With the continuous deepening of medical insurance payment reform, the implementation of the ambulatory patient groups(APG) based point system for payment has posed new challenges to the quality management of outpatient electronic medical record writing, as well as the supervision and operation management of outpatient costs in hospitals. A certain hospital began information technology construction in July 2021. By introducing diagnostic grouping functions into the outpatient electronic medical record system, the hospital strengthened the standardization of medical record writing. It also established an intelligent audit system for medical insurance costs to conduct full-process supervision of outpatient medical expenses and developed an intelligent operation analysis system for outpatient APG to provide a basis for hospital operation management decisions and performance distribution. These measures effectively improved the quality of outpatient medical record, reduced outpatient medical costs, and optimized their structure. The application of the intelligent medical insurance audit system also effectively prevented certain non-compliant issues in medical insurance payments, which can provide a reference for other medical institutions.

Objective:To verify the applicability of the flight potential evaluation system in the psychological selection of pilots by testing the reliability and validity of the system.Methods:Between September and October 2021, 82 subjects, including 32 pilots and 50 volunteers, were recruited from the Aviation Force and the Air Force Medical Center to complete the flight potential evaluation system test. The pilots and volunteers were divided into the high score group (the top 27% in terms of scores) and low score group (the 27% from the bottom) according to the total score of the evaluation. In order to ensure the consistency of evaluation conditions, some subjects were selected to complete a second evaluation test one week later for reliability analysis. Six flight experts completed the Content Evaluation Form of the Flight Potential Evaluation System while the officer completed the Flight Performance Evaluation Questionnaire as the performance data of the pilots. The pass rates of the pilots and volunteers and discriminability of the flight potential evaluation system were analyzed to test the stability and effectiveness of the system.Results:①The flight potential evaluation system demonstrated a pass rate of 0.75 and a discriminability of 0.30 in pilots, compared with 0.30 and 0.51 in volunteers. The total scores of pilots and volunteers were (7.00±1.16) points and (3.38±2.15) points, respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( t=9.87, P<0.001). Significant differences were found in test scores between high-score group and low-score group for both pilots ( t=10.01, P<0.001) and volunteers ( Z=-4.65, P<0.001). ②Thirty-seven subjects (including 32 pilots and 5 volunteers, all from the Aviation Force) were tested twice, and the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient for the paired results of 2 identical tests was r=0.750 ( P<0.001). ③As for the content of the evaluation system test, the experts′ degree of agreement and unanimity rate were 1. The evaluation score by the officer was positively correlated with the test score ( r=0.389, P=0.041). Conclusions:The flight potential evaluation system has a strong ability to distinguish flight-related abilities, suggesting that the system can be applied to the psychological selection of pilots and provide data for subsequent tests during the recruitment of candidates.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and postoperative radiotherapy remains an essential component of its treatment. In recent years, hypofractionated radiotherapy has gradually become the recommended approach for postoperative breast cancer treatment. Compared with conventional fractionated radiotherapy, hypofractionated regimens shorten the overall treatment duration, enhance patient convenience, and reduce treatment costs, while achieving comparable long-term efficacy and maintaining good quality of life. Based on relevant domestic and international studies and clinical experience, this consensus establishes expert recommendations regarding indications, prescribed doses, dose constraints for organs at risk (OAR), implementation methods, and plan evaluation for hypofractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer surgery, with a particular focus on moderately hypofractionated (MHF) and ultrahypofractionated (UHF) regimens. MHF radiotherapy is applicable to whole-breast irradiation, chest wall irradiation, and regional nodal irradiation, and is suitable for most breast cancer patients. UHF radiotherapy, which employs a higher dose per fraction to further shorten the treatment course, is suitable for patients requiring rapid therapy or prioritizing treatment convenience. Although the short-term efficacy of UHF radiotherapyis similar to that of MHF radiotherapy, its long-term efficacy and safety require further clinical validation. Meanwhile, potential adverse effects of UHF, such as breast induration and atrophy, should be carefully assessed. Therefore, radiotherapy dose and fractionation regimen should be individualized according to patient-specific factors, particularly considering OAR dose constraints. Rational selection of radiotherapy regimens can minimize adverse effects while maintaining therapeutic