Objective:To analyze the implementation effect of single disease payment policy for day surgery (hereinafter referred to as the policy), for references for the reform of medical insurance payment.Methods:By collecting the information of inpatients from 2017 to 2019 in a tertiary hospital, the research group took patients with colorectal benign tumor and nodular goitre as the policy implementation group and the control group respectively. 2017-2018 was the pre implementation stage of the policy, and 2019 was the post implementation stage of the policy. The difference-in-differences (DID) model was used to analyze the changes in indicators such as length of stay and hospitalization expenses after policy implementation, under whether the policy is implemented or not, as well as before or after policy implementation.Results:A total of 2 419 patients were included, including 927 patients with nodular goiter in the control group and 1 492 patients with colorectal benign tumors in the policy implementation group (688 patients before the policy implementation and 804 patients after the policy implementation). The results of DID showed that the hospital days for patients with colorectal benign tumor decreased by 56.53%, the hospitalization expenses decreased by 26.51%, the out-of-pocket expenses decreased by 26.66%, the treatment expenses increased by 11.96%, the drug expenses decreased by 50.29% and the consumables expenses decreased by 20.23% after the implementation of the policy.Conclusions:The implementation of the policy could reduce length of stay, hospitalization expenses and out-of-pocket expenses, optimize the structure of hospitalization expenses, improve the efficiency of hospital diagnosis and treatment, and help the hospital realize its transformation from a size expansion to a quality and benefit expansion.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of hyperuricemia(HUA) and explore early intervention of metabolic diseases.Methods:A total of 70 523 participants were selected from the database of check-ups in 2016. Univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to identify related factors of HUA. Correspondence analysis was performed for the aggregation of different levels of uric acid(UA) and related factors. The mediating effect of mean blood pressure(MBP) between abnormal metabolic indicators and abnormal renal function was tested.Results:The age, sex, occupation, body mass index(BMI), systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood urea nitrogen(BUN), creatinine(Cr), estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR), fasting plasma glucose(FPG), total cholesterol(TC), triacylglycerol(TG), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, plasma viscosity were significantly related to HUA( P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that youth, male, hypertension, TC, TG, and Cr were risk factors for HUA, while HDL-C was a protective factor for HUA( P<0.001). Correspondence analysis showed that during the gradual increase of UA, TC was the first to appear abnormal, followed by hypertension and TG, and the increase of Cr appeared last. Mediating effect showed that in changes of UA, the mediating effects of MBP on TC, TG, and HDL-C were 36.35%, 12.63%, and 9.41%, respectively. In changes of eGFR, the mediating effects of MBP on TC, TG and HDL-C were 30.20%, 27.70%, and 6.13%, respectively. Conclusions:UA is positively correlated with blood pressure, TC, and TG, and inversely with HDL-C. TC and TG have an impact on renal impairment, in which MBP plays a mediating role.

Objective: To compare the application effect of the colonoscopy, fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and novel risk-adapted screening approach in colorectal cancer screening in Xuzhou population. Methods: From May 2018 to April 2019, 4 280 subjects aged 50-74 were recruited from Gulou district, Yunlong district and Quanshan district of Xuzhou. They were randomly assigned to the colonoscopy group (n=863), FIT group (n=1 723) and novel risk-adapted screening approach group (n=1 694) according to the ratio of 1∶2∶2. For the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, after the risk assessment, high-risk subjects were invited to undergo colonoscopy and low-risk subjects were invited to undergo FIT examination. All FIT positive subjects were invited to undergo colonoscopy. Colonoscopy participation rate [(the number of colonoscopies completed/the number of colonoscopies invited to participate)×100%], detection rate of colorectal lesions [(the number of diagnosed patients/the number of colonoscopies completed)×100%], colonoscopy resource load (the number of colonoscopies completed/the number of diagnosed advanced tumors) and FIT resource load in each group were calculated and compared. Results: The age of all subjects was (61±6) years old, including 1 816 males (42.43%). There was no statistically significant difference in the socio-demographic characteristics of the subjects in different screening groups. The colonoscopy participation rate was 22.60% (195/863) in the colonoscopy group, 57.04% (77/135) in the FIT group, and 33.94% (149/439) in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, respectively. The colonoscopy participation rate was higher in the FIT group than in the colonoscopy group and the novel risk-adapted screening approach group (P<0.001). The colonoscopy participation rate of novel risk-adapted screening group was significantly higher than the colonoscopy group (P<0.001). The detection rates of advanced tumors were 6.67% (13/195), 9.09% (7/77) and 8.72% (13/149), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The colonoscopy resource load (95%CI) was 15 (13-17) in the colonoscopy group, 11 (9-14) in the FIT group and 11 (10-13) in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group, respectively. Among them, the colonoscopy resource load of high-risk individuals in the novel risk-adapted screening approach group was 12 (9-15). FIT resource loads (95%CI) were 207 (196-218) and 88 (83-94) in the FIT group and the novel risk-adapted screening approach group. Conclusion: The combined application of risk-adapted screening approach and FIT may have a good application effect in colorectal cancer screening.

