Objective:To investigate the effects of sign-contract services on hypertension patient disease control and the satisfaction of medical staff. Methods:a face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted among hypertension patients selected from 20 primary health centers in 10 provinces in China. Results:This paper collected 1 ,881 valid questionnaires, and the average age of the population was 65. 72 ± 10. 88. Respondents that received sign-contract services accounted for 53. 88%, and there was no difference between patients who signed the service contract and who did not in terms of demographics. In self-reporting of blood pressure controls, respondents who signed the service contract, aged 40~50 years old, enjoyed the free medical care, preferred to seek medical services from primary a-gencies ( i. e. community health centers and township hospitals) for minor illnesses, controlled their blood pressure better ( P<0. 05 ) . Respondents enjoyed the civil resident medical insurance, preferred to seek medical care from community health centers for minor illnesses and signed the service contract were more likely to be satisfied with their medical practitioner (P<0. 05). After adjusting for age, gender, education level, medical insurance style, patient willingness to seek medical care for minor illnesses, signing service contracts was found to be an independent factor both associated with blood pressure self-control and attitudes towards medical service providers, with the odds ratio of 3. 007 (95%CI:2. 572 -3. 517) and 1. 814 (95%CI: 1. 563 -2. 105) respectively. Conclusion: Contracts are correlated with blood pressure control and satisfaction toward medical practitioners, which means that patients who signed the service contract control their blood pressure better and are more satisfied with their medical deliverers.

Objective To understand the status of service contract signing conducted by primary medical and health institutions.Methods A questionnaire survey and in-depth interview methods were used to study the service contract signing at primary health care institutions.Results The contract signing rate of the institutions surveyed was 1 9.1%,and valid contract signing rate was 76%.Senior people above 65 years old accounted for 33.5% of those signers,while hypertension patients accounted for 1 9.5% and diabetes patients for 10.6%.Interviews to the general practitioners team at the primary health institutions found that main factors affecting residents′ intention to sign were drug availability, attraction for signing the services,treatment habits among others.Interviews to the staff the primary health institutions found that contracted services are facing such difficulties as medical staff shortage,lack of motivation,lack of competence among others.Interviews to leaders of the primary health institutions found that the lack of publicity and support of medical insurance also has great influence to service contract signing.Conclusions The enthusiasm of general practitioners and residents to sign up for the service remains to be improved.

