2013-2017年我国四种恶性肿瘤住院费用水平及结构变动度分析

背景　恶性肿瘤给家庭、社会带来了沉重的医疗、经济负担，极易导致部分家庭“因病致贫”或放弃治疗，目前相关研究多集中于单一病种、分散地域的研究，仍缺乏对于全国范围与多病种恶性肿瘤住院费用变化及结构构成的考量。目的　分析2013-2017年我国4种恶性肿瘤住院费用水平以及影响住院费用的主要项目和结构变动情况，为控制医疗费用上涨、深化新医改提供参考依据。方法　本研究数据来源于《2014中国卫生和计划生育统计年鉴》《2015中国卫生和计划生育统计年鉴》《2016中国卫生和计划生育统计年鉴》《2017中国卫生和计划生育统计年鉴》以及《2018中国卫生健康统计年鉴》，样本跨度为2013-2017年。统计“30种疾病人均住院费用”中的胃恶性肿瘤、肺恶性肿瘤、食管恶性肿瘤以及膀胱恶性肿瘤的数据，4种恶性肿瘤的人均住院费用包括药费、检查费、治疗费、手术费和手术材料费。2019年4-8月，采用结构变动度法分析我国2013-2017年4种恶性肿瘤的住院费用的结构变动情况〔结构变动值（VSV）、结构变动度（DSV）、结构变动贡献率〕。结果　2013-2017年，4种恶性肿瘤的人均住院费用逐年上升，其中胃恶性肿瘤的人均住院费用始终最高，且肺恶性肿瘤的人均住院费用上升幅度最大。2013-2017年，在4种恶性肿瘤住院各项费用的占比中，药费占比最高且总体逐年下降。从4种恶性肿瘤住院各项费用的实际变化来看，药费在2013-2014年有所上升，2014-2017年逐年下降；检查费在2013-2014年下降，2014-2017年缓慢上升；手术费与手术材料费在2013-2017年逐年上升。2013-2017年，在4种恶性肿瘤住院各项费用中均是药费的VSV最大；4种恶性肿瘤药费、检查费的VSV均呈负向变化，手术费和手术材料费的VSV均呈正向变化，治疗费的VSV增减均不明显。2013-2017年，4种恶性肿瘤住院费用的DSV从大到小依次为肺恶性肿瘤、胃恶性肿瘤、食管恶性肿瘤、膀胱恶性肿瘤。2013-2017年，4种恶性肿瘤住院各项费用中均是药费的结构变动贡献率最大，治疗费的结构变动贡献率最小；除药费外，胃恶性肿瘤、肺恶性肿瘤住院各项费用中均是手术材料费和手术费的结构变动贡献率次之，食管恶性肿瘤住院各项费用中手术费、检查费的结构变动贡献率次之，膀胱恶性肿瘤住院各项费用中检查费、手术材料费的结构变动贡献率次之。结论　2013-2017年我国4种恶性肿瘤手术费的结构变动贡献率虽然较为理想，但药费、治疗费仍是住院费用结构的重点调整对象；同时为有效降低恶性肿瘤的人均住院费用，应当加强控制手术材料费与检查费；而胃恶性肿瘤与肺恶性肿瘤患者的疾病经济负担严重，若要缓解应加强疾病的早期预防与住院费用管控。     

Long-Term Clinical Outcomes after Endovascular Therapy for Anti-Centromere Antibody-Positive Patients with Critical Limb-Threatening Ischemia

PurposeTo examine the long-term clinical outcomes of patients with anti-centromere antibody (ACA)-positive critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) who were treated with endovascular therapy (EVT).Materials and MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis using a database of 423 consecutive CLTI patients (543 limbs, Rutherford class 4–6) who underwent EVT between January 2011 and March 2013. The patients were divided into 2 groups: an ACA-positive group (10 limbs, 8 patients) and a control group (46 limbs, 43 patients). The control group was defined as female, non-dialysis, and those who were able to obtain a below-knee angiogram.ResultsNone of the 8 ACA-positive CLTI patients had previously been diagnosed as ACA positive. No significant difference was observed in the below-the-knee lesion distribution and severity between the ACA-positive group and the control group. The median observational period was 51 months. The survival rate was 54% in the ACA-positive group and 76% in the control group at 5 years after EVT (P = .732). The freedom from major amputation rate was 60% in the ACA-positive group and 91% in the control group at 5 years after EVT (P = .029). The technical EVT success rate in the ACA-positive group was 70% (7/10). Of the successful EVT cases, 71% (5/7) of patients achieved complete wound healing or rest pain relief; however, 60% (3/5) had a recurrence of wounds.ConclusionsIn a series of ACA-positive patients with CLTI, successful EVT had acceptable outcomes with respect to wound healing with short-term results. However, the major amputation rate for ACA-positive patients was high in long-term follow-up.     

