Esophageal cancer is a highly prevalent tumor species in Henan province, which brings heavy medical burden to families and society. Surgical treatment plays a dominant role in the treatment of non-advanced esophageal cancer. However, cancer cells in esophageal cancer lesions are highly invasive, postoperative recurrence and metastasis rates are pretty high. More effective systemic and comprehensive treatment is urgently needed to improve the prognosis. We invited 52 doctors in esophageal surgery, oncology, pathology, imaging, and radiation therapy of 32 hospitals at all levels in Henan province, to repeatedly negotiate and fully discuss in combination with evidence and clinical practice experience. Finally, “diagnosis and treatment pathway of neoadjuvant immunotherapy for esophageal cancer in Henan province” was formulated. In this treatment pathway, seven recommendations were proposed from seven perspectives including target population, patient evaluation, protocol selection, surgical timing, postoperative management, organ preservation, and general principles to offer reference for medical personnel related to esophageal cancer surgery.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a neurological disorder characterized by an unexplained increase in intracranial pressure that primarily affects obese women of childbearing age, but individuals of any age, gender, or weight may also be affected. Its signature symptoms include disc edema, headache, visual disturbance, and throbbing tinnitus. Due to potentially serious complications, such as vision loss, accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment management are critical to improving patients' quality of life. Ophthalmologists play a key role in the treatment process, as about half of patients first visit the eye department. Diagnosis of IIH depends not only on clinical presentation, but also on the exclusion of other diseases that may cause similar symptoms, and imaging and other tests to ensure an accurate diagnosis. In order to improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment efficiency, multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment mode is advocated, especially in the face of patients with complex trauma or systemic diseases, which can effectively shorten the treatment time and ensure patient safety. Future research directions include establishing China's IIH epidemiological database, exploring clinical diagnosis and treatment methods and basic scientific research, aiming at forming diagnosis and treatment standards suitable for China's national conditions, improving medical level and improving patient prognosis. At the same time, a deeper understanding of the different forms of IIH will better serve the affected populations.
Acute pancreatitis (AP), characterized by complex complications, substantial treatment expenses, and elevated mortality rates in severe instances involving multi-organ dysfunction and post-recovery challenges, has traditionally been addressed through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) based on the “Hot Disease” theory. Recent research, however, indicates potential adverse effects from over-relying on this approach with bitter and cold purgative herbals. Evolving from this, a novel methodology, conceptualized by Professor ZHANG Zailiang, integrates the theory of typhoid fever, miscellaneous diseases and epidemic febrile diseases. This paradigm shift encompasses the entire AP spectrum, emphasizing early interventions for organ damage, proactive complication management, and meticulous post-recovery care. It proposes a comprehensive, tailored strategy for monitoring disease evolution and convalescence, signaling a significant advancement in the AP treatment paradigm, particularly in the context of TCM’s role in critical care.

MicroRNA-92a (miR-92a) is an evolutionarily highly conserved pathogenic microRNA that is a member of the microRNA-17-92 gene cluster and is involved in the regulation of biological activities such as cell proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation. Recent studies have revealed that disorders of miR-92a expression are associated with disease development and exert pathogenic effects mainly through the regulation of target genes or target proteins. The current research related to miR-92a is mainly focused on malignant tumors, and its high expression has been found to be associated with cancer cell malignancy and reduced sensitivity of tumors to radiotherapy. miR-92a targeting target genes or target proteins to cause disease and its relationship with radiotherapy has been a hot research topic in recent years. Based on this, This article reviews the latest research on miR-92a target gene or target protein pathogenesis and its impact on chemotherapy in order to provide targets for clinical disease treatment.
ObjectivesTo analyze the balance of medical human resource allocation in Chengdu and to discuss the impact of human resource allocation structure on the hospital’s medical service capabilities, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the hospital to optimize the talent team structure.MethodsThe Moran’s index and Gini coefficient were used to evaluate the spatial aggregation and grade distribution difference of human resources allocation, respectively. The case mix index (CMI), the length of hospital stay, and the difficulty of surgery were used as outcome variables, and a multiple regression analysis model was established to explore the impact of human resource indicators on the hospital’s medical service capabilities.ResultsThe distribution of doctors showed an obvious spatial aggregation in Chengdu, and there was a positive spatial correlation (Moran’s Idoctor=0.290); the distribution of nurses had no obvious spatial aggregation (Moran’s Inurse=0.102). Under different medical service capacity segments, the Gini coefficient of doctors was 0.518, and the Gini coefficient of nurses was 0.576, both exceeding 0.5, indicating that the distribution of medical human resources in different levels of hospitals was considerably different. The regression results showed that the expansion of the quantity of senior title doctors and the proportion of medical care both could improve the hospital’s CMI. The increase in the quantity of doctors with senior titles also had a certain impact on improving the hospital’s surgical capabilities. The expansion of the proportion of medical care could lead to a slight increase in the length of patients' hospital stay.ConclusionsOptimizing the allocation structure of medical human resources in different regions and hospitals with different levels is an important task in the construction of a hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system. It is necessary to further integrate medical human resources throughout the whole city and strengthen personnel training and team building in primary health institutions. Hospitals at different levels should implement their own development positioning and further optimize their human resource allocation structure according to development needs. Tertiary hospitals should pay more attention to the cultivation of senior professional doctors, optimize the proportion of medical care, and improve the hospital’s medical service capabilities. The primary health institutions should pay attention to the comprehensive construction of medical personnel, and strengthen the development of the team of general practitioners, so as to achieve a comprehensive improvement of the city’s medical service capabilities.
Objective To study the effect of training methods for hospital infection management that through the whole process of diagnosis and treatment. Methods We selected part-time hospital infection personnel from Panyu Central Hospital of Guangzhou to form a teaching staff between January 1 and October 31, 2022. The teaching staff was randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group using a random number table method. The control group received training using traditional theoretical training models, while the experimental group received training using a simulated hospital infection training teaching model that runs through the entire diagnosis and treatment process. The training effects of the two groups through theoretical knowledge assessment, operational skills assessment, and teacher satisfaction evaluation were compared. Results A total of 196 teachers were included, with 98 students in each group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, education level, major category, professional title, and years of work experience (P>0.05). The total score of theoretical knowledge examination in the experimental group [(88.49±8.33) vs. (80.35±13.57) points, t=5.062, P<0.001] was higher than the control group. Among them, the scores of hand hygiene standards for medical personnel, principles of aseptic operation, occupational exposure disposal, classification and disposal of medical waste were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). The total score of the operational skills assessment in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [(86.37±5.25) vs. (76.75±7.07) points, t=10.811, P<0.001], among which the scores during operation, after operation, and overall impression were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). The overall satisfaction in the experimental group was higher than that of the control group (94.90% vs. 72.45%, χ2=18.076, P<0.001), among which the satisfaction with training methods, textbook value, course attractiveness, and clinical applicability were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Through the whole process of diagnosis and treatment training method for hospital infection management can significantly improve the training effectiveness of teachers. It is worth promoting in the teaching of hospital infection management for various levels and types of personnel.
