Guided by the turbidity toxin theory, it is believed that the key pathogenesis of constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome is the obstruction of turbidity toxin and the disruption of intestinal function. Treatment is based on the principles of dispelling turbidity toxin and promoting intestinal function. The clinical patterns can be divided into three types, turbidity toxin heat accumulation pattern, turbidity toxin combined with liver depression and qi stagnation pattern, and turbidity toxin combined with qi and yin deficiency pattern. The treatment can respectively use self-prescribed Tongfu Jiangzhuo Formula (通腑降浊方) to clear heat and unblock the bowels, direct the turbid downward and resolve toxins; use self-prescribed Shugan Jiangzhuo Formula (疏肝降浊方) to soothe the liver and move qi, direct the turbid downward and resolve toxins; use self-prescribed Mazhi Jiangzhuo Formula (麻枳降浊方) to boost qi and nourish yin, moisten the intestines to remove turbidity and resolve toxins.

Objective:To establish a risk predictive model nomogram of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients by combining urinary tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), and to verify the predictive value of the model.Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. The patients with acute respiratory failure or circulatory disorder admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from November 2017 to April 2020 were enrolled. The patients were enrolled within 24 hours of ICU admission, and their general conditions and relevant laboratory test indicators were collected. At the same time, urine was collected to determine the levels of biomarkers TIMP2 and IGFBP7, and TIMP2·IGFBP7 was calculated. Patients were divided into non-AKI and AKI groups according to whether grade 2 or 3 AKI occurred within 12 hours after enrollment. The general clinical data and urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 levels of patients between the two groups were compared. The indicators with P < 0.1 in univariate analysis were included in the multivariate Logistic regression analysis to obtain the independent risk factors for grade 2 or 3 AKI within 12 hours in critical patients. An AKI risk predictive model nomogram was established, and the application value of the model was evaluated. Results:A total of 206 patients were finally enrolled, of whom 54 (26.2%) developed grade 2 or 3 AKI within 12 hours of enrollment, and 152 (73.8%) did not. Compared with the non-AKI group, the patients in the AKI group had higher body mass index (BMI), pre-enrollment serum creatinine (SCr), urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 and proportion of using vasoactive drugs, and additional exposure to AKI (use of nephrotoxic drugs before enrollment) was more common. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.23, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.10-1.37, P = 0.000], pre-enrollment SCr ( OR = 1.01, 95% CI was 1.00-1.02, P = 0.042), use of nephrotoxic drugs ( OR = 2.84, 95% CI was 1.34-6.03, P = 0.007) and urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 ( OR = 2.19, 95% CI was 1.56-3.08, P = 0.000) was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of grade 2 or 3 AKI in critical patients. An AKI risk predictive model nomogram was constructed based on the independent risk factors of AKI. Bootstrap validation results showed that the model had good discrimination and calibration in internal validation. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 alone in predicting grade 2 or 3 AKI within 12 hours in critical patients was 0.74 (95% CI was 0.66-0.83), the optimal cut-off value was 1.40 (μg/L) 2/1?000 (sensitivity was 66.7%, specificity was 85.0%), and the predictive performance of the model incorporating urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 was significantly better than that of the model without urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 [AUC (95% CI): 0.85 (0.79-0.91) vs. 0.77 (0.70-0.84), P = 0.005], net reclassification index (NRI) was 0.29 (95% CI was 0.08-0.50, P = 0.008), integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) was 0.13 (95% CI was 0.07-0.19, P < 0.001). Conclusion:The AKI risk predictive model based on urinary TIMP2·IGFBP7 has high clinical value and is expected to be used to early predict the occurrence of AKI in critically ill patients.

Objective:To explore the utilization of cancer-related data from basic medical insurance databases in China, and promote the application of medical insurance data in cancer prevention and treatment.Methods:Database PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang, and CNKI were used to select related research papers using data from basic medical insurance system in China published by December 2021. Descriptive analysis was conducted in terms of the number of publications, types of cancer, primary research contents and author affiliations.Results:A total of 65 papers were included in the study. The number of publications increased rapidly after 2016. The most studied cancer type was lung cancer, and healthcare costs were the most common research contents. Fujian, Beijing, and Anhui have made a better use of cancer-related medical insurance databases compared to other provincial regions. The accessibility of the New Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme data was limited due to the high regional barriers, while the accessibility of the urban basic medical insurance data was relatively high. The researchers from Peking University and Fudan University had higher utilization of basic medical insurance data compared with those from other institutions.Conclusions:The utilization of cancer-related data from basic medical insurance databases in China is limited because of poor accessibility, insufficient data sharing, and regional restrictions. Thus, it is urgent to improve data accessibility and promote the integration and utilization of regional medical insurance data.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) in Jiangsu province during SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in China from December 7, 2022 to January 27, 2023, and to analyze the influencing factors of all-cause death.Methods:It was a multi-center cross-sectional investigation. Structured questionnaire was used to collect patient information by medical staff of each hemodialysis center (room) as investigators. Part of the demography data and laboratory examination data came from the Jiangsu Province Hemodialysis Data Information System. MHD patients from hemodialysis centers (rooms) at all levels of medical institutions and independent hemodialysis institutions in Jiangsu province during the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 infection were included, and the clinical characteristics and all-cause mortality of confirmed and suspected cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection were analyzed.Results:Questionnaire surveys and data analysis on 57 278 patients in 407 hemodialysis centers (rooms) were completed, accounting for 90.41% of the total number of MHD patients (63 357 cases) in Jiangsu province during the same period. There were 24 038 cases (41.97%) of SARS-CoV-2 infection and 14 805 cases (25.85%) of suspected infection, which were widely distributed in all dialysis centers in Jiangsu province. After clinical classification of 38 843 confirmed and suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection cases, 3 662 cases were severe and critical cases, accounting for 9.43% of the infected and suspected cases. Among the patients who had completed the questionnaires, there were 1 812 all-cause deaths, with an all-cause mortality rate of 3.16%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that elderly (taking ≤50 years as a reference, 51-59 years: OR=1.583, 95% CI 1.279-1.933, P=0.001; 60-69 years: OR=3.972, 95% CI 3.271-4.858, P<0.001; 70-79 years: OR=7.236, 95% CI 5.917-8.698, P<0.001; ≥80 years: OR=11.738, 95% CI 9.459-14.663, P<0.001), male ( OR=1.371, 95% CI 1.229-1.529, P<0.001), and co-infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) (positive serum HBV surface antigen, OR=0.629, 95% CI 0.484-0.817, P<0.001) were independent influencing factors for all cause mortality. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve for male, age and current HBV infection prediction of all-cause death was 0.529 ( P<0.001), 0.724 ( P<0.001) and 0.514 ( P=0.042), respectively, and the cut-off value for age prediction of all-cause death was 65.5 years old. Compared with patients without HBV infection, MHD patients with HBV infection significantly reduced the proportion of severe and critically ill patients, all-cause hospitalizations and all cause deaths when infected with SARS-CoV-2 (4.99% vs. 6.41%, χ2=6.136, P=0.013; 8.90% vs. 11.44%, χ2=11.662, P<0.001; 2.01% vs. 3.37%, χ2=10.713, P=0.001, respectively). Conclusion:The MHD patients in Jiangsu province are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2. Elderly age and male gender are independent risk factors for death in MHD patients during the epidemic, while the HBV infection may be a protective factor for death of MHD patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.
