The cost accounting plays central role in enhancing financial management in the hospital. With the increasing hospital competition, conventional model of cost accounting is changing, and gradually replaced with a novel model of cost accounting-total cost accounting. With the wide spread of total cost accounting in all hospitals, it is found that the general operation of hospitals is limited by the original HIS information system. EPR system feathered with the advanced data administration and potent function of financial analysis holding promise in adoption and acceptance by hospitals, serving as information collector and analyzer following HIS system.

Objective To evaluate the complications and long-term efficacy of inside-out transobturator transvaginal tape ( TVT-O) for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence ( SUI) .Methods From January 2008 to December 2013,236 consecutive female patients (mean age 56 ±9 years,range 44-88 years)with the symptom of incontinence when abdominal pressure increasing (such as walking), underwent TVT-O operation.All these patients needed pads and were diagnosed with SUI by cough test and Marshall -bonny test before surgery , with the mean international consultation committee on incontinence questionnaire short form ( ICI-Q-SF) score of 15.6 ±3.9.Two grouping methods were used:the mid-term group including patients whose follow-up time was between 6 months and 3 years, the long-term group including patients whose follow-up time >3 years,the group of patients who underwent TVT-O only and the group of patients who underwent TVT-O plus pelvic floor repair at the same time . Their clinical and follow-up data , intraoperative and postoperative complications , subjective and objective effects were recorded and analyzed.Results Of these 236 patients,there were 1 case of bladder perforation (0.4%) and 1 case of intraoperative sling exposure to vagina ( 0.4%) .Postoperative complications included 36 ( 19.1%) groin/puncture point pain ,18 (9.5%) de novo frequency of micturition ,8 (4.2%) urinary retention /difficulty of urination.All the complications were relieved after symptomatic treatment or surgery except 2 cases of urinary retention/difficulty of urination.Their symptom kept existing after urethral dilatation and sling dissection and long-term intermittent self-catheterization was needed .One hundred and eighty-nine patients completed more than six months of follow-up, with mean follow-up time of ( 35.0 ±12.5 ) months.One hundred and sixteen (61.4%) cases was arranged to mid-term group and 73(38.6%) was arranged to long-term group.88.9%patients ( 168/189 ) were cured objectively and 9.5% patients ( 18/189 ) improved. There was also a significant subjective improvement ( ICI-Q-SF scores:15.6 ±3.9 preoperative versus 6.7 ± 2.3 postoperative,P<0.01).There was no significant difference of both objective and subjective efficacy between mid-term group and long-term group ( cured +improved rate 97.4% versus 95.9%;ICI-Q-SF scores 14.3 ±2.8 versus 16.7 ±3.4 preoperative ,5.8 ±1.2 versus 7.9 ±2.0 postoperative , P>0.05 ) . Patients who underwent TVT-O and those who underwent TVT-O +pelvic floor repair had no significant difference in efficacy (cured +improved rate 97.8%versus 100.0%,P>0.05).Conclusion TVT-O is a safe,effective and durable treatment for SUI , whether or not with concomitant procedure of pelvic floor repairment.

Objective To investigate the relationship between apolipoprotein E ( ApoE ) gene polymorphism and cerebral infarction patients with different gender and etiological typing. Methods A total of 91 patients with cerebral infarction aged≥60 years ( cerebral infarction group) were enrolled. They were divided into either a large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke group (n=37) or a small artery occlusion (SAO) stroke group (n=54) according to the Trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment (TOAST) classification. A total of 105 age-,sex-,and residence-matched healthy subjects were enrolled as controls. A Nested Allele-Specific Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Method was used to detect the ApoE gene polymorphism. The ApoE gene polymorphism of cerebral infarction of different gender and etiological typing were compared. Results ( 1 ) ApoE Genotypes of E2/2, E2/3, E2/4, E3/3, and E3/4 were detected,but the ApoE E4/4 was not detected. (2) There were no significant differences in the frequencies of ApoE genotypes and each gene carrier frequency between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (all P>0. 05). There was significant difference in ApoE genotype frequencies and each gene carrier frequency of the males between the cerebral infarction group and the control group (P<0. 01,P<0. 05). Both the E3/3 genotype frequency (56. 1%) and ε3 carrier frequency (78. 0%) of the cerebral infarction group were lower than the males of the control group ( 79. 2% and 89. 6% respectively );both the E3/4 genotype frequency (31. 7%) and ε4 carrier frequency (15. 9%) were higher than the control group (7. 5% and 3. 8%respectively). There was no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in female participants between the two groups (all P>0. 05). (3) There were no significant differences in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency among the LAA,SAO,and control groups. There was significant difference in the ApoE genotype frequency and gene carrier frequency in males between the LAA group and the control group (P>0. 01);the genotype frequencies of E2/3 and E3/E3 (6. 7% and 46. 7%),ε2,as well as theε3 carrier frequency (3. 3% and 73. 3%) of LAA were lower than those of the control group (13. 2%,79. 2%,6. 6%,and 89. 6%,respectively);the E3/4 genotype frequency andε4 carrier frequency of the LAA subtype were 46. 7% and 23. 3% respectively. They were all higher than 7. 5% and 3. 8% in the control group. However,there were no significant differences in males among the SAO group,the control group,and the 3 groups of females ( the LAA subtype,SAO subtypes,and the control group) (P>0. 05). Conclusion ε4 gene may be a risk factor for LAA in males. The association of ApoE gene polymorphism with cerebral infarction in females is not found.
