Objective: To evaluate the equity of human resource allocation in centers for disease control and prevention (CDCs) in China, so as to provide insights into optimizing human resource and promoting the high-quality development of CDCs. Methods: The number, age, educational level and professional title of CDCs personnel from 2017 to 2021 were collected from China Health Statistics Yearbook and China Statistical Yearbook. General information of human resource in CDCs across different provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) was described, and the equity of human resource allocation was assessed using agglomeration degree. Results: The number of personnel in CDCs was 190 730 in 2017, and it began to increase from 2020, reaching 209 550 in 2021, with an average annual growth rate of 2.47%. The staffing gap decreased from 52 534 to 37 655. The proportion of personnel aged 55 years and older increased from 10.74% to 16.69%, the proportion of personnel with a bachelor's degree or above increased from 36.50% to 47.80%, the proportion of personnel with senior professional titles increased from 9.75% to 13.31%, and the number of personnel per 10 000 permanent residents increased from 1.36 to 1.48. Agglomeration degree analysis indicated that the equity of human resource allocation in terms of both geography and population was relatively good among the CDCs of 12 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) including Beijing, Tianjin and Liaoning; the equity of human resource allocation was relatively good in terms of geography and was relatively poor in terms of population among 11 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) including Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang; the equity of human resource allocation was relatively poor in terms of geography and was relatively good in terms of population among the CDCs of 8 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) including Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang and Hainan. Conclusions Although there was an increase in the number of personnel in CDCs from 2017 to 2021, the growth rate was low. There were differences in the equity of human resource allocation among provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities), with a relative shortage of human resource in CDCs in the east area.

Objective: To analyze the disease burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and changes in its risk factors among residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021, so as to identify key priorities for COPD prevention and control. Methods: Data on COPD mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) for residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021 were collected from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database. Standardized mortality and standardized DALY rate were calculated using the GBD 2021 world population standard structure. Premature mortality was computed via the life table method. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was applied to analyze trends in COPD mortality, DALY rate, and premature mortality. Changes in deaths of COPD risk factors were evaluated using population attributable fraction (PAF). Results: From 1990 to 2021, the standardized COPD mortality in Zhejiang Province decreased from 272.40/100 000 to 70.56/100 000 (AAPC=-4.395%), and the standardized DALY rate declined from 4 167.37/100 000 to 1 071.89/100 000 (AAPC=-4.396%). Similar downward trends were observed in both males (AAPC=-3.933%, -4.173%) and females (AAPC=-4.785%, -4.480%), all P<0.05. Crude mortality and DALY rates increased with age, and the crude mortality and DALY rates of various age groups in Zhejiang Province showed decreasing trends from 1990 to 2021 (all P<0.05). The premature mortality declined from 4.37% to 0.60% from 1990 to 2021 (AAPC=- 6.206%), with consistent trends across males and females (AAPC=- 6.144%, - 6.379%, all P<0.05). From 1990 to 2021, particulate matter pollution showed the largest reduction in PAF (- 56.76%), while ambient ozone pollution had the largest increase (103.07%) in Zhejiang Province. By 2021, smoking became the leading risk factor for deaths of COPD (PAF=43.32%). Conclusions The standardized mortality, standardized DALY rate, and premature mortality for COPD show consistent declining trends in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021. However, risk factors such as smoking and ambient ozone pollution require intensified focus to further reduce disease burden of COPD.

A patient with osteomyelitis who developed a rash after previous treatment with vancomycin was admitted to the hospital due to a recurrence of osteomyelitis.After admission,the orthopedic doctor intended to perform a"calcium sulfate vancomycin implantation surgery"on him.Clinical pharmacist identified the patient's previous rash reaction as red man syndrome(RMS)rather than genuine drug allergy.At the same time,in response to the clinical doubt of whether patients with previous RMS can undergo"calcium sulfate vancomycin implantation surgery",clinical pharmacists reviewed and analyzed the literature,and suggested that the surgery can continue under close monitoring.The patient did not experience RMS or allergic reactions after surgery,and the condition improved.In this paper,the clinical pharmacists started with the identification of RMS and rapid allergic reactions,reviewed the literature on the local use of vancomycin and the risk of RMS,and provide suggestions for subsequent treatment,and also provide references for clinical safe drug use and treatment of similar diseases.

