OBJECTIVE To investigate a dynamic monitoring of drug consumption (DMDC) model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test, aiming to provide scientific evidence for the efficient and macroscopic monitoring of drug use. METHODS A monitoring list of key outpatient drugs was established based on the top 20% of drugs ranked by sales volume in the outpatient pharmacy in October 2024. A DMDC model based on the Mann-Kendall trend test was constructed using the monthly usage data of key outpatient drugs from November 2021 to October 2024, aiming to eliminate the impact of seasonal fluctuations and analyze the temporal trends in drug consumption. Taking mucolytic expectorants, triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis, and single-agent hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors as examples, the monitoring effectiveness of the DMDC model was demonstrated, and its performance was compared with that achieved by the traditional sequential growth rate ranking method. RESULTS A total of 215 drug varieties were included in the monitoring list, and DMDC models were successfully established for all of them. Among these, 119 showed a significant increasing trend (P<0.05, S′>0). The model successfully monitored the monthly consumption of mucolytic expectorants, triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis, and single- agent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. The precision and recall rates of the DMDC model for identifying abnormal drug use were 60.7% and 85.0%, respectively, both significantly higher than those of the sequential growth rate ranking method (8.3% and 15.0%, respectively) (χ2=20.114, P<0.001; χ2=19.600, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS DMDC model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test can effectively identify long-term trends in drug consumption, eliminate seasonal interference, enhance monitoring accuracy and management efficiency, and is suitable for the dynamic monitoring of drug consumption.

OBJECTIVE To provide scientific evidence and practical references for refined antimicrobial stewardship in multi- branch medical institutions. METHODS Data of antibiotic use density (AUD) of inpatients as well as physician-level case mix index (CMI) were collected from the Liji Road main campus and Panlongcheng branch campus of our hospital from August 2023 to March 2026. The two-factor decomposition method was adopted to decompose total AUD variation into a level effect and structural effect. Grey relational analysis (GRA) was performed to quantify the correlation degree between ward CMI, physician CMI and physician AUD, so as to identify wards and physicians requiring targeted key intervention in different campuses. A refined antimicrobial management framework for multi-branch hospitals was constructed and implemented based on the above analytical results. An interrupted time series (ITS) model incorporating seasonal dummy variables was applied. The research period was divided into pre-intervention stage (August 2023 to March 2024) and post-intervention stage (April 2024 to March 2026). The temporal changing trends of AUD in two campuses were compared to evaluate management efficacy. RESULTS Driving factors for AUD variation presented significant heterogeneity between the two campuses. AUD variation in the main campus was dominated by level effect, while AUD variation in the branch campus was jointly affected by structural effect and level effect. The grey relational degrees of ward CMI and physician CMI with physician AUD were 0.901 and 0.882, respectively. After refined management implementation, AUD decreased by 7.48 DDDs/(100 bed·days) and 20.54 DDDs/(100 bed·days) in the main campus and branch campus, respectively; the rising trends of AUD in both campuses reversed to declining trends after intervention. CONCLUSIONS Driving factors of AUD variation under the multi-branch hospital model show obvious inter-campus heterogeneity. CMI is highly correlated with AUD. The refined management system developed via AUD attribution decomposition and CMI correlation analysis matches the differentiated clinical characteristics of multi- branch hospitals and effectively improves the precision of antimicrobial stewardship.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic combined with colonoscopic transanal total mesorectal resection (laparoscopic combined with colonoscopic taTME) in the treatment of rectal cancer.Methods:The descriptive case series analysis method was adopted. From October 2023 to February 2024, the Department of Colorectal Surgery of Li Huili Hospital, Ningbo Medical Center, performed laparoscopic combined with colonoscopic taTME on 8 patients with rectal cancer. Among the 8 patients, there were 5 males and 3 females, aged from 56 to 74 years old, with a body mass index (BMI) of 20.3-26.7 kg/m2. All patients were pathologically diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma. The long diameter of the tumors was 2.0-6.5 cm, the lower edge of the tumors was 3-5 cm away from the anal verge. In terms of tumor TNM staging, there were 2 cases in stage I, 3 cases in stage II, and 3 cases in stage III. The surgical conditions, postoperative curative effects, and the occurrence of complications were observed.Results:All 8 patients successfully completed laparoscopic combined with colonscopic taTME, and there was no conversion to laparotomy. The operative time was 260 to 335 minutes, the intraoperative blood loss was 50 to 100 milliliters, and the distance from the tumor to the anal margin was 0.8 to 2.0 centimeters. All patients in the group underwent protective end ileostomy, and none of them underwent permanent enterostomy. Specimens were removed from the right lower abdomen in 7 cases and through the anus in 1 case. There was no residual cancer cells at the pathological resection margins postoperatively. All patients ambulated on the first day after the operation, and began to eat on the 2nd to 3rd day after the operation. Anastomotic leakage occurred in 1 patient after the operation, and the condition improved after conservative treatment. The length of hospital stay was 21 days. The other 7 patients were discharged from the hospital 8 to 12 days after the operation. Two patients completed the ileostomy closure surgery 3 months after the operation and recovered well. The patients were followed up until April 2024, during which there were no cases of tumor recurrence or death.Conclusion:For appropriate cases, laparoscopic combined with colonoscopic taTME is safe and feasible.

Objective To explore the predictive value of the preoperative C-reactive protein-albumin-lymphocyte ratio(CALLY index)for short-term prognosis in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy.Methods The clinical data of 228 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy were retrospectively analyzed.Based on follow-up results,patients were divided into the good prognosis group(n=205)and the poor prognosis group(n=23).The differences in clinical characteristics and laboratory test results between the two groups were compared.Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the impact of CALLY index on poor prognosis in patients.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to determine the clinical value and optimal cutoff value of CALLY index in predicting poor prognosis of patients.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the difference in disease-free survival(DFS)between patients with different CALLY index levels.Results After a follow-up of 3 to 53 months(median follow-up of 36 months),23 patients developed poor prognosis(including 3 deaths and 20 recurrences or metastases).Compared with the good prognosis group,tumors in the poor prognosis group were larger,the proportion of poorly differentiated tumors was higher and white blood cell count(WBC),neutrophil count(NEU),C-reactive protein(CRP)were higher,and lymphocyte(LYM),albumin(ALB),prealbumin,total cholesterol(TC)and CALLY indexl were lower.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the elevated CALLY index(HR=0.306,95%CI:0.102-0.921,P=0.035)was an independent protective factor for poor prognosis,while larger tumors and poorly differentiated tumors were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve for predicting poor prognosis in gastric cancer patients undergoing radical gastrectomy was 0.862(95%CI:0.810-0.904),with a sensitivity of 95.65%,specificity of 69.76%,and an optimal cutoff value of 2.21.Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with a CALLY index>2.21 had a longer disease-free survival than those with a CALLY index≤2.21(mean DFS:48 months vs.42 months,Log-rank χ2=4.123,P=0.042).Conclusion The preoperative CALLY index is a simple,effective and easily accessible predictor for predicting short-term prognosis in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy.A high CALLY index indicates a better prognosis of patient.
