ABSTRACT
Objective:To comprehensively evaluate the high-quality development of some tertiary public hospitals in C city, and explore the high-quality development path of municipal public hospitals, so as to provide a basis for the formulation of relevant policies.Methods:Based on the relevant policy documents of the evaluation indicators for the high-quality development of public hospitals, and around the four dimensions of medical quality, economic efficiency, sustainable development and satisfaction, the entropy weight TOPSIS-RSR method was adopted to comprehensively evaluate the high-quality development of some tertiary public hospitals in C city in 2019 and 2020. It included all five municipal comprehensive tertiary public hospitals in C city, and included one provincial and two county-level tertiary public hospitals for comparative study.Results:In 2019 and 2020, the number of medical cooperation, the surplus of income and expenditure, and the entropy weight of scientific research project funding per 100 health technicians were large, which were the key indicators to evaluate the high-quality development of public hospitals, with the values of 0.096 and 0.109, 0.119 and 0.141, 0.123 and 0.124, respectively. According to the best classification principle, the provincial, municipal and county-level public hospitals in C city could be divided into three levels of " good" , " medium" and " poor" , and the development gap between these levels was large.Conclusions:The development of municipal public hospitals in C city has achieved remarkable results, but there are still such problems as uneven distribution of medical resources, insufficient motivation for talent training, relatively lagging discipline construction, and insufficient advantages and characteristics. In this regard, we should further optimize the allocation of medical resources, improve the operation and management system, clarify the social functions of public hospitals, and scientifically allocate core resources.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the protective effect of emodin on D-galactosamine (D-GalN)/lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute liver injury and its mechanism.Methods:A total of 40 male BALB/c mice were randomly (random number) divided into 5 groups ( n=8 in each group): the control group, the emodin group, the D-GalN/LPS group, the emodin+D-GalN/LPS group and the 3-MA+emodin+D-GalN/LPS group. D-GalN (700 mg/kg) and LPS (10 μg/kg) were intraperitoneally injected to induce acute liver injury in mice. Autophagy inhibitor 3-MA (15 mg/kg) and/or emodin (20 mg/kg) were intraperitoneally injected 30 min before the liver injury model. The animals were sacrificed under anaesthesia 6 h after D-GalN/LPS challenge, blood samples and liver tissues were collected. The levels of alanineaminotransferase (ALT) and aspartateaminotransferase (AST) in serum, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity of liver tissues were determined by colorimetric quantitative method; the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured by ELISA; the expression of LC3-II and Beclin 1 in the liver tissues were evaluated by Western blot; the pathological changes of liver was evaluated by HE staining. Animal survival rate was also analyzed. The one-way ANOVA was use to compare quantitative data, SNK- q test was used for pairwise comparison between two groups, and Games-Howell test was used when homogeneity of variance were not met. Results:Compared with the control group, the levels of ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and MPO activity [(2 476.80 ± 263.14) U/L, (271.71 ± 47.15) U/L, (537.92 ± 89.35) pg/mL, (169.74 ± 25.52) pg/mL, and (1.37 ± 0.22) U/mg] were obviously increased in the D-GalN/LPS group ( P<0.05). Compared with the D-GalN/LPS group, the levels of ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and MPO activity [(1 248.01 ± 380.70) U/L, (142.59 ± 34.63) U/L, (288.91 ± 67.21) pg/mL, (61.83 ± 13.64) pg/mL, and (0.80 ± 0.21) U/mg] were obviously decreased in the emodin+ D-GalN/LPS group ( P<0.05). Compared with the D-GalN/LPS group, the histopathological abnormalities in liver tissue were significantly alleviated and the survival rate of mice was improved in the emodin+ D-GalN/LPS group. Compared with the control group, the expression of LC3-II and Beclin1 was decreased in the liver tissue in the D-GalN/LPS group, while compared with the D-GalN/LPS group, the expression of LC3-II and Beclin1 was increased in the emodin+ D-GalN/LPS group. With co-administration of 3-MA, the protective effects of emodin in acute liver injury were reversed, the levels of AST, ALT, TNF-α, IL-6, and MPO [(2 398.78 ± 233.57) U/L, (242.79 ± 43.46) U/L, (505.07 ± 67.89) pg/mL, (151.46 ± 14.11) pg/mL, and (1.27 ± 0.15) U/mg] were increased, and the pathological damage of liver tissue was aggravated. Conclusions:Emodin alleviates D-GalN/LPS-induced acute liver injury in mice, which may be related to the activation of protein LC3-II, Beclin1 and restored autophagy.
