Passing the hospital grading evaluation, establishing a tertiary-A specialized hospital for occupational diseases, enhancing hospital's internal quality and sustainable development, and continuously improving medical service quality are important measures to promote the high-quality development of hospitals. The evaluation standards for occupational disease specialized tertiary-A hospital require standardized, scientific, and sustainable management of medical equipment. Guangdong Province Hospital for Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment is the first tertiary-A hospital for occupational diseases specialized in Guangdong Province. Relative regulation on medical equipment management was systematically reviewed based on the requirement of tertiary-A specialized hospital for occupational diseases during hospital grading evaluation process. Building and completing the medical equipment management system, standardizing and strengthening government procurement management, completing the configuration management and safety management of large-scale medical equipment, strengthening the effectiveness analysis and evaluation of large equipment, enhancing training on medical equipment usage, establishing emergency allocation systems for first-aid and life support medical equipment, and forming a medical equipment quality and safety management team is the measure to systematically improve and implement each item in various regulation for the full lifecycle management of medical equipment. It provides vital support in passing the tertiary-A hospital evaluation for hospitals. During the hospital grading evaluation process, each issue identified in medical equipment management was addressed and improved. This process continuously enhanced the hospital's medical equipment management level, ensured the safe and effective use of medical equipment, and improved the quality of medical services, laying a solid foundation for the hospital to become a high level specialized medical institution for occupational diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical efficacy and health economic value of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) for the prenatal screening of common fetal chromosomal aneuploidies. METHODS: 10 612 pregnant women from October 2017 to December 2019 presented at the antenatal screening clinic of the General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University were selected as the study subjects. Results of NIPT and invasive prenatal diagnosis and follow-up outcome for the 10 612 pregnant women were retrospectively analyzed and compared. Meanwhile, NIPT data for two periods were analyzed for assessing the health economic value of NIPT as the second- or first-tier screening strategy for the prenatal diagnosis of fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13. RESULTS: The NIPT was successful in 10 528 (99.72%) subjects, with the sensitivity for fetal trisomies 21, 18 and 13 being 100%, 92.86% and 100%, and the positive predictive value (PPV) being 89.74%, 61.90% and 44.44%, respectively. The PPV of NIPT for sex chromosome aneuploidies was 34.21%. Except for one false negative case of trisomy 18, the negative predictive value for trisomy 21, trisomy 13 and other chromosomal abnormalities were 100%. For pregnant women with high risk by serological screening, advanced maternal age or abnormal ultrasound soft markers, NIPT has yielded a significantly increased high risk ratio. There was no statistical difference in the PPV of NIPT among pregnant women from each subgroup. NIPT would have higher health economic value as a second-tier screening until 2019, while compared to 2015 ~ 2017, its incremental cost-effectiveness ratio as a first-tier screening had declined clearly. CONCLUSION The screening efficacy of NIPT for trisomies 21, 18 and 13 for a mixed population is significantly better than conventional serological screening, but it is relatively low for sex chromosomal abnormalities. NIPT can also be recommended for populations with relatively high risks along with detailed pre- and post-test genetic counselling. From the perspective of health economics, except for open neural tube defects, it is possible for NIPT to replace the conventional serological screening in the future as its cost continues to decrease.

Objective To understand the characteristics of long-working hours exposure of medical staff,and analyze the impact of long-working hours exposure on mental health problems such as occupational stress,depression,fatigue accumulation,and insomnia.Methods The cluster random sampling method was used to select the medical staff of 12 tertiary general hospitals in Guangdong Province as the research subjects,and the"Core Scale of Occupational Stress Measurement"and other scales were used to evaluate their occupational mental health.Results The average working hours of medical staff per day were(8.99±2.18)h;2,094 people were exposed during long working hours,accounting for 78.96%.The results of binary logistics regression analysis showed that after excluding the influence of sociodemographic factors such as age,long working hours(weekly working hours greater than 40 h)were the risk factors for occupational stress,depressive symptoms and fatigue accumulation of medical staff(P<0.01),and the longer the working week,the higher the risk of occupational stress,depressive symptoms and fatigue accumulation.Weekly working hours greater than 48 hours are risk factors for insomnia(P<0.01).Conclusion Long working hours are common among delivery workers on food delivery platforms,and long working hours are a risk factor for occupational tension and fatigue.

