ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

Objective To observe the efficacy of self-made auxiliary reduction device combined with sinus tarsi approach(STA)in the treatment of Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures.Methods A total of 40 patients with Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures admitted to our hospital from January to June 2023 were selected and divided into the control group and the observation group by the random number table method,with 20 cases in each group.Patients in the control group underwent surgical treatment with the heel extensile lateral approach(ELA),while patients in the observation group underwent surgical treatment with the auxiliary reduction device combined with STA.The surgical-related indicators,postoperative complications and ankle-foot anatomical indicators of patients in the two groups were compared.The recovery of limb function was evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot scale and Maryland foot function score.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time,postoperative incision drying time,or duration of postoperative pain between the two groups(P>0.05).The postoperative suture removal time of the patients in the observation group was shorter than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of skin edge necrosis of incision and the total incidence of complications of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The B?hler angle and Gissane angle of patients in both groups increased after surgery compared with those before surgery(P<0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the B?hler angle or Gissane angle after surgery of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The AOFAS score1 week after surgery of the patients in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in the AOFAS scores or Maryland scores of patients at other time points between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The use of the auxiliary reduction device in surgical treatment with STA for Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures can effectively restore the function of the foot and ankle,with short postoperative suture removal time and low incidence of postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the incidence and types of patient-ventilator asynchrony(PVA)in mechanically ventilated patients within the intensive care unit(ICU),and to identify associated high-risk factors,thereby providing a basis for reducing PVA,enhancing mechanical ventilation efficiency,and refining ventilation strategies.Methods A prospective observational study was conducted among patients admitted to the general ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from October to December 2024 who were receiving mechanical ventilation.Inclusion criteria were as follows:age ≥18 years and mechanical ventilation duration ≥12 hours.Exclusion criteria included complete controlled mechanical ventilation,palliative care or do-not-resuscitate status,and lack of informed consent.Senior respiratory therapists performed daily bedside observations of ventilator waveforms for 10～15 minutes between 08:00 and 12:00.PVA was diagnosed based on pressure-time and flow-time waveforms,with the types of PVA being recorded.Demographic and clinical data,including age,sex,body mass index(BMI),primary diagnosis,comorbidities,APACHEⅡ score at ICU admission,blood gas analysis,ventila-tion mode and parameters,analgesia and sedation status,duration of mechanical ventilation,and length of ICU stay,were collected.The incidence and types of PVA during the observation period were analyzed.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify high-risk factors for PVA.Clinical outcomes were compared between patients with and without PVA.Results A total of 105 patients and 453 episodes of assisted mechanical ventilation waveforms were analyzed.Among these,60.95％(64/105)experienced at least one episode of PVA.Of the 453 ventilation waveforms assessed,35.76％(162/453)demonstrated PVA.The types of PVA,ranked by incidence,were as follows:cycling mismatch(12.58％,57/453),double triggering(11.92％,54/453),ineffective triggering(9.49％,43/453),flow starvation(5.30％,24/453),and exhalation flow limitation(1.77％,8/453).The incidence of PVA varied significantly across different ventilation modes:45.7％in volume-assist/control ventilation(V-A/C),38.1％in pressure-assist/control ventilation(P-A/C),42.9％in synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation(SIMV),and 16.7％in pressure support ventilation(PSV)(P<0.001).Multi-variate logistic regression analysis revealed that the mechanical ventilation mode[reference:PSV;V-A/C:OR=4.687,95％CI:2.140～10.263,P<0.001;P-A/C:OR=2.922,95％CI:1.489～5.734,P=0.002;SIMV:OR=4.682,95％CI:1.758～12.466,P=0.002]and actual respiratory rate(OR=1.07,95％CI:1.016～1.127,P=0.011)were significant high-risk factors for PVA.Patients with PVA had a significantly longer duration of mechanical ventilation[8.21(5.35,13.91)days vs.3.00(1.96,5.71)days,P<0.001]compared to those without PVA.Conclusions PVA is commonly observed in ICU patients receiving assisted invasive mechanical ventilation,with cycling mismatch,double triggering,and ineffective triggering being the most prevalent types.The incidence of PVA tends to be lower when using the PSV mode.Clinically,real-time monitoring of patient-ventilator synchrony via ventilator waveforms,along with the optimization of ventilator modes and parameters,should be employed to minimize the occurrence of PVA and enhance the efficiency of mechanical ventilation.

