Objective To evaluate the performance of n neonatal inpatient medical services in municipal hospitals based on DRG-indicators.Methods Medical records of neonatal inpatients reported by all municipal medical institutions were collected, and the top 10 hospitals were included in the analysis. The medical service was evaluated from the three dimensions of service ability, service efficiency, and medical quality and safety, and the comprehensive index method was used to compare the medical service with the list of provincial key clinical specialties.Results The kinds of DRG groups were comprehensive, with no death cases in the low-risk group. Hospital A ranked first in terms of capacity index and comprehensive ranking, while hospitals D and H ranked first in efficiency index, and Hospital E ranked first in terms of DRG groups and CMI.Conclusion The coverage of neonatal disease treatment was wide and the medical quality was pretty well in the city. However, there is a need for balanced development between medical service capacity and efficiency, and more attention should be paid to the specify dimensions of indicators, rather than a single comprehensive ranking.

Guide:: 
Objective To apply the risk matrix to assess the risk of nosocomial infection management in upper second-class general hospitals.Methods The incidence rate, infection site, increased length of hospital stay, increased hospitalization cost, outcome, and monthly incidence variation coefficient of patients with nosocomial infection in each department in 2021 were used to quantify the probability of occurrence and consequence indicators, and the risk identification of internal medicine, surgery, and obstetrics and gynecology and children systems was carried out. Percentile method (P20, P40, P60, P80) was used to grade the occurrence possibility and consequence, establish the risk matrix table, and analyze and determine the high-risk departments.Results The high-risk departments in internal medicine were oncology department, geriatric disease department, general medicine department and infectious disease department; the high-risk departments in surgical medicine were neurosurgery department, otolaryngology department and orthopedics department; the high-risk departments in gynecology and pediatrics system were obstetrics and gynecology.Conclusion The risk assessment model of nosocomial infection based on risk matrix truly and objectively reflects the risk of nosocomial infection in various departments of primary hospitals, which suggests that primary hospitals should give priority to the prevention and control strategy of nosocomial infection in high-risk general departments, and pay attention to key departments such as neonatology.

Objective To take 57 tertiary general hospitals in Shandong Province as study samples, to evaluate the medical quality and operation efficiency, and to provide references for strengthening connotation construction and improving the refined management level.Methods Entropy weighted technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) and data envelopment analysis (DEA) were respectively used to evaluate the medical quality and operation efficiency in sample hospitals, by constructing the evaluation index system.Results In terms of medical quality, there was significant difference in highlevel surgical proportion and CMI among sample hospitals, with the maximum weight of both. The top ranked hospitals were A1, A2, A3, A4 and A29, all of which were tertiary and mostly provincial hospitals. In terms of operation efficiency, the overall efficiency of 57 sample hospitals was relatively high, but imbalance development still existed, with 22 hospitals DEA effectiveness, 12 hospitals DEA weakly effectiveness, and 23 hospitals DEA ineffectiveness. There was a positive correlation between medical quality and  technical efficiency.Conclusion There is a big space for improvement of the medical quality and operation efficiency in some sample hospitals. They should focus on functional orientation, continuously enhance medical technology level and internal management capability, optimize resources allocation, and transform from scale expansion to quality and efficiency improvement, in order to promote the high-quality development of hospitals.

Objective To analyze the disease characteristics of inpatient deaths in a tertiary general hospital from 2018 to 2022, and provide reference for the rational allocation of medical resources and the strengthening of medical quality management.Methods All inpatient information from the hospital information system from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022 were extracted for statistical analysis from the aspects of gender,age,death disease,case fatality rate, and death disease composition of hospitalized deaths with the use of Excel 2007 and SPSS 18.Results The mortality rate of inpatients was 0.64%. There were 443 male cases (65.63%) and 232 female cases(34.37%)  among the 675 deaths. The top three causes of death were circulatory system diseases, respiratory system diseases, and tumors accounting for 28.44%,28.30%,and 27.56% of total deaths, respectively. The gender ratio of male to female deaths was 1.91∶1, the fatality rate was higher in males than in females, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=46.068, P<0.001). The higher the age, the higher the fatality rate. The mortality rate rapidly increased after the age of 50.Conclusion The mortality rate of inpatients in the hospital is generally low, and the elderly are at high risk of death. Circulatory system diseases, malignant tumors and respiratory system diseases were the main causes of death.In medical work, medical resources should be scientifically and reasonably allocated based on patient gender, age, high incidence of mortality, and department characteristics to reduce case fatality rate.

