Based on the analysis of the existing problems and implementation dilemmas in family doctor contracting and first-return-visits faced by primary medical institutions in China, the authors propose countermeasures to provide reference for managers of primary health care institutions.

Objective:To understand the breastfeeding situation in the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Qianxinan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, and to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of doctors and nurses regarding breastfeeding, aiming to provide foundational data for improving breastfeeding quality.Methods:A questionnaire was developed to survey the knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to breastfeeding in NICUs. The questionnaire was divided into three dimensions: knowledge (seven items, total score of 7), attitudes (nine items, total score of 45), and practices (seven items, total score of 35). Lower scores indicated weaker recognition of breastfeeding. Additionally, five items were included to identify the most influential factors affecting breastfeeding. From November 25 to November 30, 2023, a survey was conducted among doctors and nurses with professional qualifications who had worked in the neonatal departments of nine hospitals in Qianxinan Prefecture for at least one year. Independent sample t-tests and Chi-square tests were used to compare the scores of doctors and nurses from different levels of hospitals and within the same level of hospitals across the three dimensions. Results:(1) Among the nine hospitals, three were tertiary grade A hospitals (referred to as "tertiary hospitals"), with 95.6% (43/45) of the doctors and 96.5% (110/114) of the nurses participating in the survey. Six were secondary grade A hospitals (referred to as "secondary hospitals"), with 95.0% (38/40) of the doctors and 97.6% (83/85) of the nurses participating. (2) All nine hospitals were baby-friendly hospitals and all had breastfeeding promotional materials. Six hospitals had NICUs that promoted breastfeeding, with an average NICU breastfeeding rate of 25.8% across the prefecture between year 2021 to 2023. (3) The proportion of doctors who had received breastfeeding training was higher than that of nurses within the same level of hospitals [tertiary hospitals: 69.8% (30/43) vs. 40.0% (44/110), χ 2=10.97, P=0.001; secondary hospitals: 47.4% (18/38) vs. 24.1% (20/83), χ 2=6.55, P=0.010], although the overall training rates were low. (4) In tertiary hospitals, doctors scored higher than nurses in the attitude dimension [(35.35±4.75) vs. (33.18±5.60) scores, t=－2.03, P=0.044] and also in the practice dimension [(26.98±3.00) vs. (25.60±3.75) scores, t=－2.17, P=0.032]. In secondary hospitals, the total knowledge dimension score of doctors was higher than that of nurses [(4.92±1.44) vs. (4.20±1.45) scores, t=－2.52, P=0.013]. In tertiary hospitals, the total scores for attitude and practice dimensions of doctors were higher than those of doctors in secondary hospitals, and the total scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice dimensions of nurses were higher than those of nurses in secondary hospitals (all P<0.05). (5) In the knowledge dimension, the lowest scoring item of doctors in the tertiary hospitals was "Breastfeeding is possible for maternal hepatitis B newborns after receiving vaccines and immunoglobulin"; the lowest scoring item of nurses in the tertiary hospital, and doctors and nurses in the secondary hospitals was "The duration of breastfeeding has a greater impact on neonatal outcomes". In the attitude dimension, the lowest scoring item for doctors and nurses in both tertiary and secondary hospitals was "You think the breastfeeding process is more troublesome than feeding preterm formula". In the practice dimension, the lowest scoring item of the doctors and nurses in the tertiary hospitals was "Your hospital had enough breastfeeding knowledge training", while for the doctors and nurses in the secondary hospitals were "You have more opportunities to participate in various breastfeeding-related training" and "Breast feeding should be started as soon as possible when the infant is stable after active treatment", respectively. (6) The most influential factors affecting breastfeeding were: lack of cooperation from parents (50.0%, 137/274), relative insufficient human resources for doctors and nurses (21.9%, 60/274), and the absence or poor implementation of breastfeeding management policies (18.3%, 50/274), etc. Conclusions:The breastfeeding rate in NICU of county-level hospitals is relatively low, and medical staff, especially nurses, have insufficient knowledge about breastfeeding. It is necessary to strengthen various breastfeeding training for medical staff to enhance their understanding of NICU breastfeeding.

Objective:To explore the current situation of nursing human caring in hospital wards and analyze its influencing factors, so as to facilitate the development of nursing human caring practice.Methods:From July to November 2022, a total of 107 hospitals were surveyed through stratified convenience sampling method, and 4 072 ward nursing managers were recruited to finish the general information questionnaire and the ward nursing human caring status questionnaire. The general information included the region, class and type of the hospital, etc. The ward nursing human caring status questionnaire included 38 items in 5 dimensions of nursing human caring system and process, humanistic quality and training of nursing staff, humanistic environment and facilities, human caring procedures and measures, and human caring quality evaluation and improvement, with a full score of 190 points. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the general data, independent samples t-test, ANOVA and correlation analysis were used to analyze the factors influencing the current status of nursing human caring in the ward, while multiple linear regression analysis was used to conduct a multivariate analysis. Results:The score of nursing human caring in hospital wards was 156.91±27.78. Whether the hospital had carried out nursing human caring pilot(demonstration) wards, whether the ward had previously been a hospital nursing human caring pilot(demonstration) nursing unit, the type of ward, and whether nursing managers had participated in human caring training were the influencing factors of the implication of nursing humanistic caring in wards( P<0.05). Conclusions:The practice of nursing human caring in hospital wards is at a good level, but needs to be further strengthened. Nursing managers should take systematically strategies to promote the development of nursing human caring practice.

