{"title":"[Expert consensus on key indicators for quality control in trauma medicine center].","authors":"Wei Huang, Tingmin Xu, Tianbing Wang, Baoguo Jiang","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Trauma is recognized globally as a great public health challenge. It stands as the predominant cause of mortality among those under the age of 45 and is also ranked among the top five causes of death for both urban and rural populations within China. This stark reality underscores the critical urgency in establishing an efficient system for trauma care, which is pivotal for substantially enhancing the survival rates of patients. An optimally developed system for trauma care not only guarantees that patients promptly receive professional medical assistance but also facilitates significant improvements in the outcomes of trauma care through the strategic establishment of trauma centers. At present, a considerable variation exists in the quality of trauma care provided across various regions within China. The adoption of comprehensive quality management strategies for the medical processes involved in trauma care, alongside the standardized management of on-site rescue operations, pre-hospital emergency care, and in-hospital treatment protocols, stands as a fundamental approach to boost the capabilities of trauma care and, consequently, the survival rates of trauma patients. Serving as the cornerstone of comprehensive medical quality management, key quality control indicators possess the capacity to steer the development direction of trauma centers. In a concerted effort to further augment the medical quality management of trauma care, standardize clinical diagnosis and treatment methodologies, and advocate for the standardization and ho-mogenization of medical services, the Medical Quality Control Professional Committee of the National Center for Trauma Medicine has undertaken a detailed refinement and update of the 16 key quality control indicators for trauma centers. These were initially put forward in the \"Notice on Further Enhancing Trauma Care Capabilities\" disseminated by the National Health Commission in 2018.Consequent to this endeavor, a revised set of 19 quality control indicators has been devised. This comprehensive set, inclusive of the indicators' names, definitions, calculation methodologies, significance, and the subjects for quality control, is designed for utilization within the quality management and control operations of trauma centers across various levels. This initiative aims to furnish a concrete and executable roadmap for the quality control endeavors of trauma centers. Through the enactment of these quality control indicators, medical institutions are empowered to conduct more stringent monitoring and evaluative measures across all facets of trauma care. This not only facilitates the prompt identification and rectification of existing challenges but also substantially boosts the efficiency of internal collaboration. It enhances the synergy between different departments, thereby markedly improving the efficiency and quality of trauma care.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"Beijing da xue xue bao.

Using SPSS 27.0 to perform the descriptive analysis and multiple linear regression analysis of factors, which affect cognitive function among the older adults.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Totally 349 older adults were recruited, with the highest percentage of respondents aged 60-69 years (41.3%), of whom 58.7% were female, 88.0% of the respondents had a junior high school or above education level. Most of the older adults (68.8%) worked 35-48 h/week before they retired, and 14.0% of the older adults had a family history of dementia. After controlling age and gender, the linear regression analysis showed that marital status married (<i>β</i>=0.501, 95%<i>CI</i>: 0.144-0.859) and 3-4 times physical activity per week (<i>β</i>=0.617, 95%<i>CI</i>: 0.087-1.148) were protective factors of cognitive function in the older adults, and depressive symptoms were a risk factor (<i>β</i>= -0.723, 95%<i>CI</i>: -1.198 to -0.247) of cognitive function for the older adults.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In this study, the factors influencing cognitive function among the older adults was analyzed based on a life-cycle perspective. Lack of physical activity and depressive symptoms were risk factors for cognitive function among the older adults. It was suggested that strengthening physical activity, improving mental health of the older adults, as well as conducting preventive intervention in early stages of the life-cycle will be benefit for preventing and slowing cognitive decline in the older adults.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"Beijing da xue xue bao.

According to drug prescription records, the patients were divided into metformin plus sitagliptin group (combination group) and metformin monotherapy group(monotherapy group). A series of retrospective cohorts were constructed according to the index date.Finally, full retrospective cohorts were constructed according to propensity score model, including baseline covariates that might be related to outcomes, to match the subjects in the combination group and monotherapy group for the purpose of increasing the comparability of baseline characteristics. The participants were followed up from the index date until the first occurrence of the following events: Diagnosis of outcomes, death, or the end of the study period (December 31, 2022). Cox proportional risk model was used to estimate the hazard ratio(<i>HR</i>)and 95% confidence interval (<i>CI</i>) of sitagliptin added to metformin on 3-point major adverse cardiovascular events (3P-MACE) combination outcome and secondary cardiovascular outcomes.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Before propensity score matching, the proportion of the patients in combination group using insulin, α glucosidase inhibitors, sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2I) and glienides at baseline was higher than that in monotherapy group, and the baseline fasting blood glucose (FBG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in combination group were higher than those in monotherapy group. After propensity score matching, 5 416 subjects were included in the combination group and the monotherapy group, and baseline characteristics were effectively balanced between the groups. The incidence densities of 3P-MACE were 6.41/100 person years and 6.35/100 person years, respectively. Sitagliptin added to metformin did not increase or decrease the risk of 3P-MACE compared with the metformin monotherapy (<i>HR</i>=1.00, 95% <i>CI</i>: 0.91-1.10). In secondary outcomes analysis, the incidence of cardiovascular death was lower in the combination group than in the monotherapy group (<i>HR</i>=0.59, 95% <i>CI</i>: 0.41-0.85), and no association was found between sitagliptin and the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke (<i>HR</i>=1.12, 95% <i>CI</i>: 0.89-1.41; <i>HR</i>=0.99, 95% <i>CI</i>: 0.91-1.12).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In T2DM patients in Yinzhou district of Ningbo, compared with metformin alone, sitagliptin added to metformin may reduce the risk of cardiovascular death, and do not increase the incidence of overall cardiovascular events.