Objective: To develop a brief version of Quality of Life of College Students Questionnaire(QOLCS-51) to measure the quality of college students conveniently in time. Methods: Qualitative research and two investigations were applied to shorten and verify the brief questionnaire, and SPSS 22.0 and Lisrel 9.20 were used to analyze the reliability and validity of 2 questionnaires. Results: Quality of Life of College Students Questionnaire-bref was developed by deleting 22 items through qualitative research and 6 items by the first investigation. 952 college students from Jiangsu, Anhui and Shanxi Province were selected to participate in the second investigation, which consisted of five domains and 23 items (QOLCS-23). All 23 items were accepted by analysis of difficulty(0.44-0.68), and all have passed the test of critical ratio(P<0.01), the general related index was 0.33-0.60(P<0.01). 78.3% items distinguished the students with/without dyssomnia. Reliability was tested by test-retest reliability coefficient(0.71-0.86), homogeneity reliability coefficient (Cronbach α=0.845) and exploratory factor analysis (6 factors, i.e. physics domain, three subdomains of psychology domain, behavior domain, social domain and environment domain). Validity was tested by correlations of five domains between QOLCS-51 and QOLCS23(greater than 0.8) and confirmatory factor analysis(χ2/df=12.17, RMSEA=0.05, SRMR=0.07, GFI=0.84, AGFI=0.83, CFI=0.92, IFI=0.92, NFI=0.85, NNFI=0.91). Conclusion QOLCS51 consists of 23 items of QOLCS23, after deleting 28 items, to assess 5 dimensions of physiology, psychology, behavior, environment and social support with good construction validity and criterion-related validity, and good homogeneity reliability and re-test reliability.

Objective To investigate the residents' acceptance and the influencing factors of the hierarchical medical system in Xuzhou, and to suggest on effective system implementation. Methods Xuzhou residents free of cognitive impairment and over 18 years old were sampled for questionnaire survey in July-August 2016, to study their acceptance of their basics and acceptance of the system. 1 550 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 473 valid ones were recovered. The count data were expressed as constituent ratio, and χ2test was used for single-factor analysis, with binary logistic regression analysis for multi-factor analysis. Results 71. 0% of the residents embraced this system. Their acceptance varies significantly with their age, place of residence, education, annual average monthly income, self-rated health status, physical examination experience, conditions of chronic diseases, medical visit experience at primary healthcare institutions, and their awareness of the system (P<0.05). Conclusions The acceptance of the system by Xuzhou residents needs to be elevated, by means of greater promotional efforts, capacity building for primary institutions, so as to fully leverage the system to serve the residents.

OBJECTIVE To explore the protective effect of polysaccharides from Salvia Chinensis Benth. (PSSC) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and D- galactosamine (GalN)- provoked mouse acute liver failure (ALF) and the possible molecular mechanism. METHODS Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal control, model, model+PSSC 30 and 100 mg·kg- 1 groups. PSCC was given once a day and for a week. To establish an ALF model, mice of model and PSSC groups were ip injected with LPS 10 μg·kg-1 and GalN 700 mg·kg-1 at the end of PSSC treatment. The microscopic structure of the liver was detected by HE staining. Serum and hepatic biochemical parameters of glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic- pyruvic transaminase (GPT), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) were detected by colorimetric methods. The relative content of hepatic reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by DCFH-DA fluorescent probes. Levels of cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β(IL-1β) and IL- 6 in the serum and liver were detected by ELISA. Activity of caspase 3 in liver homogenates was detected by aspase 3 activity assay kit. RESULTS Compared with normal control group, in the liver of model group, hepatocytes were arrayed in disorder, cytoplasm of hepatocytes shrank, and boundaries between cells were fuzzy, the infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells and tissue hemorrhage could be detected, pathological scores were elevated significantly (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS in the liver of ALF model mice were elevated to 2.2 and 4.3 times that of the normal control, respectively (P<0.01), the level of GSH decreased to 51% (P<0.01), and the activities of SOD, CAT and GSH- Px declined to 74%, 36% and 42%, respectively (P<0.01). Levels of TNF- α, IL- 1β and IL- 6 in the serum and liver of model group were increased (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity was increased to 5.3 times that of the normal control (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the number of surviving mice in PSSC groups increased, liver pathological scores declined (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS increased (P<0.01), levels of GSH, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the liver and serum declined (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity decreased (P<0.01). CONCLUSION PSSC is able to alleviate LPS and GalN-induced ALF in mice. Inhibition of hepatic oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cell apoptosis is possibly implicated in the protective effect of PSSC.

