ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of action of Wendantang on ApoE^-/- hyperlipidemic mice using non-targeted metabolomics technology. MethodsMale C57BL/6J mice served as the normal control group （n=6）， and they were fed with regular chow， while male ApoE^-/- mice constituted the high-fat group （n=30）， and they were fed with a 60% high-fat diet. After 11 weeks of model establishment， the mice in the high-fat group were randomly divided into the model group， simvastatin group （3.3 mg·kg^-1）， and high-dose， medium-dose， and low-dose groups of Wendantang （26， 13， 6.5 g·kg^-1， respectively， in terms of crude drug amount）， with six mice in each group. The normal control group and the model group were gavaged with an equivalent volume of normal saline， and all groups continued to be fed their respective diets， receiving daily medication for 10 weeks with weekly body weight measurements. Serum levels of total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， free fatty acids （NEFA）， blood glucose （GLU）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） were detected in the mice. Pathological changes in liver tissue were observed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS） was employed for metabolomic analysis of mouse liver tissue. ResultsCompared to the normal control group， the model group exhibited significantly increased body weight， blood lipid levels， and liver function （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with disordered liver tissue structure， swollen hepatocytes， and accompanying vacuolar fatty degeneration and inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared to the model group， the simvastatin group and Wendantang groups showed significantly reduced body weight， TG， NEFA， GLU， ALT， and AST levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with a significant increase in HDL-C levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）， demonstrating a dose-dependent effect. The lesion of the liver tissue section was obviously improved after administration， tending towards a normal liver tissue morphology. Analysis of liver metabolites revealed 86 differential metabolites between the normal control group and the model group， with the high-dose group of Wendantang able to regulate 56 of these metabolites. Twenty-two differential metabolites associated with hyperlipidemia were identified， mainly including chenodeoxycholic acid， hyocholic acid， taurine， glycocholic acid， dihydroceramide， hydroxy sphingomyelin C14∶1， arachidonic acid， and linoleic acid， enriching 22 metabolic pathways， with 4 being the most significant （P<0.05）， namely primary bile acid biosynthesis， sphingolipid metabolism， unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis， and linoleic acid metabolism pathways. ConclusionWendantang can improve blood lipid levels and liver function in ApoE^-/- hyperlipidemic mice， which may be related to the regulation of primary bile acid biosynthesis， sphingolipid metabolism， unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis， and linoleic acid metabolism pathways.

Objective:To construct the impact factor model of primary traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) health management service quality, and put forward corresponding policy suggestions.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, the typical sampling and random sampling method were used to select 39 insiders of primary TCM health management service from 15 communities in Zhejiang Province from August to October in 2022. Interviews on service projects, implementation effects and impact factors were conducted, the three-level coding of interview record was carried out using the grounded theory research method, a model of impact factor for health management service quality of basic TCM was constructed, and the corresponding policy recommendations were put forward.Results:Based on the open coding of 39 original interview data, a total of 516 reference points were obtained, and 53 initial concepts related to the topic were formed and summarized into 17 first-level categories. Through the summary of main axis coding, 6 main categories of “policy environment”，“health literacy”，“community orientation”，“capacity building”，“health preference” and “conflict of interest” were extracted. The logical correlation between the six main categories were analyzed with selective coding, an impact factor model was constructed in accordance with the story line of factors affecting service quality. The story line of this model was as follows: first, the policy environment was the external guarantee of community TCM service quality; second, as the demand-side of the services, the health literacy and requirement of residents was the regulatory factor for service quality; in addition, the community played the role of the supply-side of the services, the service ability construction was the key factor, and the community functions and target orientation was the internal driving factor, meanwhile, the internal/external conflicts of interest had a negative constraint on the service quality.Conclusions:The guarantee intensity of external policy environment is limited, the service demand side pays insufficient attention, and the service supply side functions are absent at the present stage. It is necessary to improve the external policy environment, deepen the connection between supply and demand sides in the field of TCM health service, promote the capacity building of TCM service at the grass-roots level, balance the interests of relevant departments of TCM service, in order to improve the quality of TCM health management service at the grass-roots level.

