Thirty-five patients with ketosis-prone diabetes (KPD) and 38 patients with newly-diagonosed common type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) were treated with insulin for 3 months.The results showed that the existing insulin resistance in patients with KPD was mild as compared with common type 2 DM, and the recovery of insulin sensitivity was less marked in patients with KPD after blood glucose was well controlled.

Outstanding traditional culture of traditional Chinese medicine contains rich hu-manistic knowledge and is the precious spiritual resource and important education material for moral education. Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine gave full play of outstanding traditional cul-ture of traditional Chinese medicine in moral education and integrated it into moral education thus to innovate teaching methods and expand development room of moral education.

System combing the internal unity of traditional Chinese medicine culture and socialist core values is the demands of both contemporary TCM culture intrinsic appeal and also the practice of socialist core values. Based on exploring the inner link between the core value of traditional Chinese medicine culture and socialist core values, this article discuss the specific path of promoting socialist core values in the process of TCM culture inheritance and innovation.

Through the theoretical analysis of teaching reform and quality management in tradi-tional Chinese medicine col-leges, this paper puts forward the necessity of improving the quality management and optimizing the reform of education and teaching. Meanwhile, this paper further expounds the comprehen-sive, guiding, operable, qualitative and quantitative principles of teaching reform and quality management in traditional Chinese medicine colleges. Based on the above analysis, the paper puts forward and prac-tices the reform countermeasures to improve the interactive mechanism between the quality of graduates and the reform of teaching in traditional Chinese medicine colleges. The countermeasures include establishing an effective quality tracking feedback mechanism for graduates, actively carrying out the monitoring and evalu-ation of teaching quality, and constructing the measurement and evaluation system of teaching quality of traditional Chinese medicine education. This paper combines the needs of the current society for the culti-vation of talents of traditional Chinese medicine and the training quality standards, so as to promote the development of traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of varying the number of diffusion gradient directions (NDGDs) on diffusion tensor fiber tracking (FT) in human brain white matter using tract characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twelve normal volunteers underwent diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scanning with NDGDs of 6, 11, 15, 21, and 31 orientations. Three fiber tract groups, including the splenium of the corpus callosum (CC), the entire CC, and the full brain tract, were reconstructed by deterministic DTI-FT. Tract architecture was first qualitatively evaluated by visual observation. Six quantitative tract characteristics, including the number of fibers (NF), average length (AL), fractional anisotropy (FA), relative anisotropy (RA), mean diffusivity (MD), and volume ratio (VR) were measured for the splenium of the CC at the tract branch level, for the entire CC at tract level, and for the full brain tract at the whole brain level. Visual results and those of NF, AL, FA, RA, MD, and VR were compared among the five different NDGDs. RESULTS: The DTI-FT with NDGD of 11, 15, 21, and 31 orientations gave better tracking results compared with NDGD of 6 after the visual evaluation. NF, FA, RA, MD, and VR values with NDGD of six were significantly greater (smallest p = 0.001 to largest p = 0.042) than those with four other NDGDs (11, 15, 21, or 31 orientations), whereas AL measured with NDGD of six was significantly smaller (smallest p = 0.001 to largest p = 0.041) than with four other NDGDs (11, 15, 21, or 31 orientations). No significant differences were observed in the results among the four NDGD groups of 11, 15, 21, and 31 directions (smallest p = 0.059 to largest p = 1.000). CONCLUSION: The main fiber tracts were detected with NDGD of six orientations; however, the use of larger NDGD (> or = 11 orientations) could provide improved tract characteristics at the expense of longer scanning time.

Objective:To establish an analysis method for determining the contents of 7 components including ganoderic acid C2, ganoderic acid B,ganoderic acid G,ganoderic acid A,lucidenic acid A,ganoderma D and ganoderic acid F in ganoderma by QAMS. Methods:An HPLC method was used. The column was WatersX-bridge C18(250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm), the mobile phase was acetonitrile(A)-1% acetic acid(B) (28:72) with gradient elution(0-30 min:A-28% to 38%;30-45 min:A-38% to 55%) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml·min-1,the column temperature was 30℃, and the detection wavelength was 254 nm. Ganoderic acid A was used as the internal reference, the correction factors of ganoderic acid C2, ganoderic acid B, ganoderic acid G, lucidenic acid A,ganoderma D and ganoderic acid F were calculated,and the contents of the 7 components were calculated by an external standard method to verify the feasibility and applicability of QAMS. Results:The relative correction factors of multiple assessments were reproducible,and the relative deviation of the contents of 6 components in 16 batches of Ganoderma lucidum was less than 2% when compared with that of the external standard method. Conclusion:QAMS is accurate and reliable in the quality evaluation of Ganoderma lucidum.

The concept of a community of common health for mankind profoundly expresses China’s important proposition of promoting the health and well-being of people in various countries and jointly maintaining global public health security, which has a distinct formation logic. The idea of a community of common health for mankind is rooted in the "real community" theory of Marxist, reflecting its value orientation in the field of global health, and highlighting the new era’s inherent requirements of "adhering to the people first". It is an organic unity of theoretical logic, value logic, and practical logic. The construction of a community of common health for mankind gathers broad consensus, highlights the distinct theme of world peace and development, responds to international concerns, and provides Chinese proposals and contributes Chinese strength for governing global public health, practicing multilateralism, and promoting the construction of new international relations.

With the process of China’s aging population intensifying， palliative care， as an important guarantee for improving the quality of life of terminally ill patients， is receiving more and more social attention， and the demand is constantly increasing. Palliative care needs versatile professionals， and general education can enhance people’s awareness and understanding of it， enabling more people to understand， accept， and participate in palliative care. With the advancement of knowledge and technology in palliative care， the traditional cramming education models are no longer able to meet the actual needs. Therefore， there is an urgent need to innovate palliative care education strategies. By analyzing the current problems in the general education of palliative care in China， this paper proposed thoughts and suggestions for general and innovative education of palliative care in several aspects， such as establishing general and innovative education systems and evaluation systems of palliative care， diversifying educational contents and methods， strengthening medical staffs training， promoting diversified student groups， and strengthening the popularization of palliative care knowledge among the public.
