Medical mutual aid is an important component of multi-level medical security system. West China Second University Hospital of Sichuan University led the establishment of the pediatric specialty alliance " West China Women and Children Alliance". Based on customized and inclusive mutual insurance product " Family Doctor Mutual Aid Plan", the alliance implemented key links such as mutual aid product forms, patient risk protection, institutional financing and hematopoiesis, and distribution of benefits to all parties, explored innovative mutual aid funding, payment, and incentive mechanisms, forming a closed-loop pediatric tiered diagnosis and treatment service system with the Mutual Aid Plan as the core. This system operated continuously under the " Four-in-One" framework, stimulating the integration of medical insurance and service supply systems while enhancing the synergistic effect between mutual insurance and social security. It has formed a distinctive health-centered multi-level medical security system within the alliance, and could provide reference for the construction and exploration of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the effects of pulmonary fever and cough oral liquid combined with chlorpheniramine on symptoms,pro/anti-inflammatory balance and prognosis in children with chronic cough.Methods:A total of 150 children with chronic cough in Luohe Central Hospital from June 2017 to December 2019 were selected,and randomly divided into 3 groups,with 50 cases in each group.All 3 groups were treated with conventional treatment,pulmonary fever and cough oral solution+chlorpheniramine in group A,pulmonary fever and cough oral solution in group B,and chlorpheniramine in group C,all treated for 10 days.Clinical efficacy,adverse effects,prognosis and pre-and post-treatment symptom scores,respiratory physiological indexes[maximum mid-expiratory flow rate(MMEF75/25),1st second forceful expiratory volume as a percentage of expected value(FEV1%),maximum peak expiratory flow rate(PEF)],pro/anti-inflammatory factors(IL-5,IL-13,IFN-γ,IL-10)were observed in three groups.Results:①Total treat-ment efficiency and PEF,MMEF75/25,FEV1%in group A were higher than those in groups B and C,while symptom scores were lower than those in groups B and C(P<0.05),there was no statistically significant difference between the total treatment efficiency,symp-tom scores and respiratory physiological indexes in groups B and C(P>0.05);②After treatment,levels of IL-5 and IL-13 in group A were lower than those in groups B and C,while levels of IFN-γ and IL-10 were higher than those in groups B and C.Moreover,levels of IL-5 and IL-13 in group B were lower than those in group C,while levels of IFN-γ and IL-10 were higher than those in group C(P<0.05);③There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions and recurrence rate between the three groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:Pulmonary fever and cough oral liquid combined with chlorpheniramine is effective in treating chronic cough,which is beneficial in relieving cough symptoms and improving respiratory function,and the mechanism may be related to cor-recting the pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory imbalance.

Objective:Based on multi-parametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and related clinical indicators, a nomogram model for patients with PI-RADS ≥3 and PSA 4-20ng/ml was developed and validated, and the predictive value of the model in diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer was evaluated.Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 865 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate biopsy for the first time at the Department of Urology, Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from January 2020 to August 2023, with PI-RADS scores ≥3 and PSA levels between 4-20 ng/ml were retrospectively analyzed. These 865 patients were included in Cohort A, and from them, 437 patients with PHI were selected in Cohort B. In Cohort A, the median age was 68(64, 73); the median f/tPSA was 14.36 (10.63, 19.74); the median PSAD was 0.17(0.11, 0.25); 375 cases (43.35%) with PV≤50 ml and 490 cases (56.65%) with PV>50 ml; PSA fluctuation <-50% 84 cases (9.71%), -50%--20% in 206 cases (23.82%), and >-20% in 575 cases (66.47%); PI-RADS v2.1 3 scores 546 cases (63.12%), 4 in 230 cases (23.59%), and 5 in 89 cases (10.29%); localization of suspicious lesions on mpMRI in the peripheral zone in 619 cases (71.56%), transitional zone in 181 cases (20.92%), others in 42 cases (4.86%), and both peripheral and transitional zones in 23 cases (2.66%).

