Objective:To analyze the effect of birth parity on life expectancy (LE) and healthy life expectancy (HLE) among rural women.Method:A total of 15 304 women aged 40 to 79 years who participated in baseline and follow-up surveys were selected from a rural cohort in Henan province. The LE and HLE of women with different birth parity were calculated by using multi-state life table.Results:There were 1 195 (7.8%), 7 782 (50.8%), 3 867 (25.3%) and 2 460 (16.1%) women with 1, 2, 3 and 4 birth parities, respectively, and the M ( Q1 and Q3) of age were 50.3 (47.3, 53.4) and 53.3 (48.8, 60.7), 62.6 (55.4, 66.9) and 69.5 (64.7, 73.4) years old, respectively. LE at 40 years old was 44.5, 44.8, 45.1 and 45.4 years old, and HLE was 17.7, 18.3, 18.8 and 19.3 years old, respectively. LE at age 40 increased by 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 years in women with 2, 3, and 4 birth parities or more and HLE increased by 0.5, 1.1, and 1.6 years, respectively, compared with women with 1 birth parity. For women with higher and lower socioeconomic status who had 4 birth parities or more, the LE at age 40 was 47.1 and 43.9 years, respectively, an increase of 0.2 and 0.1 years over women with 1 birth parity, respectively; and the HLE was 20.4 and 18.7 years, respectively, an increase of 1.4 and 1.3 years over women with 1 birth parity, respectively. Conclusion:LE and HLE show an upward trend with the increase of birth parity among rural women.

Objective It aims to construct a quality evaluation index system for cancer multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment(MDT)model in China from a full process perspective,providing guidance for practical application and model optimization.Methods Based on the number of MDT publications and practical situations,20 provincial-level hospitals nationwide were selected as typical cases.Rooted theory was used to extract evaluation indicators from the original text of the cases through three-level coding.A cancer MDT quality evaluation index system was constructed under the Input-Process-Output framework.Results Through three-level coding,27 initial categories,8 subcategories,and 3 main categories were sorted out,and a cancer MDT quality evaluation index system was constructed with input,process,and output as the primary evaluation indicators,and top-level design,management system,object resources,meeting preparation,meeting progress,plan implementation,patient outcomes,and hospital outcomes as the secondary evaluation indicators.Conclusion The quality evaluation index system of cancer MDT mode based on the perspective of the entire process can effectively guide practical optimization,but there is still a need for the improvement of supporting policies and information systems to assist in quality evaluation.

Objective To measure the transaction costs of compact urban medical groups and analyze the evaluation of transaction costs by various stakeholders.Methods Using the typical sampling method,it took the Compact Urban Medical Group of J District General Hospital in Zhengzhou City,Henan Province as an example.A questionnaire sur-vey was conducted on the construction party(health administration department,leading hospital and member units)and related staff from January 19 to 24,2024.The contents of the survey included institutional statements,basic information of the respondents,relevant fees or costs of each participant,and the evaluation of transaction costs by the staff of each institutional participant.Results In 2023,the total transaction cost of District J Medical Group in Zhengzhou City was 75 811 014.49 yuan;the majority of transaction costs were borne by the leading hospi-tal(98.1％);all stakeholders confirmed the existence of transaction costs in the medical group,but there were dif-ferences in the perception of the manifestations and distribution of transaction costs(P＜0.05).Conclusion The transaction costs of compact urban medical group are high,most of which are borne by the leading hospital;The stakeholders have not yet clearly understood the form and distribution of transaction costs.The measures to deal with transaction costs include"facing up to the widespread existence of transaction costs","improving the compensation incentive mechanism"and"establishing a saving system supply path".

Objective To measure the transaction costs of the health management alliance with the clue of the re-ferral treatment of patients with hypertension and diabetes.Methods Based on the Williamson-Zhang Wuchang analy-sis paradigm,a transaction cost measurement matrix of health management alliance was established.Through the typical sampling method,the health management alliance of County N in Shandong Province was selected as a re-search example to carry out empirical research.Results In 2023,the total transaction costs of the sampled health management alliance reached to 6 726 700.00 yuan,and the average transaction cost per referral patient was 3 846 yuan.The leading hospital accounted for 79.45％of the transaction cost,followed by the CDC.Meanwhile,busi-ness coordination cost accounted for 47.18％of the total transaction cost,and the average transaction cost per refer patient with hypertension or diabetes was 700.90 yuan.Conclusion The total transaction costs of the health manage-ment alliance was large,and it was mainly borne by the leading hospital.Patients also need to bear considerable transaction costs.The countermeasures included improving the service integration mechanism,establishing economi-cal system supply path,and coordinating actions between social health insurance system and health care system.

Since the new medical reform,the scale of public hospitals at all levels and types in China has grown rapidly,resulting in a series of problems such as continued increase in financial burden,excessive growth in health expenses,and serious imbalance in the distribution of social basic medical insurance funds.Due to the ambiguous understanding of the connotation of the scale of China's public hospitals and the underlying driving forces of growth,and the traditional economic explanation of the growth of public hospital scale in China is not convincing.In view of this,revealing the essential driving framework for the scale growth of public hospitals in China from a new economic perspective has become a key theoretical issue to guide the next stage of high-quality development of public hospitals in China.It used the complex system modeling method to measure the growth of China's public hos-pitals since the new medical reform,and summarized the increasingly complex institutional spectrum of contempo-rary public hospitals.Drawing on the perspectives of the system's own costs and system change costs in new insti-tutional economics,starting from the analysis of system costs,it is proposed that under the premise of price regula-tion,it is the best strategy for public hospitals to compensate for institutional costs through scale growth.Finally,based on the three situations of prisoner's dilemma game,deer hunting game,and rule-abiding game experienced by public hospitals since the new health reform,the development path of public hospitals from single scale growth to extended scale growth,and then to collaborative scale growth was summarized.

Osteosarcoma,which primarily affects children and adolescents,is a highly malignant bone tumor with high rates of disability and mortality.Therefore,the exploration of biological markers related to its occurrence,development,and prognosis is crucial.Genome-wide association studies have revealed the vital role of genetic polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma.This study aims to provide new insights into reliable biomarkers of osteosarcoma through the analysis of the functional single-nucleotide polymor-phisms of tumor-related genes.
