Objective To explore the effect of job satisfaction on job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals and to examine the mediating effect of career growth in this relationship. Methods A total of 384 administrative staff from 20 public hospitals in Tianjin City were recruited as participants using the convenience sampling method. Their job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth were measured with the Maslach Burnout Inventory, Job Satisfaction Scale, and Career Growth Scale, respectively. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 23.0, and the mediating effect was examined with the Bootstrap method. Results The mean scores of job burnout, job satisfaction, and career growth among participants were (43.1±15.4), (14.4±5.7), and (8.3±4.2), respectively. The results of the mediating effect analysis showed that career growth played a significant mediating role between job satisfaction and job burnout among the public hospital administrative staff, with the mediating effect accounting for approximately 22.2% to 52.2% of the total effect. Conclusion Job satisfaction of public hospital administrative staff can directly affect their job burnout, and it can also influence job burnout through the mediating effect of career growth. Effective measures to improve job satisfaction and promote career growth may help alleviate job burnout among administrative staff in public hospitals.

Swift response to public complaints is a mechanism reform and efficiency driven approach for grassroots social governance, which plays a pivotal role in urban management. This study took Beijing as an example to introduce the overall development process of swift response to public complaints and its development status in the medical and health service system. It was believed that the work of handling complaints is a reform and innovation to deepen grassroots governance in the capital and a vivid practice of implementing the patient-centered development concept in the medical and health service system. This study summarized the research progress related to swift response to public complaints. From the perspective of mega city governance, the existing problems in the work of handling complaints in health field were explored, including inconsistent implementation of policies, the need to improve supervision and evaluation mechanisms; The coexistence of obstacles to patient demands and ineffective complaints, and the impact on patient participation; Difficulties in cross institutional collaboration, and the need to improve the level of information construction. In response to these issues, it was proposed to further deepen institutional and mechanism reforms to ensure the effective implementation of policies; build a patient-centered healthcare service system that involves patient participation; promote cross institutional information sharing and improve the efficiency of handling appeals; standardize the classification and management of demands, promote the overall improvement of medical quality, so as to provide references for the continuous improvement of the work of handling complaints immediately and the enhancement of the medical and health service system in China′s mega cities.

A case control study including 45 acute pancreatitis and 44 healthy volunteers was performed to investigate the association between intestinal microbial community and acute pancreatitis. High-throughput 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing was used to profile the microbiological composition of the samples. In total, 27 microbial phyla were detected and the samples of pancreatitis patients contained fewer phyla. Samples from acute pancreatitis patients contained more Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria and fewer Firmicutes and Actinobacteria than those from healthy volunteers. PCoA analyses distinguished the fecal microbial communities of acute pancreatitis patients from those of healthy volunteers. The intestinal microbes of acute pancreatitis patients are different from those of healthy volunteers. Modulation of the intestinal microbiome may serve as an alternative strategy for treating acute pancreatitis.
