ObjectiveTo analyze the trend and influencing factors of low birth weight (LBW) among newborns in Chongming District of Shanghai from 2008 to 2022, so as to provide references for the development of intervention measures reducing the rate of LBW. MethodsBirth surveillance data of Chongming District of Shanghai from 2008 to 2022 were collected and organized, and the annual percentage change (APC) of LBW was calculated by using Joinpoint 5.0.2 software for trend change analysis. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of LBW. ResultsThe overall incidence of LBW was 3.71% in Chongming District, Shanghai from 2008 to 2022. Joinpoint trend analysis showed that the incidence of LBW in Chongming District had an upward trend (APC=5.49%, 95%CI: 3.31%‒7.72%, P<0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preterm birth, multiple births, female infants, birth defects, first pregnancy, primiparity, and a young father age (<20 years) were risk factors for LBW in Chongming District. Among the term infants, female infants, birth defects, and first pregnancy were risk factors for LBW (P<0.05). Female infants, birth defects, first pregnancy, primiparity, advanced maternal age (≥35 years), and a young father age (<20 years) were risk factors in singleton neonates. ConclusionThe incidence of LBW among newborns is on the rise in Chongming District of Shanghai. Therefore, high risk groups need to be identified, and prenatal check-ups and pregnancy care should be strengthened to reduce the risk of neonatal LBW.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status and influencing factors of hand hygiene practices among primary healthcare workers， and to provide a reference for improving hand hygiene behavior in primary healthcare institutions. MethodsA self-designed questionnaire was used to conduct a survey among medical staff of seven community health service centers in Jiading District， Shanghai， using a cluster random sampling method. The data collected were subjected to descriptive statistics， reliability and validity tests， correlation analysis， and structural equation model fitting. ResultsA statistical difference in hand hygiene compliance was found among medical staff with varying occupational types and educational levels （P<0.05）， and medical staff in clinical departments exhibited higher levels of hand hygiene compliance （P<0.05）. In the health belief model， among the core variables， healthcare workers’ perceived benefits， perceived barriers， and self-efficacy had a direct impact on hand hygiene behavior， with direct effect values of 0.341， -0.152， and 0.234， respectively. Meanwhile， cues to action and perceived severity of COVID-19 infection indirectly affected hand hygiene behavior， with an indirect effect value of 0.066 and 0.062， respectively. ConclusionHealthcare workers generally exhibit a high degree of hand hygiene compliance， but there are variations in hand hygiene scores among healthcare workers with different characteristics. Enhancing healthcare worders’ perception of benefits， action cues， and self-efficacy while reducing perceived barriers can effectively improve their hand hygiene behavior.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective The management of high-value medical consumables is a key challenge for healthcare institutions,yet medical record quality control(MRQC)is rarely applied in this area.This study aims to explore the role of MRQC in the management of high-value medical consumables.Methods A joint inspection team for MRQC was formed.Using the"High-Value Consumable Use Informed Consent Checklist,""High-Value Consumable Medical Record Sampling Statistics Table,""Surgical Operation Record Inspection Detail Table,"and"High-Value Medical Consumable Usage List Barcode Inspection Table,"we conducted random checks on the medical records of the top ten departments with high usage of these consumables.The main focus was on the informed consent forms,surgical operation records,barcode labeling of usage lists,and expense lists related to high-value medical consumables.We analyzed the consistency and compliance of registration information,informed consent forms,surgical records,and barcode labels,calculated defect rates for each indicator,identified causes of defects,and implemented quality improvements,including refining regulations and enhancing training;conducting reviews of high-value con-sumable medical records;initiating secondary management of high-value consumables;strengthening supervision;and establis-hing a long-term mechanism.Results Before improvements,the defect rates for informed consent forms,surgical records,and barcode labels were 13.3％,27.9％,and 42.7％,respectively.After improvements,these rates dropped to 1.4％,2.2％,and 1.6％.Comparisons of the three indicators before and after showed significant differences(P＜0.01).Conclusion The appli-cation of MRQC in managing high-value medical consumables is essential.Through medical record checks,we can achieve the"five checks and five correspondences"regarding the registration information of high-value medical consumables,informed con-sent forms,written records in surgical operation records,barcode labeling of usage lists,and expense lists.The key to successful implementation is thorough preparation before inspections,interdepartmental collaboration,problem-oriented self-assessment,strict discipline,and continuous improvement.

