and uses 497 valid questionnaires received to understand patients' subjective feelings and collect relevant data of family income and medical expenditure of catastrophic disease patients in 2013. Then it carries out data docking with the platform of NRCMS man-agement centers and measure the economic burden of catastrophic disease patients. In this paper, quantitative and qualitative data are analyzed using statistical and thematic analyses, respectively. Results: The catastrophic disease in-surance of NRCMS has significantly played an important role in reducing the average medical expenditure of catastroph-ic disease patients and improving the actual compensation ratio in varying degrees. However, the incidence of cata-strophic health expenditures has not significantly improved. Conclusion: This paper suggests to increase deductibles and reimbursement ratios of catastrophic disease insurance in order to broaden reimbursement directory and other initiatives to improve the compensation level and focus on alleviating the economic burden of catastrophic disease patients.

Objective To explore the effect of clinical and pathological features on the incidence of Hyperuricemia (HUA) in renal glomerular disease.Methods A retrospective analysis was applied to review the clinical and pathological date collected from 3547 patients with renal glomerular disease.These patients were diagnosed as renal glomerular disease by renal biopsy from January 2007 to December 2011.Results (1) HUA incidence was 21.8％ (773/3547) in all of the patients,in which the incidence in secondary glomerular disease 27.2％ (240/882) was much higher than that in primary glomerular disease 20.7％ (552/2665),and the difference was significant (x2 =153.642,P ＜ 0.05).In primary glomerular disease,HUA incidence was the lowest in membranous nephropathy 14.4％ (96/665),while HUA incidence in lupus nephritis (LN) 45.3％(110/243) was the highest and small blood vessel infammation kidney damage 34.7％ (17/49) was the second in secondary glomerular disease.(2) With the increasing of glomerulosclerosis index,tubulointerstitial score,renal vascular lesions score and the stage of chronic kidney disease,HUA incidence increased (x2 =17.798-298.216,P =0.000).(3)Logistic regression analysis showed that high tubulointerstitial score,glomerulosclerosis index and renal dysfunction,male,overweight or obese,hypertension and hypertriglyceridemia were risk factors for hyperuricemia (OR:1.011-7.513,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The uric acid level is increased in nearly a quarter of patients with renal glomerular disease.Severe tubulointerstitial lesion,high glomerulosclerosis index,low glomerular filtration rate,male,overweight or obese,hypertension and hypertiglyceridemia were independent risk factors for HUA.

Objective To investigate the significance of neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in the patients of primary nephmpathy syndrome (PNS) complicated with acute kidney injury (AKI) by detecting urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1.Methods Senventy-two patients of PNS were selected as our subjects including 34 case with minimal change disease (MCD),23 cases with membranous nephropathy(MN),15 cases with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN).Fifteen cases of healthy physical examination were selected as control group.Meanwhile subjects were also divided into PNS with ATN group (15 cases) and PNS without ATN group (57 cases) according to their pathology check.ELISA was applied to detect the urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1,whose correlation with pathological type and clinical index were analyzed.Results The urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1 in patients with PNS were (42.37 ± 28.24) μg/L,(2.76 ± 1.11) μg/L respectively,higher than that of control group (P ＜0.01).The urinary level of NGAL in the MCD group,MN group,MsPGN group were higher than that of control group (46.81 ± 15.75) μg/L,(22.09 ± 7.69) μg/L,(15.31 ± 3.74) μg/L,(8.03 ± 0.35) μg/L respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The urinary level of NGAL in MCD group was significantly highest than that in the other groups (P ＜ 0.05).The urinary level of KIM-1 in the MCD group,MN group,MsPGN group were higher than that of control group(2.41 ±0.58) μg/L,(2.54 ±0.67) μg/L,(2.87 ±0.50) μg/L,(0.73 ±0.35) μg/L respectively,P ＜0.05).But there was no significant difference among MCD,MN,MsPGN groups(P ＞ 0.05).The urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1 in patients PNS were (42.37 ± 28.34) μg/L and (2.76 ± 1.11) μg/L,significantly higher than that of control group (t =4.668,12.665,P ＜ 0.05).The urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1 in patients PNS with ATN were significantly higher than patient without ATN (NGAL:(74.98 ±9.52) μg/L vs.(31.31 ±2.34) μg/L;KIM-1:(3.60 ±0.92) μg/L vs.(2.54 ±0.81) μg/L,P ＜0.05).The correlation analysis showed that the urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1 was positively correlated with serum β2-MG,serum creatinine,serum blood urea nitrogen and 24-hour urine protein.(r =0.432,0.299,0.234,0.254,0.434,0.650,0.276,0.301 respectively,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The urinary level of NGAL and KIM-1 could be considered as the early,non-invasive biologic factors to reflect in patients of PNS with ATN.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen on hemorrhage transformation and its possible mechanism in rats after cerebral infarction.Methods Seventy-two SD male rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group,model group,and hyperbaric oxygen group (n=24).Focal cerebral ischemia rat models were established by occluding the middle cerebral artery in model group and hyperbaric oxygen group,and the hemorrhage transformation models after cerebral infarction were prepared by intraperitoneal injection of hyperglycemia before ischemia reperfusion.Rats in the hyperbaric oxygen group were treated with hyperbaric oxygen 3 h after operation.Twenty-four h after operation,Neurological Function Scale was performed;infarct sizes were measured by TTC staining;amount of hemoglobin detected by spectrophotometric assay was used to evaluate the amount of blood loss in the brain tissues;nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) protein expression was detected by Western blotting;and the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the penumbra of cerebral infarction were determined by ELISA.Results As compared with those in the model group,the Neurological Function Scale scores of hyperbaric oxygen group were significantly higher (11.50± 1.64 vs.16.04±2.09,P＜0.05).The brain infarct sizes,hemorrhagic volumes,NF-κB protein expression,and IL-1β and TNF-α concentrations in the hyperbaric oxygen group were significantly decreased as compared with those in the model group (33.7％±3.8％ vs.21.6％±4.1％,[11.94±2.26] μL vs.[8.21±1.96] μL,3.05±0.19 vs.2.26±0.25,[49.78±5.65] pg/mL vs.[31.88±2.96] pg/mL,and [31.11± 4.55] pg/mL vs.[19.39±3.19] pg/mL,P＜0.05).Conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen has therapeutic effect on hemorrhage transformation after cerebral infarction by reducing brain infarct sizes and hemorrhagic volumes,whose mechanism might be related to inhibition of NF-κB,IL-1β,and TNF-α expressions and reduce of inflammatory response.

