To evaluate the value of Doppler tissue imaging(DTI) to assess left ventricular systolic and diastolic function by determining motion frequency of the mitral annulus in acute myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction. The left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD) was ligated in 10 pigs and systolic motion velocity(Sa), early diastolic velocity(Ea), late diastolic velocity(Aa) and Ea/Aa of lateral mitral annulus in apical 4 chamber view using DTI velocity model before and after ligation of LAD were determined.The results were compared with routine Doppler. In basal state, Ea/Aa was positively correlated with VE/VA (the ratio of early and late diastolic velocity of mitral flow) with Doppler imaging (?=0.82). After the ligation of LAD, Sa, Ea and Ea/Aa significantly decreased, while there was no difference in Aa. DTI is simple and easy for determining mitral annulus motion. It is a new quantitative and non invasive method to evaluate left ventricular function. [HS(2*2/3]

Introduction to the theories on improving coordination level of the new rural cooperative medical system,including the risk theory,great number rule,fair theory,demand theory and supply theory which are cornerstones of enhancing the NRCMS improving the pooling level.The paper also probed into the practices of improving the pooling level of the NRCMS,including the models of high level,middle level and low level pooling.These theories and practices can help the localities better design and manage the pooling level of the NRCMS.

Objective To measure and comprehensively analyze the operation efficiency of coronary heart disease Center of National Regional Medical Center for Cardiovascular Disease from the dimensions of department service in-come,department service quality,department service efficiency and department service benefit,and put forward targeted operation management optimization strategies based on the analysis results.Methods The operation effective-ness evaluation index of CHD centers in sample hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was measured by the empirical re-search method from the overall level of the center and the level of clinical departments,and the scores were com-pared and analyzed.Results From 2020 to 2022,the operation effectiveness evaluation index of CHD centers in sam-ple hospitals showed a good trend,increasing from 80.57 points to 82.86 points.The 3-year average score was 81.74;Among them,the score rate of department service benefit dimension is higher,the average is 96.64％;The score rate of department service efficiency was lower,with an average of 68.53％.The departments with the lowest operational efficiency scores from 2020 to 2022 are all A2 departments,with 74.39,72.41 and 75.89 scores respec-tively,mainly due to the relatively low scores of A2 departments in the dimensions of department service revenue and department service efficiency.Conclusion The results of clinical department operation effectiveness evaluation can provide the evidence-based basis for hospital operation management,and hospitals can establish benchmarking management departments according to the evaluation results and take targeted measures to improve the comprehen-sive operation efficiency of departments.

OBJECTIVETo investigate clinical and epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized severe acute respiratory illnesses (SARI) patients under 15 years old registered by sentinel hospitals at 10 cities and risk factors analysis of severe illness.

METHODSThe objects of this study were 2 937 SARI patients under 15 years old registered by sentinel surveillance in internal wards, pediatrics wards and intensive care units (ICU) of 10 sentinel hospitals in 10 cities during the period from December 2009 to June 2014. We also collected case report form (CRF) of them and their throat swabs for influenza testing. The inclusion criteria was hospitalized patients who were admitted by surveillance departments, registered by SARI surveillance system, under 15 years old, meeting SARI case definition and with complete CRF. Rank-sum test was used to compare the difference of age, the duration including from onset to admission, hospital stay and from onset to discharging/death between mild illness and severe illness. Chi-square test was used to compare the difference of demographic characteristics, influenza psoitive rate, vaccination rate of influenza, chronic medical conditions and clinical characteristics between mild illness and severe illness. Logistic regression was used to analysis risk factors associated with severe illness by two stratifications from SARI surveillance protocol (< 2 years old and ≥ 2 years old).

RESULTSAmong 2 937 SARI patients under 15 years old, 97.7% (2 872/2 937) was mild illnesses, and 2.3% (65/2 937) was severe illnesses. 78.8% (2 315/2 937) was under 5 years old. The median ages of severe illness and mild illness were 0.4 and 2.0 years old (U = -6.23, P < 0.001). The proportions of severe illness and mild illness with at least one chronic medical condition were 32.3% (21/65) and 8.4% (240/2 872) (χ² = 45.03, P < 0.001). The positive rate of influenza virus was 6.5% (190/2 937), which was 6.5% (186/2 858) for mild illness and 6.2% (4/65) for severe illness (χ² = 0.08, P = 0.961). The proportion of seasonal influenza vaccination was 1.5% (42/2 853), which was 1.5% (42/2 788) for mild illness and higher than that for severe illness (0) (χ² = 6.09, P = 0.048). For under 2 years old patients, age < 11 months and with at least one chronic medical condition were risk factors for severe SARI illness, and the risk for SARI patients who was 12-23 months and without medical condition was 14.71 (5.35-40.44) and 5.61 (2.96-10.63). For ≥ 2 years old patients, age, with at least one chronic medical condition and seasonal influenza vaccination history have no association with severe illness, OR (95% CI) was 0.92 (0.80-1.05), 0.67 (0.09-5.05) and 0.85 (0.31-2.35), respectively.

CONCLUSIONMost of SARI patients registered by 10 urban sentinel hospitals were patients under 5 years old. Age < 11 months and with at least chronic medical conditions were possible risk factors of severe illness of SARI patients.

OBJECTIVETo identify clinical characteristics of hospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases of children under 15 years old, and their risk factors of influenza infection.

METHODSAnalyzing the reports of hospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases of children under 15 years old who were detected by the sentinel surveillance systems in 10 provinces from December 2009 to June 2014. Such data as their demographic, medical history, clinical symptoms and signs, treatment and outcome were collected using questionnaires, with their clinical characteristics and their risk factors of influenza infection described.

RESULTSOf the 2 937 severe acute respiratory infection inpatients, 190 (6.5%) were laboratory-confirmed influenza cases. 123 (64.7%) of such confirmed cases were male, and 139 (73.2%) were children under 5 years old, with age median of 3.0 years (IQR: 1.0-5.0 years). 20 (10.5%) of them had at least one chronic medical condition, mostly chronic cardiovascular disease (3.2%), immunosuppressive disease (3.2%), and cancer/tumor (2.6%). Most common clinical symptoms of the cases were fever (92.6%) and cough (88.8%), of which abnormal pulmonary auscultation (51.1%) and abnormal chest X-ray performance (36.1%) were the most common clinical signs. 29 cases (15.8%) had complications, of which pneumonia (15.3%) was most common. 16 cases (8.6%) used antiviral drugs, and 4 cases (2.2%) were admitted into ICU. Risk factor analysis suggested that age < 6 months (OR = 0.406, 95% CI: 0.203-0.815) was a protective factor against influenza infection; and age 5-9 years old (OR = 2.535, 95% CI: 1.059-6.066) was a risk factor for influenza infection.

CONCLUSIONHospitalized laboratory-confirmed influenza cases were found mostly in children under 5 years old. Risk exposure for influenza infection varied among age groups.
