Objective:To investigate the recognition of the post competency index system among rural general practice assistant physicians and its influencing factors.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. A questionnaire survey on the recognition of post competency index system was conducted from October 2020 to September 2021 among rural general practice assistant physicians from 10 provinces/municipalities selected by stratified cluster sampling method. The recognition of rural general practice assistant physicians at all levels of indexs and the factors influencing recognition were analyzed.Results:A total of 1 123 questionnaires were distributed and 1 024 valid ones were collected with a recovery rate of 91.18%. Of the 1 024 respondents, 529 were male(51.7%) and 435 were aged 40-49 years(42.5%), which was the highest proportion by age group. The average overall recognition score of the index system was 4.41, and the scores of the primary indexes were 4.32-4.45. Three primary indexes had the highest recognition scores: professional competence, basic health care services, and interpersonal communication and teamwork. The recognition scores on the second level index were 4.18-4.61, and the proportion of recognition scores greater than 4 was over 80%. There were significant differences in the recognition scores of the index system among assistant physicians with different working years, educational background, professional title and work unit ( F/H=6.41, 14.83, 12.45, 7.53, P<0.01). Educational background(associate degree: B=0.091, P=0.015; bachelor degree and above: B=0.196, P<0.001) and professional title(intermediate professional title and above: B=-0.234, P<0.001) were the independent factors influencing the recognition degree of the index system for rural general practice assistant physicians. Conclusions:The post competency index system is generally recognized by rural general practice assistant physician, and academic qualifications and professional title status may influence its recognition.

Objective:To evaluate the application feasibility of the post competency index system of rural general practice assistant physicians, and to analyze and compare the post competency of rural general practice assistant physicians with different characteristics through a survey among rural general practice assistant physicians in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. A questionnaire survey was conducted among rural general practice assistant physicians in 10 provinces/municipalities selected by stratified cluster sampling method from October 2020 to September 2021. The post competency scores were self-evaluated based on the post competency index system of rural general practice assistant physicians. The results of the survey were analyzed and the application feasibility of the index system was evaluated.Results:A total of 1 123 questionnaires were distributed and 1 024 valid questionnaires were returned with a recovery rate of 91.2%. Of the 1 024 respondents, 529 were males (51.7%), 435 were aged 40-49 years (42.5%), 434 had a secondary school education or less (42.4%), and 531 were junior practitioners (51.9%). The Cronbach′s α coefficient of the overall questionnaire was 0.987, and the Cronbach′s α coefficient of the first level index ranged from 0.897 to 0.974. The cumulative variance contribution rate of exploratory factor analysis was 72.012%. The confirmatory factor analysis showed χ2/ df=3.926, RMSEA=0.076, CFI=0.858, IFI=0.859, indicating that the model fit was basically good. The average self-evaluation scores of the first level index ranged from 3.95 to 4.25, and the average self-evaluation scores of the second level index ranged from 3.74 to 4.36. There were significant differences in self-evaluation scores of post competency among rural general practice assistant physicians with different working years, professional titles, working units and economic regions( F=4.67, 10.54, 22.16 and 20.90,all P<0.05). People with low self-evaluation scores of post competency had the following characteristics: working 10-19 years, intermediate or above titles, working in community health service centers, located in the eastern region.People with high self-evaluation scores of post competency had the following characteristics: primary professional title, working in the village clinic. Conclusion:The competency index system of rural general practice assistant physicians has good application feasibility,and it can be used to evaluate post competency for the education and training of rural general practice assistant physicians.

