The prevention and control of hospital infection should be precise. Otherwise, a lot of medical resources will be wasted. To achieve accuracy, prevention and control should be considered from the microbial level to enhance its scientific nature. It is specifically reflected in the need of having knowledge of microorganisms, understanding the pathogens of infection and their transmission routes, therefore to carry out prevention and control work contrapuntally. Specific measures include infection surveillance at the microbial level, establishing the idea and habits of infection diagnosis from the microbial level, being familiar with microbial perspective to identify infection risks and vulnerabilities, implementing evidence-based prevention and control measures for different pathogens, encouraging researches on infection control and management at the microbial level, and developing precise prevention and control regulations, standards, or guidelines for specific pathogens.
Precision medicine is a medical paradigm founded on individual genetic information amalgamated with extensive clinical data to offer patients precise diagnoses and treatments. Genetic testing forms the cornerstone of accurate diagnosis, and skilled professionals in fields like clinical medicine, molecular biology, and bioinformatics play a crucial role in realizing the potential of precision medicine. This paper presents reference suggestions for the continuing education approach for relevant technical personnel. The main emphasis is on conducting routine face-to-face and hands-on training to enhance theoretical knowledge and professional skills. Secondly, there is a need to modify the training approach by reinforcing molecular biology, bioinformatics, and other courses, enhancing assessment methods, gradually implementing specialized training in precision medicine subspecialties, and ensuring effective clinical practice and management of precision medicine.
Mixed reality technology is new digital holographic imaging technology that generates three-dimensional simulation images through computers and anchors the virtual images to the real world. Compared with traditional imaging diagnosis and treatment methods, mixed reality technology is more conducive to the advantages of precision medicine, helps to promote the development of medical clinical application, teaching and scientific research in the field of orthopedics, and will further promote the progress of clinical orthopedics toward standardization, digitization and precision. This article briefly introduces the mixed reality technology, reviews its application in the perioperative period, teaching and diagnosis and treatment standardization and dataization in the field of orthopedics, and discusses its technical advantages, aiming to provide a reference for the better use of mixed reality technology in orthopedics.
Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the major public health concerns worldwide. Since the development of precision medicine, the filed regarding TB control and prevention has been brought into the era of precision medicine. Although great progress has been achieved in the accurate diagnosis, treatment and management of TB patients, we have to face several challenges. We should seize the opportunity, and develop and improve novel measures in TB prevention on the basis of precision medicine. The accurate diagnosis criteria, treatment regimen and management of TB patients should be carried out according to the standard of precision medicine. We aim to improve the treatment of TB patients and prevent the transmission of TB in the community, thereby contributing to the achievement of the End TB Strategy by 2035.
ObjectivesTo initially construct a scientific, reasonable and precision medicine technology value judgment framework suitable for China’s national conditions based on expert consultation method, so as to provide scientific value judgment system support for China's medical insurance decision-making.MethodsThe preliminary evaluation indicator system for precision medicine technology value was established by using literature analysis and expert consultation method, and the direct weighting method was used to determine the indicators weight.ResultsAfter two rounds of expert consultation, an indicator system suitable for the value judgment of precision medicine technology in China was constructed, including 5 primary indicators (health needs, health effects, economics, innovation and suitability) and 14 secondary indicators. Each indicator was weighted according to importance.ConclusionsA set of precision medicine value judgment indicator system suitable for China has been initially established, which lays a certain foundation for further measurement research of the indicator system and provides a scientific basis for medical insurance decision-making.
Precision medicine is an individualized clinical research model established according to gene, environment, lifestyle and other information. As an innovative method of clinical trials, the main scheme design breaks the barriers of traditional randomized controlled trials to the evaluation of targeted therapies in precision medicine and improves the efficiency of clinical research. This paper will systematically introduce the types, concepts and principles of the main scheme design of the new method of precision medicine clinical trial design, and summarize the advantages and limitations of the main scheme design combined with classic cases, aiming at providing scientific and rigorous methodological guidance and clinical practice experience for precision medicine scientific research design.
Precision poverty alleviation is the key task of China’s development, and its accuracy needs to be ensured in the implementation process. From the perspective of policy tools, this article defines the types of precision health poverty alleviation policy tools and explains the specific tools included in each type. Precision health poverty alleviation includes precision identification, precision implementation and precision assessment. This article also analyzes the selection of policy tools in different links. On this basis, combined with the choice of policy tools and the actual development of China, the problems in the application of different types of policy tools are summarized, and corresponding suggestions are put forward based on the existing problems. The purpose of this article is to providea reference for promoting the implementation of precision health poverty alleviation policies.
The "All of Us" research program is a research project supported by the National Institutes of Health. By recruiting over 1 million volunteers residing in the United States, the project builds a strong research resource to promote the exploration of biological, clinical, social, and environmental determinants of health and disease. This paper introduced the design plan of the "All of Us" research program systematically and provided information that can be used for the construction of a million natural population cohort of precision medicine in China.
Health poverty alleviation is an important practice in implementing the basic strategy of precision poverty alleviation. It is also an important measure to win the battle against poverty in rural areas. Through the investigation of local medical and health conditions, West China Hospital of Sichuan University built a demand-oriented framework for medical poverty alleviation in Ganzi Prefecture, and gradually carried out precision top-level design, discipline construction, technical training, talent training, endemic disease prevention and control; through establishinga regional medical cooperation network, built featured specialies, built the backbone of medical and health forces, achieved the prevention of endemic diseases throughout life cycle, and improved the overall medical and health service capacity of Ganzi Prefecture. This article introduces the exploration and practice of the demand-oriented model in Ganzi Prefecture by West China Hospital of Sichuan University, aiming at providing a guide for the precision health poverty alleviation in China.
Precision medicine is a novel medical modality based on genome sequencing, bioinformatics and big data science. The studies regarding tuberculosis always concentrated on the bacteria and host in the setting of precision medicine. This review mainly introduces the application of precision medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis. The limits of the Chinese studies with respect to precision medicine in tuberculosis are also discussed. Moreover, the article predicates its future development.
