Medical technology proficiency is a key indicator of a municipal-level hospital′s core competitiveness. To continuously enhance its medical capabilities, a tertiary prefecture-level hospital in Zhejiang province launched the " 100 high-tech projects" in 2010, designating it as a priority technical development program. The hospital established a hospital-level knowledge management team in 2020 to build a knowledge management system for high-tech projects. This system fostered a virtuous cycle of synergistic advancement in medical technology innovation, knowledge management, and talent development by extracting both explicit and tacit knowledge from the hospital′s high-tech projects, absorbing tacit knowledge from benchmark hospitals′ relevant technologies, and establishing a knowledge-sharing platform. From January 2021 to October 2024, the hospital secured approval for 9 national and provincial-level clinical key specialties, established 7 municipal key technological innovation teams, and enrolled 46 provincial/municipal-level talents. A the same time, talent attrition remained low. The implementation of the knowledge management system to empower high-tech development had achieved phased results. This practice could provide references for other hospitals to enhance their medical technology capabilities.

Human amnion (hAM), as a biomaterial, has made significant progress in the field of ophthalmology, particularly in the treatment of retinal diseases. hAM possesses biological properties such as promoting tissue repair, inhibiting inflammation and neovascularization, and reducing fibrosis, which have led to its promising clinical outcomes in treating macular holes, retinal detachment, proliferative vitreoretinopathy, optic disc depression-related macular detachment, and age-related macular degeneration. The application of hAM can improve surgical success rates and promote vision recovery, with no significant rejection reactions observed due to its low immunogenicity. Nevertheless, the use of hAM still faces challenges in optimizing preparation and storage techniques, enhancing therapeutic efficacy, and reducing the risk of infectious disease transmission. Future research should focus on addressing these issues to further promote the application of hAM in retinal disease treatment and enhance its effectiveness.

Objective:To explore the association between big five personality traits, emotional coping information acquisition ability, and depressive symptoms among Chinese adults, providing theoretical support for behavioral intervention strategies targeting individuals with different personality traits and depressive symptoms.Methods:Data were obtained from the Psychology and Behavior Investigation of Chinese Residents (PBICR), a cross-sectional survey conducted from July to September 2021 across 120 cities in China, with 9 966 adults involved. The big five inventory-10 (BFI-10) and patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to assess personality traits and depressive symptoms, respectively. Emotional coping information acquisition ability was evaluated using a four-point Likert scale. Multivariable binary Logistic regression analysis was performed using R 4.3.1 software to examine associations among big five personality, emotion-coping information acquisition ability, and depressive symptoms.Results:Among the 9 966 surveyed adults, 1 213 individuals(12.2%) who met the PHQ-9 criteria were assessed to have positive depressive symptoms. Difficulties in acquiring emotional coping information were reported by 1 934 individuals(19.4%). The scores of extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism, openness and conscientiousness in big five personality traits were 6.26±1.58, 7.00±1.49, 6.26±1.49, 6.41±1.52 and 6.91±1.60, respectively. Inter-group comparisons reported statistically significant differences in the five major personality traits between the negative and positive group of depressive symptoms ( χ2=215.39, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that poor emotional coping information acquisition ability ( B=0.304, OR(95% CI)=1.36(1.15-1.59)) and dominant traits of extraversion ( B=0.597, OR(95% CI)=1.82(1.55-2.13)) or openness ( B=0.321, OR(95% CI)=1.38(1.10-1.72)) were significant risk factors for depression. Conclusions:Chinese adults with big five personality mainly presented as extroversion and openness traits, and with poor emotional coping and information acquisition abilities might be associated with depressive symptoms.
