1.The operation and implictaion of universal health insurance in the U nited Kingdom, Singapore and Hong Kong
Chinese Journal of Health Policy 2014;(5):49-55
As the excellent country or region refers to medical insurance system , the United Kingdom , Singa-pore and Hong Kong are often the focus of international academic circles .However , the difference is that the United Kingdom is a model of free universal medical care , Singapore is a government-led mixed medical protection mode , and Hong Kong earns a worldwide reputation on health care by virtue of the high quality , low price public hospital services .This article assesses the advantages and limitations of the three medical insurance systems in terms of equity in financing , individual affordability, insurance coverage , sustainability in financing and individual responsibility , and provides a reference for health care reform in China .

Objective:To explore the clinical feasibility of extra-peritoneal laparoscopic radical cystectomy based on the concept of 3D membrane anatomy.Methods:The clinical data of 10 male patients with bladder cancer who underwent 3D extra-peritoneal laparoscopic radical cystectomy + ileal-orthotopic-neobladder surgery from October 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The median age was 67 years. The ASA score was 1-2 in 8 cases and 3 in 2 cases. There were 4 cases of hypertension, 2 cases of diabetes, 1 case of heart disease, no case of abdominal surgery history. During the operation, the concept of 3D membrane anatomy was used to identify the important fascia in the pelvic cavity and to find the key layers and structures in the pelvic cavity.It was separated from the prevesical fascia to the laterovesical space, and confluenced with Retzius space and Bogros space. It was dissected in the layer surrounded by the prevesical fascia, the vesicohypogastric fascia, and the urogenital fascia to complete the process of cystectomy.Results:The operations of 10 patients were completed successfully and there was no conversion to open operation. The median operation time was 276(237-325) minutes, and the median blood loss was 160(50-280)ml. The postoperative bowel recovery median time was 1.8(1-3)days, and the patients were out of bed about 1.3(1-2) days. The median postoperative hospital stay was 9(5-12) days. The number of median lymph node dissection in all patients was 10(6-20). Positive lymph nodes was found in 3 cases. Positive margin was found in no case. Postoperative tumor pathological stages were T 2 stage in 7 cases, T 3 stage in 3 cases. During the follow-up, all patients had no obvious complications. Conclusions:It is feasible to apply the concept of 3D membrane anatomy to identify and locate the key fascia structures and levels in extra-peritoneal laparoscopic radical cystectomy. The operative complications were less and the postoperative recovery was faster. The anatomy is clear during the operation, which has good safety and reduces the difficulty of the operation.

Objective:To explore the short-term and long-term prognostic outcomes of anatomical liver resection(AR)for patients with perihilar cholangio-carcinoma. Methods:This is a retrospective study.All data were obtained from 4 centers,including The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University,Eastern Hepatobiliary Hospital of Naval Medical University,Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital and Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University,of a multi-center database.A total of 305 consecutive perihilar cholangiocarcinoma patients receiving radical resection between January 2013 and June 2021 were included in this study.According to the method of liver resection,all patients were divided into the AR group(n=205)and the non-anatomical liver resection(NAR)group(n=100).The baseline characteristics,short-term prognosis and long-term prognosis of the 2 groups were compared. Results:The perioperative transfusion rate and the 30-day complication rate were significantly lower in the AR group than those in the NAR group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the survival rates between the AR and the NAR groups(P>0.05). Conclusion:The 2 hepatic resection modalities had no obvious effect on the long-term prognosis of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma patients after radical resection,but choosing AR tends to achieve a better short-term prognosis and is worth promoting in clinical practice.
