Research on ontology construction of acupuncture effect based on ISO/TS 16843-6: 2022 / 中国针灸

In order to specify the information expression of acupuncture effect and realize the knowledge reuse and sharing, in view of animal experiments and clinical trials, the relevant knowledge of acupuncture effect is allocated. Using seven-step method and Protégé5.5.0 tool, the ontology of acupuncture effect is constructed on the base of ISO/TS 16843-6: 2022. A total of 199 classes are constructed, including 7 categories (acupuncture point, acupuncture therapy, needling method, biological process, genes and gene products, disorder, and anatomic structure), 12 object properties, 1 108 instances and 5 123 axioms. A semantic network with the characteristics of acupuncture and moxibustion is established and the structured expression for the knowledge of acupuncture effects is obtained, which lays the foundation for the innovation and development in the field of acupuncture and moxibustion.

Automatic labeling and extraction of terms in natural language processing in acupuncture clinical literature / 中国针灸

The paper analyzes the specificity of term recognition in acupuncture clinical literature and compares the advantages and disadvantages of three named entity recognition (NER) methods adopted in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. It is believed that the bi-directional long short-term memory networks-conditional random fields (Bi LSTM-CRF) may communicate the context information and complete NER by using less feature rules. This model is suitable for term recognition in acupuncture clinical literature. Based on this model, it is proposed that the process of term recognition in acupuncture clinical literature should include 4 aspects, i.e. literature pretreatment, sequence labeling, model training and effect evaluation, which provides an approach to the terminological structurization in acupuncture clinical literature.

Nurses' knowledge of universal health coverage for inclusive and sustainable elderly care services / Conhecimento dos enfermeiros sobre a cobertura universal de saúde para serviços inclusivos e sustentáveis de cuidados a idosos / El conocimiento de las enfermeras sobre la cobertura universal de salud en servicios inclusivos y sostenibles para el cuidado de adultos mayores

Objectives: to explore nurses' knowledge of universal health coverage (UHC) for inclusive and sustainable development of elderly care services. Method: this was a cross-sectional survey. A convenience sample of 326 currently practicing enrolled nurses (EN) or registered nurses (RN) was recruited. Respondents completed a questionnaire which was based on the implementation strategies advocated by the WHO Global Forum for Governmental Chief Nursing Officers and Midwives (GCNOMs). Questions covered the government initiative, healthcare financing policy, human resources policy, and the respondents' perception of importance and contribution of nurses in achieving UHC in elderly care services. Results: the knowledge of nurses about UHC in elderly care services was fairly satisfactory. Nurses in both clinical practice and management perceived themselves as having more contribution and importance than those in education. They were relatively indifferent to healthcare policy and politics. Conclusion: the survey uncovered a considerable knowledge gap in nurses' knowledge of UHC in elderly care services, and shed light on the need for nurses to be more attuned to healthcare policy. The educational curriculum for nurses should be strengthened to include studies in public policy and advocacy. Nurses can make a difference through their participation in the development and implementation of UHC in healthcare services.

Objetivos: explorar o conhecimento dos enfermeiros sobre a cobertura universal de saúde (CUS) para o desenvolvimento inclusivo e sustentável de serviços de saúde a idosos. Método: estudo transversal. Foi recrutada uma amostra de conveniência de 326 enrolled nurses (EN) ou registered nurses (RN). Os entrevistados responderam a um questionário com base nas estratégias de implementação preconizadas pelo Fórum Global da OMS para Governmental Chief Nursing Officers and Midwives (GCNOMs). As perguntas abordavam iniciativas do governo, políticas de financiamento da saúde, políticas de recursos humanos e percepção dos entrevistados sobre a importância e contribuição do enfermeiro no alcance da CUS em serviços de cuidados a idosos. Resultado: o conhecimento de enfermeiros sobre a CUS em serviço de atenção ao idoso foi razoavelmente satisfatório. Enfermeiros tanto da prática clínica como da gestão perceberam-se contribuindo mais e tendo mais importância do que aqueles que trabalham na educação. Eles eram relativamente indiferentes à política de saúde e à política. Conclusão: a pesquisa revelou uma lacuna de conhecimento considerável no conhecimento da CUS pelos enfermeiros nos serviços de cuidados a idosos e evidenciou a necessidade de enfermeiros terem mais sintonia com a política de saúde. O currículo de formação para preparar os enfermeiros deve ser reforçado para incluir estudos em política pública e advocacia. Os enfermeiros podem fazer a diferença por meio de sua participação no desenvolvimento e implementação da CUS nos serviços de saúde.

Objetivos: explorar los conocimientos que tienen las enfermeras sobre la cobertura universal de salud (CUS) para el desarrollo inclusivo y sostenible de servicios para el cuidado de adultos mayores. Método: se utilizó una encuesta transversal. Se formó una muestra de conveniencia de 326 enrolled nurses (EN) o registered nurses (RN) que actualmente estuvieran ejerciendo. Los encuestados respondieron a un cuestionario basado en las estrategias de implementación apoyadas por el WHO Global Forum for Government Chief Nursing and Midwifery Officers (WGFGCNO). Las preguntas abarcaban la iniciativa del gobierno, políticas de financiamiento de la salud, las políticas de recursos humanos y la percepción de los encuestados sobre la importancia y la contribución de las enfermeras en el logro de la CUS en los servicios de cuidado para adultos mayores. Resultados: el conocimiento de las enfermeras sobre CUS en el servicio de cuidado para los adultos mayores fue bastante satisfactorio. Tanto las enfermeras de práctica clínica y como las de gestión perciben tener un mayor aporte e importancia que las de que están en educación. Tenían un punto de vista relativamente indiferente a la política sanitaria y la política. Conclusión: la encuesta descubrió una considerable brecha en el conocimiento de las enfermeras sobre CUS en los servicios de cuidado para adultos mayores y puso de manifiesto la necesidad de que las enfermeras estén más en sintonía con la política sanitaria. El plan de estudios para la preparación de las enfermeras debe fortalecerse para incluir estudios en las políticas públicas y promoción. Las enfermeras pueden hacer una diferencia a través de su participación en el desarrollo e implementación de CUS en los servicios de salud.
