Objective:To explore and improve the teaching model and method of basic courses of computer application in Military Medical University so as to enhance the teaching quality and effect of the courses.Methods: Through analysis and discussion for the facing problem in basic teaching course of computer application of military medical university, and adopting series of teaching methods included that confirmed teaching aim, innovated teaching idea, explored group instruction and emphasized curriculum development, and combining teaching experiences, some opinions and suggestions were proposed to strengthen and improve the teaching quality of basis course of computer application.Results:After improved the teaching methods for basic courses of computer application, the project assessment and actual measurement of students' ability showed that the students' knowledge level and ability were greatly improved than formerly students, and the teaching level of the basic course of computer application also were enhanced.Conclusion: Under the new situation, basic course teaching of computer application in military medical university is facing new challenges, and the corresponding measurements should be adopted to enhance the teaching quality so as to satisfy the requirement of compound talent cultivation for military medicine under the informatization age.

Objective To study the effect of hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning management on the expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and Cx43 in a rat abdominal skin flap model of ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Eighteen male adult SD rats,weight ranged from 220-250 g,were randomly divided into three groups:sham group (SH),ischemia-reperfusion group (IR) and hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning group (HBO).All the rats in HBO group received hyperbaric oxygen treatment twice each day,apart 12 hours,during the last three days before operation.Abdominal skin flap with superficial epigastric artery as pedicle was established.In HBO and IR group,3 hours of ischemia was performed.On the 3rd postoperative day,samples were taken to assess the expression of MMP-9,MMP-2 and Cx43 by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot.Results Compared with IR group,the expression of Cx43 was significantly increased (IR 15.03±3.66;HBO 36.01±4.12) and the ex pression of MMP-9 and MMP-2 was decreased (MMP 2:IR 12.01±1.23;HBO 5.98±1.48;MMP9:IR 16.77±2.01;HBO 11.48±1.77).Conclusions Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning for the rat abdominal skin flap model of ischemia-reperfusion injury has inhibitory effect on the expression of MMP-9 and MMP-2,and stimulative effect on the expression of Cx43.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of three screening questionnaires for COPD in the community residents of Songjiang District, Shanghai, and to provide a basis for selecting COPD screening questionnaire and process that are more suitable. MethodsCommunity residents aged 40 years or over were randomly selected from the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank for the study with screening questionnaires and spirometry. Questionnaires included the COPD screening questionnaire (COPD-SQ), the COPD population screener (COPD-PS) and the revised COPD diagnostic questionnaire (revised-CDQ). Evaluation of the efficacy of these questionnaires was based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the subjects. DeLong test was used to compare the accuracy of different questionnaires; Z test was used to compare the accuracy of different cut-off values for the same questionnaire. ResultsAmong 3 184 community residents, a total of 259 (8.1%) COPD patients were screened by spirometry. AUC values of these 3 screening questionnaires were >0.7 indicating that they were reliable COPD screening tools. The sensitivity and specificity of the questionnaires at the recommended cut-off values were COPD-SQ (63.7% and 72.2%), COPD-PS (12.0% and 96.1%), and revised CDQ (78.8% and 52.7%), with the COPD-SQ having the highest screening accuracy (AUC=0.754). The optimal and recommended cut-off values for the three questionnaires differed in this population, but the difference in accuracy was statistically significant only for COPD-PS. The optimal cut-off values for the three questionnaires differed between male and female, and the sensitivity and accuracy of COPD-SQ and COPD-PS improved when lower cut-off values were used for women. The AUC was greater when two questionnaires were utilized simultaneously for screening, but the differences were not statistically significant. ConclusionThe COPD-SQ is recommended for primary COPD screening; a lower cut-off value for women should be considered. The COPD screening questionnaire needs to be further improved for the early diagnosis and treatment of COPD patients.