Objective:To explore the effect of fully automatic image segmentation of adenoid and nasopharyngeal airway by deep learning model based on U-Net network. Methods:From March 2021 to March 2022, 240 children underwent cone beam computed tomography（CBCT） in the Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, General Hospital of Shenzhen University. 52 of them were selected for manual labeling of nasopharynx airway and adenoid, and then were trained and verified by the deep learning model. After applying the model to the remaining data, compare the differences between conventional two-dimensional indicators and deep learning three-dimensional indicators in 240 datasets. Results:For the 52 cases of modeling and training data sets, there was no significant difference between the prediction results of deep learning and the manual labeling results of doctors（P>0.05）. The model evaluation index of nasopharyngeal airway volume: Mean Intersection over Union（MIOU） s （86.32±0.54）%; Dice Similarity Coefficient（DSC）: （92.91±0.23）%; Accuracy: （95.92±0.25）%; Precision: （91.93±0.14）%; and the model evaluation index of Adenoid volume: MIOU: （86.28±0.61）%; DSC: （92.88±0.17）%; Accuracy: （95.90±0.29）%; Precision: （92.30±0.23）%. There was a positive correlation between the two-dimensional index A/N and the three-dimensional index AV/（AV+NAV） in 240 children of different age groups（P<0.05）, and the correlation coefficient of 9-13 years old was 0.74. Conclusion:The deep learning model based on U-Net network has a good effect on the automatic image segmentation of adenoid and nasopharynx airway, and has high application value. The model has a certain generalization ability.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor and clopidogrel in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CHD) and hyperhomocysteinemia (Hhcy).Methods:A total of 101 patients with CHD complicated with HHcy who had successfully undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. They were divided into ticagrelor group ( n=49) and clopidogrel group ( n=52) according to the different antiplatelet drugs used. The clinical data of the two groups were collected, and the incidence of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events (MACCE) and bleeding events in one year were compared between the two groups. Results:There was no statistical difference in baseline datas and PCI datas between the clopidogrel and ticagrelor groups ( P>0.05). Compared with clopidogrel group, ticagrelor can reduce the total MACCE (8.16% vs 32.69%, P<0.05) and the incidence of unstable angina pectoris events (0 vs 13.46%, P<0.05) in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia PCI 1 year after operation. The incidences of ischemic stroke, unstable angina pectoris, recurrent myocardial infarction, and cardiogenic death were compared separately between the two groups, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The incidence of major bleeding events, minor bleeding events, and minimal bleeding events were similar between the two groups, and the difference was not statistically significant (4.08% vs 0; 4.08% vs 1.92%; 20.41% vs 9.62%; P>0.05). Conclusions:In patients with CHD and Hhcy, ticagrelor can play a better antithrombotic effect, reduce the incidence of ischemic events, and has good security, which is more worthy of clinical recommendation.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the improvement of Chinese patent medicine instruction.METHODS:The outpatients were selected randomly from a Third Grade Class A hospital.A questionnaire survey was conducted on the attention degree of the outpatients to Chinese patent medicine instructions when taking medicine orally.The concern content label of patients in 221 Chinese patent medicine instructions were counted,analyzed and graded according to survey results.RESULTS:A total of 515 questionnaires were distributed,and 498 effective questionnaires were collected with effective recovery rate of 96.7％.The results of questionnaire survey showed that the highest concern from the patients was usage and dosage (92.4％),followed by attentions and taboos (88.0％,70.3％).The following items were drug interaction,pregnant and lactating women medication,children medication and the elderly medication (56.2％,46.4％,45.2％,42.4％).Among the description of medication methods (usage and dosage) in 221 Chinese patent medicine instructions,203 prescriptions clearly marked medication times (91.9％),160 clearly marked drug dosage (72.4％) and 36 clearly marked medication course (16.3％).In matters of taboos (attentions,taboos,pregnant and lactating women medication,children medication and the elderly medication),124 prescriptions clearly marked population taboos (56.1％),82 clearly marked symptom taboos (37.1％) and 71 clearly marked diet taboos (32.1％).According to the scoring statistics of 221 Chinese patent medicine instructions,there were 52 instructions with score of 6,followed by 47 instructions with score of 8;there were only 4 instructions with full score (12).CONCLUSIONS:At present,related contents of medication methods highly concerned by the patients are well marked in Chinese patent medicine instructions,especially its guidance is basically able to meet the requirements in respect of medication times.The related contents of medication taboos,which is next only to attention degree of medication methods by patients,is poorly marked.Its guidance remains to be improved.

