This study aims to innovate a homogeneous outpatient service management system across multiple hospital campuses to enhance service quality.Based on the practical experience of a tertiary general hospital in Guangdong Province and in accordance with the"Interim Regulations on Outpatient Quality Management in Healthcare Institutions,"we constructed a"6+1"homogeneous outpatient service management system.This system includes:① a multi-stakeholder co-governance outpa-tient management system,②a vertical and cross-hierarchical management network,③ a democratic-centralized clinical coordina-tion strategy,④ a guidance-encouragement performance evaluation standard,⑤a collaborative dynamic supervision mechanism,⑥a spiral retrospective evaluation and improvement method,and ⑦ an integrated outpatient diagnosis and treatment system.Af-ter over two years of implementation,the hospital's outpatient volume has grown by an average of over 15％annually,patient waiting time after appointment has been reduced to 20 minutes,and patient satisfaction in the tertiary public hospital performance evaluation achieved full marks.The electronic medical record system functionality reached Level 6,significantly improving healthcare service efficiency and quality while enhancing homogeneous management across campuses.

Approximately 300 million tons of plastic are produced globally each year,which has a serious impact on human health,marine life and the livestock industry.Microplastics have also been detected in meat and milk samples.Research has shown that nanoplastics(NP)(＜1 μm)and mi-croplastics(MP)(1 μm-5 mm)can affect the digestive,immune and reproductive systems of ani-mals.This experiment aims to investigate whether NP and MP regulate autophagy and damage the nervous system and spatial memory of animals.This experiment was divided into control group,nanoplastic group(PS-NP group,0.1 μm)and microplastic group(PS-MP group,1 μm),with 20 mice in each group.The mice were given 0.5 mL of PS-NP and PS-MP every day for 35 consecutive days,followed by neck amputation and brain analysis.The results showed that NPs and MPs of dif-ferent diameters caused varying degrees of damage to the brains of mice.In the behavioral tests of new object recognition,barnes maze and Y-shaped maze spatial memory,compared with the control group,the PS-NP group and PS-MP group showed a significant decrease in spatial memory ability of mice.HE staining results showed that neuronal cells in the PS-NP and PS-MP groups of mice exhibited shrinkage,decreased cell volume and deepened staining.The number of Nissl bodies de-creased,leading to dissolution and disappearance.RT-PCR and Western blot results showed that compared with the control group,the expression of glutamate receptors NR1,NR2A and NR2B in-creased in mice administered NP and MP orally,while the expression of autophagy related proteins Parkin,LC3B and Beclin1 was inhibited.In summary,this study suggests that nanoplastics and mi-croplastics stimulate glutamate receptors in mice by inhibiting the autophagy pathway,leading to impaired spatial memory.

BACKGROUND:Gait dysfunction is one of the significant reasons for patient dissatisfaction following total knee arthroplasty.Clinical studies have identified a relationship between the preoperative strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles and postoperative gait dysfunction,but the exact nature of this correlation is not yet fully understood.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation between the preoperative strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles and postoperative gait dysfunction in total knee arthroplasty.METHODS:A retrospective analysis was conducted on longitudinal data from 70 patients who underwent unilateral primary total knee arthroplasty.Preoperative measurements included peak torque of the extensor and flexor muscles,peak torque/body weight,and total work.Six months postoperatively,the Timed Up and Go Test and gait speed were measured.Ridge regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing postoperative gait function.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Preoperative peak torque,peak torque/body weight,and total work of the extensor muscles,as well as the peak torque and total work of the flexor muscles,showed a very strong positive correlation with postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).The preoperative flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had a strong positive correlation with postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).Preoperative extensor and flexor muscle peak torques,peak torque/body weight,and total work showed a very strong negative correlation with results from postoperative Timed Up and Go Test(P＜0.001).(2)Ridge regression analysis indicated a 94.2％likelihood that preoperative extensor muscle peak torque,peak torque/body weight,and total work,along with flexor muscle peak torque and total work,had a positive impact on gait speed after total knee arthroplasty(P＜0.001).The preoperative flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had a negative impact on postoperative gait speed(P＜0.001).There was an 87.7％likelihood that preoperative extensor and flexor muscle peak torques,peak torque/body weight,and total work,along with flexor muscle peak torque and total work,had a negative impact on postoperative Timed Up and Go Test(P＜0.05),while the flexor muscle peak torque/body weight had no impact on the Timed Up and Go Test(P＞0.05).(3)It is indicated that the strength of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles prior to total knee arthroplasty correlates with postoperative gait speed and Timed Up and Go Test,and can predict the outcomes of postoperative gait function.Enhancing preoperative knee muscle exercises may be a way to reduce the incidence of gait dysfunction following total knee arthroplasty.

