Operation management is an important tool to promote the high-quality development of public hospitals in China.Since the founding of New China,based on China's economic and social development and medical and health system reform,the evolution of operation management of public hospitals in China can be divided into four stages,the system building stage(1949-1978),the liberalization and revitalization stage(1979-1996),the operation mechanism reform stage(1997-2020),and the new stage of high-quality development(2021 present).The development trend of public hospital operation management in future should deepen the public welfare-oriented public hospital operation management,explore the value-oriented medical operation management model based on high-quality development and the refined operation and management model of public hospitals,so as to promote the high-quality development of public hospitals in China.

Promoting the innovation of the operational assistant service model of public hospitals is an important task to realize the lean operation management of public hospital.Through literature research,four typical operational assistant service models currently implemented in public hospitals in China are summarized:the specialized opera-tional assistant service model,the part-time operational assistant service model,the'team-based'operational assistant service model,and the hybrid financial assistant service model combining full-time and part-time roles.These four models are compared and analyzed from five dimensions:management system,role positioning,per-sonnel composition,selection and training,and service mechanism.Based on this,it is proposed that a new Spe-cialized Multi-Disciplinary Team operational assistant service model should be explored and developed according to local conditions to meet the new requirements for lean operational management and high-quality development of public hospitals in the new era.

Objective To construct a competency modeling index system for operation assistants,and to provide a scientific tool for the selection,training,assessment and evaluation of operation assistants in public hospitals.Methods The job analysis method is used to analyze the job responsibilities and functional positioning of operation assistants;key elements of operation assistant competency are extracted based on the iceberg model,and the competency evaluation indexes are constructed by borrowing thematic group discussion and expert consulting method;the CRITIC weight method is used to determine the weights of each index.Results A competency evaluation index system for operations assistants in public hospitals was established with five dimensions and 19 indicators,including professional knowledge,work skills,coordination ability,behavioral motivation and personal traits.Conclusion The competency evaluation index system for operations assistants in public hospitals constructed in this study is of good scientific quality and can provide a quantitative evaluation tool for realizing job matching.

Under the new situation,the selection of operation assistants in public hospitals is a major measure to improve the level of lean operation management of hospitals,so it is very important to design a scientific and reasonable selection and training mechanism for operation assistants.Through literature research and drawing on the competency model,a tertiary grade A cardiovascular disease hospital was selected as a case study to explore the construction of a selection mechanism from four aspects:selection objects,selection conditions,selection methods and selection criteria.Five training mechanisms were formulated from five aspects:capacity improvement,clinical service,data analysis,evaluation and feedback,and organizational behavior norms,and then it was proposed that attention should be paid to the scientific,feasible,replicable and innovative nature of the selection and training mechanism,so as to build an effective public hospital operation assistant team.

The operation assistant work team of public hospitals is an important bridge and link to realize the integration of industry and finance,and an important practitioner to promote the realization of lean operation management.It examines the service model of the operation assistant team engaged in Similar Multi-disciplinary Treatment,focusing on organizational structure,job responsibilities,and service mechanisms.Build a four-tiered lean operational management system and set up an operation assistant work team that combines production,university and research.Based on specific management matters,establish an operation assistant service mechanism such as problem assessment and classification management mechanism,project standardization management mechanism,reward and punishment assessment mechanism,etc.,to promote the optimization and integration of hospital medical education,research,prevention and management and core elements such as human,talent,material and technology resources.Help public hospitals to continuously improve their lean operation management level.

