Objective:To investigate the use of antibacterial agents for emergency patients with acute upper respiratory infections in tertiary hospitals in Beijing .Methods:We used the medical claim data for urban workers in 10 tertiary hospitals in Beijing from Oct .2010 to Sep.2012.Medical records of emer-gency patients with acute upper respiratory tract infections had been selected as the study sample .The proportions of antibacterial prescriptions and categories of antibacterial drugs were described and ana -lyzed.Results:This study included 135 979 visitors (male:42.7%;mean age:43.6 ±16.2 years).The average antibacterial prescription rate was 71.2% (95%CI 71.0%-71.5%), of which the single kind use was 80.0%(95%CI 79.7%-80.2%).Among acute upper respiratory tract infections , the antibacte-rial prescription rate for acute tonsillitis visits was highest (85.1%, 95%CI 84.5%-85.6%), followed by acute laryngitis and bronchitis (81.69%, 95%CI 80.4%-82.8%), acute pharyngitis (81.4%, 95%CI 77.7% -85.0%), acute sinusitis (77.0%, 95%CI 74.6% -79.4%), acute nasopharyngitis (74.3%, 95%CI 73.7%-75.0%), and common cold (67.6%, 95%CI 67.3%-67.9%).Compared with the female group, the antibacterial prescription rate for the male was higher (73.2%, 95%CI 72.8%-73.6%vs.69.7%, 95%CI 69.4%-70.0%).Compared with the <60 years age cases, the anti-bacterial prescription rate for the ≥60 years cases was higher (72.1%, 95%CI 71.8%-72.3% vs. 66 .8%, 95%CI 66 .2%-67 .5%) .In the visitors who used antibacterial drugs , the average percentage of injection use was 50.6%(95%CI 50.3%-50.9%).The top antibacterial drugs in the list of varie-ties were the second generation cephalosporins (28.4%) , followed by the third generation cephalosporins (21.7%), fluoroquinolones (21.0%) and macrolides (17.6%).Conclusion: The antibacterial pre-scription rate for acute upper respiratory tract infections in the general hospitals in Beijing is high , and the second generation cephalosporins , third generation cephalosporins , fluoroquinolones and macrolides take the lead in the total antibacterial drugs .

Objective To evaluate the policy of human organ transplantation in China, aiming to provide theoretical basis for further optimizing the policy of human organ transplantation. Methods Based on text mining and statistical analysis, seven normative policies of human organ transplantation formulated by national government from 2000 to 2022 were quantitatively evaluated by constructing policy modeling consistency (PMC) with 10 first-level variables and 35 second-level variables. Results Among the seven policies, six were graded as excellent policies and one as perfect policy, with an average PMC index of 8.476. Except X₈ policy audience, the scores of other second-level variables of P5 were higher than or equal to the mean. The scores of all second-level variables of P1 were lower than or equal to the mean. P1 and P5 significantly differed in X₃ policy timeliness, X₄ policy norms and X₆ policy tools. P5 was more specific and relatively comprehensive in these aspects, and its score was significantly higher than that of P1. Conclusions Human organ transplantation policies in China are generally excellent, scientific and rational. Health administrative departments at all levels should pay attention to the grasp of policy timeliness, the combination of policy tools, and fully mobilize the initiative and enthusiasm of all policy audience to participate in organ transplantation management when formulating organ transplantation policies.

Objective: To explore how to select osteotomy line and its significance in mandibular distraction osteogenesis in infants and young children. Methods: From May 2013 to July 2018, 208 infants and young children with mandibular deformity were admitted to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Guangzhou Women and Children Medical Center, including 131 males and 77 females, with the age range of 8 days to 4 years, mean age of 6 months. Their clinical records were retrospectively analyzed. There were 162 cases of Robin sequence, 37 cases of the first and branchial arch anomalies, 2 cases of Treacher-Collins syndrome, and 7 cases of other congenital malformations. During the distraction osteogenesis, different osteotomy lines were selected according to the characteristics of the mandibular deformity: (1) For short mandibular body, the straight osteotomy line was used to extend the mandibular body. (2) For short mandibular ramus, a polygonal osteotomy line was used to extend the ramus. (3) For the increased mandibular angle, a curved osteotomy line was used to change the angulation. Results: Linear osteotomy was used in 38 patients, polygonal line osteotomy were used in 129 patients, and curved osteotomy was performed in 41 patients. Among them, 4 patients with linear osteotomy had deciduous embryo injury, 6 patients with linear osteotomy and 2 patients with polygonal osteotomy had open occlusion, and patients with curved osteotomy did not have tooth and mandible damage, or malocclusion. All patients were followed up for 3 months to 5 years. The average follow-up time was 6.2 months. All osteotomy healed well, without osteonecrosis or nonunion. Conclusions For the mandibular distraction osteogenesis, osteotomy line could be individualized, according to the characteristics of mandibular deformity of infants and young children, which can reduce complications such as dental damage and open occlusion.

