To measure and analyse national EQ-5D data to provide norms for the Chinese general population by age, sex, educational level, income employment status. The instrument was included in National Health Services Survey 2008 (n = 120,703) health-related quality of life (HRQoL). All descriptive analyses socio-economic status (educational status) clinical characteristics (discomfort during past 2 weeks, diagnosed with chronic diseases 6 months hospitalised 12 months) were stratified sex age group....
This study analyse how subjective well-being (SWB) in a Chinese population varies with health status, age, sex, region and socio-economic characteristics. In the Household Health Survey 2010, face-to-face interviews were carried out urban rural counties eastern, middle western areas of China (n = 8,000, aged 15–102 years). To measure global self-rated question, EQ-5D descriptive system, visual analogue scale status was included. SWB, validated version question on self-reported happiness,...
ObjectivesTo obtain a nationally representative Chinese three-level EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire value set based on the time trade-off (TTO) method.MethodsA multistage, stratified, clustered random sample was used. The study design followed an adapted UK Measurement and Valuation of Health protocol. Each respondent valued 11 states plus state 33333 "unconscious" using TTO method in face-to-face interviews. Three types models were explored: ordinary least squares, general weighted...
In the 1990s, China introduced a "free" tuberculosis (TB) care policy under national TB control program. Recently, as part of new diagnosis and treatment model, it has been recommended that integrated model scale up. This paper examines whether or not designated hospitals in selected project sites have provided according to local guidelines, analyzes actual practices expenditures involved completing treatment. It also explores reasons why cannot be effectively implemented model.This study...
Tuberculosis (TB) often causes catastrophic economic effects on both the individual suffering disease and their households. A number of studies have analyzed patient household expenditure TB care, but there does not appear to be any that assessed incidence, intensity determinants health (CHE) relating care in China. That will objective this paper. The data used for study were derived from baseline survey China Government – Gates Foundation Phase II program. Our analysis included 747 cases....
Background: Surgery is the primary treatment for locally advanced thyroid cancer. For some cases, R0/R1 resection could not be achieved at initial diagnosis and neoadjuvant would an option. Anlotinib a multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which demonstrated antitumor activity in radioiodine-refractory differentiated cancer medullary We aimed to evaluate efficacy safety of anlotinib setting. Methods: This single-arm phase II study investigated (12 mg orally daily, 2 weeks on/1 week off) 2-6...
To investigate the feasibility of deriving experience-based visual analogue scale (VAS) values for EQ-5D-3L health states using national general population survey data in China. The was included National Health Services Survey (n = 120,709, aged 15–103 years) to measure health-related quality life. respondents reported their current status on a VAS and completed questionnaire, enabling modelling association between self-reported problems EQ-5D dimensions severity levels. were generally...
AIMTo evaluate the cytological diagnostic capacity and sample quality of slow-pull technique compare them with different suction techniques. METHODSFrom July 2010 to December 2015, 102 patients pancreatic solid lesions who underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) 22-gauge needles were retrospectively evaluated.EUS-FNA diagnosis was based on a examination, final comprehensive standard diagnosis, surgical pathology clinical or imaging follow-up.Cytological...
The household registration system (Hukou) in China classifies persons into rural or urban citizens and determines eligibility for state-provided services welfare. Not taking actual residence account may underestimate rural–urban differences. This study investigates inequalities self-reported health outcomes among older adults aged 60+, both Hukou residence, adjusting sociodemographic determinants, based on the Health Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) 2011 2015. Self-Rated (SRH) was...
Health expenditure for tuberculosis (TB) care often pushes households into catastrophe and poverty. New Cooperative Medical Scheme (NCMS) aims to protect from catastrophic health (CHE) impoverishment in rural China. This article assesses the effect of NCMS on relieving CHE TB Three hundred fourty-seven cases are included analysis. We analyze incidence intensity poverty, assess protective by comparing before after reimbursement. After out-of-pocket (OOP) payment care, 16.1 % non-poor fall...
Evaluations on different aspects of the performance public hospitals in China have been conducted, usually based indicators developed by literature review and expert suggestions. The patient perspective was not always considered. This study aims to identify what patients care most about China's exclusively from a perspective. A mix stratified sampling typical used select 15 Jiangsu Province China. In each sampled hospital, convenient sample six outpatients inpatients selected conduct...
Background: Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine tumor with an increasing incidence. Limited treatment options are available for patients advanced or recurrent metastatic disease, resulting in a poor prognosis. Surufatinib targets multiple kinases (vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, fibroblast receptor-1, and colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor) involved angiogenesis immune evasion. has demonstrated promising antitumor activity various solid tumors. This study aimed to...
Background: The population is aging much faster in China than other low- and middle-income countries. With the accelerated of population, incidence disease burden age-related diseases have also continued to increase. Exploring crucial for early prevention, assessing extent aging, achieving goal healthy aging. Methods: We used dataset from Global Burden Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD), selected data on incidence, prevalence, China, 1997, 2007, 2017. classified diseases, which...
Exercise is recommended as an effective lifestyle behaviour for adults to prevent and treat hypertension. In this study, a randomized-effect meta-analysis was used analyse the influence of exercise interventions on blood pressure in patients with hypertension.Candidate papers were retrieved from PubMed, Web Science, Embase, Cochrane Library electronic databases, 46 studies finally included analysed.It shown that preplanned walking (systolic (SBP): WMD (weighted mean difference) = -5.94, 95%...
The left bundle branch block (LBBB) is associated with ventricular septal mid-wall fibrosis (SMF) in patients dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, whether LBBB also SMF preserved ejection fraction (LVEF) remains unclear. We performed a retrospective study of 210 LVEF (male, n = 116; female, 94; mean age, 44 ± 17 years). was defined as QRS duration ≥140 ms for men or ≥ 130 women, QS rS V1-V2, mid-QRS notching slurring at least two leads (V1, V2, V5, V6, I, and aVL). determined by late...

China has recently adopted the "TB designated hospital model" to improve quality of tuberculosis (TB) treatment and patient management. Considering that inpatient service often results in high financial burden, therefore influences adherence treatment, it is critical better understand TB admission rate cost, as well their influential factors this new model.