Objective: To analyze the efficacy of HLA-haploidentical peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT) following reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen to treat the patients with hematological malignancies who were older than 50 years old. Methods: Eighteen patients with hematological malignancies over 50 years were enrolled, including 8 male and 10 female patients. The median age of all patients was 52 (range: 50–66) years. Of them, 8 patients had acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , 2 chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) , 5 myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) , 2 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) , and 1 aggressive natural killer cell leukemia (ANKL) . All patients received fludarabine, cytarabine and melphalan with rabbit anti-human thymocyte globulin (FAB+rATG regimen) and transplanted with high dose non-T cell-depleted peripheral hematopoietic stem cells from donors. Enhanced graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and infection prevention were administered. Results: Fifteen days after transplantation, 16 patients achieved complete donor chimerism. One of them rejected the donor graft completely at thirty days after transplantation, and the other 2 patients had mixed chimerism 15 days after transplantation and converted to complete recipient chimerism at 30 days after transplantation. The cumulative incidence of acute GVHD (aGVHD) was 61.1% (95%CI49.6%-72.6%) . The incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD was 35.4% (95%CI 21.1%-49.7%) , whereas grade III-IV was 13.8% (95%CI 4.7%-22.9%) . The 2-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) rate was estimated at 38.2% (95%CI 25.5%-50.9%) . Patients were followed-up for a median of 14.5 months (range, 3-44 months) . The Kaplan Meier estimates of 2-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) was 72.6% (95%CI 60.1%-85.1%) and 63.7% (95%CI 49.2%-78.2%) , respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse and non-relapse-mortality (NRM) was 31.2% (95%CI 16.5%-45.9%) and 12.5% (95%CI 4.2%-20.8%) , respectively. Conclusion RIC-haplo-PBSCT protocol can achieve better results in patients with hematologic malignancies over 50 years old.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides （LBP） in promoting the activation of RAW264.7 macrophages. MethodRAW264.7 macrophages were stimulated with LBP at different concentrations （50， 100， 200 mg·L^-1）， and those stimulated with lipopolysaccharide （LPS） at 100 μg·L^-1 and galactose （Gal） at 100 mg·L^-1 as positive controls. After 24 h of LBP stimulation， the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） was used to detect the survival rate of RAW264.7 macrophages treated with LBP （0， 50， 100， 200， 400， 800 mg·L^-1）. The levels of interleukin-6 （IL-6） and interleukin-12 （IL-12） in cell culture supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The protein and mRNA expression of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， extracellular signal-regulated kinase （ERK）， c-Jun N-terminal kinase （JNK）， and nuclear factor κB （NF-κB） in Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/Toll-like receptor 2 （TLR2）/macrophage galactose-type lectin （MGL） pathway of RAW264.7 macrophages was detected by Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot. ResultCCK-8 results showed that compared with the results in the blank group， the survival rate of RAW264.7 macrophages decreased in the 400， 800 mg·L^-1 LBP groups （P<0.05）. ELISA results showed that compared with the blank group， 50 mg·L^-1 LBP could promote the secretion of IL-12 in RAW264.7 macrophages （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， 100 mg·L^-1 LBP and 200 mg·L^-1 LBP could promote the secretion of IL-6 in RAW264.7 macrophages （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Western blot results showed that compared with the blank group， the LBP groups （50， 100， 200 mg·L^-1） enhanced protein expression levels of MAPK key molecules （p-p38 MAPK， p-ERK， p-NF-κB， and p-JNK） in TLR4， TLR2， and MGL pathways （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the 200 mg·L^-1 LBP group could promote the expression level of p-NF-κB protein in RAW264.7 macrophages （P<0.01）. Real-time PCR results showed that compared with the blank group， the LBP groups （50， 100， and 200 mg·L^-1） enhanced the mRNA expression levels of MAPK key molecules （p38 MAPK， ERK， NF-κB， and JNK） in TLR4 and TLR2 pathways （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the 50 and 200 mg·L^-1 LBP groups could promote the mRNA expression levels of JNK and ERK2 in RAW264.7 macrophages （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionLBP can regulate the activation of RAW264.7 macrophages and participate in the immune response through the TLR2/TLR4/MGL pathway.