Objective:To investigate the value of cystatin C (Cys-C) in the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) after radical nephrectomy and the predictive value for the prognosis of Cys-C based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR Cys-C) after surgery. Methods:The clinical data of 118 patients who underwent unilateral radical nephrectomy in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the diagnostic criteria of AKI, they were divided into AKI group of 75 cases and no-AKI group of 43 cases. AKI group was (62.7±10.7) years old, with 49 males and 26 females. The no-AKI group was (62.3±12.8) years old, with 21 males and 22 females. The urea nitrogen was (4.9±1.3) mmol/L, creatinine (75.7±14.5)μmol/L, Cys-C (0.85±0.22) mg/L, eGFR Cr(76.3±11.2)ml/(min·1.73m 2), and eGFR Cys-C(101.4±17.4)ml/(min·1.73m 2)in AKI group before operation.In no-AKI group, preoperative urea nitrogen was (4.9±1.5) mmol/L, creatinine (74.5±13.1)μmol/L, Cys-C (0.81±0.29) mg/L, eGFR Cr(78.6±12.5)ml/(min·1.73m 2), and eGFR Cys-C(99.3±18.8)ml/(min·1.73m 2), and there were no significant differences in the values of urea nitrogen, creatinine, Cys-C and eGFR between the two groups before surgery ( P>0.05). ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of urea nitrogen, creatinine, Cys-C, eGFR calculated based on creatinine and Cys-C at 48h after surgery, and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for AKI. The creatinine status of patients diagnosed with SPS was evaluated 6 months after surgery, based on the definition of Cys-C based eGFR being less than 70% of creatinine-based eGFR(SPS=eGFR Cys-C/ eGFR Cr≤0.7). Results:In AKI group, creatinine was(115.2±22.1)μumol/L, Cys-C (1.8±0.27) mg/L, eGFR Cr (51.6±9.6)ml/(min·1.73m 2), and eGFR Cys-C(43.4±8.5)ml/(min·1.73m 2)48 h after operation. The creatinine was(92.7±13.3)μmol/L, Cys-C(1.3±0.23) mg/L, eGFR Cr(62.2±11.3)ml/(min·1.73m 2), and eGFR Cys-C(61.5±9.5)ml/(min·1.73m 2) in no-AKI group, and difference were statistically significant between the two groups ( P<0.01). ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnosis of AKI. Creatinine, Cys-C, eGFR Cr and eGFR Cys-Cwere all of diagnostic value for AKI (all P<0.01), and AUC(Area under curve) were 0.809, 0.889, 0.761 and 0.925 respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve of eGFR Cys-C were 93.3%, 74.4% and 92.5% respectively. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that creatinine( OR=10.851, 95% CI 2.322-50.688, P=0.004), Cys-C( OR=10.016, 95% CI 2.306-43.362, P=0.001), eGFR Cr( OR=17.923, 95%CI 3.216-53.172, P=0.001) and eGFR Cys-C( OR=19.817, 95% CI 3.367-55.263, P=0.001)were all independent risk factors for AKI. The predictive accuracy of eGFR Cys-C, creatinine, Cys-C, eGFR Cr were 91.6%, 85.7%, 90.2%, 88.5%, respectively. There were 15 cases were confirmed SPS in the AKI group, and only 2 cases were confirmed SPS in the no-AKI group, indicating patients in the AKI group developed more SPS than those in the no-AKI group, with statistically significant difference(Kappa value was 5.22, P=0.02). The 6-month follow-up showed that the creatinine of confirmed SPS was (103.8±23.4)μmol/L and the creatinine of unconfirmed SPS was (86.8±27.2)μmol/L, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.01). Conclusions:eGFR Cys-C calculated based on Cys-C has high sensitivity in diagnosing AKI and has early diagnostic value. Patients diagnosed with SPS based on eGFR Cys-C had higher creatinine 6 months after surgery.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of calycosin-mediated glucoprotein130/Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription factor （GP130/JAK/STAT） signaling pathway on oxidative injury of astrocytes in spinal cord. MethodAstrocytes in rat spinal cord were isolated and identified by immunofluorescence detection of glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP）. The cells were respectively pre-treated with 5， 10， 20 μmol·L^-1 calycosin for 12 h， and then 100 μmol·L^-1 H₂O₂ （24 h） was added to induce oxidative injury. Cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was employed to detect cell proliferation and select the optimal concentration of calycosin. The following experimental groups were designed： control group， model group （100 μmol·L^-1 H₂O₂）， calycosin group （20 μmol·L^-1 calycosin）， calycosin + LY294002 group （20 μmol·L^-1 calycosin + 10 μmol·L^-1 LY294002）， and calycosin + Stattic group （20 μmol·L^-1 calycosin + 3 μmol·L^-1 Stattic）. CCK-8 assay and immunofluorescence method were used to detect the proliferation of cells and flow cytometry was applied to detect cell apoptosis and cycle. The protein expression of phosphorylated （p）-JAK2， p-STAT3， p-protein kinase B （Akt）， GP130， and interleukin-6 （IL-6） was detected by Western blotting. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group showed low proliferation activity and high apoptosis rate of cells （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， calycosin （20 μmol·L^-1） group displayed high proliferation activity and low apoptosis rate of cells （P<0.05）. Compared with calycosin （20 μmol·L^-1） group， both phosphatidylinosirtol-3-kinases （PI3K） inhibitor LY294002 and STAT3 inhibitor Stattic significantly reduced the proliferation activity and increased the apoptosis rate of cells （P<0.05）. The protein expression of p-JAK2， p-STAT3， p-Akt， GP130， and IL-6 in the model group was higher than that in the control group （P<0.05）， and the expression of the above indicators was lower in each treatment group than in the model group （P<0.05）. ConclusionCalycosin can promote the proliferation and inhibit the apoptosis of astrocytes with oxidative injury by inhibiting the phosphorylation of PI3K/Akt pathway and JAK2/STAT3 pathway.