The diagnostic performance of the prediction model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis(DCA).External validation of the model was conducted in the validation set. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), accuracy, and missed diagnosis rate analyses were performed on nomogram models A and B, as well as PSAD and PHI, under different thresholds. Results:Cohort A training set has 608 cases, and the validation set has 257 cases.The results of multivariate backward regression analysis in the training set show that age( OR=1.06, P=0.001), f/tPSA( OR=0.96, P=0.008), prostate volume (PV)>50ml( OR=0.36, P<0.01), prostate-specific antigen density(PSAD)( OR=145.19, P<0.01), PSA fluctuation(-50%--20%: OR=1.97, P=0.234; >-20%: OR=6.81, P<0.01), PI-RADS v2.1 score(4: OR=10.65, P<0.01; 5: OR=21.20, P<0.01), and localization of suspicious lesions on mpMRI(TZ: OR=0.57, P=0.074; Others: OR=0.26, P=0.022) were all risk factors for CsPCa. Nomogram A was developed based on these risk factors and had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.905 (95% CI 0.881-0.928) for the training set and 0.893 (95% CI 0.854-0.931) for the validation set. Cohort B training set developed based on age( OR=1.05, P=0.053), PV>50ml( OR=0.18, P<0.01), PSAD( OR=54.14, P=0.021), PSA fluctuation(-50%--20%: OR=4.78, P=0.100; >-20%: OR=20.37, P=0.001), PHI( OR=1.02, P=0.002), D-Dimer( OR=1.00, P=0.031), and PI-RADS scores(4: OR=11.35, P<0.01; 5: OR=57.61, P<0.01) as risk factors for CsPCa. Nomogram B had an AUC of 0.933(95% CI 0.906-0.959) for the training set and 0.908 (95% CI 0.859-0.958) for the validation set.The two nomogram models mentioned above both have excellent discrimination, and the calibration curves also indicated that the calibration of the two models were good.Moreover, both nomogram A and nomogram B demonstrate good clinical net benefits in the DCA curves of the training and validation sets, especially when applying nomogram B to predict CsPCa, with an accuracy rate of up to 85.82%. Conclusions:The two nomogram models developed in study, based on mpMRI and related clinical indicators, both have excellent predictive value for the diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer prior to prostate biopsy in patients with PI-RADS≥3 and PSA 4-20ng/ml.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Jianpi Yangzheng Xiaozheng decoction （JYXD） on the proliferation and stemness of the human gastric cancer （GC） cell line HGC-27 by inhibiting aerobic glycolysis， and explore the underlying mechanism. MethodMethyl thiazolyl tetrazolium （MTT） assay was employed to determine the survival rate and chemotherapy sensitivity of HGC-27 cells treated with JYXD （0.25， 0.5， 1， 2， 4， 8， 16， 32 g·L^-1）. Colony formation assay was employed to detect the effect of JYXD （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） on the colony formation of the cells. The aerobic glycolysis level of HGC-27 cells after treatment with JYXD was measured by glucose assay kit and lactic acid assay kit. The proportion of stem cell subsets in HGC-27 cells was detected by flow cytometry. Western blot was employed to determine the expression of glycolysis-associated proteins such as lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， glucose transporter 1 （GLUT1）， and pyruvate kinase isozyme M2 （PKM2）， and the expression of stemness-associated proteins such as octamer-binding transcription factor 4 （OCT4）， SRY-box transcription factor 2 （SOX2）， and Nanog. ResultJYXD （0.5， 1， 2， 4， 8， 16， 32 g·L^-1） inhibited the activity of HGC-27 cells （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with the inhibitory concentration 50（IC₅₀） of 4.83 g·L^-1， and it improved the sensitivity of HGC-27 cells to cisplatin chemotherapy. Compared with the control group， JYXD （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） reduced the colony formation number of HGC-27 cells （P<0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. Flow cytometry showed that compared with that in the control group， the proportion of CD44⁺CD24⁺ALDH⁺ population in the cells treated with JYXD （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） decreased （P<0.05）. In addition， JYXD （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） inhibited the glucose uptake and lactic acid production of HGC-27 cells. Western blot showed that compared with the control group， JYXD （2， 4， 8 g·L^-1） down-regulated the expression levels of SOX2， Nanog， OCT4， PKM2， LDH， GLUT1， and HK2 （P<0.05， P<0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. ConclusionJYXD may inhibit the proliferation and reduce the stemness of HGC-27 cells by regulating the aerobic glycolysis.

Objective:To investigate the association between serum thyroid level and prognosis of critically ill children with euthyroid sick syndrome(ESS).Methods:The clinical data and serum thyroid hormone levels of 176 children with ESS who were admitted to the Department of Pediatric Intensive Care Medicine at West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2015 to April 2021 were retrospectively collected.According to the prognosis, the children were divided into improved group and invalid group, as well as basic disease group and non basic disease group, and the differences of thyroid hormone between two groups were compared.The pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ(PRISMⅢ) scores within 24 hours of admission were assessed, and the correlation between thyroid hormone level and PRISMⅢ score was analyzed.Results:Among 176 critically ill children with ESS, the most common diseases were sepsis(31.8%), severe pneumonia (23.8%) and heart failure(10.7%), respectively.The levels of free T3(FT3), T3, free T4(FT4) and T4 in invalid group were significantly lower than those in improved group ( P<0.05), but there was no statistical difference in thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) level between two groups( P>0.05). The levels of FT3, T3, FT4 and T4 were negatively correlated with PRISMⅢ score( r=-0.419, -0.459, -0.341, -0.383, respectively, P<0.05), and there was no correlation between TSH level and PRISMⅢ score ( P>0.05). The common underlying diseases of severe children with ESS were malnutrition(31/98), heart disease(30/98), hematologic neoplasms(15/98), and bronchopulmonary dysplasia(10/98). The median age of children in basic disease group was younger than that in non-basic disease group(0.7 years old vs. 2.0 years old, P<0.05); The proportion of children with underlying diseases in invalid group was 24.5%, which was significantly higher than that of children without underlying diseases (6.4%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); There were no significant differences in the levels of FT3, T3, FT4, T4 and TSH between two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In critically ill children, a variety of diseases can lead to ESS, and sepsis is the most common disease.Young children with underlying diseases should be more alert to ESS.The more severe the disease, the greater the decline of FT3, T3, FT4 and T4 levels.When low T3, T4 and TSH occur simultaneously, the prognosis of the children may be worse.Thyroid hormone level could be used as an indicator to evaluate the prognosis of critically ill children, which is needed further studies to explore.

