Based on the analysis of the existing problems and implementation dilemmas in family doctor contracting and first-return-visits faced by primary medical institutions in China, the authors propose countermeasures to provide reference for managers of primary health care institutions.

By sorting out the differences and connections between family doctor teams and specialized disease teams, role competency and mutual collaboration, and introducing the learning health system (LHS) mechanism, a comprehensive operating system for community general practice learning organizations based on LHS was constructed, focusing on five single disease types. The system includes a combination of general and specialized medicine that links three levels of medical institutions, thereby opening up the business cooperation process between professionals in different institutions, and establishing a sustainable collaboration mechanism. This allows medical institutions at three levels to continuously tap the potential of their disciplines, achieve their own ability growth and feel higher work value, and also bring better health solutions to residents, guided by the common goal of "health centered, patient centered".

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in children in Jiangsu Province from 2014 to 2023.Methods:The acute respiratory infection cases in children aged 0-14 years were selected from outpatient/emergency or inpatient departments in 2 surveillance sentinel hospitals, respectively, in Nanjing, Suzhou and Taizhou of Jiangsu from 1 July 2014 to 31 December 2023, and RSV nucleic acid test was conducted and the intensity of the RSV infection was accessed by WHO influenza epidemiological threshold method, and case information and clinical data were collected. χ2 test was used to compare the differences between groups, and the Bonferroni method was used for pairwise comparisons between groups. Results:In 4 946 cases of acute respiratory infections, the RSV positive rate was 8.21% (406/4 946), and the age M( Q1, Q3) of the cases was 1 (0, 3) years. The RSV positive rate was 10.92% (258/2 362) during 2014-2019 and 6.06% (118/1 948) during 2019-2023, the difference was significant ( χ2=31.74, P<0.001). RSV infection mainly occurred from October to March during 2014-2019, with the incidence peak in December and moderate or higher intensity. The seasonality of RSV infection was not obvious during 2019-2023, with low intensity. The RSV positive rate was highest in children in age group 0- years (17.85%, 151/846), and the positive rate declined gradually with age ( χ2=184.51, P<0.001). The RSV positive rate was higher in inpatient cases (9.84%, 244/2 480) than in outpatient/emergency cases (6.57%, 162/2 466) ( χ2=17.54, P<0.001). In the 155 RSV infection cases with complete clinical data, the clinical symptoms mainly included cough (99.35%, 154/155), fever (55.48%, 86/155), and shortness of breath (45.16%, 70/155). In the cases aged <6 months, the proportion of those with fever was low, but the proportion of those with shortness of breath, transferred to intensive care units, and receiving oxygen therapy were higher (all P<0.05). Children aged <6 months and those with underlying diseases were more likely to have severe RSV infection (all P<0.05). Conclusions:RSV infection in children in Jiangsu Province showed seasonal prevalence in winter from 2014 to 2019. Since 2020, the seasonal characteristics of the epidemic have changed, the epidemic period has been dispersed and the epidemic intensity has decreased. Infants <1 year old were at high risk for RSV infection, and those <6 months old and with underlying diseases might have severe infection.