Objective:To observe the multimodal imaging features and explore the treatment of parafoveal exudative vascular anomaly complex (PEVAC).Methods:A retrospective study. Six patients (6 eyes) with PEVAC diagnosed in Tianjin Eye Hospital were included in this study from July 2018 to December 2021. All patients were female with monocular disease. The age was (61.1±9.3) years. All patients showed a sudden painless decline in monocular vision with metamorphopsia. All patients underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), color fundus photography, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) was performed in 4 eyes. In 6 eyes, 3 eyes were treated with intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drug; 5 eyes were treated with micropulse laser photocoagulation and/or local thermal laser photocoagulation; 1 eye was treated with photodynamic therapy. Five patients were followed up for (9.2±7.4) months, and 1 patient was lost. At follow-up, the same equipment and methods were used as at the initial diagnosis. The clinical manifestations, multimodal image features and treatment response were observed.Results:Baseline BCVA of affected eyes were ranged from 0.1 to 0.5. PEVAC was isolated in 6 eyes, and the fundus showed isolated hemangioma-like leision, accompanied by small bleeding and hard exudation. There were 2 isolated hemangiomatous lesions adjacent to each other in 2 eyes. In the early stage of FFA, punctate high fluorescence lesions near the macular fovea were seen, and the leakage was enhanced in the late stage. There was no leakage in the early stage of ICGA, or slight leakage with late scouring. OCT showed an oval lesion with high reflection wall and uneven low reflection. The central macular thickness (CMT) was (431±76) μm. OCTA showed blood flow signals in PEVAC, 2 eyes in the superficial capillary plexus (SCP), and it was also observed in the deep capillary plexus (DCP), but the intensity of blood flow signal was slightly weaker than that in the SCP. The blood flow signal was visible only in DCP in 2 eyes. SCP and DCP showed similar intensity of blood flow signals in 2 eyes. After treatment, the bleeding was absorbed basically in 4 eyes, the hard exudation partially subsided, the CMT decreased, the intercortical cystic cavity of the fovea nerve decreased, the hemangiomatous lesions narrowed, and BCVA increased. In 1 eye, the macular sac was reduced and partially absorbed by hard exudation, which was later relapsed due to blood pressure fluctuation.Conclusions:The majority of PEVAC patients had monocular onset. The fundus is characterized by solitary or structure with strong reflex walls, with or without retinal cysts, hard exudates, and subretinal fluid, and visible blood flow signals inside.

Objective: To understand the injuries among 16 459 left-behind children from 27 poor rural areas in 12 provinces of China, 2016. Methods: Data were collected from the survey of 'Health Service Needs Assessment’ (HSNA) program on left-behind children, from poor rural areas in the middle and western parts of China. Factors including causes, types, locations, related activities, ways of treatment and outcomes among left-behind children with injuries in 2016, were described and analyzed by gender and age groups. Results: In 2016, per-person and person-time incidence rates of injuries were 8.88% and 11.21%, among the 16 459 left-behind children from 27 poor rural areas in 12 provinces of China, both higher in boys, than in girls. Most injuries were unintentional with its proportion higher in older children. The main types of injuries were seen as falls, blunt and sharp injuries, with burns and animal injuries more common in younger children. Injuries among left-behind children mainly took place at home, kindergarten/school, and on the highways/streets/roads, during playing. Most common ways of treatment would include at the emergency settings, self-treated, with older children more likely to treat by themselves. Most injuries were cured. Conclusions In programs on prevention and control of injuries targeting the left-behind children in poor rural areas, special attention should be given to older boys, on falls and blunt/sharp injuries, at home or kindergarten/school. Education programs should pinpoint on self-rescue skills and guidance on kids by the parents, with behavioral norms and social support included. Related comprehensive prevention and control mechanism should be developed in families, schools and communities, with medical resources and insurance mechanism explored to serve these population and districts, including those left-behind children.