Purpose To evaluate the quality assessed by iconographic diagnostic test system using ROBIS. Materials and Methods"Diagnostic tests, system evaluation, Meta analysis, diagnoses*test, diagnoses*trial, systematic review, meta-analysis" were used as search term to retrieve relevant literatures recorded in CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library from January. 1, 2014 to December. 31, 2016. After two independent researchers screened the literature and extracted the information, the quality of included literatures was evaluated using ROBIS. Results Totally 219 articles were included in the study, including 93 Chinese literatures and 126 English literatures. The results of subgroup analysis showed that the quality difference between Chinese and English documents was statistically significant (P=0.018); the quality difference between the Chinese literatures and those of other regions was statistically significant (P<0.001); there was no statistical significance in quality difference regarding the year of publication (P=0.34). The ROBIS evaluation results showed that there were only 15 literatures (6.85%) with low-risk, including 2 Chinese literatures and 13 English literatures. Conclusion The quality evaluated by Chinese and English diagnostic test system, which is publicly published in iconographic diagnostic test from 2014 to 2016, is generally low, and the quality of literatures published by domestic scholars and in Chinese is still behind international levels. The maker of system evaluation in this field should prepare their research plans in advance and fully report them in future research, adequately obtain evidence, minimize bias in respects of document screening, information extraction, and evaluation of original research bias, and take into account of results stability, based on which the quality of system evaluation in this field should be further improved.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in 259 professional automobile drivers,and to put forward targeted suggestions on protection.Methods In October 2014,114 male bus drivers and 145 male taxi drivers in a transportation service company were enrolled as investigation group,and 121 non-operating male staff were enrolled as control group.Physical examination and a questionnaire survey were conducted for both groups,and the results were analyzed.Results The bus drivers and taxi drivers had significantly higher prevalence rates of MS than the non-operating staff (17.5％/13.1％ vs 3.3％,P＜0.05).The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that smoking (OR=2.58,95％CI 1.14～5.88),exercise (OR=0.21,95％CI 0.10～0.43),meal time (OR=0.27,95％CI 0.13～0.59),and a family history of chronic diseases (OR =2.26,95％ CI 1.13～4.50) were associated with MS,and each independent variable showed significant differences between groups (P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that with age remaining the same,smoking was the risk factor for MS in professional automobile drivers (OR=5.25,95％CI 2.00～13.80),and meal time(20～40 min)(OR=0.20,95％CI 0.09～0.44)and exercise (OR=0.13,95％CI 0.06～0.30)were protective factors against MS.Conclusion Professional automobile drivers have a higher prevalence rate of MS than non-operating staff,which should be taken seriously by working personnel.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between gestational weight gain (GWG) in twin pregnancies and adverse perinatal outcomes.Methods:This retrospective study included twin pregnant women with live births at≥25 weeks of gestation and their offspring, who delivered at Peking University People's Hospital from January 2012 to October 2022. Total GWG was standardized according to gestational age and categorized into three groups based on the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) guidelines: insufficient GWG (GWG below IOM recommendations), appropriate GWG (GWG within IOM recommendations), and excessive GWG (GWG above IOM recommendations). Comparisons between data of the three groups used analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis test or Bonferroni correction or Chi-square partitions. Multivariable logistic regression models and generalized estimating equations with logistic regression models were used to analyze the independent effects of GWG on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Results:A total of 794 twin pregnant women and their 1 588 live-born neonates were included in the study. There were 360 women (45.3%) with appropriate GWG, 356 (44.8%) with insufficient GWG, and 78 (9.8%) with excessive GWG. Both insufficient and excessive GWG were associated with an increased risk of preterm birth [adjusted ORs of 1.39 (95% CI: 1.04-1.88) and 1.70 (95% CI: 1.05-2.78), respectively]. Insufficient GWG was associated with an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (adjusted OR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.00-2.01) and low birth weight infants (adjusted OR=2.04, 95% CI: 1.57-2.66). Insufficient GWG was also associated with a reduced risk of eclampsia or preeclampsia (adjusted OR=0.50, 95% CI: 0.33-0.75), cesarean section (adjusted OR=0.48, 95% CI: 0.30-0.77), discordant twin growth (adjusted OR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.37-0.85), and large for gestational age infants (adjusted OR=0.46, 95% CI: 0.35-0.61). Excessive GWG was associated with an increased risk of eclampsia or preeclampsia (adjusted OR=2.85, 95% CI: 1.65-4.91), and large for gestational age infants (adjusted OR=2.49, 95% CI: 1.60-3.86), while with a decreased risk of low birth weight infants (adjusted OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.27-0.65). Conclusions:More than half of the twin pregnancies have GWG outside the recommended range of the IOM guidelines. Both insufficient and excessive GWG are associated with adverse perinatal outcomes, particularly an increased risk of preterm birth.
