OBJECTIVE To evaluate the possible effects of Cefuroxime sodium for injection/Sodium chloride injection （referred to as “Cefuroxime powder-liquid dual-chamber bag”） or Cefuroxime sodium for injection （referred to as “Cefuroxime powder injection”） used in perioperative patients on hospital costs under the background of medical insurance payment reform from the perspective of the hospital. METHODS Assuming that the effectiveness and safety of Cefuroxime powder-liquid dual-chamber bag （scenario 1） and Cefuroxime powder injection （scenario 2） were the same for perioperative patients， the cost-effectiveness of both scenarios was compared by calculating the costs of drug， infusion sets， and labor in the pharmacy intravenous admixture service. The robustness of the results was explored through univariate sensitivity analysis and different centralized procurement share scenarios analysis. RESULTS The base-case analysis showed that the average cost per treatment course for patients using cefuroxime in scenario 1 and scenario 2 were 314.54 yuan and 349.41 yuan， respectively， meaning scenario 1 saved 34.87 yuan per capita compared to scenario 2. The univariate sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis indicated that the research results were robust. CONCLUSIONS The application of Cefuroxime powder-liquid dual-chamber bag in perioperative patients can save medical costs while ensuring the quality and efficiency of medical services， compared to Cefuroxime powder injection.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of vitamin D analogue for postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China. METHODS A Markov microsimulation model was developed to analyze the clinical and economic outcomes of eldecalcitol， alfacalcidol and calcitriol for postmenopausal osteoporosis from the healthcare system perspective in China. The clinical parameters required for the model were derived from network meta-analysis， while cost and utility data were primarily obtained from the literature. The cycle length was 1 year ， the time horizon was life time， and the willingness-to-pay threshold was 0.5 times the gross domestic product per capita in China in 2023（44 679 yuan/QALY）. Model uncertainty was tested with one-way sensitivity analysis， probabilistic sensitivity analysis， and scenario analysis. RESULTS The quality-adjusted life years （QALYs） for eldecalcitol were calculated to be 12.03 QALYs， which were higher than those for alfacalcidol （11.94 QALYs） and calcitriol （11.92 QALYs）. Meanwhile， the direct medical cost associated with eldecalcitol treatment amounted to 38 805 yuan， which was lower than that of alfacalcidol （45 173 yuan） and calcitriol （45 821 yuan）. The results of the one-way sensitivity analysis showed that the risk ratio of hip fracture and vertebral fracture had a significant impact on the result. The probabilistic sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis showed the robustness of the findings from the base-case analysis. CONCLUSIONS Compared with alfacalcidol and calcitriol， eldecalcitol is likely to be a cost-effective treatment for postmenopausal osteoporotic women in China.

Objective:To study the risk factors of venous thromboembolism(VTE)and the predictive value of the improved VTE score model to identify the risk of VTE in gynecological surgery patients.Methods:From Janu-ary 1,2020 to December 31,2022,41 patients with VTE after gynecological surgery were selected as the VTE group,and a total of 164 patients with adjacent gynecological surgeries during the same period were selected as the non-VTE group with a ratio of 1 :4.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to ana-lyze the risk factors of VTE after gynecological surgery,and a modified VTE risk factor rapid assessment model(referred to as the improved VTE score model)was constructed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to study the predictive value for VTE for in gynecological surgery,and compared with the Caprini score model(Caprini table for short).Results:①Multivatiate Logistic regression analysis showed that there were independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery(OR＞1,P＜0.05),including age≥60 years,BMI≥28 kg/m2,malignant tumors,surgery time＞3 hours,history of thrombosis,and the increased D-di-mer difference before and after surgery.②The Area under Curve(AUC)of ROC was 0.963 in the improved VTE score model with a Youden index 81.10％,sensitivity 87.80％and specificity 93.29％.The AUC of the Caprini score model was 0.888 with Youden index 63.41％,sensitivity 73.17％and specificity 90.24％.The improved VTE score model the Caprini score model identified 92.68％and 85.37％of VTE patients as high-risk or ex-tremely high-risk,respectively,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:More attention should be paid to the six independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery.The two score models showed a similar identified level.However,the improved VTE score model is more simple and easier to operate,has better practicality,and has certain clinical promotion value.

