Refined operational management is crucial to enhance hospital operational efficiency and achieve sustainable and high-quality development.A large tertiary comprehensive hospital,selected as an observation subject in this study,has har-nessed the value inherent in its extensive operational data,thereby constructing a data-driven operational management framework.Through measures such as developing an operational management system,setting up an operational data hub,and optimizing re-source allocation based on data modeling,this hospital has conducted comprehensive operational analysis at the hospital,depart-ment,and project levels,established a performance management system grounded in data,and enhanced risk prevention and con-trol capabilities,investigating the refined operational management.These efforts have led to incremental improvements in hospital quality,continuous enhancements in operational efficiency,and significant increases in patient and employee satisfaction.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate and location of rotational vertebral artery occlusion syndrome and its association with the symptoms of posterior circulation ischemia， the lesions of posterior circulation infarction， and newly-onset posterior circulation stroke. Methods A total of 283 patients who met the criteria were included， and the patients with positive results of neck rotation test and those with negative results were compared in terms of symptoms， imaging findings， and newly-onset posterior circulation stroke during follow-up. The chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups， with P<0.05 indicating statistical significance. Results Among the 283 patients enrolled， 23 （8.13%） met the diagnostic criteria for rotational vertebral artery occlusion syndrome. There was no significant difference in posterior circulation ischemic symptoms between the positive group and the negative group （P=0.089）， and compared with the negative group， the positive group had significantly higher numbers of posterior circulation infarcts at baseline and newly-onset cases of posterior circulation stroke during follow-up （P=0.010 and 0.009）. Conclusion Rotational vertebral artery occlusion syndrome significantly increases the risk of posterior circulation infarction.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of rituximab (RTX) in children with calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) resistant steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS).Methods:A retrospective case analysis was conducted. Thirteen children with CNI resistant SRNS who were regularly treated with RTX (375 mg/m 2 per dose (maximum dose 500 mg), 1 dose per week, a total of 4 doses) in Department of Nephrology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from January 2016 to December 2023 were enrolled. The general data, disease related information, urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin, blood creatinine before RTX treatment, immunosuppressants, adverse events, and monthly urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin, and blood creatinine indexes within 6 months after RTX treatment were collected. The changes of urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) before and after RTX at 3 and 6 months were analyzed by using paired sample t test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results:Among the 13 patients, 8 were male and 5 were female. The age of disease onset was 4.0 (2.9, 6.8) years and the age of RTX treatment was 9.8 (5.9, 13.6) years. There were 8 cases of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 3 cases of minimal change disease and 2 cases of mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. No clinically significant gene variation was detected in 12 cases and the other one did not receive gene test. Before RTX treatment, 11 cases were in chronic kidney disease stage G1, and 1 case each was in stage G2 and stage G3. Ten children completed 4 doses of RTX treatment, 1 patient completed 3 doses, and 2 patients completed 2 doses. Urinary protein/creatinine in 13 children at 3 and 6 months after RTX treatment was significantly lower than baseline (0.60 (0.13, 2.04), 0.49 (0.28, 1.10) vs. 1.44 (0.76, 4.11) mg/mg, Z=-2.34, -2.34, both P<0.05), and serum albumin was significantly higher than baseline ((35±8), (34±7) vs. (30±6) g/L, t=2.30, 2.60, both P<0.05). The eGFR at 6 months after RTX treatment was not significantly different from the baseline ((110±32) vs. (113±35) ml/(min·1.73 m 2), t=-0.76, P>0.05)). No serious adverse reactions occurred in this study. Conclusion:RTX could reduce urinary protein and increase serum albumin in short-term treatment in children with CNI resistant SRNS without significant side effects.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and prognosis of children with kidney retransplantation.Methods:Clinical data of 11 children who underwent kidney retransplantation from January 2011 to December 2020 in Department of Nephrology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University were retrospectilely analyzed. The clinical data including demographic parameters, primary diagnosis, characteristics in the follow-up of renal allograft were analyzed.Results:Totally 11 cases received secondary renal transplantation (male 6, female 5). They were initially diagnosed with chronic kidney disease at the age of 11.9 (7.4, 13.3) years. The median duration of dialysis was 22.1 (3.5, 36.5) months. In the first transplantation, recipient age was 13.9 (11.1, 15.2) years. Ten cases received donation from cardiac death donor (DCD) (9 cases received donors aged less than one year, 5 of them received whole kidney transplantation and one case received donor aged one to three years) and 1 case with living-related donor. Ten graft failures occurred within 1 month after renal transplantation and the other one occurred at the fifth month after transplantation. The causes included vascular factors (9 cases), rejection (1 case) and primary non-function (1 case). In the second transplantation, recipient age was 14.7 (11.7, 16.2) years. All the 11 children received dialysis (7 with PD and 4 with HD) and successfully completed the second transplantation. The median time between the two transplants was 210 (16, 1 041) days. Donors were all DCD donors from 3 years of age or older. The mean follow-up duration was (42±15) months. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was (85±34)ml/(min·1.73 m 2) when the last investigation after kidney retransplantation with the kidney and patient all survived. Conclusions:Kidney retransplantation may have better prognosis in children. Dialysis transition during waiting period and DCD donor from 3 years of age or older can effectively ensure the success of kidney retransplantation.
