Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics and influencing factors of ultra-long hospitalization in malignant tumor patients and to explore strategies to reduce the average length of stay and enhance the efficiency of medical re-source utilization.Methods Ultra-long hospitalization was defined as the 99th percentile of hospital stay duration(P99=31 days).Data from patients discharged with malignant tumors in a specialized cancer hospital in 2024 were collected.The distribu-tion characteristics and influencing factors were analyzed using chi-square tests and logistic stepwise regression.Results Among the 36 097 patients with malignant tumors,the average length of stay was 4.95 days,with 375 cases classified as ultra-long hospi-talizations,accounting for 1.04%.These patients were predominantly over 55 years old,with a higher proportion of males.Pa-tients with stage Ⅲ malignant tumors,primary tumors classified as T2~T3,and primary sites in the esophagus,pancreas,and maxillofacial regions had a higher incidence of ultra-long hospitalizations.Significant factors influencing ultra-long hospitalization included treatment modality,complications(OR=20.319),number of discharge diagnoses(OR=6.915),ICU transfers(OR=4.714),unplanned reoperations(OR=4.416),tumor type,extent,and stage.Conclusion Medical institutions are advised to address the influencing factors of ultra-long hospitalizations by optimizing diagnostic and treatment processes,enhan-cing quality control systems,establishing early warning mechanisms,and strengthening information systems.These measures aim to improve the standardization of malignant tumor diagnosis and treatment,ensuring patient safety.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for strengthening the standardized management of off-label drug use in cancer hospitals. METHODS The evaluation system for off-label drug use was established to standardize the application, approval, and filing process for off-label drug use in our hospital. The changes in off-label drug application quantity, proportion, disease category and drug category in our hospital were compared before (October 1st, 2021-September 30th, 2022) and after (October 1st, 2022- September 30th, 2023) the establishment of the evaluation system; drug items supported by high-level evidence screened by pharmacy department were analyzed statistically. RESULTS The number of off-label drug use applications in our hospital had gradually increased, from 306 pieces in the fourth quarter of 2021 to 3 828 pieces in the third quarter of 2023. In the year before the construction of the evaluation system, there were a total of 4 482 applications for off-label drug use, and in the year after the construction of the evaluation system, there were 11 840 applications for off-label drug use. After the construction of the evaluation system, the proportion of unregistered off-label drug use significantly decreased, compared to the same period last year (P<0.05). Among them, there were no unregistered applications for off-label drug use for digestive system tumors, head and neck tumors, and radioactive drugs; lymphoma, breast tumors,urogenital system tumors, cytotoxic drugs and new anti-tumor drugs all had a decrease of over 70% in unregistered off-label drug applications. Twenty-seven off-label drug use items related to 19 drugs supported by high-level evidence were screened by the pharmacy department of our hospital, among which 25 items were drug use beyond indication. CONCLUSIONS The establishment of off-label drug use evaluation system in cancer hospital is helpful to the rational use and refined management of clinical anti-tumor drugs.

Objective To establish an evaluation index system that can be used for medical quality assessment in clini-cal departments.Methods Based on literature analysis and key informant interview,the Delphi method was used to analyze the-importance and operability of the evaluation index system of medical quality in clinical departments.Results A clinical depart-ment medical quality assessment and evaluation system was established,consisting of 3 primary indicators,14 secondary indica-tors,and 24 tertiary indicators.Conclusion By building a medical quality assessment and evaluation index system in clinical departments,a simple,standardized,and highly operational management model is established for medical institutions to carry out medical quality management.It is conducive to directing clinical departments to focus on medical quality management,improving their medical quality awareness and management level,and promoting the high-quality development of public hospitals.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of exposure to atmospheric particulate matters on the outpatient visits of respiratory disorders in Jiaxing City,Zhejiang Province. MethodsDaily air pollutant monitoring data,meteorological data and outpatient visits of respiratory disorders in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2021 were collected.A generalized additive model was applied to evaluate the effect and laggeel effect of the concentrations of atmospheric particulates for outpatient visits of respiratory disorders after adjusting for secular trend, day-of-the-week effect, holiday effect, and meteorological variables. ResultsThe daily average concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, O3 and NO2 exceeded the standard, and the proportion of days exceeding the standard was 3.4%, 1.3%, 11.0% and 0.8%, respectively. Every 10 μg·m-3 increase in PM2.5 concentration showed the strongest effects on the daily outpatient visits of respiratory disorders, adult and childhood respiratory disorders all on lag07 with ER(95%CI) being 2.29%(1.35%‒3.24%), 2.31% (1.39%‒3.23%) and 2.65 % (1.36%‒3.96%), respectively. The maximum ER of outpatient visits for respiratory disorders in children was higher than that in adults. Every 10 μg·m-3 increase in PM10 concentration showed the strongest effects on the daily outpatient visits of respiratory disorders on lag07, adult respiratory disorders on lag06 and childhood respiratory disorders on lag07 with ER(95%CI) being 1.42% (0.87%‒1.96%), 1.49%(0.99%‒1.99%) and 1.61% (0.87%‒2.36%), respectively. The results of double-pollutant model showed that the effect of atmospheric particulate reduced after O3 was introduced into the model. ConclusionThere are a short-term effect and a laggeel effect of atmospheric particulate on the outpatient visits of respiratory disorders. It is necessary to strengthen the health protection of the respiratory system of the population, especially the children.

Objective To measure the expression of CD80 and CD86 in renal tissue of lupus nephritis (LN) and explore its mechanism in the development of LN.Methods Forty-nine patients with active LN and 9 patients with minor glomerular abnormalities tissues as controls were studied.The expression of CD80, and CD86 in renal tissues was detected by immunohistochemical methods.Results CD86 was expressed extensively in glomerulus, periglomerular area, tubular epithelial cells and peritubular interstitium, while CD80 was expressed only in tubular epithelial cells and peritubular interstitium.Moreover, the percentage of CD+80 and CD+86 cells in tubular epithelial cells and peritubular interstitium showed a tendency to increase with tubulointerstitial damage.The expression of CD80 and CD86 in renal tissue correlated with the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity index score, the degree of proteinuria, creatinine clearance and anti- dsDNA antibody.Conclusions This study shows that increased CD80 and CD86 expression with the progression of tubulointerstitial lesion might play an important role in the development of lupus nephropathy, and the tubulointerstitial expression of CD80 and CD86 could potentially serve as a surrogate marker of SLE disease activity.The co-stimulatory molecules CDg, and CD86 might play an important role in the pathogenesis of LN.
