Objective:To systematically evaluate the current financing status of Beijing's urban and rural residents'basic medical insurance,analyze equity disparities among different groups under the existing flat-rate financing policy.By simulating the equity changes of various financing schemes with different contribution rates,this study aims to provide foundations for advancing medical insurance financing system reform.Methods:Based on the per capita disposable income and number of insured residents in Beijing's 16 districts from 2018 to 2023,we separately calculated the Gini coefficient,concentration index,and Kakwani index,along with their changes before and after financing adjustments,to assess the funding burden among different insured groups.Using the geometric mean method,we projected per capita disposable income and insured populations for each district in Beijing from 2024 to 2035,simulating various financing schemes under different premium rate systems.Results:From 2018 to 2023,the Gini coefficient of net income after financing consistently exceeded that of original income before financing.The concentration index remained positive and showed an upward trend,while the Kakwani index was negative for all periods.The Gini coefficient after financing slightly decreased for the elderly and working populations with fiscal subsidy support,whereas it remained higher than that for students and children.Under the simulated differentiated rate system,the post-funding Gini coefficient for 2024-2035 was lower than the original value,and the Kakwani index was positive.Conclusions:The current fixed-amount financing mechanism for urban and rural residents'basic medical insurance exhibits regressive characteristics and insufficient fairness,with disparities in equity among different insured groups.It is necessary to establish differentiated financing standards based on differential rates,particularly implementing a financing mechanism with dynamic adjustments according to regional and group income levels,to enhance the fairness of financing for urban and rural residents'basic medical insurance.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical characteristics and diagnosis and treatment experiences in dealing with non-severe Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.METHODS The clinical data were collected from 34 patients who were diagnosed with non-severe C.psittaci pneumonia through quantitative polymerase chain reactiong(qPCR)for sputum in fever clinic of the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Mar.2023 to Mar.2024 and were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes were evaluated.RESULTS The average age of the patients was(44.82±13.74)years old,the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.83;all of the patients had fever;major symptoms were cough(70.59％),pharyngodynia(44.12％),and flu-like symptoms(41.18％);82.35％of the patients had the history of contact with poultry.The C-reactive pro-tein(CRP)level,interleukin-6(IL-6),systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI)and aggregate index of sys-temic inflammation(AISI)were higher among the patients aged no less than 44 years old than among the patients less than 44 years old(P＜0.05);the percentage of lymphocytes of the patients aged no less than 44 years old was lower than that of the patients aged less than 44 years old(P＜0.05).As for the imaging findings,73.53％of the patients had consolidation shadows,26.47％had ground-glass opacities,and 32.35％involved both lungs.All of the patients received quinolones or tetracyclines for treatment of 7-14 days and all symptoms relieved.CT reexami-nated 1 month after the treatment showed that 55.88％of the cases had complete absorption of pulmonary infec-tious lesions,and 35.29％had partial absorption.CONCLUSIONS The patients with non-severe Chlamydia psitta-ci pneumonia are characterized by the history of contact with poultry,fever complicated with respiratory tract symptoms,rise of inflammatory markers(more significant among patients of advanced age)and lower lobe con-solidation shadow/ground-glass opacities.Early identification and standardized treatment may facilitate the favora-ble treatment outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the changes of cerebral blood flow before and after transfusion in neonates with anemia,and analyze the related influencing factors of neonatal middle cerebral artery blood flow.Methods:A total of 39 neonates with anemia who were hospitalized in the Department of Neonatology of Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital from October 2021 to March 2023 and received blood transfusion treatment were selected.Basic data were collected.Transcranial Doppler ultrasound was used to collect peak systolic flow velocity(Vs),end-diastolic flow velocity(Vd)and vascular resistance index(RI)of left and right middle cerebral artery(MCA).To analyze the relationship between neonatal anemia and middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity.To explore the effects of anemia and blood transfusion on middle cerebral artery blood flow,and analyze the related factors of middle cerebral artery blood flow.Results:A total of 39 neonates were included in this study,and the Vs on both the left and right sides of the middle cerebral artery after transfusion was lower than that before transfusion[Vs on the left side after transfusion was(44.7±16.7)cm/s compared with that before transfusion(45.9±19.2)cm/s,Vs on the right side after transfusion:(49.2±18.4)cm/s Vs(52.4±25.1)cm/s before transfusion];The mean blood pressure,Vd and RI after transfusion were all higher than those before transfusion[mean pressure(after transfusion/before transfusion):(41.7±6.3)mmHg ratio(40.9±6.9)mmHg],[Vd after transfusion on the left side:(11.7±6.6)cm/s compared with that before transfusion(10.9±5.0)cm/s,Vd after transfusion on the right side:(10.5±4.0)cm/s compared with(9.6±5.5)cm/s],[left post-transfusion RI:(0.75±0.08)compared with pre-transfusion RI:(0.74±0.09),right post-transfusion RI:(0.77±0.08)compared with(0.70±0.86)before transfusion],but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05);Through further correlation analysis,gestational age at birth,standard deviation of hemoglobin and normal value before and after transfusion,mean blood pressure,birth weight and blood flow of middle cerebral artery were respectively correlated,and it was found that gestational age was positively correlated with MCA Vd before transfusion,the standard deviation of hemoglobin before transfusion was negatively correlated with MCA on the left and right side,and the mean blood pressure was positively correlated with MCA blood flow.Birth weight was positively correlated with right side Vd of MCA after transfusion.Conclusion:Blood transfusion in anemic neonates can affect blood flow velocity in middle cerebral artery.The blood flow velocity of middle cerebral artery was correlated with gestational age,anemia degree,mean blood pressure and birth weight.

Purpose Discover new prostate cancer-related single nucleotide variants.Methods Tissue wax blocks from 21 prostate cancer patients who underwent radical surgery and had relatively complete clinical data were collected for somatic mutation detection to analyze new mutated genes associated with prostate cancer.The levels of cor-responding proteins in the urine of prostate cancer patients were tested according to the results of the selected genes.Results All 21 prostate cancer patients showed obvious somatic mutations,and the mutation types were dominated by C＞T and G＞A.The number of somatic mutations was 521,of which 27 genes had high mutation proportions(≥2 ca-ses),including ZSWIM6(5/21),FOXA1(4/21),SPTA1(2/21),FAM47C(2/21),FLG2(2/21),PRSS3(2/21),TP53(2/21),FLG(2/21),UBR4(2/21),and the mutations occurring in ZSWIM6 were all deletion muta-tions,and the mutations occurring in FOXA1 were missense mutations,deletion mutations,and deletion insertion mu-tations.The urinary levels of UPF1,SPTA1,and IDH1 proteins of the 10 prostate cancer patients were significantly different than those of the healthy controls.Correlation analysis showed that FOXA1 was positively correlated with UBR4(r=0.669,P=0.001),SPTA1 was positively correlated with FLG2(r=1.000,P＜0.001),FAM47C was positively correlated with PRSS3(r=1.000,P＜0.001),and there was a significant positive correlation between TP53 and FLG(r=1.000,P＜0.001).ZSWIM6 and FOXA1 were not correlated with biochemical recurrence.SP-TA1 mutation affected progression-free survival(PFS)[(66.0±0)months vs(30.0±7.8)months,P=0.008].FAM47C was positively correlated with PFS[(66.0±0)months vs(19.0±0)months,P＜0.001].ZNF676 was correlated with PFS[(66.0±0)months vs(26.0±5.0)months,P=0.008].FLG2 was correlated with PFS[(66.0±0)months vs(30.0±7.8)months,P=0.008].PRSS3 was correlated with PFS[(66.0±0)months vs(19.0±0)months,P＜0.001].Conclusion All 21 prostate cancer patients harbored somatic mutations,including ZSWIM6(5/21)and FOXA1(4/21)mutations.SPTA1,FAM47C,ZNF676,FLG2,and PRSS3 may be associated with prognosis.

