Objective To establish a method for simultaneously measuring L-citrulline and L-arginine concentration in plasma using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC)with ultraviolet detection,and the novel method is applied to the patients with digestive system tumor.Methods Plasma samples were deproteinized by trichloroacetic acid with heating method.Phenylisothiocyanate (PITC)was used as derivatization reagent and a gradient elution was adopted. The feasibility verification of method was carried out by detecting plasma L-citrulline and L-arginine acid concentration in 21 cases of advanced digestive tract malignant tumor patients,21 cases of non malignant tumor patients and 39 cases of healthy people.Results The linearity for L-citrulline and L-arginine ranged from 0 to at least 1 000 μmol/L.r=0.999 95 for both. The lower limits of quantification for L-citrulline and L-arginine were 0.240 μmol/L and 0.448 μmol/L respectively.The in-traday and interday coefficients of variation (CVs)were less than 3.4% and 7.2%,respectively.The average recovery rate was from 95.2% to 104.1%.The ratio of plasma L-citrulline/L-arginine in patients with digestive cancar was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group,t-test,P =0.009.The sensitivity and specificity of plasma L-citrulline/L-argi-nine ratio in the malignant tumor of digestive system were 81% and 71.4% respectively.Conclusion This method can pro-vide a reliable and efficient method for the clinical determination of the L-citrulline and L-arginine concentration in plasma. The ratio of plasma citrulline/arginine increased obviously in patients with digestive cancer,suggesting that this ratio is a more sensitive index than single concentration of L-citrulline or L-arginine when evaluating patients with digestive tumor.

To increase the rescue competency of residents, also the critical thinking, team dynamics, and the capability to handle with emergencies, Shanghai East Hospital developed a rescue course integrated with 24 standardized simulation cases learning and medical simulation education for residents training pro-gram. The instructor candidates should complete the simulation training and pass the instructor certification. Every course was monitored by the course director to ensure the teaching quality. After two and a half years of practice, it is found that the teaching of case teaching and simulation teaching is better than traditional teaching, and it plays an important role in the security of medical security.

The standardized residency training is an important stage in the training of physicians. Shanghai East Hospital has explored the system of the whole-process tutor management in the residency training. To explore the specific methods of carrying out the whole-process tutor training for residents in the whole hospital, gradually the whole-process tutor system is built with qualification certification, mutual selection of teachers and students, tutor empowerment, plan implementation and assessment and evaluation. Meanwhile, a supporting informatization platform is being developed to provide necessary tool support for the implementation and promotion of the whole-process tutor of residency training. And information tools are used to carry out implementation management, process optimization and quality monitoring, so as to form a closed management loop.

The contents recorded in the rotation registration manual is not only the quantitative indicators for evaluating the quality of residency training, but also the important basis for training assessment and issuance of training certificates. In order to solve the problems of data authenticity, information delay, and repeated entry in the rotation registration manual for residency training, Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University, launched a project to dock the electronic rotation registration manual with the hospital information system. Through the establishment of the project team, the development of working mechanisms, and the implementation of the project, data analysis was used for process reformation and system optimization, so as to continuously improve management efficiency and medical safety while solving problems and form a set of implementation system with reference significance in practice.
