Objective:This study aimed to analyze the focuses and shortcomings of the current medical achievements transformation policy, and to put forward references and suggestions for the subsequent formulation of medical science and technology innovation achievement transformation policy.Methods:46 policy texts were retrieved from Peking University Magic Treasure, Law Star, and other related websites of the State Council, the National Health Commission, the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and other relevant ministries and commissions, and the policy clauses were systematically quantitatively analyzed from three dimensions of supply, demand, and environment using policy tool theory.Results:The number of policy documents issued from 2015 to 2022 showed a fluctuating increase. There were 25 normative policies, accounting for 54.3%, and 21 guiding and operational policies, accounting for 45.7%. Environmental policies accounted for 74.9%, while demand-oriented policies accounted for 3.1% among the 587 codes.Conclusions:It is suggested to reduce the dependence on environment-based policy tools, optimize the distribution structure of sub-categories such as tax incentives and financial support, strengthen the support of supply-based policy tools to promote the high-quality development of the transformation of medical scientific and technological achievements, increase the driving role of demand-based policies to enhance the appropriate allocation of clinical demand, further optimize the policy system for the transformation of medical scientific and technological achievements, and strengthen the supporting measures of relevant special policies.

Economic development drives the increase of endogenous demand,and Internet medicine integrates regional medical resources,expanding the fairness of the public's access to medical and health services.However,it is also accompanied an ethical crisis with the development of technology,which requires continuous standardization and practice.Starting from the principle of medical fairness,this paper sorted out the main advantaged characteristics of the development of Internet medicine from the aspects of data fairness,cost equity,opportunity equity,and educational equity.The existing ethical problems of Internet medicine were explored including unfair protection of ethical review mechanisms,unfair data collection of scientific and technological subjects,unfair distribution of benefits and risks,and unfair utilization of Internet medical resources.It also proposed the governance paths of compacting the subject responsibility,perfecting review and supervision,improving the sharing mechanism,bridging the digital divide,strengthening risk prevention,protecting the citizens'rights and interests,strengthening education and guidance,and increasing grassroots investment.

Objective By studying the changes in the institutional distribution of curative care expenditure(CCE)of the elderly population before and after the comprehensive reform medical-pharmaceutical separation and linkage of medical consumption,it provided data reference for the next step of accurately optimizing the elderly patients flow.Methods A multi-stage stratified whole-group sampling survey was used to select the sample.A System of Health Accounts 2011 was used to calculate the CCE of elderly patients in medical institutions.Results The CCE of medical institutions for the elderly population in Beijing increased from 60.457 billion yuan to 797.54 billion yuan,with an average annual growth rate of 6.83%,the fastest growth rate of 24.04%for community-based health treat-ment center.The percentage of CCE in the community increased from 11.31%to 17.71%,while the percentage of CCE in tertiary hospitals decreased by 4.39 percentage points.The flow of CCE for outpatient patients was obviously opti-mized.Younger elderly outpatient patients are more willing to seek treatment in the community,but the flow di-rection of outpatient treatment for elderly patients is more optimized.The CCE fpr elderly outpatient patients with chronic diseases such as endocrine,nutritional and metabolic diseases and nervous system diseases have been substantially transferred to the community-based health center.Conclusion The reform has different impacts on the treatment of elderly patients with different genders,ages and diseases.It is necessary to strengthen the service capacity building of primary medical institutions,highlight the development characteristics of secondary hospitals,and accurately improve the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system for elderly patients.

