ObjectiveTo assess the effectiveness of tele-medicine and self-management goal(SMG) setting technique used in the diabetes management in the community setting.Methods It is a control-group study.415 type 2 diabetic residents were recruited from the Shanghai Wuliqiao community based on existing medical records.The subjects were divided into two groups,the study group was cared by general practitioners (GPs) specialists cooperation through the tele-medicine mechanism,the other was a control group.For the study group,a cooperation pathway between community health care centers and general hospitals were established.Standardized training and guidelines were provided to community health workers,regarding the setting of management goals of blood glucose and blood pressure,treatment plan,patient education,and SMG techniques.Fasting blood glucose ( FBG ) and 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2hBG) in the study group were monitored,followed by community health workers visiting monthly with seminars for diabetes education.At the baseline and the 12tb month,FBG,2hBG,HbA1C,blood pressure,triglyceride,total cholesterol,body mass index,waist-hip ratio were determined in each group.A survey was conducted to evaluate the costs of diabetes treatments,the knowledge base related to their disease,lifestyle,and the awareness of the new care model.The rates of achieving the goal of blood glucose,blood pressure,and HbA1Ccontrol were calculated.Internet case discussion between GPs-Specialists and referral to certain specialists were implemented when some patients did not reach the control goal.ResultsBy the 12 month follow up,FBG,2hBG,HbAIc,blood pressure of the study group were lower than the baseline,and as well as the control group with statical significance (P＜0.05).There are other improvcments:diabetes knowledge (29.1％ vs 5.5％ ),healthy diet (9.6％ vs -10.4％ ),blood glucose monitoring (30.3％ vs 10.8％ ),support for diabetes care in community (35.7％ vs 9.4％ ),and the preference of the new model (63.8％ vs 17.9％ ) with statistical significauce (P＜0.01 ).As for the medical costs,the study group's monthly costs were consistently lower than the control's.( -3.39Yuan vs 32.26 Yuan,P＜0.05).ConclusionsThe new diabetes care model based on GPs-Specialists tele-medicine and SMG in community opens the door to the community based care model formulation in regard to the health quality and costs control.The deployment of more technologies and management techniques could be explored further to improve the outcomes of community based chronic disease care model.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the cost-effectiveness of two breast cancer screening modalities conducted in Minhang district of Shanghai, China.

METHODSAn organized and an opportunistic breast screening programs were implemented among women aged 35-74 years in Minhang district of Shanghai between May 2008 and Oct 2010, and were compared with the results obtained without screening. Costs related to screening were obtained by access to finance data of the screening programs, and costs of first treatment were collected through patient survey and medical reimbursement system query. Information on breast cancer stage was obtained from Shanghai Cancer Registry and confirmed by medical chart review. The effectiveness of screening was evaluated by breast cancer stage improvement.Cost-effectiveness ratios (CERs) were computed as costs of gaining a stage improvement from a specified screening strategy when compared with the results obtained without screening. Incremental cost-effectiveness (ICER) which compares the two screening strategies was calculated by dividing the difference in total net costs and the difference in stages improved between the two screening strategies.

RESULTSThirty-five, one hundred and ninety-three and four hundred and seventy-nine breast cancer cases were identified in the organized screening, opportunistic screening and control groups, with an early detection rate of 46.9%, 40.7% and 38.9%, respectively. The costs of screening were 208 yuan per person or 72 453 yuan per case detected in the organized screening group and were 21 yuan per person or 11 640 yuan per case detected in the opportunistic screening group. The total cost was 103 650 yuan per case in the organized screening group, significantly higher than 50 712 yuan in the opportunistic screening group and 35 413 yuan in the control group. However, the average direct medical cost was significantly lower in the organized screening group than that in the opportunistic screening group and control group, with median costs of 11 024 yuan, 13 465 yuan and 14 243 yuan per case, respectively (P<0.001). The additional cost per case detected was 68 237 yuan for the organized screening and 15 299 yuan for opportunistic screening. The CERs were 135 291 yuan and 152 179 yuan per stage improved in the organized screening and opportunistic screening relative to the control group, with ICER of organized versus opportunistic screening being 131 086 yuan per stage improved.

CONCLUSIONSThe organized screening modality and the opportunistic one are both effective in early detecting breast cancer in Chinese women. The organized screening costs more than opportunistic screening, but with a better cost-effectiveness. It may be used as an option in economically developed areas of China.

With the continuous advancement of the deepening reform of the medical security system, the medical insurance payment method, as an important part of it, has become the focus of the reform. As one of the main types of innovative payment methods, payment for performance combines payment and medical service quality to improve the efficiency of medical and health services and patient satisfaction. In order to accelerate the clinical application of new medical technologies, improve patients′ access to innovative technologies, and reduce the disease economic burden of patients, Shanghai has carried out a pilot reform of paying for performance for three new technologies including Cryoablation in the treatment of cancer, Da Vinic Robotic Surgical System and Plasma MicroRNA Panel detection. Through multiple rounds of expert consultation and on-the-spot investigation, the positive detection rate, complication rate and tumor reduction rate were finally determined as the performance evaluation indicators of the three technologies, and the corresponding payment standards were defined. The pilot reform in Shanghai could provide reference for other regions to carry out performance based payment.

Albizzia julibrissin is empirically used as an antidepressant in clinical practice. Preclinical studies have indicated that its total extracts or bioactive constituents exerted antidepressant-like responses in animal models, providing the molecular basis to reveal its underlying mechanism of action. While attempts have been made to understand the antidepressant effect of A. julibrissin, many fundamental questions regarding its mechanism of action remain to be addressed at the molecular and systems levels. In this review, we conclusively discussed the mechanism of action of A. julibrissin and A. julibrissin formulae by reviewing recent preclinical and clinical studies conducted by using depressive animal models and depressive patients. Several representative bioactive constituents and formulae were highlighted as examples, and their mechanisms of action were discussed. In addition, some representative A. julibrissin formulae that have been shown to be compatible with conventional antidepressants in clinical practice were also reviewed. Furthermore, we discussed the future research directions to reveal the underlying mechanism of A. julibrissin at the molecular and systems levels in depression treatment. The integrated study using both the molecular and systematic approaches is required not only for improving our understanding of its molecular basis and mechanisms of action, but also for providing a way to discover novel agents or approaches for the effective and systematic treatment of depression.