Guide:: 
Objective To analyze the coupling coordination of medical resources supply and utilization in Guangdong Province in the past five years, and to provide theoretical support for optimizing resources supply and spatial distribution and promoting the coordinated development of supply and utilization in Guangdong Province.Methods The supply and utilization level of medical resources in 21 cities in Guangdong Province in 2018 and 2022 were analyzed by coupling coordination model and GIS spatial analysis.Results The comprehensive level of medical resource supply in Guangdong Province increased from 0.37 to 0.45, and the comprehensive level of utilization decreased from 0.48 to 0.39. In 2018 and 2022, the medical resources supply subsystem and utilization subsystem were in a high-level coupling state, with the mean values of 0.97 and 0.96, respectively. However, the mean values of the coupling coordination degree did not change much in the past five years, 0.64 and 0.63 respectively, and were in a moderate coordination state, showing a trend of high in the west and low in the east, and high in the north and low in the south, with spatial aggregation.Conclusion The coupling coordination degree between medical resource supply and utilization is not high, and the regional differences are obvious. In formulating policies to optimize the distribution of medical resources, attention should be paid to the coordinated development of the two subsystems, and corresponding strategies should be proposed according to the different coupling coordination degrees and lagging types of different cities and regional heterogeneity. At the same time, the advantages of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area should be taken into account to strengthen inter-regional cooperation and realize the optimal allocation of resources in different regions.

Guide:: 
Objective To analyze the effect of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) on hospital visits for respiratory diseases in Jiaxing.Methods We collected daily air NO2 monitoring data, meteorological factors and hospital visits for respiratory diseases in Jiaxing from 2019 to 2021.We used Wilcoxon rank sum test and generalized addition model (GAM) to analyze the acute effects of air NO2 on hospital visits for respiratory diseases.Results The average daily concentration of NO2 exceeded the standard for 9 days. The daily hospital visits for respiratory diseases and childhood respiratory diseases on days when air NO2 exceeded the national standard were higher than those on qualified days. In the single-day lag effect analysis, the excess risk (ER) of daily hospital visits for respiratory diseases and adult respiratory diseases both reached the maximum on lag4, while the ER of daily hospital visits for childhood respiratory diseases reached the maximum on lag3 with ER(95%CI) being 2.23% (1.52%-2.94%), 1.73%(1.06%-2.41%) and 2.73%(1.73%-3.74%) with NO2 concentration increase per 10 μg/m3, respectively. In the cumulative lag effect analysis, the ER of daily hospital visits for respiratory diseases, adult and childhood respiratory diseases all reached the maximum on lag07, with ER(95%CI) being 5.35%(4.06%6.66%), 3.47%(2.25%-4.70%) and 7.17%(5.31%-9.07%) with NO2 concentration increase per 10 μg/m3, respectively. The maximum ER of hospital visits for childhood respiratory diseases was higher than that for adults.Conclusion The increase of NO2 concentration in Jiaxing may lead to an increase in hospital visits for respiratory diseases with a lag effect, and the health protection of children′s respiratory system should be especially strengthened.

