OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of Cefazolin sodium for injection, Cefuroxime sodium for injection, and Ceftazidime for injection from nationally organized centralized drug procurement (hereinafter referred to as “centralized procurement”) and non-centralized procurement in patients with bacterial infection. METHODS The case data of hospitalized patients who had used 3 kinds of Cephalosporins for injection from centralized procurement or non-centralized procurement in the treatment of bacterial infections were retrospectively collected from 19 medical institutions in Kunming from January 2020 to September 2022. After balancing the baseline differences between the groups with the propensity score matching method, the effectiveness and safety differences of 3 kinds of Cephalosporins for injection from centralized procurement or non- centralized procurement were compared respectively. RESULTS After balancing the baseline differences among the groups, 394 cases in each group of Cefazolin sodium for injection from centralized procurement or non-centralized procurement, 472 cases in each group of Cefuroxime sodium for injection from centralized procurement or non-centralized procurement, 504 cases in group of Ceftazidime for injection from centralized procurement and 590 cases in group of non-centralized procurement were included in the analysis. In terms of effectiveness, there were no significant differences in clinical response rate, 72 h response rate, bacterial clearance rate, and the recovery rate of body temperature, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, neutrophil percentage, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin recovery between the centralized procurement group and non-centralized procurement group of Cefazolin sodium for injection and Cefuroxime sodium for injection (P>0.05). The proportion of patients in centralized procurement group of Ceftazidime for injection with C-reactive protein restored to normal reference range was significantly higher than that in non-centralized procurement group (46.9% vs. 27.9%, P<0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences in other effectiveness indicators among groups (P>0.05). In terms of safety, there was no statistical difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions between centralized procurement group and non-centralized procurement group of 3 kinds of Cephalosporins for injection (P>0.05); the incidence of platelet count reduction in centralized procurement group of Cefazolin sodium for injection was significantly higher than non-centralized procurement group (20.7% vs. 7.1%, P<0.05), the incidence of eosinophilia elevation in centralized procurement group of Ceftazidime for injection was significantly higher than non-centralized procurement group (5.3% vs. 1.9%, P<0.05). In addition, there was no statistically significant difference in the abnormal rates of other laboratory indicators among the three types of injection Cephalosporins (P> 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The efficacy of 3 kinds of Cephalosporin for injection from centralized procurement is not inferior to non- centralized procurement varieties, and the safety is equivalent to that of non-centralized procurement varieties.

Objective:To conduct a multidimensional quantification and analysis of the development trajectory of both "quality" and "quantity" in China's higher education from 2001 to 2021, and lay a solid foundation for the construction of a high-quality education system.Methods:Based on macro statistical data on education in China from 2001 to 2021, a comprehensive indicator system for the development level of higher education was established. This system included six dimensions: educational conditions, financial support, institutional safeguards, scientific research, social services, and international collaboration. Methods such as entropy-weighted TOPSIS, general difference index, spatial autocorrelation, and hot spot analysis were used to evaluate the level of high-quality development of higher education and its spatial differentiation. Additionally, an obstacle degree analysis model was used to evaluate the factors hindering the high-quality development of higher education.Results:The high-quality development level of China's higher education has steadily improved, with a growth rate of 2.85%. The spatial distribution exhibited a clustering pattern, with stable hotspot regions established in the eastern region characterized by significant "spillover" effects. Concurrently, the western regions narrowed the development gap compared with other areas. Scientific research represents the primary challenge to achieving high-quality development in higher education, with an average obstacle degree of 18.46%. Books per student, fixed assets per student, foreign technology imported per institution, research & development project funds, research & development projects per institution, and personnel investment in research & development projects were important constraints on the development of higher education in China and the provinces.Conclusions:Resource sharing and linkage need to be guaranteed by policy and institutional support, and each subject of higher education should give full play to its own advantages to contribute to the high-quality development of higher education through interregional linkage development, mutual synergy, and common progress.

Purpose:
Knowing the distinction between benign and borderline/malignant phyllodes tumors (PTs) can help in the surgical treatment course. Herein, we investigated the value of magnetic resonance imaging-based texture analysis (MRI-TA) in differentiating between benign and borderline/malignant PTs.
Methods:
Forty-three women with 44 histologically proven PTs underwent breast MRI before surgery and were classified into benign (n = 26) and borderline/malignant groups (n = 18 [15 borderline, 3 malignant]). Clinical and routine MRI parameters (CRMP) and MRI-TA were used to distinguish benign from borderline/malignant PT. In total, 298 texture parameters were extracted from fat-suppression (FS) T2-weighted, FS unenhanced T1-weighted, and FS first-enhanced T1-weighted sequences. To evaluate the diagnostic performance, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed for the K-nearest neighbor classifier trained with significantly different parameters of CRMP, MRI sequence-based TA, and the combination strategy.
Results:
Compared with benign PTs, borderline/malignant ones presented a higher local recurrence (p = 0.045); larger size (p < 0.001); different time-intensity curve pattern (p = 0.010); and higher frequency of strong lobulation (p = 0.024), septation enhancement (p = 0.048), cystic component (p = 0.023), and irregular cystic wall (p = 0.045). TA of FS T2-weighted images (0.86) showed a significantly higher area under the curve (AUC) than that of FS unenhanced T1-weighted (0.65, p = 0.010) or first-enhanced phase (0.72, p = 0.049) images. The texture parameters of FS T2-weighted sequences tended to have a higher AUC than CRMP (0.79, p = 0.404). Additionally, the combination strategy exhibited a similar AUC (0.89, p = 0.622) in comparison with the texture parameters of FS T2-weighted sequences.
Conclusion
MRI-TA demonstrated good predictive performance for breast PT pathological grading and could provide surgical planning guidance. Clinical data and routine MRI features were also valuable for grading PTs.

A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The general demographic characteristics, the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis (whether people would have a willingness or encourage their relatives/friends to confirm the abnormal results once which were detected from the physical examination) and other information were collected by using the self-designed questionnaire. The non-conditional logistic regression model was used to identify the relateol factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis.
Results:
As for residents with abnormal result from the physical examination, 89.29% (28 802) of residents would choose to seek medical treatment for further diagnosis. If their relatives/friends had abnormal results from the physical examination, 89.55% (28 886) of residents would encourage their relatives/friends to confirm the diagnosis in time. The non-conditional logistic regression model analysis showed that compared with the public institution staff/civil servants, annual household income less than 20 000 CNY, the western region and the cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, the company staff, annual household income about 40 000 CNY and more, and the residents from the middle and eastern region had a stronger consciousness to seek further diagnosis; while the unemployed residents and community residents were less likely to seek further diagnosis (