Objective:To investigate the current implementation status of early essential newborn care (EENC) core interventions in China.Methods:Based on the Safe Neonatal Project jointly launched by the National Health Commission and United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF), a questionnaire survey was conducted on the implementation of eight EENC core interventions in 161 pilot hospitals. The eight interventions were skin-to-skin contact immediately after birth for at least 90 min, delayed cord clamping (until 1 min after birth or after the cord stopped pulsating), initiation of breastfeeding within the first hour after birth, exclusive breastfeeding at discharge, delayed first bath (24 h after birth), kangaroo mother care, eye care (using erythromycin ointment or other eye drops), and intramuscular injection of vitamin K 1. The survey was completed by the pilot units based on actual conditions from January 1 to December 31, 2022. Neonatal disease information was obtained from medical records from birth to discharge, and neonatal mortality rates were obtained from outpatient and inpatient records in obstetric institutions. The main indicators were the implementation rates of EENC core interventions in the eastern, central, and western regions, as well as the neonatal mortality and the incidence of common neonatal diseases in hospitals that implemented EENC or not. Chi-square test was used for data comparison. Results:A total of 156 pilot hospitals completed the survey, with 66 (42.3%) in the eastern region, 45 (28.8%) in the central region, and 45 (28.8%) in the western region. The implementation rates of skin-to-skin contact immediately after birth for at least 90 min, initiation of breastfeeding within the first hour after birth, exclusive breastfeeding at discharge, kangaroo mother care, eye care, and intramuscular injection of vitamin K 1 were higher in the western region than in the eastern and central regions [60.1% (62 491/104 012) vs. 22.4% (104 991/467 982) and 29.4% (31 419/106 812), 76.5% (78 188/102 266) vs. 41.2% (188 740/458 627) and 62.9% (67 200/106 812), 74.0% (60 062/81 141) vs. 39.7% (181 921/458 627) and 70.2% (74 947/106 812), 27.9% (1 407/5 035) vs. 9.4% (1 670/17 807) and 22.9% (2 510/10 968), 46.9% (48 442/103 313) vs. 23.0% (105 917/461 176) and 31.4% (31 731/100 966), 96.2% (51 674/53 729) vs. 56.6% (263 273/465 433) and 92.1% (98 365/106 812), χ 2 values were 58 218.40, 50 113.04, 55 466.24, 1 456.92, 24 686.13, and 72 696.66, respectively, all P<0.001]. The implementation rates of delayed cord clamping and delayed first bath were higher in the central region than in the eastern and western regions [76.9% (82 161/106 812) vs. 37.0% (163 808/443 285) and 59.3% (60 596/102 266), 75.0% (80 159/106 812) vs. 46.6% (216 935/465 433) and 68.4% (71 161/104 012), χ 2 values were 62 516.10 and 37 987.11, respectively, both P<0.001]. Seventy-six hospitals (48.7%) implemented EENC, while 80 hospitals (51.3%) did not. The neonatal mortality and the incidence of neonatal asphyxia, sepsis, pneumonia, diarrhea, eye infection, and umbilical cord infection were higher in the hospitals that did not implement EENC than in those that did [1.3‰ (478/378 519) vs. 1.0‰ (645/679 795), 1.8% (6 849/378 519) vs. 0.9% (5 895/679 795), 1.0% (3 917/378 519) vs. 0.7% (5 029/679 795), 6.2% (23 481/377 890) vs. 3.8% (25 463/679 795), 0.2% (916/378 519) vs. 0.1% (950/656 781), 0.5% (1 837/370 540) vs. 0.2% (1 403/656 949), 1.1‰ (422/375 149) vs. 0.6‰ (405/672 291), χ 2 values were 22.62, 1 766.11, 184.86, 2 832.09, 100.89, 866.59, and 64.94, respectively, all P<0.001]. Conclusions:About half of the pilot hospitals did not carry out EENC and the implementation of specific measures in hospitals carrying out EENC still needs to be improved. The implementation rate of EENC core measures is high in some regions, but there are regional differences.Neonatal health outcomes were better in hospitals with EENC than in hospitals without EENC.

Objective:To survey the competency characteristics of rural general practitioners using behavioral event interview.Methods:The competency characteristics of rural general practitioners were extracted by literature research method, and the behavior event interviews were conducted with 18 rural general practitioners nationwide from January to April 2019. According to the interview results, the items were modified and refined. On this basis, the benchmark competencies and excellent competencies of rural general practitioners were extracted.Results:A total of 45 885-second audio recordings and 174 523-word transcripts were obtained from the interviews. Eight identification competencies and 10 benchmark competencies were extracted. Identification competencies included "professionalism, altruism and dedication, love and compassion, visiting a patient at home, establishing good relationships, achievement-oriented, having expertise, and mastering community population dynamics and health status actively". Benchmark competencies included "diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, basic medical skills, learning consciousness and ability, solving medical problems with traditional Chinese medicine, health care for focal groups, rational administration of drug, referral services, managing chronic non communicable diseases, understanding health care system and related policies, and emergency treatment ability".Conclusions:This study preliminarily obtains the identification competencies and benchmark competencies of rural general practitioners. Managers can improve the service quality of rural general practitioners according to these elements.

Objective:To construct a post competency index system for rural general practice assistant physicians.Methods:On the basis of previous literature research and behavioral event interviews, the questionnaire of Delphi consultation was designed. Two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were conducted from October 2019 to January 2020 to develop an index system of post competency for rural general practice assistant physicians, and the analytic hierarchy process methods was used to calculate the weight of each index.Results:A total of 26 experts were included, with an average age of (48.7±8.6) years and an average working seniority of (22.8±8.8) years. After 2 rounds of consultation, the competency index system was developed, including 6 first level items and 60 seconds level items. The positive coefficient of experts in the 2 rounds was 87% and 100%, respectively; the expert authority coefficient was 0.7-1.0; the coordination coefficient was 0.312 and 0.241, respectively ( P<0.001). According to the order of weight, the first level items were basic medical and health services (0.311 1), basic public health services (0.196 0), medical knowledge and lifelong learning (0.196 0), interpersonal communication and team cooperation (0.138 6), professional quality (0.102 8), information utilization and management ability (0.055 5). The top 2 secondary indexes were clinical expertise (0.079 2), learning awareness and ability (0.055 3). The last 2 secondary indexes were achievement orientation (0.001 6) and inductive thinking (0.002 0). Conclusion:A post competency index system for rural general practice assistant physicians has been preliminary constructed in this study, which may provide reference for the selection, training and assessment of relevant medical workers.

