Based on the patient,bundled payment was known as episode-based payment,which pay the overall treatment cost on a or multiple medical service providers.In the current,there were 3 main bundled payment model in the United States,including confirm service,Prometheus and service improvement payment.The series of research showed that,bundled payment could decrease the cost of medical service based on keeping even improving medical service quality.Based on diagnosis related groups (DRGs),bundled payment increased total prepayment control and introduced the calculation method on cost prepayment ratio and potential avoidable allowance and reward for complication.The cost control based on the evidence and the incentive mechanism based on the encourage were all worth for references.

BACKGROUND: The association of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) gene polymorphisms with the onset and development of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) has been the focus of studies on AS in the field of genetics.OBJECTIVE: To explore the association of the polymophisms of TNF-α promoter gene at positions-308 and -238 with AS susceptibility and clinical pathological changes.DESIGN: A case-control study.SETTING:The Rheumatic Immunology Department of Changhai Hospital of the Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Totally, 108 AS patients were recruited from Rheumatic Immunology Department of Changhai Hospital, Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from January 1999 to December 2003 ,they had no kinship. The ratio of men to women was 5.3: 1. They aged from 13 to 71 (30-± 12) years old, and AS was divided into Ⅰ- Ⅳ radiographic stages according to the sacro-iliac joint damage. A total of 100 healthy controls were randomly selected from the blood donators(Shanghai Hospital) who were aged from 19 -56 (33 ±9) years old, and the ratio of men to women was 4.9: 1. Informed consent was obtained from all the subjects.ti-coagulated with EDTA. Polymerase chain reaction amplification and purification of the TNF-α promoter region was made and the sequence of polymerase chain reaction products was examined and displayed by Chromas 1.62 softcorresponding radiographic stage of sacro-iliac joint damage was assessed to investigate the influence of gene polymorphisms on AS.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: DNA direct sequencing method was used to detect -238 and -308 allele phenotypes for investigating the association with clinical presentations.G and -238G/A allele was 98.1% (106 cases) and1. 9% (2 cases) respectively in AS group and 95.0% (95 cases) and 5.0% (5 cases) respecquency of TNF-α promoter gene at positions -308. 1.1(G/G) and - 308.1.2(G/A) alleles was 82.4% (89 cases) and 17.6% (192 cases) respectively in AS group, which was not significantly different compared respectively with 85.0% (85 cases) and 14.0% (14 cases) of the control of sacro-iliac joint damage and the frequency of TNF-α promoter gene at the position of - 308 (G/G) and (G/A): AS patients with(G/G) phenotype who were confirmed of radiographic stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ were observed in 3/35/40/11cases,compared with (G/A) phenotype of 1/12/6/0 cases.The difference was statistically significant (χ2GMH = 4.77, P ＜ 0.05 ).CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that the polymorphisms of TNF-α promoter gene at positions of - 238 and - 308 allele has no association with AS susceptibility, but the polymorphisms of TNF - α promoter gene at the position of -308 might exert great influence on AS according to the radiographic stage of sacro-iliac joint damage.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of nasal-insertion type ileus-tube in the treatment of adhesive small intestinal obstruction. Methods A total of 221 patients with simple adhesive small intestinal obstruction, who were admitted to authors’ hospital during the period from January 2010 to Aug. 2014, were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly divided into nasal-insertion type ileus-tube group (n=111) and nasogastric tube group (n=110). After the procedure, the patients were kept under close observation, focusing on the abdominal distention, gastrointestinal decompression amount, the recovery time of anal exhaustion and defecation, the vanishing time of intestinal air-liquid plane on erect abdominal X-ray film, etc. The cure rate, effective rate and transit-operation rate were calculated. The results were compared between the two groups. Results The tube placement operation was successfully performed in all patients. Compared with the nasogastric tube group, in the nasal-insertion type ileus-tube group the recovery time of abdominal distention, anal exhaustion and defecation and the vanishing time of intestinal air-liquid plane on erect abdominal X-ray film were obviously shorter, and the gastrointestinal decompression amount was larger. In the nasal-insertion type ileus-tube group the cure rate and effective rate were significantly increased, while the transit-operation rate was decreased; the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of adhesive small intestinal obstruction, the placement of nasal-insertion type ileus-tube is effective and reliable. This technique can strikingly improve the clinical symptoms, therefore, it is worthy of promotion and application in clinical practice.

Objective: To determine the hemoglobin level and blood pressure and the factors that influence their recovery in relocated workers who were unfit for duties at high altitude. Methods: The physical examination data of 693 relocated workers who previously worked at high altitude were dynamically monitored from January 2006 to June 2015 in order to examine the recovery of hemoglobin level and blood pressure. Results: The rate of hemoglobin recovery was 81.37% among the 161 relocated workers with abnormal hemoglobin levels, and the rate of blood pressure recovery was 69.51% among the 164 relocated workers with abnormal blood pressure. The rates of hemoglobin and blood pressure recovery were decreased in individuals aged 40 years and older. The peak recovery time of hemoglobin was 11-15 months following relocation, and that of blood pressure was 5-7 months and 11-13 months following relocation. The half-year blood pressure recovery rate and 2-year hemoglobin recovery rate following relocation were significantly higher in workers who worked at 2500-3000 m altitude than in those at ≥3000 m (P<0.05) . Total cholesterol and educational level were factors that influence the half-year blood pressure recovery in relocated workers (P<0.05) . Conclusion The rate of hemoglobin and blood pressure recovery are high among relocated workers who previously worked at high altitude. Factors that influence blood pressure, such as total cholesterol, should be closely monitored so that high-altitude workers with abnormal blood pressure and hemoglobin level can be relocated as early as possible.

