1.China's social non-profit medical institutions:Motivations, challenges and countermeasures
Chinese Journal of Health Policy 2016;9(9):1-6
Social forces participating in non-profit medical institutions will help to insist on the commonweal of public medical and health care and realize the goal of access to basic medical and health services for everyone .At present , social forces participating in non-profit medical institutions have made some prominent improvements under a series of policy support .However , due to the absolute dominance of public hospitals , social forces participating in non-profit medical institutions are still potting a lot of restrictions on access threshold of basic medical services , devel-opment space and policy implementation .In order to promote the healthy development of social forces participating in non-profit medical institutions , we should first recognize its significance and guarantee its development potential , tal-ents construction and development space through implementing preferential policies , improving supervision mecha-nisms, exploring multi-sited license, optimizing allocation of resources and so on .

OBJECTIVE To discuss the surgical methods and their long term efficacy of management of the parotid tumor.METHODS The clinical data of 86 cases with parotid tumor underwent operation between 1997 and 2004 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.There were 53 male and 33 female with their age from 23 to 84 years(mean 57 years old). All the patients underwent superficial parotidectomy or extensive superficial parotidectomyenl or total parotidectomy.Selective or functional neck dissection was carried out in some cases.The function of facial nerve was evaluated after operation in all patients. Postoperative radiotherapy was performed in all malignant cases with a dose of 50 to 70 Gy.The patients were followed-up for 36 to 120 months.RESULTS There were 73 benign cases and 13 malignant cases. Five of 8 malignant tumors were found in deep lobe gland.Only one benign tumor locally recurred.The local- regional control rate of the benign tumor was 98.3%. The 3-year survival rate and local-regional control rate in malignant neoplasm were 69.2 % and 84.6 % respectively.The cervical lymph nodes metastasis rate was 23.1% in postoperative pathologic study.The facial nerve preservation rates were 97.3 % and 69.2 % in benign and malignant cases respectively.CONCLUSION The superficial parotidectomy is the basic surgical method.Extensive superficial parotidectomy or total parotidectomy can be used if necessary.The facial nerve and its branches should be preserved during operation. The malignant tumor is more frequently found in deep lobe of the parotid gland.

To determine the incidence, clinical characteristics and coronary angiographic findings of postinfarction angina, clinical course and coronary angiogram were studied in 45 patients with acute myocardial infarction. During a mean follow-up period of 12 weeks, 17 patients(37.8%) developed angina. Of 5 patients with postinfarction angina within 1 week of infarction, 2 patients died during hospitalization, whereas all 12 patients with postinfarction angina which occured more than 1 week after acute myocardial infarction were discharge alive. The frequency of stenosis over 90% and multivessel disease by coronary angiography were 51.7% and 64.7% respectively in patients with postinfarction angina, and 25%, 28.5% respectively in patients without postinfarction angina.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the surgical management for the severe stenosis of peripheral esophageal access.
METHOD:
Twenty-three patients who underwent severe stenosis of peripheral esophageal access from 2000 to 2009, were retrospectively reviewed. The surgical plan was selected by considering the stage of stenosis, dilatation, reconstruction of hypopharynx, oesophagus or larynx.
RESULT:
Twenty-two patients resumed a normal oral diet and 21 cases succeeded in decannulation, no stenosis recurred after a 1-9 years follow-up.
CONCLUSION
The severe stenosis of peripheral esophageal access can get good results when the appropriate surgical plan were choice.

Cervical spinal cord injury results in significant dysfunction of the sympathetic nervous system. Reduced sympathetic activity below the level of spinal cord injury is associated with low resting blood pressure,orthostatic hypotension,and reflex bradycardia.Hypotension can be treated with vasoactive agents,such as dopamine,epinephrine,norepinephrine, and phenylephine .Orally administered midodrine is an alpha adrenergic receptor agonist that increases blood pressure with vasoconstriction.Its action is fast and effective in treating hypotension in patients with spinal cord injury,and it has less severe side effects.A 70-year-old tetraplegic patient with fracture and dislocation of C6-7 after a motor vehicle accident was admitted to ICU and underwent anterior cervical intervertebral body fusion.Symptomatic hypotension following postural changes was treated with intravenous infusion of dopamine,but it was difficult to reduce the dose of dopamine without causing severe hypotension.Midodrine was prescribed and the patient was well tolerated without any adverse effect.With adequately maintained blood pressure,intravenous infusion of dopamine was successfully switched to the oral midodrine.This case suggests that the midodrine is effective for the treatment of hypotension in tetraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and enables patients to participate in early rehabilitation therapies.
