Lean six sigma (LSS) emphasizes patient demand-oriented, and continuously optimizing prolesses to achieve efficiency and standardization in medical services. Starting in 2021, a specialized children′s hospital (comprising one main campus and three branch campuses) introduced the LSS management method. Through define, measure, analyze, improve, and control, the hospital utilized tools such as questionnaire surveys, SIPOC models, and fishbone diagrams to identify pain points in the building of multi-campus child-friendly hospital and develop improvement measures.To address the main issues of insufficient cross-campus collaboration, significant disparities in service quality among different campuses, unclear functional positioning of each campus, and inadequate integration with social security mechanisms, the hospital implemented a " homogeneity-differentiation-coordination" management mode. The hospital implemented unified diagnosis and treatment standards and clinical pathways, carried out remote consultations and expert rotations, completed mutual recognition of examination and testing results, optimized child friendly labeling and child friendly environment, and built a " hospital-to-hospitals, hospital to medical schools, and hospital to community health centers" linkage platform, etc., to promote the standardization of diagnosis and treatment processes, clear functional positioning of the hospital area, and efficient resource allocation. Through practice, the outpatient appointment rate and patient satisfaction rate in the main hospital had increased from 86.72% and 98.64% in January December 2021 to 91.87% and 99.72% in January December 2024, respectively; The patient waiting time had been shortened from 26.54 minutes to 21.94 minutes, and the efficiency of medical treatment and service experience had been significantly improved. As of 2024, mutual recognition of 214 inspection and testing items had been achieved cross hospital campuses, forming a collaborative pattern of " main hospital leading, campuses support, and resource complementarity", and significantly improving the level of collaboration and child friendly connotation among multi-campus. This practice explored the integration path of multi-campus collaborative governance and child-friendly services, which could provide reference and inspiration for the similar hospitals.

Objective To investigate the expression of histone deacetylase(HDAC)isoforms in the frontal lobe,hippo-campus and liver of offspring rats delivered by rats with maternal immune activation and their correlation with the efficiency of prepulse inhibition(PPI%).Methods Ten pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the model group(n=5)and control group(n=5).The rats in the model group were injected with 10 mg·kg-1 polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid(Poly I:C)via the caudal vein on the 9th day of pregnancy,while rats in the control group were given the same volume of sterile physiological saline.After 3 h,blood was collected from the caudal vein,and the levels of interleukin(IL)-1 β,IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the plasma of pregnant rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to evaluate the immune activation status.The pregnant rats in the two groups were fed until natural delivery,the offspring rats were weaned on the 21st day after birth,and the male offspring rats were fed continuously.A prepulse inhibition test was performed at puberty(the 40th day after birth)to evaluate the spatial recognition memory and sensory gating function of the offspring rats.The expression levels of the HDAC gene family in the hippocampus,frontal lobe and liver of offspring rats were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results The plasma IL-6,IL-1 β and TNF-α levels in the model group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).When the prepulse stimulation was 75 dB,the PPI%of the offspring rats at puberty in the model group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).When the prepulse stimulation was 80 and 85 dB,there was no significant difference in PPI%between the model group and the control group(P>0.05).In the frontal lobe,the expression levels of HDAC3,HDAC4,HDAC8,HDAC9,HDAC10 and Sirt mRNA in the offspring rats in the model group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),while the expression level of HDAC5 mRNA was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05);there were no significant differences in the expression levels of HDAC1,HDAC2,HDAC6,HDAC7 and HDAC11 mRNA between the model group and the control group(P>0.05).In the hippocampus,the offspring rats in the model group had significantly lower expression levels of HDAC1,HDAC8 and HDAC10 mRNA and significantly higher expression levels of HDAC2 and HDAC5 mRNA than those in the control group(P<0.05);there were no significant differences in the expression levels of HDAC3,HDAC4,HDAC6,HDAC7,HDAC9,HDAC11 and Sirt mRNA between the model group and control group(P>0.05).In the liver tissue,the expression levels of HDAC6 and HDAC10 mRNA of the offspring rats in the model group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05);there were no significant differences in the expression levels of HDAC1,HDAC2,HDAC3,HDAC4,HDAC5,HDAC7,HDAC8,HDAC9,HDAC11 and Sirt mRNA between the model group and the control group(P>0.05).The expression level of HDAC2 mRNA in the hippocampus of offspring rats in the two groups was negatively correlated with PPI%at 75 dB(r=-0.965,P<0.05),the expression levels of HDAC10 and Sirt mRNA in frontal lobe tissues were positively correlated with PPI%at 75dB(r=0.946,0.925;P<0.05).Conclusion Pregnancy Poly I:C infection has significant effects on the expression of HDAC family proteins in offspring rats,and which is related to the impairment of early sensory gating,this may provide new ideas for the research in pathogenesis and drug treatment of schizophrenia.