Chronic disease management is an important element in the strategy of"Healthy China",and the role of pharmacies in chronic disease prevention and treatment has been increasingly recognized.However,there are still differences in the understanding of the function of pharmacies in the chronic disease management system among various circles in China,and it is imperative to enhance the synergistic governance of multiple subjects such as the government,healthcare institutions and pharmacies in the management of chronic diseases.It is found that the theory and practice of chronic disease management system have made great progress in the international arena,and the representative theories include CCM,ICCC and other theoretical models,and the representative practices include community pharmacy management model,pharmacy service expansion model,and pharmacy health management model.The participation of pharmacies in chronic disease management in China has been continuously improved in terms of policy implementation and structural design,and the exploration of local models has been continuously innovated,but it still faces the challenges of insufficient synergy of the main body,insufficient safeguard of the object,insufficiently sound system,and insufficiently perfect mechanism.On the basis of the proposed"synergy-cooperation"chronic disease co-management system framework,we further propose an optimization path for the functional governance of pharmacies in the chronic disease management system,including the strengthening of the main body,the protection of the rights and interests of the object,the improvement of the management system,and the improvement of the supervision mechanism.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of conventional ultrasound combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for detecting cervical lymph node metastasis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).Methods:This retrospective case control study included 259 patients (249 males and 10 females,aged 40-88 years with a median age of 63 years) who were pathologically diagnosed with HNSCC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from April 2022 to August 2024. A total of 259 lymph nodes were assessed(78 pathologically positive nodes and 181 pathologically negative ones). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to compare the diagnostic efficacies of conventional ultrasound combined with CEUS and CT, MRI, or conventional ultrasound for cervical lymph node metastasis. Patients were randomly assigned to a training group ( n=208) and a validation group ( n=51) (8∶2). Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis prediction. A nomogram model was constructed based on independent risk factors. The model predictive efficacy was assessed by ROC curve, and model′s fit was evaluated by Hosmer-Lemeshow test. Results:The area under the curve (AUC) for conventional ultrasound combined with CEUS in predicting cervical lymph node metastasis in HNSCC was 0.923 (95% CI: 0.880-0.965), which was significantly higher than those for enhanced CT, cervical enhanced MRI, and conventional ultrasound [AUC were 0.820 (95% CI: 0.753-0.886), 0.802 (95% CI: 0.737-0.866), and0.836 (95% CI: 0.774-0.899), respectively].There were no statistically significant differences in clinical data between the two groups (all P>0.05). Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, among contrast-enhanced ultrasound features, the centripetal perfusion pattern, irregular perfusion defect type, and uneven distribution of contrast agent were significantly associated with cervical lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). Among conventional ultrasound features, L/S ratio≤1.5, heterogeneous internal echoes, uneven cortex thickening, blurred corticomedullary boundary, loss of lymphatic gate structure, and peripheral or mixed type on color Doppler flow imaging were significantly associated with cervical lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that the centripetal perfusion pattern, heterogeneous internal echoes, and uneven cortical thickening were independent risk factors for cervical lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on the above independent risk factors, and offered an AUC of 0.933 (95% CI:0.890-0.976) in the training group, which was significantly higher than that for enhanced CT, enhanced MRI, conventional ultrasound, and conventional ultrasound combined with CEUS [AUC were 0.818 (95% CI:0.747-0.890), 0.807 (95% CI:0.739-0.875), 0.842 (95% CI: 0.777-0.908), and 0.921 (95% CI:0.876-0.967), respectively]. In the validation group, the AUC was 0.866 (95% CI:0.703-1.000), which was higher than that for cervical enhanced CT, enhanced MRI, and conventional ultrasound [AUC were 0.820 (95% CI:0.613-1.000), 0.711 (95% CI:0.478-0.943), and 0.748 (95% CI:0.515-0.982), respectively]. Conclusion:The combination of conventional ultrasound and CEUS has significant clinical application value in predicting cervical lymph node metastasis in HNSCC.

Objective:To investigate the gut microbiota and metabolic profiles of patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD), and to identify potential microbial biomarkers with diagnostic values.Methods:A total of 16 NMOSD patients, 6 MOGAD patients, and 22 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were recruited from Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology since June 2024. Fecal samples were subjected to metagenomic sequencing and untargeted metabolomics. Differential microbes were identified using LEfSe (linear discriminant analysis effect size), and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to evaluate diagnostic potential. Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess relationships between key microbes, metabolites, and serum antibody titers.Results:Distinct alterations in gut microbiota were observed in both disease groups compared with healthy controls. Ligilactobacillus salivarius was significantly enriched in both NMOSD and MOGAD patients and exhibited robust diagnostic accuracy (area under the curve=0.779 P=0.005). Metabolomics revealed that levels of ethosuximide and lysine-proline were elevated, while free fatty acids (15∶1) and 5, 6-dihydrothymine were reduced in the disease groups. Analysis results indicated that Ligilactobacillus salivarius abundance was positively correlated with aquaporin 4 antibody titers in NMOSD patients ( r=0.522, P=0.046). Conclusions:Patients with NMOSD and MOGAD have characteristic alterations in gut microbial and metabolic profiles.