Objective:By analyzing the genetic risk of triglyceride-glucose index(Tyg)and insulin resistance(IR)for cardiovascular disease(CVD), to elucidate the extent to which the contribution of Tyg to the risk of CVD development is influenced by IR genetic risk.Methods:In this study, we selected data from a cohort of elderly people in the Kunshan community, screened 7, 385 individuals with both clinical and genomic data, and calculated the polygenic risk score of insulin resistance(IRPRS)for each participant based on publicly available IR genome-wide association data, and assessed the effect of genetic risk and Tyg level on the risk of developing CVD using a multivariate Cox proportional risk model.Calculating interactions to assess the effects of genetic risk and Tyg levels on the risk of developing CVD, the effects of Tyg tertile grouping and IRPRS on the risk of developing CVD were assessed using a multivariate Cox proportional risk model, and subgroup analyses were performed for gender to assess the effects of Tyg tertile grouping and IRPRS on the risk of developing CVD by gender.Results:In the univariate Cox model, Q3 and IRPRS with the highest TYG levels were significantly associated with the risk of CVD, respectively( HR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.33-1.89; P<0.001; HR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.18-2.20; P=0.003).After adjusting for multiple confounders, the Q3 Group with the highest TYG level was still significantly associated with the risk of CVD( HR=1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.57; P=0.014), the Association of TYG with the risk of CVD did not change significantly( HR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.05-1.57; P=0.014).We conducted a subgroup analysis by sex and found that among older men, 13, the highest levels of TYG and IRPRS were significantly associated with CVD risk, respectively( HR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.31.2.20; P<0.001; HR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.24-3.15; P=0.004).After adding IRPRS to the model, the Association of TYG with the risk of CVD remained unchanged( HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.31-2.19; P<0.001).After adjusting for various confounders, Tyg remained significantly associated with the risk of CVD( HR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.04-1.88; P=0.028), the results showed that TYG remained significantly associated with the risk of CVD( HR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.05-1.90; P=0.023), and the association did not decrease.No Association of IRPRS with CVD risk was found in older women. Conclusions:IRPRS and TYG are the risk factors of CVD, and diet, exercise, drugs and other external factors on TYG are the main risk factors of CVD.For individuals with high genetic factors, the risk of CVD can still be reduced by lifestyle adjustments such as diet, exercise and drug intervention.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum uric acid/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) and the risk of hypertension in elderly physical examination populations.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 1 028 patients aged≥60 years who underwent physical examinations at the Health Management Center of Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from September 2023 to February 2024 were included in this study. The general demographic data, past medical history, physical examination and laboratory examination indicators of the physical examiners were collected, and according to whether they had hypertension or not, they were divided into hypertension group (390 cases) and non-hypertension group (638 cases), and all UHR values were arranged from small to large, and the UHR was divided into three groups by tertiles of UHR, and the general data and blood biochemical indexes between the groups were compared. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between UHR level and body mass index, total cholesterol, triglyceride and other indexes in the elderly population. Logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between UHR level and hypertension in the elderly population, and the stratification analysis of the physical examination population was carried out according to diabetes, coronary heart disease and dyslipidemia, and the interaction test between groups was carried out.Results:Among the 1 028 geriatric physical examination cases, 580 (56.4%) were males and 448 (43.6%) were females, aged (66.7±5.8) years. UHR levels were higher in the hypertensive group compared to the non-hypertensive group [248.88 (191.19, 322.25) vs 213.52 (165.94, 275.29); Z=-5.445, P<0.05]. With the increase of UHR level, the detection rate of hypertension in the elderly population increased (accounted for 27.8%, 38.2% and 47.8%, respectively; χ2=29.211, P<0.05). Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that UHR was positively correlated with body mass index, triglycerides, serum uric acid, serum creatinine and fasting blood glucose ( r=0.318, 0.334, 0.774, 0.474, 0.080; all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with total cholesterol, glomerular filtration rate and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( r=-0.239, -0.303, -0.154; all P<0.05). When the confounding factors were not adjusted (model 1), the risk of hypertension in high UHR group was 2.382 times higher than that in low UHR group and 1.607 times higher than that in medium UHR group; after adjusting for all confounding factors such as age, gender, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, junior high school education or below, smoking, alcohol consumption, glomerular filtration rate, etc., the risk of hypertension in the high-level UHR group was 1.732 times higher than that in the low-level UHR group (95% CI: 1.139-2.635) ( P<0.05). The elderly physical examination population was further stratified according to whether there was diabetes, dyslipidemia and coronary heart disease, and it was found that there was no interaction between UHR and diabetes, dyslipidemia and coronary heart disease on the prevalence of hypertension (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Hypertension detection rate increases with higher UHR levels. UHR is closely related to the incidence of hypertension in the elderly population.

