Objective:To summarize the clinical, pathological and molecular characteristics of various types of pediatric glioma, and to explore the differences in the morphology and clinical significance among various types of pediatric glioma.Methods:Based on the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of central nervous system tumors, this study classified or reclassified 111 pediatric gliomas that were diagnosed at Guangzhou Medical University Affiliated Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2020 to June 2023. The clinical manifestations, imaging findings, histopathology, and molecular characteristics of these tumors were analyzed. Relevant literature was also reviewed.Results:The 111 patients with pediatric glioma included 56 males and 55 females, with the age ranging from 10 days to 13 years (average age, 5.5 years). Clinically, manifestations presented from 5 days to 8 years before the diagnosis, including epilepsy in 16 cases, increased intracranial pressure in 48 cases and neurological impairment in 66 cases. MRI examinations revealed tumor locations as supratentorial in 43 cases, infratentorial in 65 cases, and spinal cord in 3 cases. There were 73 cases presented with a solid mass and 38 cases with cystic-solid lesions. The largest tumor diameter ranged from 1.4 to 10.6 cm. Among the 111 pediatric gliomas, there were 6 cases of pediatric diffuse low-grade glioma (pDLGG), 63 cases of circumscribed astrocytoma glioma (CAG), and 42 cases of pediatric diffuse high-grade glioma (pDHGG). Patients with pDLGG and CAG were younger than those with pDHGG. The incidence of pDLGG and CAG was significantly lower in the midline of the infratentorial region compared to that of pDHGG. They were more likely to be completely resected surgically. The pDLGG and CAG group included 4 cases of pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma, showing histological features of high-grade gliomas. Among the high-grade gliomas, 13 cases were diffuse midline gliomas and also showed histological features of low-grade glioma. Immunohistochemical studies of H3K27M, H3K27ME3, p53, ATRX, BRAF V600E, and Ki-67 showed significant differences between the pDLGG and CAG group versus the pDHGG group ( P<0.01). Molecular testing revealed that common molecular variations in the pDLGG and CAG group were KIAA1549-BRAF fusion and BRAF V600E mutation, while the pDHGG group frequently exhibited mutations in HIST1H3B and H3F3A genes, 1q amplification, and TP53 gene mutations. With integrated molecular testing, 2 pathological diagnoses were revised, and the pathological subtypes of 35.3% (12/34) of the pediatric gliomas that could not be reliably classified by histology were successfully classified. Conclusions:There are significant differences in clinical manifestations, pathological characteristics, molecular variations, and prognosis between the pDLGG, CAG and pDHGG groups. The integrated diagnosis combining histology and molecular features is of great importance for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of pediatric gliomas.

Objective:
To explore the formation mechanism of the weakening of village clinic′s medical service capacity in the context of new medical reform.
Methods:
Purposive sampling method was used to enroll 38 rural doctors and managers of rural health centers and health offices in the interview from October 2015 to November 2015. And grounded theory was adopted to analyze reasons and their mechanism of the weakening of village clinic′ s medical service capacity.
Results:
29 first-grade categories and 7 second-grade categories were worked out in text encoding. With the implementation of the ongoing healthcare reform, support from financial, policy and technology increased significantly, but due to the synthetic action of unexpected negative effects of the reform, superposition and accumulation of disturbance and ineffective support, village clinic′ s medical service capacity began to weaken.
Conclusions
The weakened village clinic′ s medical service capacity is a result of the synthetic action of 3 reasons. The persistence of this status will intensify the vulnerability of rural health service system and be bad for the implementation of hierarchical medical policy and the strategy of rural vitalization. Measures should be taken to optimization the essential medicine system, establish a comprehensive assessment mechanism for basic medical service and basic public health service of village clinic, strength the strategic purchasing of medical insurance, improve the financial compensation mechanism, and complete training system of village doctors, aims to promoting sustainable development of village clinic.

Objective:
To explore the method of replanting severed piercing finger micro tissue blocks.
Methods:
From February, 2001 to October, 2016, 16 cases of severed piercing finger micro tissue blocks were replanted with debridement. The trunk or branch of proper palmar digital artery was anastomosed. Vascular collocations were used such as venous arterialization when there was no anastomotic artery available. Regular postoperative followed-up was performed to observe the recovery of tissue survival, appearance, sensation of flap, and joint function.
Results:
One case had partial epidermal necrosis, and healed after change of dressing. The finger-disconnected micro tissue blocks of other 15 cases survived well. After 6 months to 2 years of follow-up, the replanted micro tissue blocks were ruddy in color and recovered from S3 to S4. The appearance of the 16 fingers was good, and the function of joints was restored.
Conclusion
The finger-disconnected micro tissue blocks should be actively replanted. With skilled microsurgical techniques, the anastomosis of the arterial or venous artery will ensure the success of replantation and survived, as well as to restore good function and appearance.

The policy model of G. C. Edwards was used to study the policies on building a countywide medical community ( CMC), and identify problems in such aspects as policy communication, resources, disposition and bureaucratic structure. The analysis found that enriching health resources at primary level and powerful government support are creating ideal environment for the construction of CMC. But due to its preliminary development, rooms of improvement of its policy design, and unclear enforcement standards, there appear behavioral polarizations at local health authorities. For example, some are proactive to explore and accumulate rich experiences, while the most take a wait and see stand, or even take administrative means to cope with their authorities by forming medical communities in form only. A small part of county hospitals, thanks to support from the government and inherent conditions, take active measures in this direction as policy frontrunners. On the other hand, most county hospitals prefer to be policy followers in order to avoid cost and risks of the reform. In the worst cases, a few county hospitals have become free riders of the policy, and attempt to take advantages of their primary health institutions. Primary health institutions warmly embrace CMC, but their limited service capability constitutes roadblocks in CMC construction. What is more, poor communication and collaboration mechanisms among systems and authorities hinder the effective policy synergy and health service integration of CMS.
