2.Explore the breadth and depth of clinical research and applications of fundus autofluorescence
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2011;27(4):309-313
Fundus autofluorescence (FAF) relies primarily on the presence of accumulated lipofuscin in the retinal pigment epithelium (PRE) cells. It has emerged as a valuable tool to detect and evaluate the viability and structural changes of the RPE in live. As a non-invasive, repeatable, simple and efficient means of detection. FAF imaging can provide information of RPE structure and function to assistant the diagnosis of many retinal diseases with other conventional fundus imaging technologies. With quantitative analysis and complementary analysis with other fundus imaging technologies, the FAF features of different retinal diseases will be further understood. This knowledge will not only extend the reasonable and unique clinical applications of FAF, but also will contribute to the understanding the pathogenesis and improving the treatment of many retinal diseases.
3.Analysis of the agglomeration degree of health resources in Traditional Chinese Medicine
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2016;32(10):789-792
Objective To evaluate the quantity,category and the distribution of health resources of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)in order to advise on optimizing TCM service system.Methods Based on the concept of agglomeration degree,this paper compared and analyzed the agglomeration of TCM resources in terms of medical institutions,their beds and medical workers.Results Currently the agglomeration degree of TCM health resources is found to be low,as TCM medical institutions tend to be small,with most of them being TCM clinics.Conclusions To rationalize the distribution of TCM medical resources,we must increase financial input and provide supportive policies,actively encourage healthy development of TCM medical institutions,strength TCM medical service system development in areas of poor TCM resources.
4.Serum miRNA: a new marker of cancer diagnosis
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(9):678-679
Dysfunction of microRNA (miRNA) is associated with occurrence and development of tumor.MiRNA are very stable in blood serum,significantly tumor-related and tissue-specific.The detection of serum miRNA is convenient,little-invasive and fast,and then serum miRNA can be used as a new biomarker for tumor diagnosis.
5.Influence of puerarin injection(葛根素注射液) on endothelial functions in patients with variant angina pectoris
Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine in Intensive and Critical Care 2001;8(1):31-32
Objective:To observe the curative effects of puerarin injection(葛根素注射液) on variant angina pectoris(VAP) and its influences on endothelial functions.Methods:Fortyeight cases with VAP were randomly divided into treated and control group.The treated group was treated with puerarin injection 300500 mg infused intravenously once a day,meanwhile the control group treated with conventional therapy.The therapeutic course was 1014 days for both groups.Before and after using drugs the changes in endothelin(ET) and nitric oxide (NO) were observed in two groups.Results:In both groups after therapy the clinically symptomatic convalescences and changes in electrocardiography (ECG) compared with before therapy had significant differences,but in comparison between two groups the differences had not statistical significant.Otherwise regarding to the ET and NO the differences were significant between treated group and control group.Conclusions:Puerarin injection not only possesses obviously curative effects on symptomatic convalescence and ECG changes but also is able to improve the endothelial functions.
6.Breakdown of health resources efficiency and analysis of inter-provincial differences in China
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2011;27(5):321-324
Objective To analyze the inter-provincial utilization efficiency of health resources and master the differences between these regions so as to rationalize the allocation of such resources.Methods This paper called into play the data envelopment analysis to survey the efficiency of interprovincial health resourcas utilization,and the Malmquist productivity index method for further breakdown of the total factor productivity.Results Years 2003 to 2008 averaged an yearly growth of 6.8% for the total factor productivity of health resources in 31 provinces;the rate of technological progress was positive,while the annual rate averaged 5.2%;a slight growth of technical efficiency at the growth rate of 1.5%.Conclusion Years 2003 to 2008 saw an increase of varying extent in the total factor productivity,yet an insufficient utilization of health technology in the provinces in general.Compared to the efficiency of the central provinces,low efficiency was found in both the eastern and western regions in China.The westem regions made a faster progress in technology utilization,thus narrowing the gap of health resources among the provinces.
7.GPRC5A and lung cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2013;40(7):515-516
The G protein-coupled receptor family C,member 5,group A (GPRC5A) gene is known as retinoic acid-induced gene,which is mainly distributed in lung tissue.The expression of GPRC5A in lung cancer is significantly decreased compared with normal lung.GPRC5A leads to lung cancer through knockout mice,which is proven to be a suppressor gene of lung cancer.GPRC5A may be a novel biomarker for the diagnosis of lung cancer and a new target for the treatment of lung cancer.
8.Application of balanced scorecard in healthcare organizations
Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2006;0(01):-
Based on the organizational strategy,the balanced scorecard(BSC) is a kind of customized performance measurement system.Put forward by Robert Kaplan and David Norton in 1990,it has been using at several healthcare organizations and led to a great deal of innovation in organizing and management.This paper aims to introduce the composition,characteristics and successful cases of BSC,and analyze the feasibility of adopting this method in domestic healthcare organizations.
9.Research on evaluation system and impact factors for public interest nature in public hospitals
Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2009;29(6):737-740
Objective To establish the evaluation system and explore the possible impact factors for public interest nature in public hospitals. Methods One hundred and twenty-five public hospitals in Zhejiang Province were served as sample hospitals, and related data of year 2004 to year 2006 were collected. The Delphi expert investigation method, variation coefficient method and TOPSIS method were employed to screen the impact factors for public interest nature and build up the evaluation system for public hospitals, and stepwise regression analysis was conducted for possible impact factors of public interest nature. Results The evaluation system mainly included five aspects of quantity, quality, efficiency, mean charge of medical service and social satisfaction to public hospitals. The two most important factors that influenced the public interest nature were the number of beds and the number of equipments valued above 10 000 RMB. Conclusion The hospital scale is the most important impact factor for the nature of public interest in public hospitals. Therefore, the scale of public hospitals should be properly designed so as to ensure the public interest nature in public hospitals.

Objective To determine the quantitative indices of conservative treatment for perforation of peptic ulcer. Methods The clinical data of 321 patients admitted from 1990 to1999 were analyzed retrospectively. Score was obtained according to patients' age, extension of abdominal pain, time of perforation, fever,abdominal paracentisis,free air of abdominal cavity, etc.Results Conservative treatment was given to 85 patients who scored ≤ 2, of whom 81 (95.2%) recovered.In 22 patients who scored 3, 16 (72.7%) recovered.In 8 patients who scored 4, 2 (25.0%) recovered.Conclusions If the perforating ulcer patients scored less than 2, conservative treatment should be given.For those who scored 3, conservative treatment can be given for the first 24h,and then whether to continue conservative treatment or change to operation should be considered according to patients' condition.For patients scored ≥ 4 , an operation should be performed as soon as possible.