Objective:To explore the application value of real-time vascular quantification stiffness (R-VQS) technique in evaluating carotid artery elasticity and hemodynamic status in type 2 diabetic nephropathy (T2DN).Methods:The clinical data of 86 patients with T2DN treatment in the Fifth People′s Hospital of Zhuhai from March 2020 to March 2022 were collected retrospectively, according to the clinical stage, 44 patients were in the early stage group and 42 patients were in the clinical stage group. All of them underwent R-VQS technique to obtain carotid artery elasticity parameters stiffness index (HC), systolic diameter (Diam), diameter change value (Dist) and hemodynamic indexes pulse conduction velocity (PWV). Among the 86 patients, 21 had atherosclerosis (AS) and 65 did not. The differences of HC, Diam, Dist and PWV between the patients with and without AS were compared, and the value of HC, Diam, Dist and PWV in diagnosing T2DN complicated with AS was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The HC, Diam and PWV in the clinical phase group were higher than those in the early phase group, and Dist was lower than that in the early phase group: 4.76 ± 0.60 vs. 4.15 ± 0.52, (8.69 ± 1.13) mm vs. (7.21 ± 0.84) mm, (7.42 ± 0.63) m/s vs. (6.84 ± 0.57) m/s, (0.27 ± 0.07) mm vs. (0.35 ± 0.09) mm, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The HC, Diam and PWV in the patients with AS were higher than those in the patients without AS, and Dist was lower than that in the patients without AS: 4.82 ± 0.63 vs. 4.33 ± 0.51, (8.85 ± 1.18) mm vs. (7.63 ± 1.06) mm, (7.68 ± 0.75) m/s vs. (6.94 ± 0.59) m/s, (0.24 ± 0.05) mm vs. (0.33 ± 0.10) mm, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of the combined diagnosis of T2DN complicated with AS by HC, Diam, Dist and PWV was 0.921, and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 90.48% and 84.62%, respectively. Conclusions:R-VQS technology can detect abnormal changes in carotid elasticity and hemodynamics in patients with T2DN, and can diagnose T2DN complicated with AS. It can provide a reference basis for clinical prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications in T2DN patients.

Objective:To describe the current status and efficacy of additional acarbose combined with insulin therapy in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) .Methods:Adult T1DM patients with acarbose combined with insulin (acarbose group) or insulin alone (insulin group), age≥18 years and disease course≥1 year, who were registered in the T1DM Translational Medicine Research Project of Guangdong Province from June 2011 to December 2014 were enrolled in the study. The hemoglobin A1c (HbA 1c), body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), insulin dosage and hypoglycemia of acarbose group and insulin group after 1 year were compared. Results:A total of 717 adult patients with T1DM were included (62 cases in acarbose group and 655 cases in insulin group). At the time of enrollment, the onset age of acarbose group was higher than that of insulin group [(31.1±12.3)years vs (27.4±12.4)years, P=0.019]; There were no significant differences in gender, age, course of disease, body weight, BMI, WHR, proportion of carbohydrate heat ≥50%, proportion of exercise time ≥150 min per week, HbA 1c, dosage of insulin, occurence of hypoglycemia and proportion of patients with dyslipidemia between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). After 1 year of follow-up, the HbA 1c in acarbose and insulin group decreased from baseline ( P=0.014, P<0.001), the body weight and BMI increased from baseline (all P<0.05), but WHR, insulin dosage and hypoglycemia occurrence were not statistically significant between the two groups (all P>0.05). After 1 year of follow-up, there were no significant difference in changes of HbA 1c, body weight, BMI, WHR, insulin dosage and hypoglycemia occurrence in acarbose group compared with insulin group from baseline (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In the clinical practice of T1DM treatment, acarbose is used more frequently in patients with a slightly older age of onset. Treatment of T1DM with insulin combined with acarbose did not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia, and no benefit was observed in improving HbA 1c, maintaining body weight, and reducing insulin use.

