Objective:In order to develop a comprehensive hospital debt risk model,it is imperative to conduct an analysis of the present debt risk landscape within public hospitals,so as to furnish hospitals with recommendations to avert potential debt risks.Methods:A debt risk model was constructed based on 7 common factors through the extraction and standardization of data from 25 indicators,using 600 public hospitals in a specific province as samples,followed by factor analysis.Results:The model's calculation of the comprehensive score of public hospitals aligns with professional explanations and provides a more accurate representation of the factors influencing the debt risk level of public hospitals,such as financial investment level,hospital type,hierarchy,and others.Conclusion:In conclusion,the model is efficient.It is imperative to adopt a comprehensive perspective on the matter of hospital debt and efficiently address the associated financial risks faced by public hospitals by fostering collaboration among multiple stakeholders and upholding fundamental principles.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the surgical outcomes of different uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP). METHODS: All subjects underwent overnight polysomnography and were evaluated using the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), the Quebec sleep questionnaire and the snoring scale at the baseline and 3 and 12 months following operation. The primary endpoint was the overall effective rate representing the sum of the surgical success rate and effective rate. RESULTS: The overall effective rate at 12 months post surgery was 55.6% for simple UPPP, 95.8% for UPPP+GA, and 92.3% for UPPP+TBA. The surgical success rate at 3 and 12 months postoperation for UPPP+GA or UPPP+TBA was significantly higher than simple UPPP (P<0.05). Marked improvement was observed in all patients in the snoring scale score and the ESS score 3 and 12 months following surgery compared to the baseline (P<0.05 in all). CONCLUSION: UPPP, UPPP+GA, and UPPP+TBA are all effective in improving the surgical outcome of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients with multilevel obstruction. UPPP+TBA appears to be the most effective in treating OSAHS patients.
