There are two critical factors that can reflect the quality of teaching in clinical teaching of neurosurgery.The first is the effectiveness of the teachers' teaching methods,the other is the intensity of the students' learning will.With both factors adapted to each other,the teaching quality will be greatly improved.However,in neurosurgical intensive care(NIC) practices,due to the particularity of the NIC,these two factors will lead to a confliction,and result in a negative effect of clinical teaching.This article is based on practical experiences of the author in clinical teaching.In view of this contradiction,brief analysis should be made both for clinical teachers and medical students,and a corresponding solution should be proposed in order to raise the standards of clinical teaching.

Daily dietary intakes of nitrate, nitrite and vitamin C were investigated in Chanle county, Fujian province, where gastric cancer was very common, with a marked geographic variation in mortality. The average daily intake of nitrate of residents in Zhanggang village (high risk area) was 132.75 mg, which was significantly higher than that (84.65 mg) in Shouzhan village (moderate risk area), but similar to that (113.12 mg) in Meihua village (low risk area). However, nitrite intake in Zhanggang village was greatly higher than that in Shouzhan and Meihua villages (3.36 mg vs 0.21 and 0.37 mg, respectively). The average daily intake of vitamin C in Shouzhan village was 56.37 mg, significantly lower than that in Zhanggang village (123.09 mg) and in Meihua village (105.90 mg). The molar ratio of vitamin C intake to nitrite in the three villages was 3.22, 3.30 and 4.33, respectively. It was invesely associated with the mortality of gastric cancer. The results suggested that nitrate and nitrite might be etiological factors of gastric cancer in the county.

In this study,we analyzed the data of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and host animals monitoring in Zhangzhou City,Fujian Province,China,2006-2015,in order to find out the epidemic situation and risk factors,and provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control strategy.A total of 171 HFRS cases,including 1 death,were reported in Zhangzhou in this decade.The incidence rate of 0.352/105 showed an upward trend (xtrend2 =58.60,P＜0.01).And 70 villages and towns in 11 counties have affected,accounting for 56.00％ of the counties in Zhangzhou City.The cases were mainly reported in some towns of Huaan,Nanjing and Zhaoan countries.The cases mainly occurred in countryside,which reported 142 cases.The cases in farmers accounted for the highest proportion (79.58 ％),and pig farming staff accounting for 23.01％ in farmer cases.Most cases were reported in municipal hospitals (86.55 ％).The common clinical manifestations of those cases were fever,nausea,vomiting,backache,headache,pain,oliguria or anuria,eyelid edema and so on,with 72.67％ of thrombocytopenia and of 83.09 ％ proteinuria positive.Compared with the proportion (80.49 ％) of mice in patients' house from 2006 to 2010,that (45.83％) from 2011 to 2015 decreased obviously;however,the proportion of mice or mice droppings in workplaces were rising from 60.98％ to 73.33％.Mean rodent density was 6.40％ and total infection rate in rats was 7.42％.The main kind of rats with virus infection was Rattus norvegicus,carrying Seoul virus Ⅱ.Results of this study indicate that Zhangzhou is one of the foci of HFRS rodent,and the epidemic is rising in recent years,the overall in the highly distributed,while some counties showed a rising trend year by year.Thus,monitoring and control efforts in prone areas should be increased,and to carry out clinics training of HFRS in primary health care institutions.

The clinical data of 15 patients with duodenal trauma who were admitted to Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2012 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 patients with blunt injury and 2 with penetrating injury. The surgical procedure was selected by patient′s condition and extent of injury combined with the clinical symptoms, imaging examination and the Organ Injury Scale grading system of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST-OIS). All patients were followed up through outpatient examination and telephone interview till February 2020. Ten patients were diagnosed as duodenal trauma by CT scan before operation, and 5 patients were diagnosed during the operation. According to the AAST-OIS, 1 patient was with grade Ⅰ injury, 6 in grade Ⅱ, 5 in grade Ⅲ, 2 in grade Ⅳ and 1 in grade Ⅴ. All 15 patients received surgical treatment, including 1 with simple suture, 5 with break suture and duodenal diverticularization, 6 with break suture and biliary drainage (3 with hepatocystic duct drainage and 3 with cholecystostomy), 2 with pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative complications occurred in 3 patients with Clavien system classification of Ⅲ b, Ⅱ and Ⅱ. One patient with duodenal stricture and severe abdominal infection was cured after gastrectomy and Billroth Ⅱ gastrojejunostomy 6 months after operation, and 2 cases with duodenal fistula were cured after conservative treatment. One patient who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy was followed up for 6 months in the outpatient department, and 14 patients were followed up for 6-24 months. For emergency abdominal trauma patients with suspected duodenal injury, surgical exploration should be carried out actively. The site and range of intestinal wall injury should be considered in order to select a reasonable operation. Effective duodenal decompression and complete peritoneal drainage are important for the success of surgery. Early postoperative enteral nutrition support is one of the key measures for successful wound healing.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) of the bilateral cerebellum in treating post-stroke dysphagia.Methods:Forty patients with dysphagia after a cerebral infarction were randomly divided into a control group and an iTBS group, with 20 cases in each group. In addition to routine swallowing rehabilitation training and nutritional guidance, the iTBS group underwent daily bilateral cerebellar iTBS 6 times a week for 3 weeks, while the control group was given sham stimulation. Before and after the treatment, both groups were evaluated by using the water-swallowing test and the standardized swallowing assessment (SSA), and the latency and amplitude of the mylohyoid muscle′s motor evoked potential (MEP) were also recorded. The SSA scores and MEP amplitudes of the mylohyoid muscle after treatment were tested for any correlation.Results:The treatment improved the water-swallowing test results in both groups, with that of the iTBS group significantly better than that of the control group. The clinical efficacy in the iTBS group was 95%, significantly higher than the control group′s 80%. The SSA scores decreased significantly in both groups after the treatment, with the iTBS group′s average score then significantly lower than that of the control group. The average latency and amplitude of the mylohyoid muscle′s MEP was also significantly better in the iTBS group after the treatment. In the control group only the average amplitude was significantly greater than before the treatment. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the SSA scores and the MEP amplitudes of the mylohyoid muscle after treatment were uncorrelated in both groups.Conclusions:Bilateral intermittent theta burst stimulation can effectively improve the swallowing of patients with post-stroke dysphagia.

Objective:To seek any differential effect of combining repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with a modified version of constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) on the walking ability of stroke survivors.Methods:Seventy-five stroke survivors were randomly divided into a sham rTMS group, an rTMS group and a combined group, each of 25. In addition to 40 minutes of routine rehabilitation daily, including balance training, transfer training, muscle strength training, and proprioceptive training five times a week for 4 weeks, the sham rTMS group and rTMS group received sham or genuine rTMS. The combined group received 20 minutes of rTMS followed by mCIMT training 30 minutes later. The treatment was performed once a day, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Before and after the treatment, all groups were evaluated using the Fugl-Meyer lower extremity assessment, the Berg balance scale, a 10-metre walk test and the modified Barthel index.Results:Significant improvement was observed in the average scores of all three groups in all of the assessments. The combined group′s averages were, however, significantly better than those of the other two groups.Conclusion:Supplementing mCIMT with rTMS can better improve the walking and other abilities in the activities of daily living of stroke survivors.