A case of varicella pneumonia, hepatitis and pancreatitis after kidney transplantation was retrospectively analyzed. One week after kidney transplantation, the patient had a papule with pruritus, which was diagnosed as varicella by dermatologist as well as high-throughput sequencing. The patient was found to have pneumonia, hepatitis and pancreatitis. The individualized treatment regimen was used, including the dosage reduction of immunosuppressive agents, the blood drug concentration monitoring, antiviral therapy, anti-infection therapy, supportive treatment, and symptomatic alleviation for complications. The treatment was adjusted according to the indicators'variation. The timely review of the indicators and immunosuppressant blood concentration were performed to protect the transplanted kidney function, and the patient recovered in time. This rare case of postoperative complications of kidney transplantation were summarized and analyzed in order to accumulate clinical experience for the treatment of renal transplantation.

Objective:To investigate the application value of fixation mesh with suture anchor in the repair of parailiac hernia.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 5 patients with parailiac hernia who were admitted to Shaoxing People′s Hospital from March 2016 to February 2019 were collected. There were 4 males and 1 female, aged from 23 to 67 years, with a median age of 49 years. Patients underwent repair of parailiac hernia, in which mesh with suture anchor was fixed on the outside of the defect to the inner side of the ilium. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative conditions; (2) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination or telephone interview was conducted at postoperative 1 week, at postoperative 2 weeks, at postoperative 1, 3, 6 months, at postoperative 1 and 2 years, respectively. The follow-up was up to July 2019. During the follow-up, the conditions about drainage tube removal, incision infection, hernia recurrence, and chronic pain were observed. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range). Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions: 5 patients underwent surgeries successfully, without blood transfusion. The volume of intraoperative blood loss was 100 mL(range, 20-300 mL). The operation time and duration of drainage tube placement were (129±13)minutes and (13.8±1.9)days. Patients were discharged from hospital, without postoperative complications during the hospital stay. The duration of hospital stay was 13 days(range, 8-19 days). (2) Follow-up: patients were followed up for 4-39 months, with a median follow-up time of 16 months. One of the 5 patients was removed drainage tube during the hospital stay and other 4 patients were removed at the outpatient after discharge from the hospital. One patient felt numbness in the surgical site at postoperative 1 month without aggravation during the follow-up, and received no specific treatment. Four patients completed computed tomography examination at postoperative 6 months, without hernia recurrence. There was no incision infection or chronic pain.Conclusions:It is safe and effective to use fixation mesh with suture anchor in the repair of parailiac hernia.

How to reduce the use of immunosuppressant is one of the difficult problems to be solved in the field of organ transplantation. Cell therapy is considered as an effective solution to replace immunosuppressant with a promising clinical application. Regulatory dendritic cell (DCreg) has attracted widespread attention due to its ability to induce immune tolerance. Kidney is a solid and non-immune organ. Whether the particularity of body and the local microenvironment of recipients after renal transplantation affects the application of DCreg is the focus of research. In this article, the application of DCreg in renal transplantation was analyzed from the perspective of renal immunity.