BACKGROUND: Human olfactory mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (hOM-MSCs) not only have the basic characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells, but also originate from the ectoderm and are prone to differentiate into neurons, which are a kind of ideal seed cells for nerve repair and regeneration. Cells are conventionally cultured in about 21% in vitro, while only 3%-9% oxygen is found in the human body and tissue space. There is still no report on the effect of hypoxia on the proliferation and activity of hOM-MSCs.OBJECTIVE: To explore whether hypoxic microenvironment can promote hOM-MSCs proliferation and activity and the related mechanism. METHODS: hOM-MSCs were isolated, cultured and identified by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. The passage 4 hOM-MSCs were divided into three groups: 21% O2 group, 3% O2 group and 3% O2+20 μmol/L YC-1 (HIF-1α inhibitors) group. Proliferation and apoptosis of hOM-MSCs was detected by flow cytometry after 72 hours of culture. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen protein expression was detected by western blot. The mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α and TWIST were detected by Q-PCR and western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The purity of hOM-MSCs was up to 97%, as defined by flow cytometry. The proliferation index of 3% O2 group was higher than the 21% O2 group (P < 0.05), and cell survival and apoptosis ratio (apoptotic cells included mechanical death + early apoptosis + late apoptosis) between the two groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05). Western blot results showed that the proliferating cell nuclear antigen protein expression in the 3% O2 group was significantly higher than that in the other groups (P < 0.05). The HIF-1α and TWIST expressions at mRNA and protein levels in the 3% O2 group were significantly higher than those in the other groups (P < 0.05). To conclude, hypoxic microenvironment can promote the hOM-MSCs proliferation and has no effect on the apoptosis, and the HIF-TWIST signal pathway plays an important role in this progress.

BACKGROUND:Stem cells have been widely used in the treatment of spinal cord injury,but the clinical application is limited by immune rejection,difficulty in cell harvesting and purification.However,human nasal mucosa mesenchymal stem cells (hNM-MSCs) have no such problems,and its clinical application in the treatment of spinal cord injury has been not reported yet.OBJECTIVE:To observe the biological characteristics of autologous hNM-MSCs and its clinical efficacy in the treatment of advanced incomplete spinal cord injury.METHODS:NM-MSCs were isolated from the human nasal mucosa,cultured and identified in vitro.The ultrastructure of NM-MSCs was observed by transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope.Then the NM-MSCs were induced to differentiate into osteocytes,adipocytes,stem cell spheres,or neurons in vitro.Totally eight patients with incomplete spinal cord injury were enrolled and subjected to hNM-MSCs transplantation via lumbar puncture for 1-3 sessions of about 5× 107 cells each,with an interval of 5-7 days,after the approval of the medical ethics committee.All the patients were followed up for 6 months.Preoperative and postoperative therapeutic effect evaluations were performed on the basis of American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scores.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under light microscope,the NM-MSCs were mainly spindle-shaped,positive for STRO-1 and exhibited a radial arrangement.NM-MSCs highly expressed CD73,CD90 and CD105,but did not express CD34 and CD45,with the purity of over 97％.And lots of podgy microvilli were seen on the surface of NM-MSCs under the scanning electron microscope,and two kinds of cell morphologies were seen under the transmission electron microscope.Moreover,hNM-MSCs had the ability to differentiate into osteocytes,adipocytes,stem cell spheres and neurons.During the 6-month follow-up,seven patients achieved neurological function recovery to different extents except for one patient,and no side effects were found.It is concluded that hNM-MSCs can become the ideal seed cells for tissue-engineered cell repair.Autologous NM-MSCs transplantation for the treatment of spinal cord injury can achieve the ideal effect,with the value of clinical application.
