Web-based decision aids for cancer clinical decisions: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of web-based decision aids (WDAs) on cancer-related clinical care in terms of different decision categories and by different cancer types.

Methods: Literature retrieval utilized highly inclusive algorithms searching randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library and manual searching of eligible studies from reference lists of relevant articles. Two researchers examined the articles selected separately and extracted the information about the studies (e.

Personalized hypertension management based on serial assessment and telemedicine (PHMA): a cluster randomize controlled trial protocol in Anhui, China.

Background: Despite tremendous investment worldwide, hypertension treatment and control rates remain low. The complexity and long-term dynamics of influencing factors make personalized management inevitable and challenging. This protocol describes Personalized Hypertension Management in Anhui, China (PHMA), a project that uses a package of innovative approaches in tailoring interventions to individual patient's dynamic complications and contexts.

Smartphone and web-based independent consultation and feedback for joint replacement surgeries: a randomized control trial protocol.

Background: Cost control and usage regulation of medical materials (MMs) are the practical issues that the government pays close attention to. Although it is well established that there is great potential to mobilize doctors and patients in participating MMs-related clinical decisions, few interventions adopt effective measures against specific behavioral deficiencies. This study aims at developing and validating an independent consultation and feedback system (ICFS) for optimizing clinical decisions on the use of MMs for inpatients needing joint replacement surgeries.

Application and Evaluation of SPD Based Logistics Management Model for Medical Consumables in Clinical Nursing Departments.

Background: Supply, processing, and distribution (SPD) model is sparingly used in hospitals in China. We evaluated its effects on the management efficiency, quality control, and operating costs of medical consumables (MCs) in the clinical nursing surroundings in a single Chinese hospital-Anhui Provincial Hospital from 2014 to 2015.

Methods: Amount-based packages (ABP) and procedure-based packages (PBP) models were created.

[Research on the Construction of SPD Intelligent Logistics].

This paper introduced the workflow and use effect of SPD intelligent logistics supply chain management system in medical consumables management, analyzed the problems encountered in the process of hospital introduction of SPD management mode, and used PDCA principle to promote the hospital SPD before and after. using the PDCA principle to SPD before and after the introduction in such aspects as propaganda, information, system, safety management process continuously improve, in order to enhance the level of hospital consumables lean management and provide the reference for the introduction of the management system of hospital.

Synthetic Study toward Total Synthesis of (±)-Germine: Synthesis of (±)-4-Methylenegermine.

The total synthesis of 4-methylenegermine is described.

The Application of Collaborative Business Intelligence Technology in the Hospital SPD Logistics Management Model.

Background: We aimed to apply collaborative business intelligence (BI) system to hospital supply, processing and distribution (SPD) logistics management model.

Methods: We searched Engineering Village database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Google for articles (Published from 2011 to 2016), books, Web pages, etc., to understand SPD and BI related theories and recent research status.

SPD-based Logistics Management Model of Medical Consumables in Hospitals.

Background: With the rapid development of health services, the progress of medical science and technology, and the improvement of materials research, the consumption of medical consumables (MCs) in medical activities has increased in recent years. However, owing to the lack of effective management methods and the complexity of MCs, there are several management problems including MC waste, low management efficiency, high management difficulty, and frequent medical accidents. Therefore, there is urgent need for an effective logistics management model to handle these problems and challenges in hospitals.

Refining and validating a two-stage and web-based cancer risk assessment tool for village doctors in China.

The big gap between efficacy of population level prevention and expectations due to heterogeneity and complexity of cancer etiologic factors calls for selective yet personalized interventions based on effective risk assessment. This paper documents our research protocol aimed at refining and validating a two-stage and web- based cancer risk assessment tool, from a tentative one in use by an ongoing project, capable of identifying individuals at elevated risk for one or more types of the 80% leading cancers in rural China with adequate sensitivity and specificity and featuring low cost, easy application and cultural and technical sensitivity for farmers and village doctors. The protocol adopted a modified population-based case control design using 72, 000 non-patients as controls, 2, 200 cancer patients as cases, and another 600 patients as cases for external validation.