efficacy, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life. This consensus provides scientific guidance for the clinical and research application of hypofractionated radiotherapy in breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of scoliosis among middle school students through school-based screening, and to analyze the correlations between axial trunk rotation (ATR) angle and Cobb angle among those with scoliosis considering gender, age, body mass index (BMI) and curve type, so as to provide references for early prevention and treatment.Methods:Random cluster sampling was used to enroll 9501 middle school students from 11 schools in the Hanyang District of Wuhan. They underwent a six-step scoliosis screening with a forward bending test, scoliometer measurements, and confirmatory X-ray examinations. The students exhibiting scoliosis were stratified by gender, age, BMI, and curve type. The correlation between ATR angle and Cobb angle was subsequently analyzed within each subgroup.Results:Scoliosis was observed in 358 of the students (150 boys and 208 girls), a positive screening rate of 3.8%. Moreover, the positive screening rate was significantly higher among the girls (4.8%) than among the boys (2.9%). There was a moderate Spearman correlation ( r=0.69) between the ATR and Cobb angles in 358 of the students with scoliosis, both the boys ( r=0.69) and the girls ( r=0.70). When it came to age, there was a positive correlation between the ATR and Cobb angles for students aged 13 to 16 irrespective of their BMI classification, except that there was no significant correlation between the two angles for those classified as obese. In terms of Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) classification, there was a positive correlation for those in types Ia, Ib, Ic, IIa, IIb, IIc and IId, but there was no significant correlation between the two angles for those in type III. Conclusions:Scoliosis is prevalent among the group of adolescents studied. Society, schools and parents need to prioritize prevention, heightened awareness, timely diagnosis and early treatment, particularly for girls. The ATR angle may serve as a practical surrogate for estimating Cobb angle severity in scoliosis screening for single-curve or double-curve cases. However, ATR measurements may yield false-negative results among those with triple-curve deformities or the obese, underscoring the need for supplementary diagnostic methods among such populations.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)is a rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prions,with certain infectivity and iatrogenic transmission risks.With the rapid progress and application of new dia-gnostic biomarkers and detection methods,as well as the construction and improvement of surveillance and reporting systems,the detection of CJD in patients domestically and internationally has shown an increasing trend year by year.Due to its long incubation period and heterogeneity of early symptoms,early identification and diagnosis of the disease is difficult,increasing the risk of transmission within medical institutions.Currently,there is a lack of con-sensus on the infection prevention and control of CJD.In order to timely identify and diagnose CJD as well as effec-tively block its transmission in medical institutions,this consensus summarizes 15 clinical concerns and formulates 24 specific recommendations based on the latest domestic and international research findings and clinical evidence,as well as combines with clinical practice,aiming to standardize healthcare-associated infection prevention and control measures for CJD and reduce its transmission risk in medical institutions.

Objective:To explore the relationship between gut microbiota and giant cell arteritis (GCA), and to identifyits potential therapeutic strategies.Methods:Gut microbiota data were obtained from the MiBioGen consortium genome-wide association study (GWAS), and GCA data were obtained from the FinnGen consortium public GWAS. Causal associations between gut microbiota and GCA were assessed using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses, including inverse-variance weighted (IVW), weighted median, MR-Egger regression, simple mode, and weighted mode methods. Heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy were evaluated, and false positive results were excluded by using the Benjamini-Hochberg (BH) method of multiple hypothesis testing. All analyses were completed using the TwoSampleMR and MRPRESSO software packages (version 4.3.0) in R language. The analysis of the intestinal flora data, followed by conducting network pharmacology analysis were carried out by Cytoscape 3.9.1 and perform molecular docking verification was performed with AutoDock Vina software.Results:IVW simulations revealed 13 gut microbiota taxa were associated with GCA, of which Lachnospiraceae was significantly negatively associated with GCA risk[nSNP=16, OR(95% CI)=0.32(0.16, 0.63), β=-1.15, Se=0.35, P=0.001, FDR<0.05], and there was no heterogeneity (Cochran′s Q test, Q=13.42, P=0.490) as well as horizontal pleiotropy ( P=0.370). Further literature search and computer simulation docking analysis showed that genistein binds to MMP2 with a binding energy of -43.1 kJ/mol. Conclusion:Lachnospiraceae in the gut microbiota was is negatively associated with GCA, and genistein may be able to regulate the abundance of Lachnospiraceae through the MMP2 target to treat GCA, providing a new therapeutic approach for giant cell arteritis.
