Objective:To understand the current situation of physicians′ competency in China and statistically analyze its influencing factors, hence providing referential evidences for promoting their competency.Methods:The evaluation scale for Chinese physicians′ competency was developed by referring to sophisticated overseas evaluation frameworks. Based on the electronic platform of the medical alliance, stratified sampling was conducted at 39 hospitals in 13 provinces, from which 2 156 physicians were surveyed, and statistical analysis was made on the current situation and influential factor of their competency in 6 dimensions(medical knowledge, diagnosis and treatment, scientific research and teaching, interpersonal communication, spirit of professionalism, population health)Results:The score range in multiple dimensions of physicians′ competency was between 2.85 and 3.89(5 in total), among which spirit of professionalism dimension scores the highest, and teaching and research dimension scores the lowest. Logistic regression analysis shows that their competency level in 6 dimensions is correlated to a range of factors, including gender, degree, title, supervisor qualifications, standardized training program of specialist physicians, and affiliation or not to teaching hospitals( P<0.05). Conclusions:Their overall competency is expected to be elevated. To name a few, they are lack of teaching and research abilities, and need to conduct clinical-oriented scientific research; they are expected to enrich knowledge structure, and need to embrace a wider concept of health; they need to improve their non-technical service abilities, and should further emphasize their humanistic quality; physicians′ practice competency depends upon their extent of medical education, and ensuring the quality of standardized training becomes the key measure.

Background and purpose:Histological grade of DCIS is an important factor in the prognosis, high nuclear grade have higher inifltration trend and recurrence rate. This study aimed to evaluate the dynamic and morphological MRI charactristics of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast, then analyze its relations with nuclear grade. Methods:Of the 94 patients, 97 lesions were proved DCIS by pathology. The morphology, maximum size, time-intensity curve of lesion were recorded or measured. Statistic was performed to identify MR imaging features that optimally discriminated HNG from non-HNG DCIS. Results:There were 49 non mass-like enhancement lesions, and 48 masses enhancement lesions. Among 49 non mass-like lesions, 29 were segmental enhancement (59.18%). Dynamic enhanced performance:50 exhibited plateau curves and 27 were washout curves. BI-RADS categories:22 BI-RADS 4A, 19 BI-RADS 4B, 29 BI-RADS 4C, and 27 BI-RADS 5. HNG lesions exhibited larger mean maximum lesion size (non-mass-like enhancement: P=0.01; mass: P=0.03), time- intensity curve was variable to approach signiifcance (P=0.01), and BI-RADS can help to discriminate the nuclear grade (P=0.02). There were no differences in lesion morphology (P>0.05). Conclusion:The preliminary ifndings suggest that DCE MR imaging features may aid in identifying patients with high risk DCIS.