Objective:The results of the three lipid detection systems were compared to analyze their influence on risk stratification and clinical treatment in lipid management, especially the target goal cut-off point determination, and to find ways to reduce the impact on target goal determination of various lipid measurement system.Methods:A total of 196 serum samples with triglyceride TG <4.5 mmol/L were collected from people undergoing physical examinations and in-patients in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from August to October 2022. Triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were directly detected with Hitachi-Woke (HW), Roche and Mindray detection systems, respectively. The non high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non HDL-C) was calculated by formula (TC-HDL-C) and LDL-C (F-LDL-C) was calculated by Friedewald formula, and results from various methodology were compared. The coefficient of variation ( CV) of these six indicators derived from the three detection systems were calculated to evaluate the consistency of the obtained results from different venders. In addition, the Pearson correlation coefficient was analyzed to evaluate the correlation of each indicator among different systems. According to the Chinese Guidelines for Blood Lipid Management, samples were divided into groups with LDL-C levels of <1.4, 1.4-<1.8, 1.8-<2.6, 2.6-<3.4 and ≥3.4 mmol/L according to the recommended LDL-C levels for different risk stratification levels. The sample size and percentage of LDL-C test results from different systems in the same group were counted to evaluate the impact of LDL-C differences between systems on clinical decision-making of blood lipid management. The correction factor was calculated through two methods: (1) The average deviation of LDL-C between systems was estimated by EP9-A3 method; (2) Multiple linear stepwise regression was used to establish the regression model of LDL-C difference and related indexes between systems. The two correction factors were used to correct the deviation of LDL-C value obtained from various systems, and Chi-square test was used to compare the difference of LDL-C grouping consistency rate before and after correction. Result:The average CV values of TG, TC, LDL-C, F-LDL-C, HDL-C, and non HDL-C among the three detection systems were 4.84%, 1.92%, 11.96%, 3.81%, 5.82% and 2.61%, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that when comparing the three systems in pairs, except for LDL-C derived from HW and Roche′s, and Mindray and Roche′s LDL-C ( R 2=0.938 and 0.947), the R 2 of other indicators were all greater than 0.97. The consistency rates of the three systems on LDL-C and F-LDL-C were 51.0% (100/196) and 90.8% (178/196), respectively, according to the risk stratification standard values and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). When comparing in pairs, the consistency rates of Roche and HW, Mindray and HW, Mindray and Roche system LDL-C grouping were 60.7% (119/196), 82.7% (162/196), and 54.1% (106/196), respectively. After adjusting for mean deviation, the group consistency rate of Roche and HW increased to 73.7%-79.4% ( P<0.05), and the group consistency rate of Roche and Mindray increased to 72.3%-79.0% ( P<0.05). After adjusting for difference regression model, the group consistency rate of Roche and HW increased to 82.5%-84.0%, and the group consistency rate of Roche and Mindray increased to 81.0%-89.2%. However, there was no significant change in the group consistency rate of Mindray and HW after adjusting for both correction methods ( P>0.05) .Conclusions:There are significant differences in LDL-C derived from different detection systems, and the consistency rate of grouping according to the lipid-lowering standard value is relatively low, which may affect clinical decision-making in lipid management. Adjusted by the correction factor, the consistency rate of grouping between Roche and HW, Roche and Mindray systems with large differences in LDL-C can be improved. Using the difference multiple linear regression model as a correction factor is superior to the average deviation.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a common respiratory critical illness with multiple causes, is associated with high mortality. The high degree of heterogeneity may be the reason why it is lack of highly specific and sensitive biological biomarkers. Therefore, it is an urgent need to explore biomarkers, perform phenotypic analysis and establish risk stratification model for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of ARDS. Endothelial cells specificity molecular-1 (ESM-1, endocan), is a soluble dermatan sulfate proteoglycan, and be involved in regulating biological behaviors such as cell proliferation, differentiation and migration. Numerous studies have confirmed that ESM-1 is closely related to inflammation, endothelial activation and dysfunction. However, the role of ESM-1 in the initiating and developing process of ARDS is still unclear. To provide a scientific basis for its clinical applications in ARDS, such as early prognosis assessment and timely prevent strategies, this paper focuses on the biological properties and the clinical value of ESM-1 as a potential biomarker for ARDS.