OBJECTIVETo analyze and compare burden of disease caused by malignant tumor in China, 1990 and 2010.

METHODSThe indicators including prevalence, death, years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and disability adjusted of life years (DALY) of malignant tumor from the results of Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2010 were used to calculate the standardized prevalence rate, mortality rate, YLL rate, YLD rate and DALY rate with the 2010 national census data. The research described the prevalence, death, and burden of disease caused by malignant tumor and analyze the trend of these indicators in 1990 and 2010 in China.

RESULTSIn China from 1990 to 2010, the standardized prevalence rate of malignant tumor increased from 529.76/100 000 to 749.57/100 000 (increased by 41.49%); the standardized mortality rate decreased from 196.57/100 000 to 169.88/100 000 (decreased by 13.58%); the standardized DALY rate decreased from 5 206.56/100 000 to 4 150.86/100 000. In 2010, the top five standardized DALY rate of malignant tumor were lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, and colorectal cancer. Their standardized DALY rate were 892.21/100 000, 787.40/100 000, 521.36/100 000, 303.95/100 000, and 269.94/100 000, respectively. In all kind of malignant tumors, the burden of disease of lung cancer had the fastest-growing rate. The standardized mortality rate of lung cancer increased from 34.78/100 000 in 1990 to 41.09/100 000 in 2010; the standardized DALY rate increased from 830.77/100 000 in 1990 to 892.21/100 000 in 2010. The burden of disease of gastric cancer had the fastest-falling rate. The standardized mortality rate of gastric cancer decreased from 39.65/100 000 in 1990 to 23.79/100 000 in 2010; the standardized DALY rate decreased from 968.96/100 000 in 1990 to 521.36/100 000 in 2010.

CONCLUSIONThe burden of disease caused by malignant tumor in China remained at high levels in 2010. The top five burden of disease of malignant tumor were lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, and colorectal cancer. The burden of disease of lung cancer had the fastest-growing rate and gastric cancer had the fastest-falling rate from 1990 to 2010 in China. Prevention and control of malignant tumor was still difficult.

Objective To quantitatively estimate the deaths and life expectancy losses attributable to diet high in sodium in China,and examine the gains and shifts under different control scenarios of sodium consumption.Methods Based on data from the cause-of-death through the National Mortality Surveillance System,and 24 hours urinary sodium values from Global Burden of Disease study on Chinese's estimates,population attributable fractions with the framework of comparative risk assessment were used to analyze the deaths and life expectancy losses due to diet high in sodium.The same methods were followed to examine the gains and shifts under different control scenarios of sodium consumption.Results In 2013,1 430 (940 for men and 490 for women)thousand deaths were attributable to diet high in sodium,accounting for 15.6％ (17.4％ for men and 13.0％ for women) of all-cause deaths in China,which causing 2.17 (2.49 for men and 1.71 for women) years of life expectancy loss.Diet with high sodium in 2013 caused 1 200,50 and 180 thousand deaths from cardiovascular disease,chronic kidney disease and stomach cancer respectively,accounting for 31.5％,30.8％ and 64.8％ of those specific causes.Comparing to the baseline in 2013,if the targets of 10％ decrease of sodium consumption by 2020 and 15％ by 2030 for Chinese chronic disease prevention and treatment planning,and 30％ decrease by 2030 for WHO non-communicable disease monitoring framework are achieved,220,340 and 730 thousand deaths will be averted,which may gain 0.30,0.45 and 0.95 years of life expectancy,respectively.Conclusions As one of the leading risk factors,diet high in sodium had caused heavy burden of disease from cardiovascular disease,chronic kidney disease and stomach cancer on Chinese residents.Intervention programs on sodium-reductionare urgently needed in China and related cost-effectiveness is highly expected.

INTRODUCTION: Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most prevalent X-linked intellectual disability (ID) and a leading genetic cause of autism, characterised by cognitive and behavioural impairments. The hyperexpansion of a CGG repeat in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene leads to abnormal hypermethylation, resulting in the lack or absence of its protein. Tools for establishing the diagnosis of FXS have been extensively developed, including assays based on triplet-primed polymerase chain reaction (TP-PCR) for detection and quantification of the CGG trinucleotide repeat expansion, as well as determination of the methylation status of the alleles. This study aimed to utilise a simple, quick and affordable method for high sensitivity and specificity screening and diagnosis of FXS in institutionalised individuals with ID. METHODS: A total of 109 institutionalised individuals at the Center for Social Rehabilitation of Intellectual Disability Kartini, Temanggung, Central Java, Indonesia, were screened in a three-step process using FastFrax™ Identification, Sizing and Methylation Status Kits. RESULTS: Two samples that were classified as indeterminate with respect to the 41-repeat control at the identification step were subsequently determined to be non-expanded by both sizing and methylation status analyses. Two samples classified as expanded at the identification step were determined to carry full mutation expansions > 200 repeats that were fully methylated using sizing and methylation status analyses, respectively, yielding a disease prevalence of 1.83%. CONCLUSION Repeat expansion and methylation-specific TP-PCR is practical, effective and inexpensive for the diagnosis of FXS, especially in high-risk populations of individuals with ID of undetermined aetiology.