Objective To construct the K64 capsule depolymerase recombinant protein,Dep44,and investigate its potential application against carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)infections.Methods The de-polymerase-encoding phage vB_Kpn_HF1013(GenBank:PP803128)was isolated and genomically analyzed to screen for candidate depolymerases.The recombinant protein Dep44 was constructed and functionally verified for depolymerase activity.Dep44 sensitive range was validated and Dep44 antimicrobial activity was assessed by bio-film disruption and serum sterilization assays.Results The tail spike protein of phage vB_Kpn_HF1013 exhibited depolymerase activity and recombinant protein Dep44 specifically degraded K64 CRKP capsule.Biofilm eradication assays demonstrated that recombinant Dep44 at both 2 μg/mL and 10 μg/mL significantly disrupted bacterial bio-films relative to the control.Serum bactericidal assays showed that Dep44 exhibited synergistic activity with serum,dependent on the complement system,as Dep44 alone lacked bactericidal properties.Conclusion Dep44 effec-tively targets and degrades K64 CRKP capsule,disrupts biofilms,and enhances serum bactericidal activity,high-lighting its potential for managing K64 CRKP infections and clearing biofilms from medical devices.

Objective:To analyze the synergistic relationship between financing and payment systems in China's urban employee basic medical insurance under the background of aging,providing decision-making basis for promoting coordinated development of these two systems.Methods:Based on statistical yearbook data from medical security systems,the Delphi method was employed to identify collaborative analysis indicators for urban employee medical insurance financing and payment under the aging population context.A collaborative theory-based model was constructed to measure the coordination degree of China's urban employee medical insurance financing and payment composite system,while simultaneously assessing the orderliness of the financing and payment system and the coordination degree of the composite system.Results:The order degree of the financing system ranged from 0.324 in 2019 to 0.517 in 2023;the order degree of the payment system ranged from 0.454 in 2019 to 0.517 in 2023;the synergy degree of both systems reached-0.084 in 2023.Conclusions:Influenced by aging,the development speed and scale of China's urban employee basic medical insurance financing system and payment system are asynchronous,with the payment system being more affected than the financing system,resulting in a non-coordinated and disordered development state of the composite financing-payment system.

Objective To explore the impact of suture configuration and fixation type on the biome-chanical strength of rotator cuff repair,using a factorial design study.Methods Sixteen fresh-frozen porcine shoulder samples were randomized into an anchorless double-row suture bridge transosseous su-tures(DS)group,an anchored double-row suture bridge transosseous-equivalent(DE)group,an an-chorless X-BOX construct transosseous sutures(XS)group,and an anchored X-BOX construct transos-seous-equivalent(XE)group,each of four,according to suture configuration(double-row suture bridge,traditional X-BOX construct)and fixation type(suture anchors,transosseous sutures).Then,their fatigue resistance(first-cycle excursion,gap length difference ratio,and the percentage of ex-posed footprints)and the failure strength(the maximum failure load and the re-tear type)were mea-sured using a biomechanical material testing machine.Results Different suture configurations affected failure strength(F=39.559,P<0.001),with the double-row suture bridge groups(693.07±58.35 N,746.76±138.57 N)showing significantly higher failure strength,compared to the traditional X-BOX groups(462.90±18.91 N,421.43±90.76 N).However,the fixation type did not significantly im-pact failure strength(F=1.161,P=0.302).Moreover,the suture configuration influenced the gap differ-ence ratio(F=7.781,P=0.016),but had no significant correlation with other fatigue resistance indica-tors(P>0.05).Meanwhile,failure strength and fatigue resistance were not correlated with fixation type,and the interaction between suture and fixation type(P>0.05).The incidence of failure types for the four suture configurations was as follows:Type I tendon tear:XS>XE>DS=DE;type II tendon tear:DS>XE>XS=DE;fixing material-related failure:DE>DS=XE=XS.Conclusion The failure strength and gap formation ratio in rotator cuff repair under fatigue loading are influenced by suture configuration,whereas no significant association has been observed with respect to fixation method,whether using transosseous sutures or suture anchors.
