Objective To analyze the virologic responses of peginterferonα‐2a plus ribavirin (Peg IFNα‐2a/RBV) for patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection by a paired study . Methods Sixteen patients with HBV/HCV coinfection and 32 patients with HCV monoinfection were allocated . The virological response and biochemical response were compared between the two groups after Peg IFNα‐2a/RBV regimen treatment .Chi‐square analysis or Fisher exact analysis was used to compare the responses .Logistic analysis was conducted to evaluate factors associated with sustained virological response (SVR) .Results The median levels of HCV RNA were 6 .54 lg IU/mL in 16 patients with HBV/HCV co‐infection and 6 .98 lg IU/mL in 32 patients of HCV monoinfection ,which was statistically different (Z= 4 .124 , P< 0 .01) .Rapid virological response (RVR) was achieved in 14 cases ,early virologic response (EVR) in 12 cases ,end‐of‐treatment virological response (ETR) in 14 cases and SVR in 9 cases among patients with HBV/HCV co‐infections ,which were comparable to those of patients with HCV monoinfection (RVR:24 ,χ2 =1 .011;EVR:24 ,χ2 =0 ;ETR:23 ,χ2 =1 .474 ;SVR:21 ,χ2 =0 .400 ,all P>0 .05) .The relapse rate in HBV/HCV‐coinfected patients was significantly higher than that in HCV‐monoinfected patients (35 .7% [5/16] vs 8 .7% [2/32];χ2=4 .142 , P= 0 .042) .In HBV/HCV coinfection group ,7 cases were HBV DNA detectable ,7 cases were hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg ) positive , 13 cases were abnormal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and 12 cases were abnormal aspartate aminotransferase (AST ) levels . After treatment ,only 4 patients were HBV DNA detectable ,5 cases were HBeAg positive ,4 cases were abnormal ALT levels and 5 cases were abnormal AST levels (P= 0 .458 ,0 .716 ,0 .004 and 0 .032 , respectively) .The median level of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was 780 IU/mL and decreased to 250 IU/mL after treatment ,while the difference did not reach statistical significance (Z= 1 .826 ,P=0 .068) .A total of 4 patients achieved complete virologic response for HBV ,3 achieved partial virologic response;2 achieved HBeAg seroconversion .Logistic regression analysis showed that EVR was a positive factor for achieving SVR (OR=35 .2 ,95% CI=3 .55-349 .15 , P=0 .002) .Conclusions HCV remains at low replication level in patients with HBV/HCV coinfection .Virological responses can be achieved by Peg IFNα‐2a/RBV treatment .EVR might be a positive factor associated with SVR .

Objective To investigate the application of OSCE evaluation system on the medical skills examination of clinical medical students and the significance of this system on the training of their medical skills.Methods 20 teachers examed 150 students by the OSCE evaluation system with 4 test stations,by comparing the score of the students of different test stations by one-way ANOVA and evaluating the system by questionnaire survey with Likert 5 on the degree of satisfaction and Likert 3 on effects and intrinsic influencing factors of the system.Results The score of the first and forth test stations was lower than that in the other stations(P<0.05).8/5.48% students and 1/5% teachers were not satisfied with the system.The OSCE evaluation system could exam the psychological diathesis,ability of communication,cooperation,and clinical thinking,practical skill of the students and its effects are moderate (the score was more than 2.0).Evaluation on the intrinsic influencing factors:Students considered the questions were more difficulty in the 2nd,3rd,1st,4th test stations order.4/20% teachers considered the questions of the second test station was easy.8/40% teachers considered the duration of the second test station was too long.More than 70% students and teachers considered the other indexes were rational.Conclusion The OSCE evaluation system can play an effective role in directing the teaching and learning.It can also help to culture the comprehensive capacity of the students.We should gradually improve the design of the system by considering the intrinsic influencing factors.

Objective To compare the effect between problem-based learning and lecture-based learning for clinical teaching in the department of cardiovascular medicine. Methods Totally 110 five-year-program cardiovascular interns from June 2011 and June 2012 were selected. They were randomly divided into the PBL group(n=55) and LBL group(n=55). PBL and LBL teach-ing methods were applied in the two groups respectively. Teaching effects were evaluated by exam and questionnaire investigation. SPSS 15.0 was used to do data processing; t test was used to compare the average score of two groups;chi-square test was used to process the results of the questionnaire. P<0.05 signifies sta-tistically significant differences. Results There were statistical differences in examinational average score between PBL group and LBL group ((87.89 ±5.39) vs. (82.63 ±5.26), P<0.05). PBL group had significantly higher satisfaction rate in motivating study interests , deepening understanding of theoretical knowledge, cultivating self-learning ability, training verbal expression and developing clin-ical thinking, etc(P<0.05). Conclusions PBL teaching method demonstrates advantages in teaching of cardiovascular medicine and enhances the teaching effect. But the PBL teaching method should be improved in basic knowledge teaching, cultivation of teachers' ability and case selection.

Objective To investigate effect and mechanism of Xuebijing administration at various concentrations on ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) of rabbit limbs.Methods Thirty New Zealand rabbits were divided into control group (n =10),Xuebijing group Ⅰ (n =10) and Xuebijing group Ⅱ(n =10) according to random number table.Rabbit models of IRI in lower extremities were established.Each group received corresponding therapy after reperfusion:rabbits in Xuebijing group Ⅰ were firstly administered 4 ml/kg Xuebijing solution and 6 ml/kg isotonic saline; rabbits in Xuebijing group Ⅱ were administered 2 ml/kg Xuebijing solution and 8 ml/kg isotonic saline; rabbits in control group were simply administered 10 ml/kg isotonic saline.Venous blood samples were collected before reperfusion and at 1 h,2 h,4 h after reperfusion to measure coagulation parameters (APTT,Fib,INR and PT) and biochemical items (ALB,LDH and CK).Results APTT in Xuebijing group Ⅰ presented obvious improvement at 1 h and 4 h after reperfusion as compared with control group (P < 0.01).PT in Xuebijing groups Ⅰ and lⅡ was significantly longer after reperfusion than that before reperfusion (P <0.05).Fib level in Xuebijing group Ⅰ was much higher at 4 h after reperfusion than that before reperfusion (P < 0.05).ALB level at 1 hour after reperfusion showed no statistical differences from that before reperfusion in Xuebijing groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P > 0.05).LDH and CK levels in Xuebijing group Ⅰ were much lower than those in control group after reperfusion (P < 0.05).Conclusions Xuebijing injection relieves limb IRI,with better effect in Xuebijing group Ⅰ than in Xuebijing group Ⅱ.Therapeutic mechanism may be associated with its involvement in adjusting clotting function and mitigating injury of muscle tissues.
