Coordinated care delivery is faced with various challenges to carry out in China,which are major decisions to make for decision makers,including how to push forward,how to deliver resources, services and patients to primary institutions,and how to ease the difficulties and affordability of seeing doctors.Based on analysis of roadblocks in coordinated care delivery in China,the authors provided near-term and long-term policy recommendations on the system,including how to build a scientific and reasonable healthcare delivery system,coordinated care delivery by stages,building incentives and constraint mechanisms,and enhancing public awareness and patient-doctor education.

Concept of coordinated care delivery is clearly defined,before a comparative analysis is made between such a concept and the integrated care delivery concept which is popular overseas and similar.On such basis,a theory framework is established for building and implementing such care delivery in line with the integrated theory of care delivery systems.Coordinated care delivery system now in place in China aims at rationally delivering medical resources,services and patients to primary institutions,by means of efficiently distributing resources and service systems and integrating care delivery flows,thus offering patients with cost effective and appropriate services and optimizing the care delivery system.

Analyzed in the paper is the present development of medical rehabilitation service system in Beijing,Changsha,and Urumqi,in an effort to identify key measures,and discover problems found with the policy environment and system building.Based on such findings,the authors proposed such measures as developing policies and regulations, optimizing resource allocation, strengthening training of rehabilitation personnel and greater publicity.

Authors described the patterns,core measures and mechanisms of coordinated care delivery in the localities and analyzed initial outcomes of this practice.It is found that such practice has optimized distribution of regional healthcare resources,implemented first visit to primary institutions, and the care delivery to separate emergency from outpatient service.In addition,the paper analyzed problems found in localities in terms of policy,public hospitals and primary institutions,and proposed elements required for coordinated care delivery system to succeed,such as enhanced policy support, enhanced multi-departmental coordination,and public hospital reform to explore feasible approaches.

This paper summarized practices and experiences of other countries in coordinated care delivery system building,and described the care delivery systems used in various healthcare fundraising patterns.It is found that most countries have defined duties and service coverage of healthcare institutions at all the levels and measures to ensure rational patient flow.In the end,the paper concluded found experiences of these countries and inspirations for China.

Objective To provide references for building the medical rehabilitation system in China by learning the progress and compliance of rehabilitation departments construction at tertiary hospitals. Methods Comparative and quantitative methods were used for dynamic analysis qualitative interview to learn the index compliance of the hospitals in question in 201 1-2012.Results Compared with 201 1, average days of stay of the rehabilitation departments declined in general,yet with insufficient therapists;introduction of early rehabilitation intervention was but 57.1%,and the functional assessment rate of rehabilitation service was less than satisfactory.Conclusion Lack of manpower,varying levels of medical rehabilitation services,and neglect for functional assessment were found to be the main problems in construction of medical rehabilitation departments for the time being.

Objective To evaluate the biochemical function of rat nature three-dimensional acellular pancreatic bioscaffold (3D-APB) in promoting cell proliferation and differentiation in vitro.Methods The fresh pancreas from 10 rats were perfused to prepare 3D-APB.The biocompatibility of 3D-APB was eva luated.The experiment was divided into 4 groups based on 4 kinds of three-dimensional media for AR42J culture,including blank control group,ECM group,PLGA group and 3D-APB group.We compared the proliferation and differentiation of AR42J pancreatic acinar cell at 3 days,5 days,7 days and 10 days after seeding among 4 groups.Results The 3D-APB could represent a biocompatible scaffold capable of integrating within host tissue.The proliferation rate of AR42J cells by MTT in 3D-APB was higher,while the apoptosis rate by flow cytometry was lower than those in other 3 media,which were all significantly different (P ＜ 0.05),respectively.The protein expression of PDX-1 and PTF-1 by western blot in 3D-APB group was greatly higher than those in other 3 groups (both P ＜ 0.05).The mRNA expression of PDX-1 and PTF-1 through qRT-PCR was significantly higher than those in other 3 groups (both P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with the commonly used chemical and natural scaffold at present,3D-APB could promote cell proliferation and differentiation,which was more appropriate for regenerative medicine.

Objective To observe the effects of therapy of wound-pus promoting granulation tissue growth guided by drug-wound interaction theory on the related factors in granulation tissue during the healing of chronic skin ulcer in rats based on drug-wound interaction. Methods Twenty-four rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, control group, and treatment group, 6 rats in each group. The rats in the normal group had no skin ulcer and was given normal feeding,and the rats with chronic skin ulcer in the other 3 groups were induced by compound factors-overlapped method of hormone intervention-skin defect-bacterial infection. After modeling,the model group was given external use of saline gauze dressing,the control group given external use of vaseline gauze dressing,and the treatment group given external use of Shengji Xiangpi Ointment,changing fresh dressing for wound daily,the treatment lasting for 14 days. Wound sample was taken from the left back of rats, and therapeutic effect was evaluated according to the changes in the wound surface of the rat right back. After intervention for 3,7,and 14 d,the secreta and granulation tissue in the wound surface of rats were observed, the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS), arginine-1 (Arg-1), and Notch1 in granulation tissue of rat ulcer wound were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The wound in the treatment group has been healed after treatment for 14 days (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 as compared with the diameter of the ulcer in the model group and the control group) . At the early stage of wound repairing (3 d),the expression levels of VEGF and Arg-1 in the treatment group were increased, and Notch1 expression level was decreased, the difference being statistically significant as compared with those of the model group and the control group (P < 0.05). At the late stage of wound repairing (14 d),the expression level of iNOS in the treatment group was increased,and the difference was statistically significant as compared with that of the model group(P < 0.05). Conclusion The therapy of wound-pus promoting granulation tissue growth guided by drug-wound interaction theory can promote the healing of chronic skin ulcerative wound in rats and improve the general condition of rats. The therapeutic mechanism may be associated with firstly inhibiting the expression of iNOS induced by M1 type macrophage at early stage and then promoting M2 type macrophage phenotype index Arg-1 expression,and regulating the expression of VEGF and Notch1 in the granulation tissue.

OBJECTIVEThe frequency of the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome is increasing worldwide. The cardiovascular anomalies are one of the most frequent clinical manifestations in this syndrome. This study was designed to determine the frequency of 22q11.2 deletions in a prospectively ascertained sample from children with isolated conotruncal defects in China.

METHODSTwenty-four children with isolated conotruncal defects were prospectively enrolled and screened for the presence of 22q11.2 deletions using fluoresence in situ hybridization. The 24 patients consisted of two cases of persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA), five cases of pulmonary atresia/ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD), thirteen cases of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), and four cases of double outlet right ventricle (DORV).

RESULTSOnly 1 of the 24 patients had 22 q11.2 deletions. The frequency of 22q11.2 deletions (4.2%) was lower than that reported by other authors.

CONCLUSIONSAlthough 22q11.2 deletion is common in syndromic conotruncal anomalies, it is rare in isolated conotruncal anomalies.