Objective To investigate the value of enhanced CT radiomics combined with CT features model(combined model)for differentiating squamous cell carcinoma(SNSCC)and sinonasal lymphoma(SL).Methods Totally 68 patients with SNSCC and 63 patients with SL were retrospectively collected and divided into training set(n=92,including 48 SNSCC and 44 SL)and verification set(n=39,including 20 SNSCC and 19 SL)at the ratio of 7:3.Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze clinical data and CT manifestations in training set,and the independent predictive factors for differentiating SNSCC and SL were screened and used to construct a CT features model.Based on enhanced venous phase CT of training set,the best radiomics features of lesions were extracted and screened.The radiomics model was then established,and the radiomics label was calculated.The combined model was finally constructed based on CT model and radiomics labels,and its nomogram was drawn.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve were drawn,and the areas under the curve(AUC)were calculated to evaluate the efficacy of each model for differentiating SNSCC and SL.Calibration and decision curve analysis were used to evaluate the calibration efficacy and clinical benefit of the obtained combined model.Results The primary location of the lesion and bone invasion showed on CT were both independent predictive factors for SNSCC and SL(both P＜0.05),and CT model was constructed.Based on enhanced venous phase CT,3 best radiomics features were selected to establish the radiomics model.The AUC of CT,radiomics and combined model in training set was 0.895,0.730 and 0.925,respectively,and significant differences of AUC were found among 3 models(Z=-3.964 to-1.833,all P＜0.05).The AUC of CT,radiomics and combined model in verification set was 0.845,0.684 and 0.868,respectively,of combined model was greater than of radiomics model(Z=-2.568,P=0.010).The combined model had good calibration.Taken 15％-62％ and 85％-92％ as the thresholds in training set and 88％ to 95％ in validation set,the clinical net benefit of combined model was high.Conclusion The obtained enhanced CT radiomics combined with CT features model could be used to effectively differentiate SNSCC and SL.

Objective To investigate the relationships of nutritional status and length of stay (LOS) with phase angle (PA) in patients with severe craniocerebral injury. Methods A total of 100 patients [Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score ≤8 points] admitted outside the department of neurology were selected as study objects. Body composition analysis and blood samples were used to determine the intracellular and extracellular water content, skeletal muscle, PA, prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and LOS. Patients were divided into low PA group (n=42) and normal PA group (n=58) based on PA values. Body composition related indexes, PNI and LOS were compared between the two groups. The correlation between PA and each index was analyzed. The influencing factors of malnutrition were analyzed. The influencing factors of malnutrition were analyzed. Results Intracellular water, total body water, body cell content and PNI in the low PA group were significantly lower, and LOS was significantly longer than that in the normal PA group (P < 0.05). PA was positively correlated with intracellular water, extracellular water, total body water, skeletal muscle, body cell content, bone mineral content, basal metabolic rate and PNI (P < 0.05), while PA was negatively correlated with LOS (P < 0.05). PA (OR=5.441, P=0.001, 95%CI, 2.011 to 14.719) and LOS (OR=8.373, P < 0.001, 95%CI, 3.079 to 22.765) were the influential factors in the occurrence of malnutrition. Conclusion PA is significantly correlated with nutritional status and LOS in patients with severe craniocerebral injury.

Objectives:To explore obesity prevalence and its association with dietary patterns among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition in Qinghai Province.Methods:Using an open cohort study design, 1 003 subjects were enrolled at baseline in 2018, 599 were followed up, and 1 012 were newly recruited in 2022. A total of 1 913 adults over 18 years were included in the study, and a questionnaire survey and health examination were conducted. Factor analysis was used to identify dietary patterns, and a mixed-effects model was used to analyze the association between dietary patterns and obesity.Results:From 2018 to 2022, the prevalence rates of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 27.6%, 33.8%, and 54.6%, respectively. Age-sex-standardized prevalence of obesity and central obesity increased. Three dietary patterns were identified: the modern pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of pork, poultry, processed meat, fresh fruits, sugary drinks, salty snacks, etcetera; the urban pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of refined carbohydrates, beef and mutton, vegetables and eggs, etcetera; and pastoral pattern featured frequent consumption of tsamba, Tibetan cheese, buttered/milk tea, and whole-fat dairy products. After adjusting for demographic characteristics, socioeconomic status, and lifestyle factors, compared with the T1, subjects in the T3 of urban pattern scores were more likely to be overweight ( OR=2.09, 95% CI: 1.10-3.95) and overweight/obese ( OR=1.23, 95% CI: 1.00-1.51), whereas those in the T3 of pastoral pattern scores had a lower risk of overweight ( OR=0.45, 95% CI: 0.24-0.84), obesity ( OR=0.81, 95% CI: 0.69-0.95), overweight/obesity ( OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.61-0.91) and central obesity ( OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.38-0.89). Conclusions:Prevalence of obesity and central obesity was high among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition. Urban dietary pattern was a risk factor for overweight and overweight/obesity, whereas pastoral dietary pattern was a protective factor for overweight, obesity, overweight/obesity, and central obesity. Tailored interventions are needed to improve local people's health.