Objective To investigate the stent location and effectiveness in different types of iliac vein compression.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with left iliac vein compression who underwent stent implantation at our department from June 2021 to December 2023. Based on the location of compression, patients were categorized into high, classical, and low types. The patients’ general information, lesion characteristics, stent details, stent patency, and clinical outcomes were analyzed and followed up.Results A total of 242 patients were included in this study. And 90. 9% (220 cases) were the classical type, 5.4% (13 cases) were the high type, and 3.7% (9 cases) were the low type. There was no significant difference in age distribution, gender ratio and comorbidities among the three groups. The length of inferior vena cava protruding from the high type was significantly longer than that of the classical type[(3.1±0.8) cm vs. (1.6±1.0) cm, P<0.001), but significantly shorter in the low type[(-0.7±2.4) cm vs. (1.6±1.0) cm, P<0.001). The mean follow-up time was (18.0±7.0) months. The stent patency rate was 97.0% at 1 year and 92.8% at 2 years postoperation. The clinical symptoms of the three groups were significantly relieved. No thrombosis was found in right limbs.Conclusions There is a significant difference in the location of the stent tip between classical and non-classical compression types. Complete coverage of lesion by the stent should be the prerequisite for stent placement in treatment of all three types. Small sample, short-term follow-up data suggested that stents can also relieve clinical symptoms and have good patency rate in the high compression type and the low compression type.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of nasal administration of non-mitogenic acid fibroblast growth factor(NMFGF1) loaded nanoparticles(NMFGF1-NPs) on the improvement of cognitive function in vascular dementia(VD) mice and its mechanism. METHODS Nanoparticles containing NMFGF1(NMFGF1-NPs) were prepared by water-in-water emulsion technique and characterized. The mice were divided into sham group, VD model group, blank-NPs group, NMFGF1 solution group and NMFGF1-NPs group after repeated cerebral ischemia-reperfusion to establish VD test model, and then given the corresponding form of drug intervention by nasal cavity. After drug intervention, Morris water maze was used to evaluate the learning and memory function of the animals in each group from the perspective of behavior. Meanwhile, the morphology, arrangement and apoptosis index(AI) of hippocampal neurons in each group were evaluated by pathological methods such as HE staining, FJB staining and Tunel apoptosis staining. In addition, ELISA and Western blotting were used to investigate the molecular mechanism of NMFGF1-NPs improving VD by nasal administration. RESULTS The morphology of NMFGF1-NPs was round. The encapsulation rate of NMFGF1-NPs respectively was (87.76±5.89)%. Morris water maze results showed that the behavioral indexes of mice in VD model group were significantly different from those in sham operation group(P<0.01). At the same time, the pathological results showed that the neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in the VD model group were disordered, the cells morphology and structure were missing, and the AI was significantly increased compared with that in the sham operation group(P<0.01). Meanwhile, compared with the VD model group, the NMFGF1-NPs treatment group showed significant improvement in various behavioral indexes, and the hippocampal neuron cells were intact and orderly, and the AI index was significantly decreased(P<0.01). ELISA and Western blotting analysis showed that compared with that of VD model group and other intervention groups, the content of MDA in the brain of NMFGF1-NPs treatment group was significantly decreased. While the content of SOD, NO and the expressions of Nrf2, SOD-1 and GSTO1/2 was significantly increased (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Nasal administration of NMFGF1-NPs can play the role of antioxidant stress damage by activating Nrf2/ARE signal pathway, and ultimately improve the learning and cognitive function of VD mice.