The aim of this study is to explore the protective mechanism of Jiedu Tongluo Tiaogan decoction(JTTD)on islet cells of type 2 diabetic SD rats based on autophagy regulation.8-week-old SD male mice were fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks and then induced with a single intraper-itoneal injection of streptozotocin 40 mg/kg.The Chinese medicine group was given the low(1.5 g·kg-1·d-1),medium(4.5 g·kg-1·d-1)and high(13.5 g·kg-1·d-1)doses of JTTD,and the western medicine group was given metformin hydrochloride(0.15 g·kg-1·d-1).Fasting blood glucose(FBG),glycated serum protein(GSP),triglycerides(TG),cholesterol(CHO),high-densi-ty lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),free fat(FFA)were measured.Moreover,the fasting serum insulin was determined by ELISA method and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)was calculated,glucose tolerance test was performed.The pancreatic tissues of SD mice were stained with HE,and the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3 were checked by immunohistochemistry,the expression of Beclin-1,LC3 and P62 was determined by Western blot,the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3RNA was determined by RT-PCR.The results showed that both the JTTD group and metformin hydrochloride group had better hypoglycemic and lipid-lowering effects(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).HE staining of pancreatic tissues showed that disorganized structure,unclear boundary,irregular arrangement,less cytoplasm,and lighter cytoplasmic staining or vacuo-lation in the islets in the JTTD group and metformin hydrochloride group were improved.In terms of autophagy regulation,immunohistochemistry,Western blot and RT-PCR,compared with the model group,the expression of Beclin-1 and LC3 mRNA was significantly increased(P＜0.01)and the level of p62 protein was decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01)in the JTTD group and metformin hydrochloride group.In conclusion,the JTTD can alleviate the trend of weight loss and improve ex-cessive drinking effectively in type 2 diabetic mellitus SD mice,as well as have better effects on im-proving glucose and lipid metabolism,moreover,it can alleviate the damage of pancreatic his-topathological structure and protect islet cells,which may be achieved by regulating the level of au-tophagy.

To summarize the nursing experience of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for a child with monocytopenia and mycobacterium infection syndrome complicated with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.The key aspects of nursing encompass the establishment of a multidisciplinary diagnostic and treatment team,as well as the enhancement of warehousing preparation.Fine nursing plays a pivotal role in infection prevention and control,while also promoting hematopoietic reconstruction.Vigilant monitoring of condition changes is crucial to proactively prevent cardiopulmonary failure.Moreover,an intensified management approach towards underlying diseases should be implemented alongside predictive nursing interventions.The utilization of precision medication plans allows for the observation of drug efficacy and adverse reactions.Narrative nursing serves as a foundation to alleviate the child's inner concems,while personalized follow-up plans ensure the continuity of high-quality care.With careful treatment and care,the child successfully underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.After 41 days post-transplantation,the child was discharged from the hospital after a successful recovery.The follow-up after a month showed good progress.

Mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS) is a condition indicated by biochemical testing for autonomous cortisol secretion, yet it lacks the classical signs of Cushing's Syndrome, such as moon face, buffalo hump, plethoric appearance, and purple striae. It is predominantly observed in middle-aged women and is commonly associated with adrenal incidentalomas. Due to the lack of significant clinical signs, the diagnosis of MACS primarily relies on hormonal testing. Patients with MACS often present with comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, and osteoporosis. For those with comorbid conditions, surgical treatment is the principal therapeutic approach. This article summarizes recent national and international guidelines and research to elucidate the updates to the diagnostic criteria for MACS, with a particular focus on the interpretation of the 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test results. It also details the treatment and follow-up strategies for MACS. Furthermore, the article highlights the urgent need for more extensive prospective studies to refine the existing diagnostic criteria and to develop surgical guidelines for a wider range of patients with MACS.

Objective To compare the efficacy of thoracoscopic surgery and closed thoracic drainage in the treatment of stage Ⅰand Ⅱ empyema.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 62 patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ empyema who were admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University from January 2018 to January 2023,and the patients were divided into drainage group(32 cases)and clearance group(30 cases)according to different types of surgery.The basic perioperative data and lung volume before and after surgery were compared between two groups.Results Both groups of patients successfully completed the operation.The duration of drain use,antibiotic use,fever,leukocyte recovery,albumin recovery and hospital stay in drainage group were significantly longer than those in clearance group(P＜0.05).The total complication rates of new atelectasis,air leakage,hypotension and arrhythmia in clearance group were significantly higher than those in drainage group,and the total complication rates of loculated effusion and persistent pulmonary infection were significantly lower than those in drainage group(P＜0.05).The overall prognosis of patients in clearance group was significantly better than that in drainage group(x2=7.398,P=0.007).One week after operation,the lung volume and the difference between before and after operation in clearance group were significantly higher than those in drainage group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with closed thoracic drainage,thoracoscopic surgery can significantly increase lung volume,improve recruitment,and achieve better recovery and prognosis.

