Development of patient versions of guidelines in Chinese mainland: A systematic survey of current practices and methods.

Objectives: To review current practices and methods underlying the development of patient versions of guidelines (PVGs) in Chinese mainland.

Methods: We systematically searched for PVGs created or published between January 2010 and February 2022. We conducted a framework analysis for the development process and assessed the compliance of PVGs using the Reporting Checklist for Public Versions of Guidelines (RIGHT-PVG).

Complete genome sequence of Bacillus velezensis WB, an isolate from the watermelon rhizosphere: genomic insights into its antifungal effects.

Objectives: Here, we report the complete genome of strain WB, isolated from the rhizosphere of a healthy watermelon from a Fusarium wilt diseased field, which possesses antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum (Fon) and reduces the incidence of Fusarium wilt in watermelon.

[Construction of perioperative oral care program for elderly patients with oral cancer based on Delphi method].

Purpose: To construct an oral care program for elderly patients with oral cancer during perioperative period.

Methods: Based on the content analysis of the guidelines and personal in-depth interviews of the doctors, nurses and patients, according to the clinical characteristics of the elderly patients with oral cancer and treatments, combined with PDCA cycle, the first draft of perioperative oral care program for the elderly patients with oral cancer was constructed. Delphi method was used to carry out two rounds of mail inquiry to 16 experts in related fields to determine the scheme.

[Establishment of an evidence-based protocol for tracheotomy care in adult patients].

Purpose: To establish a clinical practice protocol for tracheotomy care of adult patients.

Methods: Though constructive document retrieval, personnel interview and brain-storming, protocol draft was constructed. Delphi method was used in the study, and the final protocol was based on two rounds of consultation among 15 experts from 10 tertiary general hospitals.

A microarray-based gastric carcinoma prewarning system.

Aim: To develop a microarray-based prewarning system consisting of gastric cancer chip, prewarning data and analysis software for early detection of gastric cancer and pre-cancerous lesions.

Methods: Two high-density chips with 8,464 human cDNA sites were used to primarily identify potential genes specific for normal gastric mucosa, pre-cancerous lesion and gastric cancer. The low-density chips, composed of selected genes associated with normal gastric mucosa, precancerous lesion and gastric cancer, were fabricated and used to screen 150 specimens including 60 specimens of gastric cancer, 60 of pre-cancerous tissues and 30 of normal gastric mucosa.
