基于标准化患者法评价四川农村基层医生两种慢性病诊断准确性及其影响因素

目的 运用标准化患者法评估四川农村地区基层医生不稳定型心绞痛和2型糖尿病两种慢性病诊断准确性现状,探讨基层医生两种慢性病诊断准确性的主要影响因素,为提升基层医生两种慢性病诊断准确性提供科学依据。方法 采用多阶段随机整群抽样方法,抽取四川省自贡市5个区/县50个乡镇100个村为研究现场,以调查当日在岗的全科及内科医生作为研究对象。共进行两轮数据采集,第1轮采集样本乡镇卫生院和村卫生室医生的基本信息;第1轮调查完成1个月后,运用标准化患者法开展第2轮调查,收集农村基层医生对不稳定型心绞痛和2型糖尿病诊断结果信息。运用Logistic回归分析农村基层医生不稳定型心绞痛和2型糖尿病诊断准确性的影响因素。结果 共纳入172名农村基层医生,完成186次标准化患者访问,正确诊断率为48.39%。其中不稳定型心绞痛的正确诊断率为18.68%(17/91),2型糖尿病的正确诊断率为76.84%(73/95)。Logistic回归分析显示,具有执业医师资质的农村基层医生更有可能做出正确诊断(OR=4.857,95%CI=1.076~21.933,P=0.040)。农村基层医生在诊断过程中涉及的必要问诊和检查条目越多,做出正确诊断的概率越高(OR=1.627,95%CI=1.065~2.485,P=0.024)。与不稳定型心绞痛相比,农村基层医生对2型糖尿病做出正确诊断的可能性更高(OR=6.306,95%CI=3.611~11.013,P<0.001)。结论 四川农村基层医生不稳定型心绞痛和2型糖尿病诊断准确性整体较差,建议以基层医生慢性病诊断过程质量改善为突破口,提升基层医生执业水平,进而提高慢性病诊断准确性。     

2011—2020年呼和浩特市流行性腮腺炎流行特征分析

目的 分析呼和浩特市2011—2020年流行性腮腺炎(流腮)流行病学特征,为制定有针对性防控措施提供参考依据。方法 对呼和浩特市2011—2020年流行性腮腺炎的发病数据进行监测分析,描述其分布及趋势。 呼和浩特市2011—2020年共报告流腮病例6 176例,年均发病率20.60/10万,其中2012年发病率最高为40.17/10万,2020年发病率最低为7.08/10万,2012年和2020年发病率差异有统计学意义(χ2=717.641,P<0.001),10年间流腮发病呈波动下降趋势。流腮发病具有明显季节性,11月至次年1月和4—7月出现2个发病高峰。年龄分布以儿童和青少年为主,占总病例数60.83%。流腮病例最多人群是学生,占总病例数的61.08%。 流腮暴发疫情主要发生在中小学校,应加强儿童入托、入学预防接种证查验和流腮疫苗查漏补种工作,必要时开展6～15岁学生为目标人群的应急接种。     

Patterns in Mothers’ Recollection of Health Care Providers’ Young Child Feeding Recommendations

ObjectiveCharacterize feeding guidance mothers recall receiving from their child's health care provider (HCP).DesignCross-sectional study of mothers participating in the 2017–2019 National Survey of Family Growth.ParticipantsUS mothers reporting (n = 1,302) information about their youngest child (aged 6 months to 5 years).Variables MeasuredWeighted percentage of mothers who recalled their child's HCP discussing 6 different feeding topics by demographic characteristics.AnalysisLogistic regression assessing the relationship between recall of feeding guidance and demographics.ResultsIn this sample, 36.9% of mothers (95% confidence interval, 32.3–41.4) recalled HCPs recommending solid food before 6 months old (34.6% at 4–5 months, and 2.3% before 4 months). Mothers who were older or had a higher education level were more likely than their counterparts to recall their HCP discussing several of the feeding topics examined.Conclusion and ImplicationsMothers reported high recollection of early childhood nutrition guidance from their HCP; however, certain topics (eg, appropriate timing of solid food introduction) could be prioritized, and some subpopulations may need additional focus to improve receipt of messages. A better understanding of variability in recall of feeding guidance could provide information for interventions to address barriers to receiving and retaining guidance.

Assessment of the Benefits of Targeted Interventions for Pandemic Control in China Based on Machine Learning Method and Web Service for COVID-19 Policy Simulation

Taking the Chinese city of Xiamen as an example, simulation and quantitative analysis were performed on the transmissions of the Coronavirus Disease 2019(COVID-19) and the influence of intervention combinations to assist policymakers in the preparation of targeted response measures. A machine learning model was built to estimate the effectiveness of interventions and simulate transmission in different scenarios. The comparison was conducted between simulated and real cases in Xiamen. A web inter...     

Femoropopliteal Arterial Dissections Following FLEX VP and Balloon Angioplasty Versus Balloon Angioplasty Alone: Intravascular Ultrasound Assessment and Correlation With Angiographic Findings

BackgroundThe Flex VP is a longitudinal micro-incision catheter approved for vessel prepping of femoropopliteal arteries and arteriovenous fistulas. In this study, we evaluated the presence of deep dissections (adventitia) using IVUS in patients undergoing Flex VP followed by angioplasty (PTA) versus PTA alone.Methods17 patients (20 limbs) with femoropopliteal artery (FP) disease were prospectively and consecutively included (10 limbs received PTA followed by 10 limbs that received FLEX VP microincision catheter treatment followed by adjunctive PTA). Dissections post PTA, FLEX VP and FLEX VP+ PTA were evaluated using intravascular ultrasound (iDissection classification) and angiographically (NHLBI classification) by core laboratory. The evaluated segment of the vessel was prespecified at 10 cm at the most severe lesion location. Statistical differences were analyzed between the 2 groups at each appropriate procedural point for dissections, minimal luminal diameter (MLD), minimal luminal area (MLA), and residual stenosis. Statistical significance was determined by a p-value <0.05.ResultsBaseline demographics and angiographic variables were similar between the PTA vs FLEX VP + PTA groups with the exception of more males (87.5 % vs 33.3 %, p = 0.0274) and longer treated length (median 300 mm vs 150 mm, p = 0.0240) in the FLEX VP + PTA group. Lesion length, chronic total occlusions, angiographic and IVUS evaluated segment length for dissections, calcium severity and final balloon pressures and inflation duration were all similar between the 2 groups. Angiographic dissections were similar between the 2 groups but the increase in severe dissections from index to post POBA on IVUS (involving the adventitia) were significantly more for PTA when compared to FLEX VP + PTA (0 to 12 and 0 to 1 respectively, p = 0.0353). Bailout stenting was statistically similar for PTA as compared to FLEX VP + PTA per core lab evaluation (50 % vs 20 %, p = 0.3498). Minimal luminal area (MLA) gain by IVUS was similar between the 2 groups following FLEX VP + PTA vs PTA (7.4 mm² vs 6.5 mm², p = 0.7250). No serious major adverse events occurred in either group.ConclusionVessel prepping with the FLEX VP + PTA vs PTA yielded lower rates of adventitial dissections as seen on IVUS. The long-term outcomes of these findings remain unclear.