" Two-way referral, and synergy between the tertiary hospitals and primary institutions" is the core measure for promoting hierarchical diagnosis and treatment in the region. The authors introduced the exploration and practice of constructing a two-way referral path in the medical alliance based on telemedicine in West China Second University Hospital of Sichuan University. As of May 2021, the hospital had established a two-way referral path with 52 member hospitals of the medical alliance. By clarifying the functionality and positioning of these institutions, optimizing work processes and IT support, building the mechanism of referral and liaison, and that of appraisal as support, these efforts had achieved progresses in such fields as innovative medical service modes, lean management of referral processes, and promotion of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system building.

Unreasonable usage of antibiotics has become a prominent problem in clinic, which directly leads to the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria infection, thus significantly increasing the difficulty of clinical anti-infection treatment.Relevant researches show that the infection range of multidrug resistant bacteria continues increasing, and its resistance gradually deepens, especially in children.Because of the distribution of multidrug resistant bacteria in dynamic changes, and the types and drug resistance of multidrug resistant bacteria that infect children are different from those in adults, leading to clinical treatment more difficult in pediatric.Therefore, the status analysis of multidrug resistant bacteria infections in Chinese children can promote the standardized use of antibiotics, therefore delaying or reducing the invasion of children by multidrug resistant bacteria.

As one of the main forms of the medical alliance, the specialty alliance functions as a service carrier for hierarchical medical service and resources integration in the region. The authors introduced the exploration and practice of the West China Women′s and Children′s Alliance, the first pediatric specialty alliance in Sichuan, established by the West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University. Based on family doctor contracted services, the West China Women′s and Children′s Alliance took such measures as differentiated functional positioning, assessment of certified physicians, continuous online quality control, construction of referral platforms, and innovative payment mechanisms. Such efforts effectively integrated the three stages of pre-hospital " preventive care" , in-hospital " disease diagnosis and treatment" , and post-hospital " follow-up management" , exploring the homogenization of medical services within the alliance, and forming a pediatric closed-loop health management system, hence improving the primary medical services.

BACKGROUND: The water molecules and biological macromolecules in human tissue may combine to form hydrate composite. Different types of macromolecules show different approaches to combine with water molecules. OBJECTIVE: To discuss the basic form of water molecules combined with biological macromolecules. METHODS: The theoretical hypothesis of texture composite hydration system was proposed. The relevant literatures were retrieved through the computer to discuss these issues. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: According to the role of water in the hydrate composite, the composite ways can be divided into the following 4 groups. ①Surfaca composite: Hydrated membrane layers can form on the surface of globular protein or DNA molecules. The hydrated membrane layer shows that the speed of water molecular and hydrate density were reduced gradually from surface to inside. The hydrated layer makes the shape and physical state of the macromolecules stabilized, and it plays important role in forming of TCHS.②Swelling composite: As a result of the strong hydration of glycosaminoglycans, the hydrated proteoglycan often swells and shows high viscosity and hydrogel character. The hydrated proteoglycan play some mechanicalroles in connective tissue. For example, it can make the cartilage have a strong deformation-resistibility.③Hydrophobic composite: Hydr0phobic effect drives structural rearrangement, including the formation of bilayers (Bio-membrane). This hydrophilic-hydrophobic-hydrophilic "sandwich" structure is conducive to the self-stability in mechanics, combination with membrane protein and transmembrane transport. ④Slit composite: A lot of slit spaces with nano scale were existing inside and outside of the cells. Aqueous solution in the slit spaces shows some abnormal characters such as higher viscosity and lower ice point, because of the rearrangement of water molecules. Slit composite and surface composite have some universality, and it can be regarded the former as a special case of the latter. The classification way mentioned above has not any absolute connotations. However, the rational utilization of these hydration composite ways will be conducive to research the theory on textural composite hydrate system.