Objective:To compare the adjuvant chemotherapy project and survival prognosis of patients with stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ colon cancer in different age groups.Methods:In this retrospective study, the clinical data of 770 colon cancer patients undergoing radical resection were collected in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from Jan 2013 to Dec 2017. Patients were categorized into 3 groups based on age at onset of colon cancer: young group (18-49 years old, 112 cases), middle-aged group (50-64 years old, 351 cases) and older group (65-75 years old, 307 cases).Results:The young group had fewer complications, and the probability of cancer deposit, vascular tumor thrombus and nerve invasion was lower than the middle-aged and older group (12.5% vs. 15.4% vs. 14.3%; 7.1% vs. 9.4% vs. 8.5%; 2.7% vs .8.8% vs. 5.5%), but the probability of signet-ring cell carcinoma and mucinous adenocarcinoma was higher (5.4% vs. 1.4% vs. 1.6%; 14.3% vs. 11.4% vs. 13.4%), the proportion of patients with stage Ⅲ was greater (49.1% vs. 45.0% vs. 47.2%), and they were more willing to receive postoperative chemotherapy (83.9% vs. 81.8% vs. 60.3%). Among patients with stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ colon cancer, the young group and the middle-aged group were 3-4 times more likely to receive adjuvant chemotherapy than the elderly group [ OR=4.153 (95% CI:1.964-8.785), 2.906 (95% CI:1.845-4.579), 3.120 (95% CI:1.310-7.429), 3.588 (95% CI: 1.964-6.556)]. Of those patients who received chemotherapy, young and middle-aged patients had a higher percentage of multiagent regimen use than older patients [ OR=2.050 (95% CI:0.937-4.488), 2.750 (95% CI:1.536-4.923)]. Among patients treated with surgery alone, no significant differences were observed in survival among age groups. Among patients who received surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, a significantly better survival was observed for young and middle-aged patients with stage Ⅲ [ HR=0.284 (95% CI:0.127-0.632), 0.521 (95% CI:0.333-0.816)] than their older counterparts. Conclusions:Among patients with stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ colon cancer, young and middle-aged patients are more likely to undergo adjuvant chemotherapy and use more radical chemotherapy regimen. Young and middle-aged patients with stage Ⅱ colon cancer had overuse of chemotherapy, but did not result in expected survival improvement.

Classic hypothalamic-pituitary-end-organ feedback loops – the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPAA), hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroidal axis (HPTA), and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (HPGA) – are associated with the neuroendocrine and immune systems in major depressive disorder (MDD). Female patients with MDD present with evident neuroendocrine and immunological changes. Glucocorticoid, thyroid hormone, and reproductive steroid levels fluctuate with menstrual cycles, which might lead to glucocorticoid receptor resistance, impairment of triiodothyronine conversion, and sex hormone secretion disorders. In this review, we summarize the independent and interactive functions of these three axes in female MDD patients. The similar molecular structure of steroids implies an interrelationship between the hypothalamic-pituitary-end-organ axes and the competitive inhibitory effects at the receptor level, especially when considering the HPAA and HPGA.

Objective To observe the effect of signal transduction pathway of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) on Nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and pyroptosis in rats with acute lung injury induced (ALI) by phosgene. Methods The rats were randomly(random number) divided into 3 groups: air exposure control group, phosgene exposure group and PDTC group with phosgene exposure after 100 mg/kg pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) administration. The specimens of serum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were collected 6 h after exposure. Morphological changes were observed by HE staining. The expression of NLRP3 in the lung of three groups was detected by immunohistochemistry. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expressions of NF-κB p65, NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 mRNA in the lung tissue. NF-κB p65,NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 protein levels in the lung tissue were quantified by Western blot. The concentrations of IL-1β, IL-18 and IL-33 in the serum and BALF were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pyroptosis was observed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay (TUNEL). Results The model of phosgene-induced ALI was successfully established in rats. Morphological changes with inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in the lung tissues of phosgene group, in which NLRP3 positive cells also could be observed by immunohistochemical staining. The mRNA expressions and protein levels of NF-κB p65, NLRP3 and caspase-1 in lung tissues were significantly increased (P＜0.05) in phosgene group, compared with air control group. The mRNA expressions and protein levels of NF-κB p65,NLRP3 and caspase-1 in lung tissues were significantly decreased (P＜0.05) in PDTC group, compared with phosgene group. The IL-1β,IL-18 and IL-33 protein levels in serum and BALF were significantly increased (P＜0.05) in phosgene group, compared with air control group. The IL-1β,IL-18 and IL-33 protein levels in serum and BALF were significantly decreased (P＜0.05) in PDTC group, compared with phosgene group. TUNEL results showed that pyroptosis in the lung tissue obviously increased in phosgene group, while decreased in PDTC group. Conclusions NLRP3 inflammasome and lung cell pyroptosis were induced through NF-kB signal transduction pathway in rats with acute lung injury caused by phosgene inhalation. Blockade of NF-κB can alleviate acute lung injury by down-regulating the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome to inhibit pyroptosis.

