ObjectiveTo report the short-term outcomes of a standardized, simplified and reproducible strategy of mitral valvuloplasty (MVP), which was focused on leaflet foldoplasty and anatomic anomalies of congenital mitral regurgitation (MR).MethodsConsecutive 74 patients who underwent MVP by our standardized strategy in our institution from 2016 to 2018 were included retrospectively. There were 30 males and 44 females with a median age of 18.5 (6-146) months and weight of 15.4 (7-51) kg.ResultsAnatomic anomalies of MR included: (1) subvalvular apparatus: 72 (97.3%) patients with mal-connected chordae tendineae, 31 (41.9%) with absent chordae tendineae and 14 (18.9%) with fused or dysplastic papillary muscle; (2) leaflet: 10 (13.5%) patients with cleft of anterior leaflet, 61 (82.4%) with leaflet prolapse including 56 (91.8%) with anterior leaflet prolapse; (3) annulus: 71 (95.9%) patients with annular dilatation. Leaflet foldoplasty was performed in 61 (82.4%) patients with leaflet prolapse. All patients were successfully discharged and 4 (5.4%) patients were with moderate MR. The follow-up time was 22.0 (9.1-41.8) months. During the follow-up period, 3 patients had moderate MR and 1 patient had reoperation for severe MR. All patients were in normal cardiac function with a mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 66.0%±6.1%. In addition, the mean left ventricular end-diastolic dimension was 31.8±6.0 mm, which was significant smaller than that before the operation (t=6.090, P<0.000 1).ConclusionThe standardized leaflet foldoplasty with resection of mal-connected chordae tendineae and posterior annuloplasty technique is safe and feasible with favorable short-term outcomes in MR patients.
Diagnosis is the critical component of health care and the studies of diagnostic test can provide important evidence for clinical decisions. Studies of diagnostic test are subject to different sources of bias in design, performance and reporting of studies. Therefore, researchers who understand various sources of bias can reasonably perform the diagnostic test and evaluate its quality, and will provide scientific evidences for clinical practice.

Objective To explore a new teaching mode relying on the new media platform, aiming to stimulate residency standardized trainees’ interest in learning theories related to gynecology outpatient surgery, improve practical operation skills, and achieve better teaching effects. Methods The residency standardized trainees who rotate in the gynecology outpatient of West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University between July 2021 and June 2022 were selected. According to the random number table method, the trainees were divided into the control group (using the traditional teaching mode) and the intervention group (using the teaching mode of combining the flipped classroom and simulated teaching relying on the new media platform). The assessment results, teacher evaluation, trainees self-evaluation and teaching satisfaction of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results A total of 118 trainees were enrolled, 59 in each group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, years of training and education level between the two groups (P>0.05). The total scores of evaluation scores (87.59±4.54 vs. 85.17±3.70), teachers’ evaluation (87.05±3.79 vs. 85.14±3.75), and trainees’ self-evaluation (87.81±4.41 vs. 85.54±3.96) of trainees in the intervention group were better than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The clinical thinking ability [teachers’ evaluation (24.49±1.62 vs. 23.22±2.05), trainees’ self-evaluation (25.25±1.99 vs. 23.97±2.27) and operation skills [teachers’ evaluation (37.05±1.58 vs. 36.10±1.99), trainees’ self-evaluation (36.75±2.73 vs. 35.66±2.56)] of trainees in the intervention group were better than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The satisfaction rate of the trainees in the intervention group was 98.3%, and that of the trainees in the control group was 93.2%. The teaching satisfaction of the intervention group was better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The teaching mode of combining flipped classroom and simulated teaching relying on the new media platform has effectively stimulated residency standardized trainees’ learning interest in gynecological outpatient surgery, improved trainees’ clinical practice ability, improved teaching satisfaction, achieved good teaching results, and can be promoted as a new teaching mode.
