1.A study of the points for attack on the problem of hospital control of medical cost and the intensity of the attack
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 1996;0(03):-
A summary is made on a11 the experiences from five attached general hospitals which carried out Shanghai new policy of Work rescheduling and organization restracturing.The external pressure and internal motive of the change from"compulsory rescheduling"to"voluntary rescheduling" are analyzed.A search for the distribution of the points for attack on the problem of hospital control of medical cost is made.A comparative study is conducted on the relationship between time and the inten- sity of the control,the inner relationship between the independent variables and the intensity of control. The conclusion shows the change of the hospital's control role to the voluntary one has something to do with the equalibrium of relative forces.The point for breakthrough lies at the control of drugs.A search for the points for attack on the problem of hospital control of medical cost is not only necessary for arresting the rocketing of medical cost,but also helpful for capturing the confidence of the concerned and strengthening hospital management,thus laying a good foundation for a stable transition to a new healthcare insurance program.

A typical investigation on third-tier general hospitals, third-tier specialty hospitals, second-tier district or county central hospitals, urban community hospitals, and rural township health centers in Shanghai was conducted so as to examine the responsiveness of outpatients and inpatients to the health system. Most of the patients surveyed said that they could get prompt attention and that they had convenient access to medical information from the community or the mass media. More than half of the inpatients and outpatients thought that they had autonomy with regard to treatment and a greater number of patients made their own choices of doctors and nurses. Most of the patients were willing to talk freely with their doctors about their confidential medical history and could get rational explanations about their conditions from the doctors. The results indicate that reform of the health system in Shanghai has attached importance to the responsiveness of patients and that good effects have been achieved.

Methods:
Papers on the research of HUA prevention and treatment with medicine-food homology from December 15, 2002 to August 10, 2024 were screened and collected through China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Subsequently, the impact of these medications and their extracts, as well as the active compounds on HUA were assessed.
Results:
A total of 148 relevant papers were collected, including 43 kinds of Chinese medicines and 61 active compounds, all of which have anti-HUA activity. Among them, 41 kinds of Chinese medicines could inhibit the activity of xanthine oxidase, thus leading to the inhibition of uric acid production; and 22 kinds of Chinese medicines could facilitate uric acid excretion, while 15 kinds of Chinese medicines could reduce the inflammation levels in the body and promoting renal protection. Notably, polyphenols and flavonoids are the key active components for the uric acid-lowering effects.
Conclusion
This study systematically summarized and analyzed the uric acid-lowering effects and mechanisms of Chinese medicines with medicine-food homology, laying a foundation for their development as HUA agents.
