Objective:To construct an evaluation index system for the long-term care needs of community-dwelling elderly.Methods:Based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, a preliminary evaluation index system was formed using literature research and descriptive research. The evaluation index system was revised and improved through the expert consultation.Results:Two rounds of consultation were conducted on 20 experts. The effective response rates of the questionnaire for two rounds of expert consultation were 90.0% (18/20) and 94.4% (17/18), respectively. The expert opinion submission rates were 94.4% (17/18) and 29.4% (5/17), and the expert authority coefficients were 0.94 and 0.95, respectively. After two rounds of expert consultation, the coefficient of variation of each indicator was less than 0.15, and the Kendall harmony coefficients of the overall indicator and all levels of indicators were 0.277 to 0.441 (all P<0.01). The final evaluation index system consisted of three first-level indicators, 12 second-level indicators, and 49 third-level indicators. Conclusions:The construction process of the evaluation index system established is rigorous, the content is comprehensive, and the research methods and results are scientific and reliable. It can provide a basis for further developing long-term care needs assessment tools for community-dwelling elderly and establishing grading standards for long-term care needs assessment.

Objective To explore the construction and practice of an intelligent prevention and treatment system for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in grassroots hospitals. Methods Based on relevant guidelines and expert consensuses on VTE prevention and treatment, domestic and foreign literature was reviewed. A research and development team composed of clinical experts in VTE prevention and treatment, medical and nursing quality management experts, and information engineers conducted investigations and research in surrounding grassroots hospitals. Through evidence-based research and surveys, the team identified relevant business needs, user needs, and functional requirements of grassroots hospitals, and finally formulated a detailed design plan. The main program of system was written in Java. The interface obtained data from the hospital's data platform through Webservice and view interfaces. To prevent issues of repeated data extraction when multiple applications perform time tasks to assess the same patient during later server usage and expansion, the XXL-JOB distributed task scheduling platform was adopted to handle VTE assessments by medical staff. Results After the clinical application of the intelligent VTE prevention and treatment system, the bleeding risk assessment rate increased from 26.20% at the initial system launch in January 2023 to 83.04% by the end of 2023. In January 2023, the implementation rates of mechanical prevention, pharmacological prevention, and combined prevention for medium-to-high-risk VTE patients were 21.39%, 16.39%, and 5.26%, respectively, which increased to 51.75%, 25.50%, and 25.65% in December 2023. Conclusion The VTE prevention and treatment software system developed by grassroots hospitals can improve development efficiency, enhance the clinical practicality of the system, reduce the workload of medical staff, promote standardization and normalization in VTE prevention and treatment, strengthen closed-loop management of medical quality for VTE as a single disease, and effectively improve the prevention and treatment capabilities and levels of VTE within hospitals.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and laboratory characteristics of infectious mononucleosis (IM) in children.Methods:Clinical features and laboratory results of 270 cases with IM admitted to the Department of Pediatrics in Strategic Support Force Medical Center of People′s Liberation Army from January 2012 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. χ2 test was used for comparison between groups. Results:IM mainly occurred in children aged 5 months to 18 years old in autumn and spring.The highest incidence rate (105 cases, 38.9%) was 3-<6 years old (preschoolers). There were 253 cases (93.7%) with fever, 266 cases (98.5%) with adenopharyngitis, 196 cases (72.6%) with tonsil pseudomembrane or exudation, 248 cases (91.9%) with cervical lymphadenopathy, 92 cases (34.1%) with eyelid edema, 202 cases (74.8%) with nasal obstruction, 124 cases (45.9%) with nasal obstruction and snoring, 24 cases (8.9%) with rash, and 112 cases (41.5%) with splenomegaly.A total of 225 cases (83.3%) presented with typical triplets of IM (fever, adenopharyngitis and cervical lymphadenopathy). Sixty-two IM patients were complicated with pulmonary infections and 3 cases with diarrhea.The main co-infection pathogens in children with IM were Mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) (79 cases, 29.3%), influenza A or B virus (34 cases, 12.6%), Streptococcus pneumonia (SP) (18 cases, 6.7%), adenovirus (22 cases, 8.1%) and cytomegalovirus (3 cases, 1.11%). A total of 46 cases (17.0%) had multiple infections.Laboratory test results suggested that absolute lymphocyte count ≥5.0×10 9/L was found in 199 cases (73.7%), and abnormal lymphocyte ratio >0.10 was found in 225 cases (83.3%). Some children had elevated transaminase levels.Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen-immunoglobulin M (EBV-VCA-IgM) was positive in 249 cases (92.2%), Epstein-Barr virus capsid antigen-immunoglobulin G (EBV-VCA-IgG) was positive in 238 cases (88.1%), and Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen-immunoglobulin G (EBV-NA-IgG) was negative in all cases.EBV-VCA-IgG showed low affinity in all cases (<40%). EBV DNA tests of peripheral blood plasma were carried in 153 cases, of which 118 cases (77.1%) were positive. Conclusions:EBV related IM mainly attacks preschoolers.Most patients are presented with typical triplets of IM.Eyelid edema, nasal obstruction, snoring, splenomegaly and elevated transaminase levels are prevalent in IM children.Most cases have a favorable prognosis.

Skeletal muscle is the largest tissue in the human body, and it plays a major role in exerting force and maintaining metabolism homeostasis. The role of muscle transcription factors in the regulation of metabolism is not fully understood. MondoA is a glucose-sensing transcription factor that is highly expressed in skeletal muscle. Previous studies suggest that MondoA can influence systemic metabolism homeostasis. However, the function of MondoA in the skeletal muscle remains unclear.
