Abstract: Objective To compare the application value of metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) with traditional culture in diagnosis of pulmonary infection pathogens. Methods　The clinical documents of 310 patients with suspected pulmonary infection admitted to the General Hospital of Center Theater Command from February 2021 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The results of mNGS and traditional culture were analyzed, followed by comparison on the positive rate, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy (ACC), positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) between the two methods. Results　 The study revealed that mNGS can simultaneously detect multiple pathogens, with the highest efficiency of detection for bacteria and the lowest for fungi. And the sequencing numbers of bacteria, fungi and viruses shown by mNGS were significantly different (H=70.361, P<0.001). In comparison, mNGS displayed a higher positive detection rate (88.40%) than traditional culture (29.70%) (χ2=162.373, P<0.001), but the consistency between the two methods was not significant (Kappa = -0.003, P=0.902). The sensitivity, specificity, ACC, PPV and NPV of mNGS were 91.29%, 28.26%, 81.94%, 87.96%, and 36.11% respectively, compared to corresponding 30.30%, 73.91%, 36.77%, 86.96% and 15.60% of traditional culture respectively. Through analysis, it is confirmed that the sensitivity and specificity between the two methods were statistically significant (91.29% vs 30.30%, χ2=148.120, P<0.001 and 28.26% vs 73.91, χ2=13.793, P<0.001). Conclusions　mNGS can significantly improve the detection rate of pathogens in pulmonary infections and provide a complementary tool besides to traditional culture method for accurate anti-infection therapy. Furthermore, both traditional culture and mNGS pathogen detection methods are highly dependent on sample quality and detection quality control. mNGS requires the correct interpretation of comprehensive, non-destructive pathogenic genetic information to accurately identify pathogens.

Objective: To analyze the suicide attitude and influencing factors of college students with mental disorders in Shaoxing City, and to provide a basis for improving the attitude of college students with mentaldisorders towards suicide. Methods: From January 2018 to December 2021, 1 100 college students, among which 110 were previously confirmed by medical institutions to have mental disorders, were selected from two schools in Shaoxing, including Shaoxing University and Yuexiu Foreign Languages College, to participate in a questionnaire survey. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to identify the main factors affecting the suicide attitude of college students with mental disorders. Results: Univariate analysis showed that the influence of different nature of college students with mental disorders on suicide attitude was related to age, gender, origin, suicide ideation, whether suicidal thoughts can be controlled, impulsive personality type, problem solving style, the differences were statistically significant ( χ 2/t=9.01, 15.05, 5.90, 5.86, 6.47, 4.92, 13.48, P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age, gender, origin, suicidal ideation, uncontrolled suicidal thoughts, impulsive personality type, problem solving style were the main factors influencing the suicidal attitude of college students with mental disorders ( OR=3.13, 3.06, 2.89, 3.22, 3.25, 3.13 , 3.16, P <0.05). Conclusion problem solving and other factors. The selection of targeted treatment plan can improve the mental disorder condition of college students and promote the recovery of the disease.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to summarize the historical experience of health financing in typical developed countries, in order to provide reference for China's health financing over the next 15 years.Methods: This paper uses hierarchical cluster analysis to determine the historical stage of typical developed countries similar to China in economic and social development from 2015 to 2030.Literature review is used to analyze the historical data and reform measures of health financing in typical developed countries during the similar stage.Results: The study found that the historical stage of typical developed countries that is similar to China in 2015-2030 is between the mid-or late-1970s and the beginning of the 21st century.During this period, the experience of health financing in typical developed countries mainly focused on controlling expenditures and costs, improving the health financing policy, strengthening the security system, etc.Conclusions: The similar stage research approach introduced in this paper provides a new idea and perspective to use the international experience for reference.Drawing lessons from the experience of health financing in typical developed countries combined with the Chinese context, this paper suggests the government should develop and improve diversified health financing channels, integrate and improve the health security system, and control the rapid escalation of health expenditure.

Objective:Based on the perspective of Universal Health Coverage(UHC),a mathematical model was developed to conduct quantitative study on the development status of Basic Medical Insurance Schemes(BMIS) in China.Methods:A mixed model was developed to conduct quantitative study on the development of BMIS in the period of 2003-2015 from five dimensions:coverage of population,benefit package,reimbursement rate,risk pooling level and unity of the schemes.Sensitivity analysis was also performed.Results:The UHC scores for BMIS in China from 2003 to 2015 fluctuated obviously.Given the range of 0-100 percent,the UHC score in 2003 was 52.2％,28.5％ in 2006,23.9％ in 2010 and 26.5％ in 2015.The integration and equalization of BMIS and scaling up the risk pooling levels were shown to contribute significantly to UHC.Conclusion:The construction of mixed models was developed to provide a new calculation assessment tool for measuring the UHC,which consisted of completed evaluation tool package with addition model and multiplication model.Considering the future development of UHC,there is a still long way to go for BMIS in China.Emphases should be given to integration and equalization of BMIS as well as scaling up the risk polling to provincial and national level.