Objective:To investigate the self-defect sensation and its influencing factors in patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains.Methods:A total of 183 patients scheduled for photodynamic therapy for port wine stains in our hospital were selected and investigated by online questionnaire. The data of the respondents were collected by means of online filling in the questionnaire star using the General Data Survey Scale and the Defect Perception Scale (FIS) at admission.Results:The total score of self-defect in 183 patients with bright red nevus treated by photodynamic therapy was higher than that of the domestic norm. Age ( t=4.19), place of residence ( F=14.90), co-resident ( F=3.21), education level ( F=4.39), marital status ( F=2.47), income level ( F=9.51) and occupation ( F=5.82) had significantly related with the level of self-deficiency of patients ( P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis indicated that residence and income level were the main factors affecting patients′ sense of self-deficiency ( F=4.96, P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall self-defect sense of 183 patients with port wine stains treated with photodynamic therapy in this survey is more serious, their own comprehensive conditions and family structure will affect the self-defect sense of patients with port wine stains. We should pay special attention to the mental health of patients from municipal cities and low-income levels, timely carry out clinical nursing education and psychological guidance, jointly improve the compliance and cooperation of patients with treatment, and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Nerve regeneration in adult mammalian spinal cord is poor because of the lack of intrinsic regeneration of neurons and extrinsic factors - the glial scar is triggered by injury and inhibits or promotes regeneration. Recent technological advances in spatial transcriptomics (ST) provide a unique opportunity to decipher most genes systematically throughout scar formation, which remains poorly understood. Here, we first constructed the tissue-wide gene expression patterns of mouse spinal cords over the course of scar formation using ST after spinal cord injury from 32 samples. Locally, we profiled gene expression gradients from the leading edge to the core of the scar areas to further understand the scar microenvironment, such as neurotransmitter disorders, activation of the pro-inflammatory response, neurotoxic saturated lipids, angiogenesis, obstructed axon extension, and extracellular structure re-organization. In addition, we described 21 cell transcriptional states during scar formation and delineated the origins, functional diversity, and possible trajectories of subpopulations of fibroblasts, glia, and immune cells. Specifically, we found some regulators in special cell types, such as Thbs1 and Col1a2 in macrophages, CD36 and Postn in fibroblasts, Plxnb2 and Nxpe3 in microglia, Clu in astrocytes, and CD74 in oligodendrocytes. Furthermore, salvianolic acid B, a blood-brain barrier permeation and CD36 inhibitor, was administered after surgery and found to remedy fibrosis. Subsequently, we described the extent of the scar boundary and profiled the bidirectional ligand-receptor interactions at the neighboring cluster boundary, contributing to maintain scar architecture during gliosis and fibrosis, and found that GPR37L1_PSAP, and GPR37_PSAP were the most significant gene-pairs among microglia, fibroblasts, and astrocytes. Last, we quantified the fraction of scar-resident cells and proposed four possible phases of scar formation: macrophage infiltration, proliferation and differentiation of scar-resident cells, scar emergence, and scar stationary. Together, these profiles delineated the spatial heterogeneity of the scar, confirmed the previous concepts about scar architecture, provided some new clues for scar formation, and served as a valuable resource for the treatment of central nervous system injury.

In 2016, a national one million general population cohort project was set up in China for the first time in "Precision Medicine Research" Key Project, National Key Research and Development Program of China, which consists of general population cohorts in seven areas in China. As one of the seven major areas in China, northeastern China has unique climate and specific dietary patterns, and population aging is serious in this area. And the burden of chronic and non-communicable diseases ranks tops in China. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a large general population cohort in northeastern China to explore the area specific exposure factors related to pathogenesis and prognosis of chronic and non-communicable diseases, develop new prevention strategies to reduce the burden of the diseases and improve the population health in northeastern China. In July 2018, the general population cohort study in northeastern China was launched, the study includes questionnaire survey, health examination and blood, urine and stool sample collection and detection in recruited participants. By now, the cohort has covered all age groups, and the baseline data of 115 414 persons have been collected. This paper summarizes the design and practice of the general population cohort study in northeastern China to provide reference for related research in China.
