The paper describes the significance of clinical pathological congresses in clinical work. It argues that at present there is the tendency of laying stress on modern advanced diagnostic means at the expense of basic physical diagnostic means and traditional therapies, and traditional conduction of clinical pathological congresses for the purpose of summarizing medical experience and promoting medical advancement has even become a rarity, which is very harmful to the cultivation of qualified clinical doctors. The paper gives an account of how the authors' hospital encouraged performance of autopsies and persisted in holding clinical pathological congresses. Its experience is that clinical pathological congresses have many functions in clinical work, including solving knotty problems like multidisciplinary and multisystematic pathological changes by drawing upon all useful opinions; exchanging information, which is beneficial to doctors learning from one another and making common progress; cultivating personnel via tempering young doctors and updating senior doctors'knowledge; and strengthening the hospital's cohesive force.

Objective To investigate the correlation between levels of glycohemoglobin and cognitive function in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods Cognition function of 40 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes was assessed by Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS), Trail Marking Test and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) and was compared with 40 healthy controls matched for age, gender, education level and profession. Meanwhile, the correlation between cognition function and levels of glycohemoglobin was analyzed by regression analysis.Results The scores of Wechsler Memory Scale in the patients were lower than that in normal controls (P<0.01,P<0.05). The patients needed much more time to complete the Trail Marking Test (P<0.001). The scores of Wisconsin Card Sorting Test were significantly different between two groups (P<0.01,P<0.05). The regression analysis showed that there was an obvious correlation between serum level of glycohemoglobin and cognition functions in patients with type 2 diabetes(r=-0.38, -0.43, -0.48, -0.46, 0.41, P<0.05). Conclusion Cognition function decreases and significantly correlates with the level of glycohemoglobin in the elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.

BACKGROUND:Fentanyl transdermal system has analgesic effect similar to oral sustained-release morphine and has been widely used in advanced cancer pain management in several years. However, recent literatures about some serious adverse events associated with fentanyl transdermal system have been published, and the long-term safety of fentanyl transdermal system treatment is stil chalenged. OBJECTIVE:To observe the long-term clinical efficacy and safety of fentanyl transdermal system for pain management in patients with advanced cancer. METHODS:A total of 309 patients with advanced cancer pain were enroled, including 166 females and 143 males. The age ranged from 26-72 years old. Patients received oral sustained-release morphine for 2 weeks, and then were subject to fentanyl transdermal system for pain management at the 3rd week until the 12th week. A prospective study with self-contrast method was conducted to compare the analgesic effects of these two drugs, as wel as patient's acceptability, adverse events and toxicity in the administration course. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Stable pain relief was harvested throughout the oral administration of both sustained-release morphine and fentanyl transdermal system therapy. During the use of oral sustained-release morphine, adverse reactions appearing in sequence were constipation, nausea, fatigue and anorexia. After converting to fentanyl transdermal system, the symptoms of constipation (χ2=5.22,P=0.02) and nausea (χ2=4.38, P=0.04) significantly reduced, and vomiting was abated but showed no significant difference (χ2=2.7,P=0.10). 2.3% of patients had skin reactions to the patches, and regressed after replacing the patch area. Skin reactions were aleviated at 2-10 weeks after oral administration of fentanyl transdermal system. Some uncommon adverse events including headache, diarrhea, dyspnoea, excessive sweating or other symptoms often occurred at the time of the initial dosage increase. Preference or strong preference for fentanyl transdermal system in comparison to previous oral sustained-release morphine was reported by 91% of patients. These results demonstrate that fentanyl transdermal patches can provide stable pain relief for advanced cancer patients with good acceptability, and mitigate the incidence of adverse events due to oral drugs.
