Objective To assess the patient enablement level in a general hospital and its related factors,to investigate the relationship of patient enablement with patient's overall satisfaction and doctor's empathy levels.Methods Patients attending the Family Medicine Clinic of HKU-Shenzhen Hospital in September 2014 and met the inclusion criteria were asked to complete a questionnaire survey which included general characteristics,overall satisfaction;the Patient Enablement Instrument (PEI) and the Consultation and Relational Empathy Measure Scale (CARE) after the consultation.Results Total 2 326 questionnaires were issued and 1 818 were retrieved,of which 1 478 were qualified questionnaires.The qualified rate of PEI was 81.3％ and the qualified rate of patient overall satisfaction was 96.28％.The positive rate of patient enablement was 97.70％ (1 444/1 478),and the mean score of PEI was 8.21 ±3.33.Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the PEI scores were not influenced by gender and education level of the patients,gender of the consulting doctors and initial/follow up consultation.The PEI scores were influenced by the age of the patients,the types of clinic (general practice/chronic practice clinic) and the reasons for consulting (P ＜ 0.05).There were correlations between PEI score and overall satisfaction of patients (r =0.383,P ＜ 0.001),patient's recommendation of the clinic (r =0.595,P ＜ 0.001) and CARE scores (r =0.546,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusion The results show that the PEI scores of patients visiting family medicine clinic of this hospital are higher than those reported in other studies.The PEI score may be influenced by the age of the patients,the types of clinic and the reasons for consulting.Positive correlations between patient enablement and the overall satisfaction,patient's recommendation and doctor empathy were observed.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Jatropha see soma japonicum so as to screen the optimum process and formulations. Methods The cercaria directly contacting tests with Jatro-pha seed oils extracted by 6 different extraction processes were carried out,and the mouse immediate contacting cercaria infection trials with different formulations of Jatropha seed oil and various additives were performed. Results With 95%ethanol,the ratio of material to liquid being 1∶8,and 2 h extraction,the oil extraction rate was 30.7%. The cercaria directly contacting tests showed that 6 kinds of Jatropha seed oil killed all cercaria within 30 min. In the mouse immediate contacting cercaria infection trials,the worm declined rate of Jatropha seed oil liquid was 70.97%,and the worm declined rate of the sample added with benzyl benzoate was 58.87%,and the worm declined rate of the sample added with laurocapram was 77.42%. The worm declined rate of the sam-ples added with benzyl benzoate,dibutyl phthalate and laurocapram was 100%. Conclusion The process with 95%ethanol,the ratio of material to liquid being 1∶8,and 2 h extraction is the optimum,and the Jatropha seed oil has a good killing schistosome cercaria effect.

Objective To assess the clinical value of ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) guided biopsy for diagnosis of tuberculous peritonitis.Methods Clinical data of 25 tuberculous peritonitis patients who underwent SWE guided biopsy (SWE guided group) and other 25 tuberculous peritonitis patients who underwent conventional ultrasound guided biopsy (conventional ultrasound guided group) were retrospectively analyzed.The successful rate of biopsy and the complication occurrence were compared between the two groups.Results The success rate of SWE guided group was 100％(25/25),and the rate of complication occurrence was 8.00％ (2/25).The successful rate and complication occurrence in conventional ultrasound guided group was 84.00％ (21/25) and 32.00％ (8/25),respectively.There were statistical differences of success rate of biopsy (x2=4.348,P=0.037) and the complication occurrence (x2=4.500,P=0.034) between the two groups.Conclusion Compared with conventional ultrasound,SWE guidance can improve the success rate and reduce the complication occurrence of biopsy.
