ABSTRACT
Objective To study the efficiency changes of private hospitals in Shenzhen and explore influencing factors for the utilization efficiency of health resources. Methods DEA-Tobit two-stage model was used to analyze the operating efficiency and influencing factors of Shenzhen′s private hospitals. Results The range of technical efficiency varied between 0.690 to 0.742 in six years, and the index of total factor production was consistent with the technical change index. The input and output indicators showed non-linear growth. The internal and external factors of sample hospitals jointly influence the efficiency of operation. Conclusions The two-stage method effectively reveals the dynamic efficiency change and the influencing factors of these hospitals in Shenzhen. The technical efficiency of sample hospitals fluctuates in waves in six years,with investment redundancy and insufficient output found. Sample hospitals need to strengthen their innovative application of diagnostic and therapeutic technology,and to strengthen their internal management and improve operating efficiency.
ABSTRACT
Through analyzing the existing problems and relevant solutions of TCM decoction pieces management, this article expounded the construction of TCM coding system and its construction and application in the hospital information system, attempted to apply technological standards of TCM coding system to routine TCM standardized management work through the means of informatization. At the same time, it also described the basic situation in the construction of TCM coding management information system, and promoted specific ideas, operation methods, and current condition and prospects.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the genetic polymorphisms of 15 short tandem repeat (STR) loci in Tujia ethnic group of Hubei province, and to compare the allele frequencies between Hubei Tujia and Chongqing Tujia populations.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Capillary electrophoresis and five-color fluorescent multi-amplification were applied to detect the genotypes of 15 STR loci in 333 unrelated Hubei Tujia individuals.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>One hundred and fifty one alleles were observed in the population, which is higher than 141 alleles observed in Chongqin Tujia population, and their frequencies were from 0.002 to 0.498. No significant deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium was observed (P>0.05). Statistical analysis showed that the heterozygosity of the 15 loci ranged from 0.652 to 0.867. The values of discrimination power (DP) ranged from 0.802 to 0.971. The values of excluding probability of paternity (EPP) ranged from 0.357 to 0.730, and the polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.57-0.87. The fifteen loci showed an accumulated total discrimination power (TDP) of more than 0.999 999 9, and the cumulative excluding probability of paternity was 0.999 999 7.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>This study has accumulated the population genetic data of the 15 STRs in Hubei Tujia ethnic group. The data can be used in forensic and individual identification for this population. Hubei Tujia is phylogenetically related to Chongqing Tujia, and the allele frequencies were non-distinctive (P>0.05), while the number of alleles detected, and the frequencies of some alleles observed were different.</p>
