Though the study on the simulated testing to the doctors both in China and Japan,we can find out the similarities and differences in these two educational systems,and further analyze the related factors,thus providing the valuable reference to improve the system of medical examination,reform the model of medical education and foster qualified practitioners.

Objective To investigate the correlation of HIF-1α and hypoxia in keloids fibroblasts, and to investigate the mechanism that hypoxia promotes abnormal scarring by HIF-1α pathway. Methods Keloid fibroblasts cultured in vitro were placed in an incubator with different O2 concentrations. After 24 h, the keloid fibroblasts were collected for further study. Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of HIF-1α in the keloid fibroblasts. Results Relative amounts of HIF-1α in keloid fibroblasts cultured under O2 concentrations at 20 %, 10 %, 5 % and 1 % were 0. 007 ±0. 006, 0. 133 ±0. 006, 0. 537±0. 015 and 0. 903±0. 021, respectively. It indicated that hypoxia could increase the expression of HIF-lα in keloid fibroblasts. Conclusions Hypoxia can induce the expression of HIF-1α in fibroblasts of keloids. Moreover, there still is a positive relation between hypoxia and the expression of HIF-1α. Therefore, a close relationship exists between abnormal scarring and HIF-1α pathway by hypoxia.

In order to study the effect of chronic noise exposure on auditory center, seven guinea pigs were .exposured to 105 dB A noise 8h daily for 45 d. Then the animals were killed by decapitation. The superior olive and inferior colliculus were taken immediately to make the samples of electron microscope. The mitochondria swelling, membrane rupture, cristae breaking, ballooning degeneration were found. The rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum was swollen and expanded. The lysosome and secondary lysosome were increased. The cell interstitial edema and synaptic besicle decrease were observed. The nuclear chromatid was decreased and nucleolus was kept to the side. The laminae of neurilemma of nerve fibers were dissociated, swollen and broken. The results indicate that the ultrastructure, neural cells and fibers in the auditory center are damaged by chronic noise exposure and most of these damages are irreversible.

This project studied the historical and the present situation about the personnel training model in medical education and its structure. It reestablished the objectives of the medical education and the standards of the training, modified the training program, and the curriculum system, and set up the new teaching plan and syllabus. Through three years of research and implementation, the training model of widening the basic science, breaking into three stages, integrating the courses, optimizing three phases, activating teaching methods and total adaptability had been constructed.And the project had been studied, applied and spread cooperatively with 16 Chinese medical schools.

To adapt to the demand for highly talented medical personnel in the new century, China Medical University has proposed a teaching reformation policy that aims to reinforce the combination of training goals with all subjects; to carry out bilateral infiltration and three optimizations; to emphasize the development of knowledge, ability and quality; to enliven teaching methods; and to make adaptations in all areas. In preparation, we have studied the reform experiences and current practices of more than 200 medical colleges and universities around the world in light of current conditions in China and China Medical University. We have also renewed our recognition of the training goals of specialties as a firm basis for the quality education of skilled doctors. The University has reformed its curriculum system and teaching plans for clinical medical specialties in many ways and has adjusted its teaching contents to form a new model for training talented medical personnel for the next century.

Objective:To establish silicone cartilage models of donor-sites for the microtia patients by using digital technology, and to explore the application of surgical simulation in auricular reconstruction.Methods:From June 2018 to October 2019, 19 congenital microtia patients underwent thoracic CT scans and following three-dimensional costal cartilage imaging with Mimics software at the Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University. Among these patients, 16 were males and 3 were females. The mean age of patients was 16 years (range 8 to 35 years). Silicon cartilage models were produced by 3D printing and used for surgical planning and preoperative simulation in ear framework fabrication. Cartilaginous framework was sculptured according to the simulation during operation. Patients were followed up for a minimum of six months to evaluate the size, outline, height and auriculocephalic angle of the reconstructed ear. The satisfactory outcomes of the patients were scored according to a 5-point Likert scale.Results:All the patients received the surgical simulation and sculpture training with silicone cartilage models before operation. Auricular reconstruction was completed successfully according to the simulation. The duration of sculpture was shortened to 1-1.5 hours. There were no serious complications, such as hematoma, inflammation, skin necrosis and framework exposure. The contour of reconstructed ear was natural and clear over a 6 months follow-up, and all the patients were satisfied with their surgical outcomes.Conclusions:With the application of digital technology and silicone cartilage models by 3D printing to the surgical planning and training in microtia patients, patient-specific framework is fabricated with precisely assembling, which not only shortens the operation time, but also provides the unexperienced surgeons with a safe and effective training of ear framework fabrication.
