Methods: 170,246 outpatient data was extracted from the hospital management information system (HIS) during January 2016 to July 2016, 43,448 data was formed after the data cleaning. K-Means clustering algorithm was used to classify patients with chronic infectious diseases, and then C5.0 decision tree algorithm was used to predict the situation of patients with chronic infectious diseases. Results: Male patients accounted for 58.7%, patients living in Shanghai accounted for 85.6%. The average age of patients is 45.88 years old, the high incidence age is 25 to 65 years old. Patients was gathered into three categories: 1) Clusters 1—Important patients (4786 people, 11.72%, R = 2.89, F = 11.72, M = 84,302.95);2) Clustering 2—Major patients (23,103, 53.2%, R = 5.22, F = 3.45, M = 9146.39);3) Cluster 3—Potential patients (15,559 people, 35.8%, R = 19.77, F = 1.55, M = 1739.09). C5.0 decision tree algorithm was used to predict the treatment situation of patients with chronic infectious diseases, the final treatment time (weeks) is an important predictor, the accuracy rate is 99.94% verified by the confusion model. Conclusion: Medical institutions should strengthen the adherence education for patients with chronic infectious diseases, establish the chronic infectious diseases and customer relationship management database, take the initiative to help them improve treatment adherence. Chinese governments at all levels should speed up the construction of hospital information, establish the chronic infectious disease database, strengthen the blocking of mother-to-child transmission, to effectively curb chronic infectious diseases, reduce disease burden and mortality.展开更多

Some of these diseases spread quickly within ranks resulting in large outbreaks, and personnel deployed are also often immunologically na?ve to otherwise uncommonly-encountered pathogens. Furthermore, the chance of weaponised biological agents being used in conventional warfare or otherwise remains a very real, albeit often veiled, threat. However, such challenges also provide opportunities for the advancement of preventive and therapeutic military medicine, some of which have been later adopted in civilian settings. Some of these include improved surveillance, new vaccines and drugs, better public health interventions and inter-agency co-operations. The legacy of successes in dealing with infectious diseases is a reminder of the importance in sustaining efforts aimed at ensuring a safer environment for both military and the community at large.展开更多

The Chinese government and military forces have paid a great deal of attention to infectious disease prevention and control, and using military-civilian cooperation, they have successfully prevented numerous severe epidemic situations, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS), influenza A(H1N1), avian influenza H5N1 and H7N9, and Ebola hemorrhagic fever, while actively maintained public health, economic development, and national construction. This paper focuses on the mechanisms of the military-cooperative emergency response to infectious diseases–the joint working mechanism, the information-sharing mechanism, the research collaboration mechanism, and the joint disposal mechanism–and presents a sorted summary of the practices and experiences of cooperative emergency responses to infectious diseases. In the future, the Chinese military and the civilian sector will further strengthen the cooperative joint command system and emergency rescue force and will reinforce their collaborative information-sharing platform and technical equipment system to further improve military-civilian collaborative emergency infectious diseases disposal, advance the level of infectious disease prevention and control, and maintain public health.展开更多