This study aimed at analyzing the medication regularity based on differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for losing weight using text mining technique.All the references over losing weight were retrieved in CNKI,Wangfang Database,VIP Database and Pubmed.The drugs from the references were classified in accordance with drug property,drug flavor,channel tropism and drug efficacy.Frequency and constituent ratio of a single drug in TCM prescriptions for losing weight were put into analysis using chi square test and factor analysis to find out the medication regularity.It was found that the properties of TCM drugs in the prescriptions contained both cold and warm,while the flavors of the drugs involved pungent,sweet and light.The channel tropism of the drugs mainly belonged to spleen meridian,liver meridian,stomach meridian and lung meridian.They were mostly tonic,relieving,blood-activating,qi regulating,inhibiting-damp and antipyretic drugs.Through factor analysis we found that the common formula compatibilities were concluded as:cassia seed,lotus leaf,hawthorn,salvia miltiorrhiza,polygonum cuspidatum and radix polygonum multiflorum;capillary artemisia,epimedium herb,stephania tetrandra and ligusticum wallichii;dried tangerine peel,pinellia ternata and poria cocos;plantain seed,pericarpium arecae and selfheal;paeonia lactiflora,angelica sinensis,scutellaria baicalensis and ligusticum wallichii;poria cocos,cassia twig,atractylodes and glycyrrhiza;immature bitter orange and bark of magnolia;radix bupleuri,lycium chinensis and jujube;Chinese yam and coix seed;and astragalus,pueraria lobata and polygonatum.In conclusion,formula compatibility mainly combined syndrome differentiation with disease differentiation for the treatment of obesity in clinic,using the drugs belonging to liver meridian,spleen meridian,stomach meridian and lung meridian with the flavors of sweet,bitterness or pungent and the nature of both warm and cold.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystem shunt (TIPS) and gastric coronary vein embolization (GCVE) in the treatment of patients with cirrhosis,portal hypertension and upper gastrointestinal bleeding.Methods From Jan 2014 to May 2017 72 patients were enrolled and divided into the TIPS group (36 cases,receiving TIPS) and TIPS + E group (36 cases,byTIPS+GCVE).Results Portal vein diameter (1.21 ±0.08)cm vs.(1.26 ±0.09)cm,portal pressure (23.9 ± 2.1) cmH2O vs.(25.1 ± 2.2) cmH2O and congestion index (0.06 ± 0.03) cm/s vs.(0.08 ±0.03) after 1 month of treatment in TIPS + E group was significantly lower than the TIPS group,and the portal vein velocity was significantly higher than that of the TIPS group (42 ± 6) cm/s vs.(38 ± 7) cm/s,t =2.491,2.367,2.828,t =2.343,all P ＜ 0.05.The Child-Pugh score in the TIPS + E group was significantly lower than that in the TIPS group (7.9 ± 1.4) vs.8.6 ± 1.6,t =2.074,P =0.042).There was no statisticall different difference in postoperative hepatic encephalopathy in the two groups (17％ vs.11％,x2 =0.465,P =0.496).The one-year rebleeding rates in the TIPS group and the TIPS + E group were 14％ and 3％,respectively.The risk of rebleeding in the TIPS + E group was significantly lower than that in the TIPS group (HR =0.218,P =0.041).The one-year access obstruction rates in the TIPS group and the TIPS + E group were 17％ and 14％,respectively.(P =0.679).The all-cause mortality rates of the TIPS group and the TIPS + E group were 8％ and 3％,respectively,showing no statistically (P =0.299).Conclusions TIPS + GCVE therapy in the treatment of portal hypertensive upper gastrointestinal bleeding effectively reduces the risk of rebleeding.

Objective: To determine the active components of Eupolyphaga sinensis Walker (Tu Bie Chong) and explore the mechanisms underlying its fracture-healing ability. Methods: A modified Einhorn method was used to develop a rat tibial fracture model. Progression of bone healing was assessed using radiological methods. Safranin O/fast green and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were performed to evaluate the growth of bone cells and angiogenesis at the fracture site. Methylthiazoletetrazolium blue and wound healing assays were used to analyze cell viability and migration. The Transwell assay was used to explore the invasion capacity of the cells. Tubule formation assays were used to assess the angiogenesis capacity of human vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). qRT-PCR was used to evaluate the changes in gene transcription levels. Results: Tu Bie Chong fraction 3 (TF3) significantly shortened the fracture healing time in model rats. X-ray results showed that on day 14, fracture healing in the TF3 treatment group was significantly better than that in the control group (P = .0086). Tissue staining showed that cartilage growth and the number of H-shaped blood vessels at the fracture site of the TF3 treatment group were better than those of the control group. In vitro, TF3 significantly promoted the proliferation and wound healing of MC3T3-E1s and HUVECs (all P < .01). Transwell assays showed that TF3 promoted the migration of HUVECs, but inhibited the migration of MC3T3-E1 cells. Tubule formation experiments confirmed that TF3 markedly promoted the ability of vascular endothelial cells to form microtubules. Gene expression analysis revealed that TF3 significantly promoted the expression of VEGFA, SPOCD1, NGF, and NGFR in HUVECs. In MC3T3-E1 cells, the transcript levels of RUNX2 and COL2A1 were significantly elevated following TF3 treatment. Conclusion TF3 promotes fracture healing by promoting bone regeneration associated with the RUNX2 pathway and angiogenesis associated with the VEGFA pathway.