Objective To explore the characteristic categories of presenteeism among ICU nurses and analyse the influencing factor.Methods A convenience sampling method was adopted to select 391 ICU nurses as the study subjects from four Grade IIIA hospitals in Zhejiang Province in May 2023.A general information questionnaire,the Stanford presenteeism scale-6,and Maslach burnout inventor were used in the survey.R language was used for latent profile analysis,and univariate analysis and multinomial logistic regression analysis were employed to explore the influencing factors of the latent profiles.Results A total of 391 ICU nurses completed the survey,with the score of presenteeism at 16.10±4.64,which was at medium level.The score of presenteeism was further divided into four latent classes:low work limitation-low work energy type accounted for 13.04%,high work limitation-moderate work energy type accounted for 24.55%,low work limitation-high work energy type accounted for 4.86%,moderate work limitation-moderate work energy type accounted for 57.55%.The influencing factors include average monthly income,the score of emotional exhaustion and personal fulfillment dimensions in job burnout(all P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of presenteeism among the ICU nurses has distinctive classification characteristics.Based on the identified influencing factors,nursing managers should provide individualised interventions to the ICU nurses with different latent profiles of characteristic categories to reduce the presenteeism among the nurses and thereby to improve the quality of nursing services.

Objective:To examine the satisfaction and teaching effectiveness of Health Statistics among students majoring in Public Utility Administration,and to provide valuable insights for optimizing current teaching practices and enhancing teaching effectiveness.Methods:A survey questionnaire,specifically designed for this study,was administered to 56 students of grade 2021 majoring in Public Utility Administration in our school.The questionnaire covered topics such as the difficulty of teaching content,learning satisfaction,and the Student Evaluation of Educational Quality(SEEQ)scale.Results:Non-parametric testing was considered the most difficult knowledge point,and male students found statistical inference of quantitative data was the most challenging,while female students found non-parametric testing was the most difficult.In terms of satisfaction,the highest score was obtained for pre-class review,while the lowest score was given to improving learning interest in Rain Classroom.The overall score for teaching effectiveness,as measured by SEEQ,was good across seven dimensions.Teaching enthusiasm received the highest score(4.40±0.43),while homework volume received the lowest score(3.23±0.37).With the exception of homework grading,satisfaction was positively correlated with most dimensions of teaching effectiveness evaluation.Conclusions:Despite perceiving the course as generally difficult,students expressed high satisfaction and overall positive evaluation of teaching effectiveness.Therefore,it is recommended to actively explore new teaching reforms to cultivate well-rounded applied talents for public utilities.

Objective To investigate the changes in cerebral hemodynamic parameters in patients with migraine and different grades of patent foramen ovale(PFO)using contrast-enhanced transcranial Doppler(cTCD)foaming test and contrast-enhanced transthoracic echocardiography(cTTE).Methods A total of 85 patients with migraine in our hospital were enrolled,and cTCD and cTTE were used in combination to determine whether a subject had right to left shunt(PFO-RLS)caused by PFO,which was graded according to the grading criteria(grades 0,Ⅰ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ).Meanwhile,TCD was used to observe the ultrasound parameters of the middle cerebral artery before and after Valsalva maneuver(VM),in-cluding peak systolic blood flow velocity(Vs),mean blood flow velocity(Vm),peak diastolic blood flow velocity(Vd),resistance index,and pulsatility index,and these ultrasound parameters were compared between grade 0 PFO-RLS and grade Ⅰ/Ⅱ/Ⅲ PFO-RLS.Results Among the 85 subjects,13 patients had migraine with grade 0 PFO-RLS,34 patients had migraine with grade I PFO-RLS,17 patients had migraine with grade Ⅱ PFO-RLS,and 21 patients had migraine with grade Ⅲ PFO-RLS.The results before VM showed that compared with the patients with migraine and grade 0 PFO-RLS,the patients with migraine and grade Ⅱ PFO-RLS had significant increases in Vs,Vm,and Vd(P<0.05),and the results after VM showed that compared with the patients with migraine and grade 0 PFO-RLS,the patients with migraine and grade Ⅲ PFO-RLS had significant increases in Vm and Vd(P<0.05).Conclusion There are different changing trends of cerebral blood flow in patients with migraine and different grades of PFO-RLS,and the characteristic changes in cere-bral blood flow can provide a certain clinical theoretical basis for the etiological diagnosis and treatment of patients with mi-graine.
