ABSTRACT
Objective:To understand the construction status of research wards in the first model research wards in Beijing, and provide reference for promoting their high-quality development.Methods:From July to September 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted on the setting mode, facility deployment, operational efficiency, and implementation of supportive policies of the research wards among the first batch of model research wards in Beijing. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the questionnaire data.Results:The 8 hospitals surveyed had all set up specialized research wards; 5 of them had shared research wards, including 4 general hospitals and 1 specialized hospital. The number of research ward beds in each hospital ranged from 31 to 120, with only 1 hospital having research ward beds accounting for 11.3% of the hospital′s beds, while the other 7 hospitals were less than 10.0%. Compared with 2020, the number of clinical research projects carried out in the research wards of 8 hospitals in 2021 have increased by a total of 403, while the ethical review time was less than or equal to 14 working days, 2.5 working days shorter than 2020; 4 hospitals could complete the experimental project approval within 60 working days and the first visit within 22 working days, while 5 hospitals could complete the research conclusion within 14 working days. There were 2 hospitals that link the performance evaluation of research wards with salary distribution, and 3 hospitals link it with professional title evaluation and employment.Conclusions:The model research wards in Beijing have adopted different setting modes for the construction of research wards, all operating well. It is recommended to further improve such areas as selecting a research ward setting mode to fit the needs of the hospital, optimizing and integrating the resource allocation of research wards, improving operational efficiency to increase market competitiveness, and effectively implementing supportive policies related to human resource management. These practices can better promote the high-quality construction of research wards and comprehensively enhance the supportive role of clinical research in pharmaceutical and healthcare collaborative innovation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:With Beijng Chao-Yang hospital′s medical alliances taken as an example, to explore the outcomes of phased development of the hierarchical medical system via analysis of the changes of outpatient visits and average outpatient expenses of patients with chronic diseases.Methods:27 983 medical records of hypertensive patients of Chao-Yang hospital in 2014 and 2016 were collected from two communities within Chao-Yang hospital medical alliance and two communities outside. Outpatient visits, outpatient expenses per visit, and drug expenses per visit were analyzed. All these data were subject to descriptive method and double difference method in statistical analysis.Results:Since the implementation of chronic disease management program within the alliance, the number of visits and number of patients with hypertension in the experimental group decreased by about 30%, and the per-visit expenses of hypertensive outpatients within the alliance at tertiary hospitals increased by 18.45 yuan.Conclusions:The medical alliance has begun to help guide patients with chronic diseases to visit initially their community health centers; the alliance is conducive to the functional positioning of medical institutions; long-term working mechanism of urban medical alliances is yet to be formed.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To understand the real feelings of new medical employees in public hospitals and analyze the influencing factors of their job satisfaction.Methods:From September to December 2019, we adopted the phenomenological research method to conduct semi-structured interviews with 27 new clinical medical staff from three tertiary general hospitals in Beijing for the purpose of understanding their working experience. The 7-step analysis method of Colaizzi phenomenology was used to collate and analyze the data.Results:The five main factors that affect the job satisfaction of new medical staff include job background, job content, expectation and support, interpersonal interaction and hospital culture. Nineteen respondents said they worked long hours and felt overwhelmed. Twenty-five respondents reported that good interpersonal interaction helped improve their work experience.Conclusions:Their satisfaction can be improved by bettering the working environment, implementing person-post value matching, providing emotional support, improving the compensation incentive mechanism, focusing on career development and strengthening humanized management.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze challenges existing in the human resources allocation at a tertiary hospital in Beijing and explore tactics for improving health manpower quality and distribution. Methods This study adopted retrospective and descriptive research methods to analyze the basic composition of hospital human resources, namely the numbers, age, educational background and academic titles. It also made descriptive and deductive analysis on the dynamic development of hospital human resources from 2012 to 2017. Results The proportion of hospital staff is balanced in general, yet with too many off-staffs; the proportion of various staff types is irrational. The overall age structure, makeup of education backgrounds to be improved; Lack of high-level talents; Lack of emphasis on career development planning for management and nursing staff. Conclusions The development of health human resources is evolving from quantity growth to that of staff competence improvement and staff makeup optimization. The hospital should explore and innovate approaches in staffing reform, draft manpower development plan scientifically, explore innovation means to make human scientific development planning, optimize the structure of human resources, innovate the talent evaluation mechanism and give full play to the incentive role of talent evaluation, guide professional training programs for health professionals, improve the efficiency of health human resources and work for balanced and coordinated development.

Informationization should be enhanced for precision maintenance. Multi-channel maintenance model should be introduced to further lower the costs.
ABSTRACT
With the deepening of the lung cancer molecular biology research,small molecular targets antitumor drugs make breakthrough progress,the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) is one of the most attention drug.A series studies show that EGFR-TKI can enhance the antitumor activity of ionizing radiation.Therefore,EGFR-TKI combined with radiotherapy alone for poor-risk patients appears survival benefit,but can't ignore the lung toxicity.However,there is a big contro-versy that EGFR-TKI combined with chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced NSCLC.
ABSTRACT
Studies confirm that gefitinib treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)muta-tions for patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)has a clear effect,and with radiotherapy sensitiza-tion effect. Many studies both at home and abroad show that gefitinib combined with radiotherapy can signifi-cantly improve the survival times of patients,especially for the elderly patients or the patients with brain metas-tases,which has fewer adverse reactions and with higher life qualities. Therefore,gefitinib combined with radiotherapy will be an effective treatment for the patients with advanced NSCLC.

Conclusion Cinobufotalin freeze-dry powder has some side effects on rat heart and can increase HR, even lead to arrhythmia.
ABSTRACT
B-cell specific moloney leukemia virus insertion site 1(Bmi-1)gene is a core member of the polycomb group genes,considered to be a proto-oncogene;Bmi-1 plays an important role in cell self-renewal, proliferation and apoptosis. Several studies have shown that Bmi-1 is highly expressed in non-small cell lung cancer;furthermore,the expression level of Bmi-1 is closely related to the occurrence,development,incursion and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer. Bmi-1 is expected to become a novel tumor molecular marker,and provides a new direction for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