With the rapid development of radiotherapy technology, the therapeutic outcomes of tumor patients have improved significantly, enabling effective disease control. However, during radiotherapy, the skin as the first barrier of the human body is inevitably exposed to radiation, leading to superficial skin injury. This injury often manifests as blistering, cracking, bleeding, and ulceration, resulting in wounds that are difficult to heal and potentially affecting the effectiveness of the treatment. At present, the therapeutic effect of drugs on radiation-induced skin injury remains limited, and the development of new drugs depends on the elucidation of the mechanisms. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the mechanisms of radiation-induced skin injury. This article reviews these mechanisms, including DNA damage, oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and vascular damage and fibrosis, and summarizes the therapeutic drugs and targeted proteins in recent years, aiming to provide a reference for the further development and clinical application of drugs for radiation-induced skin injury.

Objective:To explore the current status of intrinsic capacity in elderly patients with hospitalization-associated disability (HAD) and explore its influencing factors.Methods:From November 2023 to January 2024, convenience sampling was used to select 203 elderly patients with HAD at Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University as the study subjects. A survey was conducted on elderly patients using the General Information Questionnaire, Fried Frailty Phenotype, Barthel Index, Social Support Rating Scale, and Intrinsic Capacity Assessment Tool. Binomial Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of intrinsic capacity in elderly patients with HAD.Results:A total of 203 questionnaires were distributed, and 199 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 98.03% (199/203). The total score of intrinsic capacity in 199 elderly patients with HAD was 5.00 (4.00, 6.00), with scores for cognitive dimension, psychological dimension, motor dimension, vitality dimension, and sensory dimension being 1.00 (1.00, 2.00), 2.00 (1.00, 2.00), 0 (0, 1.00), 1.00 (1.00, 1.00) and 1.00 (1.00, 1.00), respectively. The binomial Logistic regression showed that department of medicine and surgery, self-rating health status, social support, serum albumin, and Barthel Index were the influencing factors of intrinsic capacity in elderly patients with HAD ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The intrinsic capacity of elderly patients with HAD is at medium to low level, with the most severe impairment in the motor dimension. Medical and nursing staff should develop personalized rehabilitation measures for elderly HAD patients based on the influencing factors of their intrinsic capacity, enhance their intrinsic capacity, and reduce the burden of care on families and society.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and clinical diagnostic value of rapid arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging in brain glioma.Methods:Patients with glioma admitted to Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from May 2021 to December 2022 were prospectively enrolled. All patients received MR rapid ASL (scan time: 1 min) and conventional ASL (scan time: 4 min 30 s), where the cerebral blood flow (CBF) perfusion maps were obtained. The qualitative analysis of CBF signal intensity and quantitative analysis of average CBF values from both tumor solid and edema regions were conducted by two radiologists independently. Kappa test and intraclass correlation coefficient ( ICC) were used to analyze the consistency of qualitative and quantitative results, respectively. Results:A total of 30 patients with brain glioma were included. The 2 physicians used rapid ASL to determine low perfusion, isoperfusion, and hyperperfusion in the tumor area in 1, 6, 23 cases and 0, 5, and 25 cases, respectively; and used conventional ASL to determine low perfusion, isoperfusion, and hyperperfusion in the tumor area in 0, 9, and 21 cases, respectively. The results of qualitative analysis of rapid ASL and conventional ASL were highly consistent within and between groups ( Kappa was 0.830 and 0.850 respectively). The results of quantitative analysis of rapid ASL and conventional ASL were highly consistent within and between groups ( ICC 0.940—0.994). Conclusion:Rapid ASL with shorter scanning time could be applied in assessing tissue perfusion in brain glioma and contribute to the clinical diagnosis of gliomas.

