Objective To discuss the accuracy and objectivity of student standardized patients (SSP) in objective structured clinical examination(OSCE). Methods On March 30 and 31, 2013, 168 seven-year program medical students of class 2006 and 2007 took part in OSCE. Differences in as-sessment results between SPP and those given by professional doctors at 3 SP sites(angina pectoris SSP station, acute cholecystitis SSP station, depression SSP station) were analyzed. Each site had 4 items for assessment, with a total score of 100. Scores were given in strict accordance with a set of unified scoring rules. Counting data were presented as x±s. Data were verified using t test. P<0.05 was considered statis-tically considerable. Results At angina pectoris station, respective scores of SSP and professional physi-cians were 85.2±7.1 and 85.5±6.6, P=0.688. At acute cholecystitis station, respective score of SSP and professional physicians were 89.1±5.2 and 88.2±6.2, P=0.150. At depression station, respec-tive score of SSP and professional physicians were 79.8±7.5 and 78.2±7.0, P=0.078. Conclusion There is no statistical difference between scores given by SSP and those given by the physicians in OSCE. This proves that SSP who received standardized training delivers fair and accurate results in OSCE , and therefore is recommended for future application.

Objective To investigate the interaction between rifampin(RFP)and levofloxacin(LVFX)in retreatment of smear positive pulmonary tuberculosis(TB). Methods One hundred retreated smear positive TB patients admitted to our hospital between January 2013 and December 2015 were randomly divided into two groups:the control group in 50 patients with only RFP treatment,and the treatment group in 50 patients with both RFP and LVFX treatments. The RFP plasma concentration was tested 0.5 h,1 h,and 2 h after intake of medicine. Sputum smear test was performed at the end of February,May,August and September to investigate the interaction between RFP and LVFX in retreatment of smear positive TB. Results The plasma concentration of RFP did not show significant difference(P > 0.05)between the control group and the treatment group at 0.5 h,1 h,and 2 h after intake of medicine. As the treatment time went on,the level of smear positive gradually decreased. The sputum smear positive rate after 2,5,8,and 9 months of treatment showed significant difference between the control group and the treatment group. After 8 months of treatment,the ratio of stabilized patients and patients under treatment also showed significant difference(P<0.05). Conclusion Rifampicin and levofloxacin have no antagonism effect in retreatment of smear positive TB,and RFP and LVFX can be used together to treat the repeated smear positive TB.