Predictors of Occlusion of Hepatic Blood Vessels after Irreversible Electroporation of Liver Tumors

PurposeTo examine predictors of midterm occlusion in portal and hepatic veins within or adjacent to the ablation zone after irreversible electroporation (IRE) of liver tumors.Materials and MethodsThis retrospective cohort analysis included 39 patients who underwent CT-guided IRE of liver tumors. Vessels within or adjacent to the ablation zone were identified on CT images acquired immediately after the procedure, and the positional relationships with the ablation zone (within/adjacent), locations (proximal/distal), and diameters (< 4 mm or ≥ 4 mm) were evaluated. Using contrast-enhanced follow-up scans, each vessel was classified as patent, stenosed, or occluded. Associations between vessel occlusion and each variable were investigated.ResultsOverall, 33 portal veins and 64 hepatic veins were analyzed. Follow-up scans showed occlusion in 12/33 (36.7%) portal veins and 17/64 (26.6%) hepatic veins. Vessels within the ablation zone were occluded significantly more frequently than vessels adjacent to the ablation zone (portal: 55.6% [10/18] vs 13.3% [2/15], P = .04; hepatic: 45.4% [15/33] vs 6.4% [2/31], P = .011). Vessels with a diameter < 4 mm were also occluded significantly more frequently than vessels with a diameter ≥ 4 mm (portal: 72.7% [8/11] vs 18.1% [4/22], P = .011; hepatic: 54.8% [17/31] vs 0% [0/33], P < .001). The respective positive and negative predictive values for occlusion of vessels categorized as both within and < 4 mm were 88% (7/8) and 82% (20/25) for portal veins and 79% (15/19) and 96% (43/45) for hepatic veins.ConclusionsMidterm vessel occlusion after liver IRE could be predicted with relatively high accuracy by assessing ablation location and vessel diameter.     

门诊和病房电脑鼠标细菌污染情况调查

目的调查门诊和普通病房电脑鼠标不同时段的细菌污染情况。方法随机抽取某院门诊及普通病房的各16个电脑鼠标，分别于8∶00、10∶30、13∶00、15∶30进行采样，样本接种培养后对菌落计数并筛查多重耐药菌。结果32个鼠标共计采样128次，最高菌落数达121 CFU/cm2，平均菌落数为23.9 CFU/cm2。随着时间的推移，同一鼠标的细菌计数逐渐增多。不同时段门诊和病房的电脑鼠标菌落数比较，在10∶30、13∶00、15∶30三个时间点，病房鼠标的菌落数均高于门诊（均P≤0.05）。64个病房电脑鼠标标本中检出耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）和耐碳青霉烯类鲍曼不动杆菌（CRAB）各1株。结论加强鼠标日常清洁消毒及监测工作非常重要，应增加清洁消毒频率或更换长效消毒剂，加强病房环境的清洁消毒。     

Tau Accumulation via Reduced Autophagy Mediates GGGGCC Repeat Expansion-Induced Neurodegeneration in Drosophila Model of ALS

Expansions of trinucleotide or hexanucleotide repeats lead to several neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington disease [caused by expanded CAG repeats (CAGr) in the HTT gene], and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [ALS, possibly caused by expanded GGGGCC repeats (G4C2r) in the C9ORF72 gene], of which the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we demonstrated that lowering the Drosophila homologue of tau protein (dtau) significantly rescued in vivo neurodegeneration, motor performance impairments, and the shortened life-span in Drosophila expressing expanded CAGr or expanded G4C2r. Expression of human tau (htau4R) restored the disease-related phenotypes that had been mitigated by the loss of dtau, suggesting an evolutionarily-conserved role of tau in neurodegeneration. We further revealed that G4C2r expression increased tau accumulation by inhibiting autophagosome–lysosome fusion, possibly due to lowering the level of BAG3, a regulator of autophagy and tau. Taken together, our results reveal a novel mechanism by which expanded G4C2r causes neurodegeneration via an evolutionarily-conserved mechanism. Our findings provide novel autophagy-related mechanistic insights into C9ORF72-ALS and possible entry points to disease treatment.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s12264-020-00518-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

冠状病毒感染对心血管系统的损伤及可能机制

冠状病毒(coronavirus,CoVs)感染主要累及肺部,但对心血管系统损伤作用也不容忽视。CoVs感染引起的心脏损伤并非罕见,其发生与病情的严重程度密切相关。本文首先从CoVs引起心血管损伤的证据入手,进一步探讨了CoVs对心肌的直接损伤,以及肾素血管紧张素(RAS)系统激活和细胞因子风暴与炎症反应对心血管损伤的可能作用机制。相关心血管损伤的可能机制包括,(1)病毒直接作用:CoVs在心肌细胞复制,损伤心肌;(2)RAS系统激活:感染CoVs后,心脏血管紧张素转化酶2(angiotensin-converting enzyme 2,ACE2)的表达下调,激活RAS系统,使得血管紧张素Ⅱ(AngiotensinⅡ,AngⅡ)收缩血管功能增强,Ang1-7保护心脏效应减弱;(3)诱发细胞因子风暴:循环细胞因子和全身炎症反应引起心脏损伤;(4)其他:包括低氧血症和儿茶酚胺心脏毒性。本文就相关内容作一综述,为后续的详尽机制和治疗策略研究提供思路。     

中医药对淋巴管新生与回流功能的作用研究进展＊

淋巴管作为循环系统的重要组成部分之一，具有调节机体体液稳态，协助免疫监视和肠道脂质吸收等重要作用。淋巴管新生是机体生理和病理过程中维持脉管系统结构和功能正常的重要手段，淋巴管新生调控对于防治肿瘤、心血管等诸多疾病有着潜在的临床转化意义；淋巴回流功能则与关节炎症等疾病发病机制关系密切。在循环系统中，相较于中医药调控血管相关疾病的发病机制已取得很大进展，近年来对于淋巴管的研究则明显相对滞后。本文从中医药作用于淋巴管新生及回流功能角度对这一领域的研究进展作一综述，以期为临床上中医药治疗相关疾病提供新的思路与方法。