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) refers to the simultaneous treatment of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and the effect of radiotherapy is enhanced with low-dose chemotherapy, which can reduce tumor recurrence and metastasis and improve clinical prognosis of patients. At present, the main factors for the increase of radiosensitivity of concurrent chemotherapy is that concurrent chemotherapy prevents the repair of tumor cells, and chemotherapy and radiotherapy act on different cell cycles and have synergistic effects. However, even for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) who have undergone CCRT, the 5-year survival rate is only 60%, which is still not ideal. In order to improve the efficacy, researchers have conducted a series of exploratory studies, which consist of the combination of targeted drugs and immunodrugs, and neoadjuvant regimens before CCRT, etc. Although targeted or immunologic drugs are effective treatment of LACC, in view of the lack of large-scale evidence-based medical evidence, multi-center prospective and randomized phase III clinical trials and high-level articles are needed to improve the level of evidence-based medicine. This consensus summarizes several key evidence-based medical studies published recently, especially the clinical research progress in targeted and immunological therapies, providing reference for domestic peers.

Objective:To perform harmonization based on the ComBat method for PET brain imaging scanned by different types of scanners from the same manufacturer and explored its effect on center effect.Methods:The three-dimensional (3D) Hoffman brain model was scanned by two different PET/CT instruments (Siemens Biograph64 TruePoint and Biograph128 mCT). Fourteen healthy subjects (8 males, 6 females, age: (57.7±9.5) years) underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT on Siemens Biograph64 TruePoint and 12 healthy subjects (9 males, 3 females, age: (55.8±10.5) years) underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT on Siemens Biograph128 mCT (all from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University; from November 2020 to March 2023). The whole brain was divided into 116 brain regions based on the anatomical automatic labeling (AAL) brain template. The ComBat method was applied to harmonized the PET data from brain model and healthy subjects. Mann-Whitney U test was performed on the radioactive counts and SUV ratios (SUVR) before and after homogenization acquired by both PET/CT instruments. Voxel-based statistical parametric mapping (SPM) independent-sample t test was also performed on data of healthy subjects. Results:In 3D Hoffman brain model, radioactivity counts (5 590.33(4 961.67, 6 102.95) vs 6 116.03(5 420.97, 6 660.66); z=-9.35, P<0.001) and SUVR (1.35(1.19, 1.47) vs 1.37(1.21, 1.49); z=-3.63, P<0.001) were significantly different between the two PET/CT scanners before harmonization and not after harmonization (radioactivity counts: 5 845.95(5 192.68, 6 378.63) vs 5 859.17(5 193.84, 6 380.52); SUVR: 1.35(1.20, 1.48) vs 1.36(1.20, 1.49); both z=-0.68, both P=0.498). In the healthy subjects, radioactive counts in 19 brain regions (12 422.78(11 181.60, 13 424.28)-18 166.40(15 882.80, 18 666.27); z values: from -3.24 to -2.06, all P<0.05) and SUVR in 40 brain regions (1.46(1.41, 1.52)-2.28(2.16, 2.36); z values: from -3.65 to -1.70, all P<0.05) were significantly different between the two scanners before harmonization, while after homogenization there were no statistical differences for all 116 brain regions (radioactivity counts: 9 243.55(8 502.38, 9 854.87)-20 419.60(19 931.51, 21 179.43); z values: from -0.72 to 0, all P>0.05; SUVR: 1.04(1.01, 1.09)-2.32(2.24, 2.40); z values: from -0.82 to 0, all P>0.05). SPM showed that significant differences of glucose metabolism in the cerebral cortex, basal ganglia, midbrain and cerebellum were found in healthy subjects between the two PET/CT scanners before homogenization, and brain regions with obvious differences reduced after homogenization. Conclusion:ComBat harmonization method is efficient at removing the center effect among different types of PET/CT scanners from the same manufacturer and may provide a simple and easy-to-implement homogenization for multicenter brain imaging studies.
