Objective To preliminarily assess the ameliorative effect of Mom’s Good Mood (MGM) on the prevalence of antenatal depression based on a pilot study, and to provide evidence for a scale-up study. Methods This study was conducted in Ma’anshan Maternal and Child Health Center as a pilot study of an implementation study conducted in China called the Perinatal Depression Screening and Management (PDSM) program. In 2019, 1 189 participants (gestational week ≤14+6 weeks) were included in the implementation group. Females were recruited in the first trimester and followed up in the second and third trimesters. At each time point, the participants’ depression status was screened by the Edinburgh postpartum depression scale (EPDS), and those who were screened as having depression were provided the MGM intervention. In 2020, 1 708 participants who underwent screening with the EPDS in either the first, second or third trimester at Ma’anshan Maternal and Child Health Center were included in the control group. Mann?Whitney U test, Chi-square, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to compare the EPDS scores and depression prevalence between the control and implementation groups to assess the ameliorative effect of MGM (screening and intervention) on antenatal depression. Results In the first trimester, there were no statistically significant differences in EPDS scores or depression prevalence between the two groups (P>0.05). In the second and third trimesters, both the EPDS scores and depression prevalence of the implementation group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). After adjusting for confounders, logistic regression analysis showed that the risks of depression in the implementation group in both the second and third trimesters were lower than those in the control group (ORsecond trimester=0.55, 95%CI 0.37 to 0.81, P=0.003; ORthird trimester=0.51, 95%CI 0.35 to 0.74, P<0.001). Conclusion Implementation of the MGM based on the primary care system can effectively reduce the prevalence of antenatal depression, providing evidence for further scale up.

ObjectiveUse information technology to establish an “Internet+” chronic disease management model to provide patients with a full process, seamless, and convenient services. Explore a new model of “Internet+” chronic disease management and care services in the region. Methods Patients with chronic diseases treated in Mianyang Central Hospital from May 2018 to April 2019 were selected. The patients were randomly divided into intervention group and control group according to the single and even number at the end of hospitalization number. The control group adopted the traditional chronic disease management mode, and the intervention group adopted the “Internet+” chronic disease management mode based on the patients’ needs. And select the nursing experts who provide “Internet+” online nursing services. Compared with the effective management before and after the implementation of “Internet+” chronic disease management, the number of patients with chronic diseases, clinical outcome indicators, the number of health education readings, the number of Internet nursing services, and the sense of professional benefit of nurses and other indicators, etc. Results A total of 143 patients were included, including 78 in the control group and 65 in the intervention group. A total of 28 nursing experts were investigated. The effective management rate of patients with chronic diseases was 78.7%. The WeChat public account “Slow Disease Window” has read nearly 90 000 person-times, and the Internet Hospital “Nursing Professional Online” has nearly 2 000 online nursing services. After participating in “Internet+” chronic disease management, the disease activity and functional status of chronic disease patients were significantly improved (P<0.05). Nursing professionals have a strong sense of professional benefits (P<0.05). Conclusions With the development of “Internet+” chronic disease management, a new mode of chronic disease management was explored to promote the management of chronic disease more convenient and efficient, so that the health education work can be homogenized, the clinical outcome of the patients was effectively improved. At the same time the career planning of nursing staff can be broadened.
The paper summarizes three revolution trends of medical service mode in the age of 5th generation mobile networks (5G), including artificial intelligence & intelligent medical service, internet of things & internet hospital, and intelligent hospital. Artificial intelligence & intelligent medical service mainly covers artificial-intelligence-assisted diagnosis, artificial-intelligence medical decision-making, and artificial-intelligence-assisted new drug research & development. Internet of things & internet hospital mainly covers internet hospitals, internet care, cloud pharmacies, and medical imaging clouds. Intelligent hospitals mainly cover intelligent clinics, intelligent wards, and intelligent management. The revolution trends count on not only techniques such as 5G, but also the support and cooperation of the government and society. The risk of information and data leak needs attention.
The national policy on high-quality development of hospitals proposes to strengthen information technology support and actively promote the multi-disciplinary team (MDT) model. How to use the “Internet Plus” technology and operation mode to promote MDT communication and improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment in the digital and intelligent information age is a direction worthy of attention and research. This paper systematically reviews the current development status of MDT informatization construction at home and abroad. Based on the current challenges and opportunities, it makes prospects for the future development of MDT informatization construction from the aspects of strengthening the digital and intelligent support of MDT operation, connecting MDT “information silos”, and deepening the construction of MDT supervision and effect evaluation system, etc.
Objective To explore the influencing factors of internet game addiction among middle school students. Methods Students from a certain district in Sichuan between September 2022 and March 2023 were included as participants. Basic information such as gender, age, whether the subjects were only children, place of residence, parental education, and subjective economic status were investigated. The nine-item Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-short form was used to investigate whether participants had internet game addiction, and the Berkman-Syme Social Network Index was used to evaluate the participants’ social level. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to conduct multivariate analysis to explore the influencing factors of internet game addiction. Results A total of 594 questionnaires were distributed, and 592 valid questionnaires were ultimately obtained. The detection rate of internet game addiction was 12.0%. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender (t=?8.281, P<0.001), age (t=3.211, P=0.001), subjective economic status in the region (t=2.025, P=0.043), and social level (t=?4.239, P<0.001) were the influencing factors of online game addiction. Due to the P value was close to the set test level (0.05), subjective economic status in the region was not considered an influencing factor of internet game addiction. Conclusion Teenagers with male gender, older age, and lower social skills are more likely to develop addiction to internet games.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a global public health problem because of its high prevalence, low awareness, poor prognosis, and high medical costs. Effective follow-up management can facilitate timely adjustment of the treatment of the CKD patients and delay the disease progression. The application of internet of things (IoT) technology in dynamic monitoring and telemedicine is helpful for the self-management of patients with chronic diseases, and can provide convenient, intelligent, and humanized medical and health services. In the future, with the rapid growth of demands of CKD management and innovations in information technology, new medical IoT industry will accelerate the intelligent development of CKD management. Multi-disciplinary and multi-industrial collaboration should be promoted to solve current challenges, such as evaluation of actual effectiveness, the system design and construction, and the accessibility of intelligent healthcare services, to ensure that IoT products can improve clinical outcomes, reduce medical expenditure, and lower disease burden.