Objective  Accurate and standardised data form the foundation for reliable research findings. Taking lung surgery as a case study, we analyse the data traits of an anesthesia information system and undertake preprocessing such as encompassing cleaning, conversion, integration and imputation to build a researchready dataset.Methods Relevant data from the anesthesia information system of patients undergoing lung surgery at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between April 2021 and November 2022 were collected. The characteristics of the source data were analysed, and the Python and SAS software were proposed for data preprocessing. Text data were transformed into numerical values for the ease of data mining using Python's SPLIT statements, SAS macros, and functions. Missing values were filled, and anomalies, inconsistencies, and redundant data were corrected through data cleaning and data reduction. Data integration was achieved through NOUNIQUEKEY, SQL and LAG statements to expand the data volume.Results Two Excel sheets were extracted from the anaesthesia information system and the hospital information system, comprising a total of 1 835 anesthesia records and 46 612 medical records. Analysis of the source data revealed that the anaesthesia information system had idiosyncratic medical lexicon, varied semantic expressions, multiple outlines for identical drugs, and certain drugs ending in "alternate". Based on the given data characteristics and semi-structured data structure, we compiled three macros to clean and validate all drug names, standardise medical terminology, and unify outlines. This process led to the extraction of 12 drugs for pre-anaesthesia, 24 drugs for intraoperative use, and 12 drugs for analgesic pumps. Secondary completion of missing data was performed, as well as noise reduction and cleaning of inconsistent data. Forty-eight anesthesia records (2.62%) of non-pulmonary were excluded and 10 irrelevant fields for the mining task were removed. After data integration, 1 748 cases of anesthesia data (97.82%) were matched with medical prescription data. After the data preprocessing described above, the final structured dataset consisted of 1 748 patients and 99 variables.Conclusion The anaesthesia data preprocessing process developed through the analysis of source data achieves data cleaning, data integration, data transformation and data reduction, and thus obtains standardised and precise drugs data. It provides a methodological reference for data cleaning and structuring of anaesthesia information in other institutions and at the same time provides a reliable data base for research that needs to use high quality anaesthesia medication data, which will contribute to the depth and advancement of related research.

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) statistics are updated by American Cancer Society every 3 years based on morbidity provided by the population cancer registry and mortality provided by the National Center for Health Statistics. In 2023, about 153 020 people will be diagnosed with CRC and 52 550 will die from the disease, including 19 550 cases and 3 750 deaths among people under 50 years old. The magnitude of the decline in CRC incidence has changed, from 3%4% per year in 20002010 to 1% per year in 20112019. The proportion of rectal cancer increased from 27% in 1995 to 31% in 2019, and CRC incidence was migrating to the left colon. From 2011 to 2020, CRC mortality overall decreased by 2% per year, but CRC mortality increased by 0.5%3.0% per year in the native Americans under 50 years old and under 65 years old. In summary, despite the continual decline in overall mortality, CRC is rapidly shifting towards younger, more advanced stages and development in the left colon/rectum. In this paper, the important contents of the updated data are sorted out and briefly interpreted. At the same time, compared with the present situation of CRC in our country, we can reveal and analyze the cause of the rising incidence of CRC to provide reference for CRC diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To analyze the hotspots and trends of Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) research in China in order to provide reference for the research direction.Methods The CNKI was used to retrieve the DIP-related literature, and descriptive analysis was conducted on the basic information such as the publication time of the literature. The social network method was used to analyze the core authors and high-frequency keywords, and visualize the connection between network nodes.Results From 2011 to 2023, a total of 545 related DIP literatures were published. There were 178 core journal literatures (32.66%) and 367 non-core journal literatures (67.34%). Since 2016, the DIP literature has rapidly increased, with over 200 articles published in 2023. There were 71 core authors in this field, forming 5 multi-person cooperation groups, led by Gao Guangying and Tian Jiashuai, with a total of 278 articles published. The network cograph and centrality analysis of high-frequency keywords showed that "medical insurance payment", "public hospitals", "fine management", "payment methods", and "cost control" ranked at the top of the degree centrality and proximity centrality rankings; while the intermediary centrality of "fine management" and "medical insurance payment" was relatively large.Conclusion The literature in DIP field is showing a continuous growth trend in China, with multiple research teams formed by core authors who have a greater influence and academic leadership role. The hotspots mainly focus on medical insurance payment and fine management in public hospitals. The development trend will go deep into many fine links such as cost control of public hospitals.