Objective: To analyze the serological characteristics of anti-Mur antibodies and investigate the distribution frequency of the Mur antigen among voluntary blood donors in Shiyan, thereby providing a basis for guiding clinical transfusion and establishing a Mur blood type database. Methods: ABO blood grouping of donors and patients was performed using an automated blood typing analyzer and the gel card method, respectively. Unexpected antibody screening and identification were performed using the saline, tube anti-human globulin, and polybrene methods. The specificity of anti-Mur antibodies was confirmed using Fisher's exact probability test. Plasma treated with 2-mercaptoethanol was used to distinguish IgM and IgG antibodies. IgM and IgG anti-Mur titers were determined by the saline tube method and the anti-human globulin tube method, respectively, at 4℃, room temperature, and 37℃. A total of 1 659 donor red blood cell samples were initially screened for the Mur antigen phenotype using three samples of human-derived anti-Mur plasma by the micro-tube method. Donors who tested positive for Mur antigen were further tested by the direct antiglobulin test (DAT); those with negative results were confirmed for Mur antigen by the gel card and polybrene methods. Results: Three blood samples were identified to contain mixed IgG and IgM anti-Mur antibodies. The titers of both IgM and IgG anti-Mur antibodies were highest at 4℃, intermediate at room temperature, and lowest at 37℃. The positive frequency of the Mur antigen among voluntary blood donors in Shiyan was 1.99% (33/1 659). Conclusion: anti-Mur antibodies were detected in both blood donors and patients in our region. The Mur antigen shows a certain distribution frequency among voluntary blood donors in Shiyan. Screening for the Mur blood type and establishing a corresponding database could enhance transfusion safety.

Background Exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has been observed in both living and working environments. Volatile organic compounds metabolites (VOCMs) in urine can be used to assess the exposure to VOCs and potentially cause adverse effects on human body. Objective To quantitatively evaluate urinary VOCMs and their associations with renal function damage, and further trace the characteristics of potential environmental exposure to provide scientific evidence for effective prevention measures. Methods The study included a total of 6028 samples from four cross-sectional studies in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2011 and 2018, with exposure and health outcomes matched. Generalized linear models were employed to assess the associations of urinary VOCMs (urinary creatinine adjusted) with urinary protein levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), with coviriables including gender, age, body mass index, education, smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise frequency, diabetes, and hypertension. Weighted quantile sum (WQS) approach was utilized to analyze the effects of mixed exposure and to rank the contribution of individual VOCMs. The associations between VOCMs and associated living environments and occupational exposure characteristics were further investigated. Results Among the enrolled study participants (n=6028), a total of 11 urinary VOCMs were measured, with 10 metabolites having a positive rate of over 80% (84.59%-99.99%). There were 604 individuals (10.0%) having urinary protein abnormalities and 2831 individuals (47.0%) with eGFR reduced. Through a single and a multiple generalized linear model, 5 VOCMs exhibited statistically significant associations with urinary protein abnormalities and/or reduced eGFR levels (P<0.05): N-acetyl-S-(N-methylaminocarbonyl)-L-cysteine (AMC), N-acetyl-S-(2-carboxyethyl)-L-cysteine (CEM), N-acetyl-S-(3,4-dihydroxybutyl)-L-cysteine (DHB), 2-hydroxy-2-phenylacetic acid (MAD), and N-acetyl-S-(4-hydroxy-2-butenyl)-L-cysteine (MB3). The WQS index indicated a significantly positive association between VOCMs and urinary protein abnormalities, and DHB contributed the most. The analysis on the potential sources of VOCs exposure showed that those who worked as a private entrepreneur or an employee (vs. government employees), rent houses (vs. owned real estate), had less number of rooms in the residence, fueled cars at self-service gas stations, and inhaled paint fumes in the past 48 h associated with higher VOCMs (P < 0.05) and DHB contributed the most. Conclusion Multiple VOCMs in urine are associated with significantly kidney function injuries. The mixture exposure to VOCMs is significantly associated with higher risks of urinary protein abnormalities. Occupational category, housing ownership, ways to fuel a car, and inhalation of paint odors are closely related with VOCMs levels.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of emodin(EMO)on dextran sulfate(DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis(UC)in mice.Methods DSS induced UC mouse model,detection of body weight,colon length and histopathological changes.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-10(IL-10),and myeloperoxidase(MPO)levels.Western blot analysis examined the expression of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88(MyD88)/nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway-related proteins.Flow cytometry assessed the ratio of helper T cells 17(Th17)to regulatory T cells(Treg).Additionally,16S rDNA sequencing was employed to evaluate gut microbiota composition.Results Compared with the normal group,DSS-treated mice exhibited significant weight loss,shortened colon length,and marked histological damage(P<0.001).EMO intervention,particularly at high doses,demonstrated dose-dependent improvements in body weight and colon injury(P<0.05).ELISA analysis showed EMO reduced TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 levels while increasing IL-10(P<0.05).Western blot results indicated EMO inhibited abnormal activation of the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway and restored IκB.Conclusion EMO effectively mitigates DSS-induced ulcerative colitis(UC)inflammation and intestinal damage by regulating the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway,restoring Th17/Treg balance,and maintaining microbial homeostasis,providing theoretical support for its potential as a UC therapeutic agent.
