Objective:To examine the manifestations and causes of administrative burden among primary healthcare professionals,and to explore its impact on job burnout through the mediating role of role conflict,providing theoretical and empirical support for governance-level burden-reduction strategies.Methods:An exploratory sequential mixed-methods design was employed,focusing on primary healthcare professionals in Shandong Province.In the first phase,in-depth interviews were conducted with 175 participants;in the second phase,a questionnaire survey of 1,096 participants and follow-up interviews with 107 participants were carried out.Results:The proportions of respondents who reported"heavy"or"very heavy"burdens were 62.7%for inspection,54.8%for documentation,51.8%for reporting,and 24.4%for meetings.Structural equation modeling showed that administrative burden had a direct effect on job burnout(0.150)and an indirect effect through role conflict(0.093).Qualitative findings further indicated that administrative burden largely stemmed from public health traceability requirements and medical insurance policies,and operated through both resource-based and value-based conflicts.Conclusions:Primary healthcare professionals face considerable administrative burdens,which may heighten job burnout through role conflict.Governance reforms should optimize inspection and assessment,streamline data reporting,refine record-keeping,and promote collaborative governance to break the chain of institutional pressure leading to burnout.

Objective This study aims to compare the clinical efficacy and complications associated with microwave ablation(MWA)and sublobectomyfor treating stage ⅠA non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Data from stage ⅠA1-ⅠA3 NSCLC patients treated at Yunnan Cancer Hospital between January 2021 and December 2022 were retrospectively collected.A total of 82 patients who underwent MWA and 82 patients who received sublobectomy were selected through propensity score matching.Periprocedural conditions,short-term efficacy,and complications were compared between the two groups.Progression-free survival(PFS)and Disease-free survival(DFS)were monitored and evaluated.The Kaplan-Meier method was employed to construct survival curves,and logistic regression was utilized to analyze the factors influencing complications.Results The MWA group exhibited shorter procedure times,less intraprocedural blood loss,less postprocedure pain,shorter hospitalization durations,and lower hospitalization costs compared to the sublobectomy group(P<0.001).All patients successfully underwent the procedures,with a complete ablation rate of 97.6%and a local control rate of 87.8%in the MWA group.The median follow-up duration was 26.5 months.Survival curve analysis indicated no statistically significant differences in PFS and DFS between the two groups.The primary complications observed were pneumothorax(24.4%,20/82)and moderate to severe pain(11.0%,9/82)in the MWA group,while the sublobectomy group experienced moderate to severe pain(41.5%,34/82)and pulmonary infection(12.2%,10/82).Single-factor analysis demonstrated six variables influenced the occurrence of MWA pneumothorax.Multi-factor logistic regression revealed that the shortest distance from the tumor to the pleura(P=0.021,OR=15.341,95%CI:1.699~24.367)and the number of punctures through the pleura(P=0.024,OR=0.068,95%CI:0.001~0.612)were identified as independent risk factors for pneumothorax.Conclusion MWA demonstrates good efficacy for treating stage ⅠA NSCLC due to minimal trauma,low cost,rapid recovery,few and mild complications.Additionally,MWA and sublobectomy exhibit comparable PFS and DFS,making MWA a safe and effective treatment method.Therefore,MWA is worthy of promotion in clini-cal practice.

Objective To explore the debridement effects of 3 types of plasma scalpels for the animal model of explosion injury,and to compare them with the steel scalpel and high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel.Methods Firstly,blast wounds were constructed in the right inguinal regions of 9 Landrace pigs by high-pressure gas impact combined with preset metal shrapnel.Secondly,debridement was carried out in experimental groups with wide-,arrow-or needle-type plasma scalpel and in control groups with steel and high-frequency electrisurgical scalpel,with the operating temperature and debridement time recorded during the procedure and trauma specimens analyzed pathologically after the debridement;comparisons were performed among the five types of scalpels in terms of debridement effect,and among the four ones in terms of maximum operating temperature and depth of tissue thermal damage under electrocutaneous cutting and electrocoagulation modes with the steel scalpel excluded because it did not generate any heat.GraphPad Prism 9.5.1 software was used for statistical analysis.Results There were no significant differences in debridement effect found between the three plasma scalpels and the steel and high-frequency electrosurgical scalpels(P>0.05).The three types of plasma scalpels had the maximum operating temperature lower significantly than that of the high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel during debridement(P<0.05).Under electrosection and electrocoagulation modes the three plasma scalpels had the depths of tissue thermal damage statistically less than that by the high-frequency electrosurgical scalpel under electrosection and electrocoagulation modes(P<0.05).The depths of tissue thermal damage by the four scalpels under electrocoagulation mode were obviously greater than those under electrosection mode(P<0.05).Conclusion Multi shapes of plasma scalpels behave well in debridement with low operating temperature,little tissue thermal damage and high efficiency for wound protection and the same efficacy with the steel scalpel and high-frequency electrosur-gical scalpel.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(2):31-38]

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the minimum-cost-path-based CT angiography-derived fractional flow reserve(MCP-FFR)and the deep learning-driven CT angiography-derived fractional flow reserve(DeepCL-FFR),and to particularly explore the potential value of the DeepCL algorithm in improving diagnostic accuracy within the"gray zone."Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 151 coronary vessels from 109 patients with coronary artery disease,who were hospitalized at the General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army between January 2020 and June 2021.Pearson correlation and Bland-Altman plots were employed to assess the correlation and agreement of the two CT-FFR methods with invasive FFR.A CT-FFR range of 0.70-0.80 was defined as the diagnostic"gray zone."The accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value for detecting hemodynamic abnormalities were calculated and analyzed.The DeLong test was used to compare the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves(AUC)between the two CT-FFR calculation methods.Results Both CT-FFR methods exhibited a positive correlation with invasive FFR(MCP-FFR:r=0.75,P<0.001;DeepCL-FFR:r=0.86,P<0.001)and showed good agreement(MCP-FFR:mean difference=0.010,P=0.351;DeepCL-FFR:mean difference=-0.003,P=0.772).Both DeepCL-FFR(AUC 0.97,95%CI 0.94-0.99)and MCP-FFR(AUC 0.92,95%CI 0.88-0.97)demonstrated favorable diagnostic performance for detecting hemodynamic abnormalities(P=0.122).In the"gray zone"for hemodynamic abnormality,the diagnostic accuracy of MCP-FFR was 68.8%,whereas DeepCL-FFR increased it to 89.7%.DeepCL-FFR also exhibited superior diagnostic performance(AUC 0.89,95%CI 0.73-0.99)within the"gray zone,"which was significantly higher than that of MCP-FFR(AUC 0.71,95%CI 0.54-0.87)(P<0.001).Conclusions The deep learning-driven coronary centerline extraction algorithm,DeepCL,demonstrates superior diagnostic performance in CT-FFR for detecting hemodynamic abnormalities,particularly by significantly improving diagnostic accuracy in the"gray zone."