In recent years, day surgery has developed rapidly in China, but there is still a certain gap between domestic and international fields. The whole-process perioperative analgesia management standard is one of the necessities to ensure the rapid recovery and timely discharge of patients undergoing day surgery, and it is also an effective driving force to narrow the gap between domestic and international day surgery management. Based on the clinical experience of perioperative analgesia management for day surgery patients in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, this paper summarizes the implementation strategies, quality control of perioperative analgesia management and the construction of painless day surgery ward, and formulates the perioperative analgesia management standard for day surgery, which will provide a reference for the perioperative analgesia management for day surgery in China.

A metadata standard is a high level document that establishes a common way of structuring and understanding data, and includes principles and implementation issues for utilizing the standard. It helps to record their collections and processes and to structure this information, and can be used to validate data integrity and quality. Metadata standards improve the quality and interoperability of information across information technology platforms by increasing compatibility, improving the consistency and efficiency of information collection, and reducing redundancy. This article introduced the progress and features of metadata standards of clinical research, and aimed to promote the standardization of clinical research and scientific process of therapeutic evaluation.
Objective To assess clinical outcomes of hand assisted laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (HALC) and standard laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (SLC). Methods The databases of Wanfang, CNKI, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were electronically searched. The relevant literatures were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Cochrane collaboration tool for assessing risk of bias was used to assess the quality of randomized controlled trials and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess non-randomized comparative studies. Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 9 studies were included and involved 976 patients (480 patients in the HALC group and 496 patients in the SLC group). The results of meta-analysis showed that the HALC group was favor of shorter operative time as compared with the SLC group (P<0.05), but the length of incision and hospital stay were longer in the HALC group (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between these two groups regarding as the conversion rate, time to return of bowel function, feeding time, reoperative rate during hospitalization, postoperative complications rate, and harvested lymph node number (P>0.05). As for the follow-up results, the 3-year survival rate was about 90%, and 5-year survival rate was about 80%, and there were no statistical differences in terms of recurrence rate and mortality between the HALC group and the SLC group (P>0.05). Conclusions Both HALC and SLC could achieve satisfactory minimal invasive outcomes and oncologic radical effects, and HALC has an advantage of shorter operative time, yet length of incision and hospital stay are longer than SLC. Therefore, HALC could be considered as an alternative to minimal invasive right hemicolectomy.
Objective To provide the evidence on the selection and related policies of essential medicine for policy-makers through systematic review of the National Essential Medicine List(NEML) around the world. Method We systematically searched the official websites of the health authorities, like the departments of health and pharmaceutical administrations. We selected the published NEML. Two reviewers independently selected literature and extracted data. We analyzed the time of NEML published and updated, NEML committees, selection criteria, medicine category, number of medicines, and medicine information in NEML and standard treatment guidelines (STGs) as well. Results Thirty-six NEMLs from 25 countries were included with 34 in English and 2 in Chinese. From 1982 to 2009, Twenty-five countries developed their NEMLs respectively. They were updated from four months to eight years. The NEML committee members came from central government, ministry of health, pharmaceutical administrations, ministry of public health, ministry of education, essential medicine division, etc. The committees were composed of clinical specialists, health officials, pharmacists (pharmacologists), medicine educators, economist, statisticians, epidemiologist and experts from WHO/UNICEF, etc. Most of the countries took the WHO’s concept of essential medicine and selection criteria as standard. The applications of essential medicine were reviewed by considering the following aspects: safety, effectiveness, economic characteristics, the main disease burden, rational use of drug and supply. The medicines in NEMLs of 25 countries varied from 103 to 2 033, and the median is 447. The Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification was used to classify the medicines in NEMLs of 12 countries. The drug information was provided, including generic name, dosage, form of medication and administration route as well. The STGs or formularies covered from 73 to 167 common diseases, including the diagnosis, treatments, rational use of drug, contraindications, adverse effects, etc. Conclusions The NEMLs in 25 countries have shown great differences because of the variation of the social and economic developments, disease burdens and the developments of health care systems in different countries. We can learn from the experience of other countries, like Australia and South Africa, in the selection and use of essential medicines, STGs and related policies. We should develop the national essential medicine system for policy making and administration, especially the national essential medicine list for common diseases base on the high quality evidence, the local disease burden as well as specific demands in different areas.