Objective To determine postoperative resting energy expenditure ( REE) in children with congenital heart disease ( CHD) requiring open heart surgery , to compare measured resting energy expenditure (MREE) with current predictive equations (PEE), and to investigate the possible influencing factors on the metabolic status of the postoperative CHD children .Methods From February 2015 to June 2015 , 150 ventila-ted children admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit after surgery for congenital heart disease in Shanghai Children's Medical Center were enrolled consecutively .Indirect calorimetry ( IC) measurements were performed using metabolic cart 4 hours after surgery .General clinical data were recorded .Results Totally 104 male and 46 female patients were enrolled, with a median age of 14 months (8.3-36.0 months).The non-protein re-spiratory quotient of patient was 0.79 ±0.20, MREE was (264.76 ±61.74) kJ/(kg· d), and PEE using Schofield equations was (278.51 ±93.42) kJ/(kg· d).Although there was no significant differences (P=0.096 ) between MREE and PEE , the agreement was poor between them ( R2 =0.119 ) .Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that MREE had significant positive correlation with risk adjustment in congenital heart surgery (RACHS-1) score (P=0.012) and negative correlation with age (P=0.010).Up to 97.33%of children (146/150) had lower energy intake compared with MREE on the 1st postoperative day .Conclu-sions MREE does not increase after surgery in CHD children;however , the substrate utilization is influenced . Factors influencing the postoperative REE include RACHS-1 score and age.The energy intake at 1st day after surgery is generally lower than REE in these children .

Objective To explore the effect of a multimodal electroencephalogram ( EEG) data visualiza-tion system on the motor imagery ability of stroke survivors. Methods Twenty stroke patients were randomly di-vided into an experimental group and a control group, each of 10. Both groups were provided with brain-computer interface-based motor imagery ( MI) training. At the same time, the experimental group was monitored and guided using an online, multimodal EEG data visualization system developed in our department. The classification accuracy ( CA) and event-related desynchronization ( ERD) of the 2 groups′ motor imagery were compared before and after the treatment. Results Before the treatment, no significant differences in the average CA of MI were found be-tween the experiment group (50.92±2.08) and the control group (49.35±4.20)(P>0.05). After the treatment, however, the experimental group′s average CA had increased to (64.52±5.27), significantly higher than that of the control group (51.18±5.02). When the stroke patients imaged affected upper extremity movements, obvious ERD was observed in the α frequency around the bilateral central motor regions of both groups, especially in the experi-mental group, but without significant differences between the two groups. However, no significant changes were found in the ERD of theβwaves of the two groups( P>0.05) . Conclusion The proposed online multimodal elec-troencephalogram data visualization system can help stroke patients imagine movements actively. It is worth sprea-ding in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of liver imaging reporting and classification criteria of data system (LI-RADS) MRI on primary hepatic carcinoma (HCC).
 METHODS: The MRI images of 100 patients (72 patients with HCC, 4 with regenerative nodules, 13 with hemangioma, 4 with liver cyst, 3 with Liver abscess, 2 with inflammatory pseudotumor, 1 with hepatic arteriovenous fistula, 1 with Limitations of steatosis) with liver disease were collected in Xiangya Hospital from January, 2014 to January, 2015. All patients were at the risk of HCC. The images were reviewed according to the LI-RADS categorization by American College of Radiology (ACR) under a condition of blindness to the pathological data. The sensitivity, specificity and the area under the ROC curve in the diagnosis of HCC with the LI-RADS categorization were calculated by three associate professors from the Department of Radiology, Xiangya Hospital.
 RESULTS: The area under the ROC curve was 0.925 in the 100 patients with HCC. Of the 100 pathologically confirmed patients, 20 cases were LR1 and LR2. However, the post-operation pathological examination showed benign tumor (negative predictive value was 100%). There were 25 HCC in 31 cases of LR3, 27 HCC in 29 cases of LR4 (positive predictive value was 93.1%). All of 20 cases of LR5 were HCC (positive predictive value was 100%). If LR1 and LR2 were considered negative, and LR3, 4, 5 were positive, then the sensitivity, the specificity and the area under the ROC curve was 100%, 71.4% and 0.925, respectively. If LR1, 2 and 3 were considered negative and LR4 and LR5 were positive, the sensitivity, the specificity and the area under the ROC curve was 100%, 90.9% and 0.974, respectively.
 CONCLUSION The MRI LI-RADS categorization is highly sensitive and specific in the diagnosis of HCC, which can improve the diagnostic accuracy.

Soluble guanylate cyclase is a key signal transduction enzyme in the body, which can activate the NO-sGC-cGMP signaling pathway and inhibit the TGF-β signaling pathway. cGMP is one of the most important second messengers and also involved in a series of physiological or pathological responses including vasodilation, inhibition of platelet aggregation, inhibition of cell proliferation and so on. When TGF-β signaling pathway is inhibited, it can inhibit issue fibrosis and cell proliferation. Recent studies have shown that sGC can be activated directly to treat a variety of diseases. As a new class of potential drugs, sGC stimulators have shown many unique advantages. Herein, the mechanism and the latest research progress of sGC stimulators are reviewed, which could provide a useful information for further research of sGC stimulators.
