Objective:To explore the correlation between changing trajectories of serum uric acid and the onset of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods:A longitudinal cohort study. Total of 3 353 subjects who had routine health examination every year from January 2017 to December 2019 in the Health Management Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University and met the inclusion criteria were selected as the research subjects. Four different serum uric acid trajectory groups were determined by using the group-based trajectory model: the low stability group, medium stability group, medium-high stability group and high stability group. During the follow-up to December 2021, the differences in cumulative incidence of NAFLD in different serum uric acid trajectory groups were calculated and compared. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to evaluate the hazard ratio ( HR) and 95% confidence interval ( CI) of the NAFLD onset in different serum uric acid trajectory groups. The dose-response relationship between baseline serum uric acid and NAFLD was evaluated by a restricted cubic spline regression model. Results:The cumulative incidence of NAFLD in two years was 10.77%, and the cumulative incidence increased with the rising trajectory of serum uric acid, it was the highestin the high stability group ( P<0.05). Compared that in the low stability group, the risk of NAFLD in the other three groups was as follows: 2.24 (95% CI: 1.59-3.14) in the medium stability group, 2.89 (95% CI: 1.92-4.33) in the medium-high stability group and 4.55 (95% CI:2.83-7.31) in the high stability group (all P<0.05). The risk of NAFLD gradually increased with the rising of serum uric acid level, and the cut-off value of serum uric acid for women and men was 260.32 μmol/L and 365.09 μmol/L, respectively. Conclusions:Long-term moderate and high levels of serum uric acid are independent risk factors for the occurrence of NAFLD. With the rising of serum uric acid trajectory, the risk of NAFLD increases. Attention should be paid to the longitudinal change trend of serum uric acid level in the prevention of NAFLD, and it should be controlled within lower level of the normal range.

Objective:To analyze the research hotspots and frontiers in the training of health management talents in China based on knowledge mapping.Methods:The literature related to talent training in health management was retrieved from the databases of CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP Journals from 2007 to 2022. The keywords used for retrieval included “health management” “curriculum system” “health manager” “evaluation system” “health service and management” and “talent training”. The time distribution of the literature was analyzed using Excel. Bibliometric analysis was conducted to visually analyze the research in health management talent training, focusing on authorship and collaboration, research institutions, high-frequency keywords, and research hotspots. A knowledge map was created to outline the research framework.Results:A total of 378 journal articles were retrieved. Over the past decade, there has been an overall increasing trend in the number of research publications related to health management talent training. The highest number of articles was published in 2021 (63 articles). In terms of spatial distribution, highly productive authors were relatively concentrated, and research institutions were mostly universities, with Hangzhou Normal University having the highest number of publications (14 articles). The research hotspots included health managers, practice teaching modes, cross-cultivation, and discipline construction. The research frontiers concentrated on talent training modes, health service and management professions, talent demand, and curriculum system construction.Conclusions:In the past decade, health management talents training in China has received more attention and importance. However, there is limited exchange and cooperation among authors and research institutions, and the research hotspots continue to extend in the direction of specialization and diversification. The transformation from vocational education to academic education and strengthening professional construction are the frontiers of the research.

Objective:To explore the application status and trends of the health examination data.Methods:Relevant literatures on health examination data were retrieved from Web of Science from 1 January 2007 to 30 June 2022 and China Knowledge Network Infrastructure from 1 January 1992 to 30 June 2022; and the literature and research contents were visually analyzed by using CiteSpace 6.1 bibliometrics software.Results:Total of 5 517 Chinese articles and 18 563 English articles were selected. The publication volume of health examination data in China increased year by year since 1992, and the international publication volume also showed an increasing trend. The Chinese literature focused on health management, osteoporosis, overweight, and physical examination subjects such as pilots, while the English literature focused on the study of obesity, care and functional cognition after the formation of a cohort of physical examination data. More co-citation papers related to health examination data were published in the journals from developed countries mainly in the United States and the United Kingdom, and the contents of the co-cited journals highly covered disease research on chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, functional cognition and rehabilitation.Conclusions:The number of articles published on health examination data is increasing year by year, and in the future, more studies will use big data algorithms such as machine learning to measure the association between the risk of chronic diseases and related influencing factors.

Objective:To explore the currents status of central vascular access devices (CVADs) in children's medical center in China and to provide a reference for the standardized use of CVADs and specialized nursing as well as a basis for pediatric intravenous therapy management.Methods:Totally 31 hospitals of Futang Research Center of Pediatric Development, children's hospitals of the medical treatment alliance as well as women and children care centers and general hospitals with pediatric departments were selected by convenient sampling from July 23rd to 31st, 2018. All the pediatric patients using CVADs were investigated with the Central Vascular Access Device Questionnaire which was designed by the research group, and the incidence of complications was also observed. Totally 1 333 questionnaires were collected, among which 1 288 were valid, accounting for an effective recovery rate of 96.62%.Results:There were 22 ClassⅢ and 9 ClassⅡ hospitals among the 31 hospitals. Among the 1 288 pediatric patients who used CVADs, 860 used peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) , accounting for 66.77%; 342 used central venous catheters (CVC) , accounting for 26.55%; 77 used implantable venous access port (PORT) , accounting for 5.98%; and 9 used umbilical venous catheters, accounting for 0.70%. CVADs were mainly used in the Departments of Hematological Neoplasms, ICU, Intensive Care Unit Pediatric Surgery, Vasculocardiology and Neonatals. PICC, CVC and PORT were mainly applied to upper extremities (90.00%, 74 cases) , jugular vein (73.39%, 251 cases) and the breast (96.10%, 74 cases) respectively. In the maintenance of CVADs, there was the problem of co-existing dressings.Conclusions:CVADs have been widely used in pediatric patients, and the choice of CVADs is relatively standardized. However, the maintenance of the catheters, the use of dressings, the selection of infusion connectors and the control of related complications still need to be strengthened. It is recommended that nursing professionals and nursing managers should further strengthen their knowledge about the placement and maintenance of CVADs, and intensify their management and supervision in accordance with international and national guidelines and standards for intravenous infusion therapy to further reduce the incidence of vascular access complications in pediatric patients.