As a practical carrier for promoting the tiered diagnosis and treatment model, the medical consor-tium is of great significance for balancing medical resources and boosting medical service efficiency. The construction of medical consortiums not only improves the accessibility of high-quality medical resources for patients, but also enhances the diagnostic and treatment level of member units. Meanwhile, it provides space for the leading hospital to adjust the structure of diseases and improve the level of discipline construction. As the core of medical insurance payment reform, DRG, through indicators such as the case mix index(CMI) and the number of diagnosis related group (DRG), provides objective and quantified data support for case management and disease structure optimization, thus effectively guiding the rational allocation of medical resources and the adjustmentof diseases and surgical types within the medical consortium. Comprehensive use of DRG evaluation indicators can construct a multidimensional medical consortium construction evaluation system, provides a clear direction for medical consortium cooperation, thereby promoting the overall healthy and sustainable development of medical consortiums and achieving a win-win situation for all parties involved. This paper, based on the "1+5+1" medical consortium cooperation model centered around Peking Union Medical College Hospital, utilizes DRG indicators to analyze the benefits for patients, member hospitals, and the leading hospital during the medical consortium construction process, with the hope of providing reference for the construction of a medical consortium evaluation system.

Abstract: Objective　To explore the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of non-tuberculous mycobacterial(NTM) pulmonary disease in Hainan in recent years, and to provide data support for the prevention and treatment of NTM pulmonary disease. Methods　Medical records of patients diagnosed with NTM pulmonary disease who treated at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University (Hainan Provincial Tuberculosis Hospital) from January 2018 to December 2022 were collected. The demographics, regional distribution, temporal distribution, distribution of mycobacterial species, clinical symptoms, and radiological imaging changes of these patients were analyzed. Results　A total of 225 confirmed cases of NMT pulmonary disease were collected in this study, with 133(59.1%) female patients outnumbering 92(40.9%) male patients. The disease predominantly affected people over 50 years old, with 192 cases (85.3%), and the major onset age range was 61-<81 years old, with a median age of 63 and an average age of 62. Farmers comprised the majority of the patients, with 112 cases (49.8%). More patients were from the western region (90 cases, 40.0%) than from the central region (76 cases, 33.8%), followed by the eastern region (59 cases, 26.2%). A total of 10 strains were detected from 225 samples, with the most common strains being Mycobacterium intracellulare (92 cases, 40.9%), Mycobacterium chelonae/abscessus(80 cases, 35.6%), and Mycobacterium avium (15 cases, 6.7%), followed by Mycobacterium kansasii (5 cases, 2.2%), Mycobacterium fortuitum (4 cases, 1.8%), and Mycobacterium parascrofulaceum (3 cases, 1.3%). There were 10 cases (4.5%) of mixed infections, including Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare (8 cases, 3.6%), Mycobacterium intracellulare and Mycobacterium chelonae/abscessus (1 case, 0.4%), and Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonae/abscessus (1 case, 0.4%). The primary clinical manifestations of NTM pulmonary disease included cough and sputum (219 cases, 97.3%), hemoptysis (92 cases, 40.9%), fever (61 cases, 27.1%), dyspnea (57 cases, 25.3%), night sweats (52 cases, 23.1%), weight loss (50 cases, 22.2%), and thoracodynia (35 cases, 15.6%). There was no significant difference in symptoms between male and female patients. Pleural thickening (188 cases, 83.6%) and bronchiectasis (151 cases, 67.1%) were the most common imaging changes in NTM pulmonary disease, followed by cavities (93 cases, 41.3%), emphysema (41 cases, 18.2%), and lung damage (28 cases, 12.4%). Male patients were more likely to have lung damage and emphysema, while female patients were more likely to have bronchiectasis. Conclusions　The distribution of NTM species is diverse in Hainan area, with Mycobacterium intracellulare, Mycobacterium chelonae/abscessus, and Mycobacterium avium are dominant species. NTM pulmonary disease and pulmonary tuberculosis have similar clinical features, which requires attention for differentiation in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the differences of functional small airway and pulmonary vascular parameters in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) of different imaging phenotypes.Methods:One hundred and thirty COPD patients underwent biphasic CT scanning in Shanghai Changzheng Hospital from August 2018 to August 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were classified into three phenotypes based on the presence of emphysema and bronchial wall thickening on CT images. Phenotype A: no emphysema or mild emphysema, with or without bronchial wall thickening; Phenotype E: obvious emphysema without bronchial wall thickening; phenotype M: significant emphysema and bronchial wall thickening were present. Parametric response map (PRM) and pulmonary vascular parameters were quantitatively measured at the whole lung level. PRM parameters included the volume of emphysema (PRMV Emphysema), the volume of functional small airway (PRMV fSAD), the volume of normal pulmonary parenchyma (PRMV Normal) and its volume percentage (%). Pulmonary vascular parameters included the number of vessels (N) and cross-sectional area vessels<5 mm 2 (N -CSA<5) at 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 21, 24 mm distance from the pleura. ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis H tests were used to compare the differences for PRM and pulmonary vascular parameters among the three phenotypes, and LSD or Bonferroni tests were used for multiple comparisons. Results:There were significant differences among the three phenotypes for PRMV fSAD, PRMV Emphysema, PRMV fSAD%, PRMV Emphysema%, and PRMV Normal% at the whole lung level ( P<0.05). PRMV Emphysema, PRMV Emphysema%, PRMV Fsad, PRMV fSAD% of phenotype A were lower than those of phenotype E and M ( P<0.001), while there was no significant difference for PRMV Emphysema, PRMV Emphysema%, PRMV fSAD, PRMV fSAD% between phenotype E and phenotype M ( P>0.05). There were significant differences in N and N -CSA<5 that 6 mm distance from the pleura among the three groups( P<0.05). Among them, N and N -CSA<5 that 6 mm distance from pleura in phenotype M were significantly lower than those in phenotype A( P<0.001,0.002); No significant differences was found in N between phenotype M and phenotype E( P>0.05), while there was significant differences in N -CSA<5 between phenotype M and phenotype E( P=0.034). Conclusion:Biphasic quantitative CT analysis can reflect the heterogeneity of the functional small airways and pulmonary vascular abnormality in COPD with different phenotypes, and provide objective evidence for individualized diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a model created using clinical features and preoperative chest CT imaging features in predicting the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among patients diagnosed with lung cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical (age, gender, smoking history, smoking index, etc.) and imaging (lesion size, location, density, lobulation sign, etc.) data from 444 lung cancer patients confirmed by pathology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between June 2014 and March 2021. These patients were randomly divided into a training set (310 patients) and an internal test set (134 patients) using a 7∶3 ratio through the random function in Python. Based on the results of pulmonary function tests, the patients were further categorized into two groups: lung cancer combined with COPD and lung cancer non-COPD. Initially, univariate analysis was performed to identify statistically significant differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups. The variables showing significance were then included in the logistic regression analysis to determine the independent factors predicting lung cancer combined with COPD, thereby constructing the clinical model. The image features underwent a filtering process using the minimum absolute value convergence and selection operator. The reliability of these features was assessed through leave-P groups-out cross-validation repeated five times. Subsequently, a radiological model was developed. Finally, a combined model was established by combining the radiological signature with the clinical features. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) curves were plotted to evaluate the predictive capability and clinical applicability of the model. The area under the curve (AUC) for each model in predicting lung cancer combined with COPD was compared using the DeLong test.Results:In the training set, there were 182 cases in the lung cancer combined with COPD group and 128 cases in the lung cancer non-COPD group. The combined model demonstrated an AUC of 0.89 for predicting lung cancer combined with COPD, while the clinical model achieved an AUC of 0.82 and the radiological model had an AUC of 0.85. In the test set, there were 78 cases in the lung cancer combined with COPD group and 56 cases in the lung cancer non-COPD group. The combined model yielded an AUC of 0.85 for predicting lung cancer combined with COPD, compared to 0.77 for the clinical model and 0.83 for the radiological model. The difference in AUC between the radiological model and the clinical model was not statistically significant ( Z=1.40, P=0.163). However, there were statistically significant differences in the AUC values between the combined model and the clinical model ( Z=-4.01, P=0.010), as well as between the combined model and the radiological model ( Z=-2.57, P<0.001). DCA showed the maximum net benifit of the combined model. Conclusion:The developed synthetic diagnostic combined model, incorporating both radiological signature and clinical features, demonstrates the ability to predict COPD in patients with lung cancer.

Objective To explore the feasibility of individual identification based on the 2D-3D face image superimposition in Han individuals.Methods The 2D video surveillance images(including front,left and right side)and high-precision 3D face models of 10 Han individuals were collected,and Autodesk 3ds Max 2018 software was used to perform perspective matching on the 3D face models,and superimposed them on the 2D images,and the mean values of the distances between corresponding 11 feature points in the 2D-3D face images were calculated.The superimposition of 2D-3D face images from the same individual was defined as the matching group,and the superimposition of 2D-3D face images from different individuals was defined as the non-matching group.Results In general,the average distance ranges of the corresponding feature points between the matching group and the non-matching group did not overlap(P<0.05).Conclusion The non-overlapping mean range preliminarily indicates that the individual identification method based on the overlay comparison of 2D-3D face images described in this paper is feasible for Han individuals.