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of perineal incision complications after abdominoperineal resection (APR) for rectal cancer, and to establish a nomogram model to predict the complications of perineal incision. Methods A case?control study was conducted to retrospectively collect the medical records of 213 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent APR at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2010 to December 2016. The complications of perineal incision after APR were classified according to the modified Clavien?Dindo classification of surgical complications (Version 2019), and the complications of grade II and above were defined as"clinically significant complications".Twenty?two factors related to complication of perineal incision, such as gender, age, surgical procedure, surgical approach, perineal repair, placement of drainage tube, skin position of drainage tube, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy, intraoperative local perfusion chemotherapy, tumor classification, pathological grade, tumor T stage, tumor TNM stage and so on, were analyzed by chi?square test for univariate risk factor of complication in all variables, and variables with P<0.2 in univariate analysis were further included in multivariate analysis. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen out independent risk factors. R software (R 3.3.2) was introduced. The rms software package was used to construct a nomogram prediction model. The C?index was calculated (higher meaning better consistency with actual risk) to evaluate the discriminant degree of the model. The Bootstrap method was used to repeat the sampling for internal verification. A total of 42 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent APR from January 2017 to December 2017 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were externally validated, and the corrected C?index was calculated. The model conformity was determined by comparing the C?index calibration difference between the predicted and actual risks. Results Of the 213 patients with colorectal cancer, 131 were male and 82 were female, with mean age of (59.6 ± 11.6) years. The incidence of postoperative perineal incision complications was 20.2% (43/213), including 27 cases of Clavien?Dindo II and above complications. Univariate analysis showed that the Eastern Cancer Cooperative Group (ECOG) score, preoperative albumin, skin position of drainage tube, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy were associated with complications of postoperative perineal incision (All P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that preoperative albumin levels ≤38 g/L (OR=105.261, 95% CI: 7.781 to 1423.998, P<0.001), perinead drainage (OR=11.493, 95% CI: 1.379 to 95.767, P=0.024), intraoperative blood loss>110 ml (OR=6.476, 95% CI: 1.505 to 27.863, P=0.012) and preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy (OR=7.479, 95% CI: 1.887 to 29.640, P=0.004) were postoperative clinically significant independent risk factors for perineal incision complications. The nomogram model was established. Preoperative albumin level <38 g/L was for 100 points, the preoperative chemoradiotherapy was for 52.5 points, the intraoperative blood loss>110 ml was for 28.5 points, and the perineal drainage was for 17.5 points. Adding all the points was the total score, and the complication rate corresponding to the total score was the predicted rate of the model. The model had a C?index of 0.863. After internal verification, the C?index dropped by 0.005. External verification showed a C?index of 0.841. Conclusions Preoperative nutritional status, skin position of drainage tube, intraoperative blood loss and preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy may affect the occurrence of perineal wound complications after APR for rectal cancer. The nomogram model constructed in this study is helpful for predicting the probability of clinically significant complications after APR.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the risk factors of postoperative perineal wound complications after abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer.
METHODSThe databases of Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, VIP and WANFANG were searched for the studies of abdominoperineal resection up to October 2016. The quality of the included studies was assessed by using "Cochrane collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias" and "the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale". The meta-analyses were performed with Review Manager 4.3 software.
RESULTSEight randomized controlled trials and 33 non-randomized controlled trials with 15 287 patients were enrolled. Meta-analyses showed that neoadjuvant radiotherapy (OR=2.55, 95%CI: 1.66 to 3.93, P<0.01) and obesity (OR=2.12, 95%CI: 1.05 to 4.26, P=0.04) significantly increased the morbidity of perineal wound complication after abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer; omentoplasty(OR=0.30, 95%CI: 0.14 to 0.67, P=0.003), presacral space clysis (OR=0.11, 95%CI: 0.01 to 0.94, P=0.04), abdominal drainage (OR=0.36, 95%CI: 0.21 to 0.63, P<0.01), perineal skin drainage(OR=41.72, 95%CI: 2.39 to 727.90, P=0.01) and local application of antibiotics (OR=0.17,95%CI: 0.07 to 0.40, P<0.01) significantly decreased the morbidity of perineal wound complication; however, extralevator abdominoperineal excision (OR=0.88, 95%CI: 0.57 to 1.35, P=0.56), laparoscopic procedure (OR=1.02, 95%CI: 0.47 to 2.21, P=0.96), biologic mesh reconstruction (OR=1.81, 95%CI: 0.95 to 3.46, P=0.07), myocutaneous flap reconstruction (OR=1.32, 95%CI: 0.18 to 9.91, P=0.79) and negative pressure drainage(OR=0.69, 95%CI: 0.35 to 1.34, P=0.27) had no influence on the healing of perineal wound.
CONCLUSIONSNumerous factors can affect the occurrence of perineal wound complication after abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer. Due to the limitations of enrolled studies, multicenter large scale and high-quality randomized controlled trials are required to validate the current results.
