The aging trend is intensifying currently,but there is still a lack of standardized diagnosis and treat-ment schemes for severe infections in elderly people.This paper focuses on the recommendations for immune-related clinical diagnosis and treatment routes as well as the idea of risk stratified diagnosis and treatment for elderly peo-ple,aiming to effectively prevent infectious diseases in elderly people and perform stratified management through systematic and scientific means of immune function monitoring and regulation,so as to enhance the standardized level of diagnosis and treatment as well as clinical treatment effect of infection in elderly people.

Currently,aging is a major public health topic globally.Infectious diseases exhibit high incidence and mortality among the elderly,which seriously affect the quality of life of the elderly and cause a heavy economic bur-den.The changes of immune function in the elderly are complicated.Their immune response and clinical immune regulation methods after infection need further clarification.This expert consensus summarizes the immune charac-teristics of the elderly and the inherent connection with infections,the application of glucocorticoids,the use of re-lated immune modulators,as well as diagnosis and treatment under specific conditions,providing high-quality recommendations for clinical practice.

The five core indicators(the case mix index, the proportion of level-4 surgery, the proportion of technical service income in medical income, the proportion of personnel expenditure in business expenditure, and the proportion of fixed part in personnel salary) and target values determined by the pilot goal of high-quality development of high-level public hospitals jointly built by National Health Commission and Provincial Government had become the core indicators for evaluating the quality and efficiency of public hospital development. The authors proposed the optimization and improvement measures for the five core indicators one by one from the internal reform and innovation in hospitals, as well as the synergetic development and governance of " insurance-medical-medicine linkage", combined with the current situation of a pilot hospital. The authors also proposed the starting points and driving force for promoting the high-quality development of public hospitals through the synergetic development and governance of " insurance-medical-medicine linkage", including implementing government investment responsibilities, streamlining the price evaluation of medical services, deepening the reform of medical insurance payment, accelerating the expansion of drug and consumable procurement, and promoting the application of advanced technologies and products, in order to provide reference for the in-depth promotion of high-quality development of public hospitals.

Objective To observe the effect of abdominal acupuncture in treating allergic rhinitis(AR).Methods Twenty-seven AR patients who attended Fangshan Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from August to October 2022 were selected.They were divided into treatment group(15 cases)and control group(12 cases)according to randomized numerical table method.The treatment group received abdominal acupuncture.The control group at the same point was used one-time sterile cannula acupuncture to simulate acupuncture,but no needle was inserted into the acupoint.Two groups were treated,3 times a week for 4 weeks.The visual analogue scale(VAS),rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ),Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)scores,and the histamine(HIS),leukotriene D4(LTD4),immunoglobulin E(IgE)levels were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results At each time point after treatment,the VAS,RQLQ,PSQI scores and HIS,LTD4,IgE levels of patients in treatment group were significantly lower than those before treatment(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in VAS,RQLQ,and PSQI scores,the HIS,LTD4,and IgE levels after 2-week treatment in both groups(P>0.05).After 4-week treatment and follow-up 4-week,the VAS,RQLQ,and PSQI scores,the HIS,and LTD4 levels in treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Abdominal acupuncture has good therapeutic effect on AR and significantly improves life quality of the patients,which can reduce the levels of HIS,LTD4 and IgE.The therapy is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To analyze the internal conditions and external environment of high-quality development of high-level public hospitals and establish a high-quality development strategy model, for reference of public hospitals to formulate and implement high-quality development strategies.Methods:The case hospital was a pilot in high-quality development of high-level public hospitals. SWOT method was used to analyze the influencing factors, AHP analytic hierarchy process was used to compare the importance of each influencing factor, and then the four-quadrant coordinate system method was used to establish a high-quality development strategy model.Results:The total strength(S), the total weaknesses(W), the total opportunity(O), and the total threat(T)were 0.095, 0.063, 0.065 and 0.024 respectively, reflecting that the strength of internal conditions was greater than the weaknesses, and the opportunities of external environment were greater than the threats. In the four-quadrants, the growth strategy model had the largest triangle area(0.003), and the strategic quadrilateral center of gravity was located in the opportunity area of the growth strategy.Conclusions:High-level public hospitals as represented by the case hospital had entered a period of important strategic opportunities, which the external opportunities were greater than its own strength. These hospitals were recommended to fully leverage the external opportunities, adopt a positive growth oriented(SO)strategy, formulate a development strategy with their own characteristics, promote the interaction of internal conditions and external environment to form new momentum, hence achieving high-quality development.

Objective:To investigate the effects of anxiety and depressive symptoms in mediation of pain catastrophizing on disability in patients with low back pain.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 97 patients with low back pain in the Changjiang Subdistrict community health center from July to October 2021. Oswestry Disability Index, pain catastrophic subscale in Coping Strategies Questionnaire-24, Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-short version, Patient Health Depression Questionnaire-short version were used to evaluate the activity dysfunction, pain catastrophic cognition and anxiety and depression levels of patients,respectively. Path analysis was implemented to test the mediation model, and the indirect effects were assessed using the bootstrap procedure with bias-corrected 95 %CI. Results:Results suggested significant positive correlations among pain catastrophizing, anxiety, depressive symptoms and disability of patients. In addition, both anxiety and depressive symptoms significantly mediated the impact of pain catastrophizing on disability (standardized indirect effects were 0.183 and 0.197, P<0.05). Patients with higher levels of pain catastrophic cognition showed higher levels of anxiety and depressive symptoms (β=0.757, 0.720; P<0.01), and reported more severe motor dysfunction (β=0.241, 0.274; P<0.05). Conclusions:Our findings suggest that anxiety and depression may be the psychological pathways through which pain catastrophizing predicts disability in patients with low back pain. Effective psychological interventions, such as emotion regulation and stress reduction strategies should be considered in treatment and supportive care for patients with low back pain.
