This report evaluates the preliminary outcomes of a "six-in-one" integrated cough and asthma center developed under a dual-contract physician model at the Changfeng Community Health Service Center in Putuo District, Shanghai. By combining the efforts of family doctors and medical specialists, the center integrated six core functions-clinical treatment, prevention, nursing, rehabilitation, pharmacy, and nutrition-into a seamless management system covering screening, diagnosis, therapy, and follow-up. Supported by specialist guidance and teaching clinics, the model significantly enhanced comprehensive respiratory disease management capabilities within the community setting. The initiative not only improved patient health outcomes but also strengthened multidisciplinary collaboration and resource efficiency, offering a replicable example for improving chronic disease management in primary care through integrated and coordinated service delivery.

Objective:In order to solve the problem that traditional theoretical examination has become more and more difficult to comprehensively and accurately evaluate the students' understanding, taking the endodontics course as the breakthrough, this study investigates the application of process evaluation method based on the "four-step" teaching method in the endodontics experimental courses. Meanwhile, the characteristics and feasibility and significance of the study are expounded.Methods:A total of 64 students were selected from two grades majoring in Stomatology in Medical School of Shenzhen University, and they were taught and assessed according to the new or old course designs. At the end of the course, comparisons of course assessment scores between the two grades were finished and the questionnaire survey was conducted to evaluate the teaching effect. SPSS 23.0 was used to perform the independent-samples t-test. Results:The analysis showed that 84.38%(27/32) of the students thought that the "four-step" teaching method helped with the learning of endodontics and significantly improved the scores of the experimental course; 90.62%(29/32) of the students thought it was helpful to stimulate self-learning skills. Compared with the students in the Class of 2018, the students in the Class of 2019 had significantly higher experimental examination scores [(87.29±4.13) vs. (84.07±1.77), P<0.01], while the scores of theoretical examination showed no significant difference between the two grades [(78.07±5.70) vs. (76.52±6.49)]. Conclusions:This teaching reform has provided the opportunities for practical operations, improved the quality of practical teaching and also stimulated the interest in independent learning of students. Moreover, it can accumulate experience for the reform of other dental experimental courses.

Objective To analyze the types and distribution of microbiome in intestinal and lung tissues of children with asthma, and to explore the correlation between microbiota changes and asthma. Methods From 2021 to 2023, a total of 28,939 children with asthma who visited Ezhou Central Hospital, Maternal and Child Health Hospital or Ezhou Egang Hospital were selected as the study subjects, and 2,000 healthy children who underwent outpatient physical examinations at these three hospitals during the same period were selected as the control group. The distribution and characteristics of intestinal and pulmonary microbiome in the two groups were analyzed by 16SrDNA sequencing. Logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the correlation between microbiota distribution and asthma occurrence. Results In the intestinal tissues of children with asthma compared to healthy children, the abundance of Bacteroidetes at the phylum level decreased, while the abundance of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria increased significantly (P<0.05), and the abundance of Prevotalle and Clostridium at the genus level increased significantly. In lung tissues of asthmatic children compared to health children, the abundance of Firmicutes at the phylum level decreased while the abundance of Proteobacteria increased significantly (P<0.05), and the abundance of Neisseria, Prevotella and Actinomyces at the genus level increased significantly. Binary logistic regression results showed that the abundances of Lactobacillus (OR=0.842, 95% CI: 0.533-0.947), Bacteroides fragilis (OR=0.649, 95%CI: 0.377-0.890), Bifidobacterium (OR=0.901, 95% CI: 0.633-0.994), and Parabacteroides distasonis (OR=0.547, 95% CI: 0.192-0.708) in the intestinal tissues were all protective factors for the asthma in children. In the lung tissue, the abundance of Neisseria (OR=2.140, 95% CI: 1.749-3.305) was a risk factor for the asthma in children, and Prevotella (OR=0.691, 95% CI: 0.491-0.926) was a protective factor for the asthma in children (P<0.05). Conclusion The dysbiosis of intestinal and pulmonary microbiome is closely related to the occurrence of asthma in children, and the detection of microbiota is of great significance for the diagnosis of childhood asthma.

Necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)is a common intestinal inflammatory disease in neonates, especially in premature infants, and still lack effective prevention and treatment methods.It has been reported that breast milk can effectively reduce the incidence of NEC.As an important component of breast milk, lipids provide key fat-soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids, and have the functions of maintaining intestinal function, promoting neurodevelopment and regulating immunity.Lipids are more abundant in premature breast milk.Therefore, its role in the prevention and treatment of common complications of premature infants, such as NEC, has been gradually paid attention to.This article reviews the progress of breast milk lipids in the prevention and treatment of neonatal NEC.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) combined with hyponatremia in Southern China and its risk factors for prognosis.Methods:The retrospective cohort study involved patients who met the diagnostic criteria of GBS from 18 upper first-class hospitals of 6 provinces/cities in southern China (south of Huaihe River) from January 1, 2013 to September 30, 2016. The clinical data of these patients were collected. According to serum sodium levels, they were divided into hyponatremia group (serum sodium concentration<135 mmol/L) and normal serum sodium group (serum sodium concentrations≥135 mmol/L). Based on Medical Research Coucil sum scores at nadir, these patients were divided into mild GBS group (>40), moderate GBS group (30-40), and severe GBS group (<30). Furthermore, according to the Hughes GBS disability scale (H-GBS-DS) scores at discharge, these GBS patients with hyponatremia were divided into favorable prognosis group (H-GBS-DS<3) and poor prognosis group (H-GBS-DS≥3). The incidence of hyponatremia in patients from the mild GBS group, moderate GBS group, and severe GBS group were compared. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the clinical risk factors for hyponatremia in GBS patients. The clinical data of hyponatremia patients from favorable prognosis group and poor prognosis group were compared; multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors for poor prognosis in GBS patients with hyponatremia.Results:(1) Among the 570 patients, 354 had mild GBS, 94 had moderate GBS, and 122 had severe GBS; 134 GBS patients were combined with hyponatremia, 436 GBS patients had normal serum sodium. The hyponatremia incidence in mild, moderate and severe GBS groups increased successively, ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that facial paralysis ( OR=1.979, 95%CI: 1.172-3.342, P=0.011), respiratory muscle paralysis ( OR=3.218, 95%CI: 1.611-6.428, P=0.001), secondary pulmonary infection ( OR=4.822, 95%CI: 2.835-8.201, P=0.000), severe GBS ( OR=2.611, 95%CI: 1.444-4.721, P=0.001) and length of hospital stay ( OR=1.029, 95%CI: 1.009-1.050, P=0.004) were risk factors for hyponatremia in GBS patients. (2) Among 134 GBS patients with hyponatremia, 80 had poor prognosis and 54 had favorable prognosis. As compared with the favorable group, the poor prognosis group had significantly lower proportion of patients with extraocular muscle paralysis, statistically higher proportions of patients with respiratory muscle paralysis and secondary pulmonary infection, significantly different severities of GBS, signficantly higher proportion of patients accepted intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and hormone treatments, statistically longer length of hospital stay ( P<0.05). Respiratory muscle paralysis ( OR=25.590, 95%CI: 9.433-69.423, P=0.000), moderate GBS ( OR=17.030, 95%CI: 8.441-34.361, P=0.000), and severe GBS ( OR=51.042, 95%CI: 24.596-105.926, P=0.000) were independent risk factors for poor short-term prognosis of GBS patients with hyponatremia. Conclusions:Severe GBS patients with facial paralysis, respiratory muscle palsy, secondary pulmonary infection, and long hospital stay trend to have hyponatremia. Hyponatremia patients with respiratory muscle paralysis and moderate/severe GBS have poor short-term prognosis.

Objective:To explore the short-term prognostic factors for Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in children.Methods:The clinical data of children with GBS from 24 hospitals in 10 provinces/municipalities/autonomous regions in southern China (south of Huaihe River) from January 1, 2013 to September 30, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The factors affecting the short-term prognoses of children were explored.Results:In these 78 children (50 males and 28 females), the average age was 9.53±5.44 years, and 19 were under 5 years old. Fifty children had history of prodromal events; 28 children had cranial nerve involvement, and 22 had autonomic nerve involvement. Five children needed assisted respiration, and one died during hospitalization. There was no statistically significant difference in percentage of children having poor short-term prognosis (scores of Hughes GBS disability scale≥3 at discharge) between children with different ages, children having different days from onset to admission, children with different clinical classifications or electrophysiological classifications, children with different treatment plans, children having presence or absence of prodromal events, children having presence or absence of cranial nerve involvement ( P>0.05). The proportion of children having poor short-term prognosis in children with autonomic nerve involvement was significantly higher than that of children without autonomic nerve involvement (31.8% vs. 10.7%, P<0.05). Conclusion:The short-term prognosis of children with autonomic nerve involvement is poor.

Objective To analyze the clinical features and validation of Brighton criteria in Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) patients from southern China.Methods The clinical data of hospitalized GBS patients from 69 hospitals of 14 provinces/cities in southern China,the area south of the Huaihe River,between 1 January 2013 and 30 September 2016,were collected and analyzed retrospectively,and patients were classified according to the Brighton criteria of case definition,ranging from a highest (defined as level one) to a lowest (level four) level of diagnostic certainty.Results A total of 1 358 GBS patients were collected,including 51 cases with cranial nerve variants,157 with Miler-Fisher syndrome and 1 150 with classic GBS characterized by flaccid weakness of limbs.Among 1 150 cases of classic GBS,49.57％ (570/1 150) patients had antecedent events,with respiratory infection predominated (71.23％,406/570);83.74％ (963/1 150) presented limb weakness at onset,99.21％ (1 124/1 133) reached the peak within four weeks,with a score of 3.15 ± 1.16 for Hughes Disability Scale;99.56％ (1 128/1 133)developed bilateral weakness and 95.39％ (1 097/1 150) manifested flexia or hyporeflexia;the cerebrospinal fluid showed albuminocytologic dissociation in 80.58％ (772/958) patients whose lumbar puncture was performed;demyelinating GBS accounted for 48.14％ (401/833) and axonal subtype 18.01％ (150/833) respectively in patients with findings of nerve conduction studies available.According to Brighton criteria,the patients were stratified as level one in 44.09％ (507/1 150),level two in 45.74％ (526/1 150),level three in 7.57％ (87/1 150) and level four in 2.61％ (30/1 150) of all the patients,and 69.55％ (507/729),28.67％ (209/729),0％ (0/729) and 1.78％ (13/729),respectively in the patients with complete data (n =729).Conclusions In southern China,demyelinating subtype of GBS is predominant,whereas the proportion of axonal subtype is remarkably lower than that in northern China.The Brighton criteria have a high sensitivity for the diagnosis of GBS in southern China,and examination of cerebrospinal fluid and electrodiagnostic studies are necessary for stratified diagnosis.
