Health insurance fund regulation (HIFR) is a vital issue in the modernization of healthcare security governance, with its importance as a primary task of the healthcare security department continually reinforced in policy practice. This study focused on the 22 specialized policies issued by the National Healthcare Security Administration from its establishment in 2018 to March 2024, deeply analyzed their issue characteristics, and summarized the evolutionary trends of policy changes, as well as the knowledge production patterns that existed in the series of policy formulation, implementation, and feedback processes. Our analysis revealed that the diverse issue characteristics had led to heterogeneous directions in HIFR policies. The policy development process presented distinct composite evolutionary trends, mainly manifested in four aspects: the integration of regulatory system and content, the convergence of professional and societal forces, the parallelism of special governance and regular supervision, and the complementarity of conventional and emerging methods. Additionally, the study demonstrated that the knowledge production embedded in policy evolution encompassed four different dimensions: problem rectification, norm setting, pilot experience, and technical absorption. Together with issue characteristics and policy evolution, they formed an integrated, dynamic, and open system of knowledge production, continuously promoting the renewal and iteration of regulation policies.

Objective To explore the factors affecting the use of medical sutures in medical institutions based on the autore-gressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model so as to provide basis and optimization strategy for the rational use of medical sutures in medical institutions.Methods The monthly usage amount of medical sutures in some hospital from January 2014 to November 2023 was used as the research subject.An ARIMA model was established by R language,with the data on medical suture usage amount from January 2014 to December 2018 used as the training set;the reliability of the ARIMA model was verified with the data on medical suture usage amount from January to December 2019 as the validation set.The monthly usage amount of medical sutures from January 2021 to November 2023 was predicted with the validated ARIMA model,then the predictive value was compared with the actual one to evaluate the benefits of implementing the medical suture optimization policy in January 2021.Results The established ARIMA model passed the white noise test(P＞0.05),and the difference between the predicted and actual values for the whole year of 2019 was not statistically significant(P＞0.05);after the implementation of the medical suture optimization policy,the actual usage amount of medical sutures in some hospital decreased.The actual value from January 2021 to November 2023 was much lower than the predicted value,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The ARIMA model-based medical suture usage data prediction and configuration optimization scheme contributes to clarifying the law of medical suture usage in some hospital,and provides references for optimization and precision managment of medical suture configuration.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(8):73-77]

Objective This study used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI)to investigate the changes of local brain regional homogeneity in patients with depression and childhood maltreatment,and we calculated the relationship between altered ReHo values and the severity of childhood maltreatment.Methods 25 patients with depression and childhood maltreatment,25 patients with depression without childhood maltreatment,and 25 age,gender,and education-matched healthy controls were prospectively enrolled.All subjects underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging and ReHo analysis.One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the group differences,along with multiple comparison correction.Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between region ReHo values with clinical scales.Results Compared with the group of depression without childhood maltreatment,the abnormal brain regions of depression with childhood maltreatment are mainly located in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,cerebellum,parietal gyrus,and precentral gyrus.The ReHo values of depression with childhood maltreatment in the left cerebellum and the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex are correlated with the severity of childhood maltreatment.Conclusions Depression with childhood mal-treatment is associated with changes in local spontaneous brain activity,which are correlated with the severity of childhood maltreatment.The brain changes in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and cerebellum may explain the neurobiological mechanisms of depression with childhood maltreatment.

The compound (E)-1-(4-(3-(5-chloro-6-oxo-3,6-dihydropyridin-1(2H)-yl)-3-oxo-propyl-1-ene-1-yl) phenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl) urea (C12), a novel derivative of piperlongumine previously synthesized by our research group, was investigated in this study to examine its effects on human non-small cell lung cancer cell line H1299 in vitro and elucidate its potential mechanism of action. The impact of C12 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of H1299 cells were assessed using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, wound healing assay, cloning formation assay, and Transwell assay. Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate the influence of C12 on cell cycle progression, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and apoptosis induction in H1299 cells. Western blot analysis was conducted to investigate the expression levels of p21, Cyclin B1, CDK1, Bax, Bcl-2, JNK, p-JNK, Erk1/2, p-Erk1/2, p38 and p-p38 proteins for exploring the anti-tumor mechanism underlying C12's actions. The results demonstrated that C12 exerted inhibitory effects on the proliferation, migration, and invasion capacities of H1299 cells in a time-dependent and concentration-dependent manner. Moreover, C12 induced G2/M phase arrest in the cell cycle, reduced MMP levels, elevated ROS production, and triggered apoptotic processes. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that C12 downregulated Cyclin B1 and CDK1 protein expressions, resulting in G2/M phase arrest. C12 also upregulated Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, promoting apoptosis. Furthermore, C12 activated MAPK signaling pathway by enhancing phosphorylation levels of JNK, Erk1/2, and p38 proteins. In conclusion, C12 significantly suppressed proliferation, migration, and invasion capabilities while inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in H1299 cells. These effects may be attributed to activation of the MAPK signaling pathway.