Objective: To investigate the effects of methylprednisolone on NOD-like receptor hot protein domain-associated protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in phosgene-induced acute lung injury. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into four groups, 10 rats in Air group (inhalation of air of the same volume as the phosgene group) , 10 rats in Phosgene group (inhalation of 8.33 mg/L with 100% purity phosgene for 5 min) , 10 rats in Saline control group (inhalation of the same dose of phosgene and 2 mg/kg saline via tail vein injection one hour later) , 10 rats in MP group (inhalation of the same dose of phosgene and 2 mg/kg MP via tail vein injection one hour later) . The specimens of serum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were collected after 6h. Morphological changes were observed by HE staining. The expression of NLRP3 in the lung of four groups was detected by immunohistochemistry. NLRP3、ASC and caspase-1 expression in the lung tissue was quantified by Western blot. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to detect the expression of NLRP3、ASC and caspase-1 mRNA in the lung tissue. The concentrations of IL-1β、IL-18 and IL-33 in the serum and BALF were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: We successfully replicated the model of phosgene-induced ALI in rats. Morphological of HE staining after phosgene exposure to 6 h observed inflammatory cell infiltration in lung tissue in Phosgene group. Immunohistochemical staining results showed that there were many NLRP3 positive cells in lung tissue in Phosgene group. The levels of NLRP3, caspase-1 mRNA and protein expression in lung were significantly increased (P<0.05) in Phosgene group compared with Air group; compared with Phosgene group, The levels of NLRP3 and caspase-1 mRNA and protein expression in MP group were significantly decreased (P<0.05) . Compared with Air group, The levels IL-1β、IL-18 and IL-33 mRNA protein expression in the serum and BALF were significantly increased (P<0.05) in Phosgene group. Compared with Phosgene group, The levels IL-1β、IL-18 and IL-33 mRNA protein expression in the serum and BALF were significantly decreased (P<0.05) in MP group. Conclusion Methylprednisolone can effectively protect the rats from phosgene-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting the expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome and reducing the release of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) mediated by it.

Objective·To compare the clinical features between different subtype bipolar patients with first mania episode, and to contribute to early identification of bipolar disorder. Methods·This study was based on the database named as National Bipolar Mania Pathway Survey (BIPAS). From November 2012 to January 2013, bipolar patients from 26 mental health facilities in China were enrolled in current study. The clinical features were compared between mania patients of different subtypes, including hypomania (groupⅠ), mania without psychotic symptoms (groupⅡ), mania with psychotic symptoms (group Ⅲ) and mixed state (group Ⅳ). Results·There was significant difference in the percentage of clinical symptoms between different subtype bipolar patients with first mania episode, especially the mania and anxiety related symptoms. Group Ⅰ, Ⅲ , Ⅳ were further compared with groupⅡ, which was considered as the typical bipolar disorder. The results showed that the mania related symptoms was significantly higher in group Ⅱ, but anxiety related symptoms was significantly higher in group Ⅰ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ. Moreover, Logistic regression analysis revealed that more eloquent or humor and unusually restless could be in favor of the diagnosis of hypomania; younger and mania or hypomania as first episode might be in favor of the diagnosis of mania with psychotic symptoms; older, national minorities and unusually restless could be in favor of the diagnosis of mixed state. Conclusion·The clinical features between different subtype bipolar patients with first mania episode are various, and analysis of the clinical features can contribute to early identification of bipolar disorder.