Olfactory epithelium, which detects and transmits odor signals, is critical for the function of olfactory system. Olfactory epithelium is able to recover spontaneously after injury under normal circumstances, but this ability is dampened in certain diseases or senility, which causes olfactory dysfunction. The olfactory epithelium consists of basal cells, sustentacular cells and olfactory sensory neurons. In order to develop an olfactory epithelial organoid containing multiple olfactory cell types in vitro, we used three-dimensional culture model and small molecules screening. This organoid system consists of horizontal basal-like cells, globose basal-like cells, sustentacular-like cells and olfactory sensory neurons-like cells. Through statistical analysis of clone diameter, immunofluorescence staining and qPCR detection of the expression level of related marker genes. We identified a series of growth factors and small molecule compounds that affected the proliferation, composition and gene expression of the organoids. CHIR-99021, an activator of Wnt signaling pathway, increased the colony formation and proliferation rate of olfactory epithelial organoids and the expression level of marker genes of olfactory sensory neurons-like cells. In addition, each factor in the culture system increased the proportion of c-Kit-positive globose basal-like cell colonies in organoids. Moreover, EGF and vitamin C were both beneficial to the expression of horizontal basal-like cell marker genes in organoids. The established olfactory epithelial organoid system mimicked the process of olfactory epithelial stem cells differentiating into various olfactory epithelial cell types, thus providing a research model for studying olfactory epithelial tissue regeneration, the pathological mechanism of olfactory dysfunction and drug screening for olfactory dysfunction treatment.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic performance of MRI Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2018 in high-risk hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with intrahepatic parenchymal substantial lesions ≤3.0 cm.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted in hospitals between September 2014 to April 2020. 131 pathologically confirmed non-HCC cases with lesions ≤3.0 cm in diameter were randomly matched with 131 cases with lesions ≤3.0 cm in diameter and divided into benign (56 cases), other hepatic malignant tumor (OM, 75 cases), and HCC group (131 cases) in a 1:1 ratio. MRI features of the lesions were analyzed and classified according to LI-RADS v2018 criteria (tie-break rule was applied to lesions with both HCC and LR-M features). Taking the pathological results as the gold standard, the sensitivity and specificity of the LI-RADS v2018 classification criteria and the more stringent LR-5 criteria (with three main signs of HCC at the same time) were calculated for HCC, OM or benign lesions diagnosis. Mann -Whitney U test was used to compare the classification results. Results:The number of cases classified as LR-M, LR-1, LR-2, LR-3, LR-4, and LR-5 in HCC group after applying the tie-break rule were 14, 0, 0, 12, 28, and 77, respectively. There were 40, 0, 0, 4, 17, 14 and 8, 5, 1, 26, 13, 3 cases in benign and OM group, respectively. There were 41 (41/77), 4 (4/14) and 1 (1/3) lesion case in the HCC, OM and benign group, respectively, that met the more stringent LR-5 criteria. The sensitivity of LR-4 combined with LR-5 (LR-4/5) criteria, LR-5 criteria and more stringent LR-5 criteria for HCC diagnosis were 80.2% (105/131), 58.8% (77/131) and 31.3% (41/131), respectively, and the specificity were 64.1% (84/131), 87.0% (114/131) and 96.2% (126/131), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of LR-M were 53.3% (40/75) and 88.2% (165/187), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity using LR-1 combined with LR-2 (LR-1/2) criteria for the diagnosis of benign liver lesions were 10.7% (6/56) and 100% (206/206), respectively.Conclusions:LR-1/2, LR-5, and LR-M criteria have high diagnostic specificity for intrahepatic lesions with a diameter of ≤3.0 cm. Lesions classified as LR-3 are more likely to be benign. The specificity of LR-4/5 criteria is low, while the more stringent LR-5 criteria has a high specificity for HCC diagnosis.

Objective]To explore the aberrant expression of SOD1 gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues,as well as in NPC cell lines,then to observe the effect of SOD1 on NPC cells metastatic ability and investigate the intrinsic?mechanism.[Methods]Immunohistochemical technique was used to examine SOD1 expression in carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues(n=10). Small interfering RNAs and inhibitor LCS-1 were used to knockdown of SOD1 expression and inhibit SOD1 activity, respectively. Then,wound healing test and migration assay were applied to detect cell metastatic ability in vitro. Real-time PCR and Western Blot were used to analyze the expression of EMT-related genes(E-cadherin,Vimentin,Twist).[Results]SOD1 was found to be significantly up-regulated in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues(n = 7 ,70%),compared to control. SOD1 was also highly expressed in highly metastatic potential NPC cell lines(CNE2,5-8F,S18)compared with low metastatic ability cell lines(6-10B). Knockdown SOD1 expression or inhibit SOD1 activity suppress cell motility in CNE2 and 5-8F cells. Finally,we demonstrate that SOD1 inhibition plays a role in induction of epithelial marker E-cadherin and has an opposite effect on mesenchymal marker vimen tin and transcriptional factor twist.[Conclusion]These results suggest that SOD1 contributes to EMT and might be important for tumor metastasis in NPC.