OBJECT IVE To evaluate the efficacy ，safety and cost-effectiveness of Qili qiangxin capsule in the treatment of chronic heart failure ，and provide reference for drug selection and evaluation in relevant institutions. METHODS Meta-analysis was performed to investigate clinical efficacy and safety of Qili qiangxin capsule combined with routine treatment （combined treatment group）versus routine treatment （routine treatment group ）in the treatment of chronic heart failure. From the perspective of Chinese health care system ，a decision tree model was constructed. The time horizon of the model was 1 year. The effective rate obtained by meta-analysis was taken as the effect parameter ，and the total cost was calculated by drug cost and hospitalization cost ，to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of combined treatment versus routine treatment in the treatment of chronic heart failure. Subgroup analysis was carried out according to the course of treatment and literature quality ，and one-way sensitivity analysis and probability sensitivity analysis were adopted to check the robustness of basic analysis results. RESULTS Total of 72 literatures involving 9 575 patients were included in meta-analysis. Results of meta-analysis showed that effective rate ，left ventricular ejection fraction ， N-terminal fragment of the prohomone brain-type natriuretic peptide and 6 minute walking distance in combined treatment group were all better than those of routine treatment group ， while its safety was similar to routine therapy. The results of cost-effectiveness analysis showed that the cost of combined therapy was 1 867 yuan higher than that of routine therapy ，patients could get 0.016 QALYs more ，and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER）was 117 861 yuan/QALY. If only high-quality literature were included for meta-analysis and the effectiveness parameters were obtained ，the ICERs of the combined therapy versus routine therapy were 102 162 yuan/QALY（based on all high-quality literature ）and 72 354 yuan/QALY（based on high-quality literature with treatment course of 24 weeks）. The results of the probability sensitivity analysis showed that taking twice China ’s per capita gross domestic product in 2020 as the willingness to pay threshold ，the probability of cost-effectiveness for Qili qiangxin capsule combined with routine therapy was 67.1％ . CONCLUSIONS Compared with routine therapy ，Qili qiangxin capsule combined with routine therapy has better clinical efficacy ，equivalent safety and cost-effective.

Objective:To study the safety and efficacy of hiatal hernia-endoscopic submucosal dissection (HH-ESD) for the treatment of giant hiatal hernia (>3 cm in length) complicated with refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).Methods:Patients with giant hiatal hernia complicated with refractory GERD who voluntarily received HH-ESD at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of the Affiliated People's Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from April 2018 to March 2020 were included in the clinical study. The completion of HH-ESD and the occurrence of complications were observed, and the changes of indicators before and after the treatment were observed, including gastroesophageal reflux disease-health related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) score, gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GERD-Q) score, endoscopy results, 24 h esophageal pH monitoring results, esophageal high-resolution manometry results and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) usage.Results:Data of 10 patients were collected during the study, with a medical history of 2-10 years. All patients successfully underwent HH-ESD treatment. No adverse events such as perforation and massive bleeding occurred during the operation, and the hospital stay was 6-12 days. Dysphagia occurred in 3 cases after the operation, which was relieved spontaneously within 3 or 6 months. The preoperative GERD-HRQL scores ranged from 19 to 29, which were reduced to 0-14 and 0-8 at 3 and 12 months after the operation, respectively. The preoperative GERD-Q score was 9-17, and the scores at 3 and 12 months after the operation were all 6-9, which were significantly lower than those before. Gastroscopy showed that esophagitis was improved in all patients, hernia sac was reduced, and Hill grade was reduced compared with that before. The preoperative DeMeester score was 30.3-247.1, and the postoperative 12-month score was 0.2-29.9, which was significantly lower than that before. The long diameter of hiatal hernia was 3.0-6.0 cm before the operation and 0-5.0 cm at 12 months after, which was smaller than that before. At 12 months of the follow-up, 7 patients had stopped PPI, and the remaining 3 had changed to intermittent oral PPI.Conclusion:Preliminary results show that HH-ESD is safe and effective for the treatment of giant hiatal hernia complicated with refractory GERD.
