The catalogues of courses in 15 medical schools were selected randomly and their quantity and quality were compared statistically among different levels on clinical medicine programs.The results of the analysis showed the lower level of clinical medicine program should be closed down due to several reasons that were lower training objects,more waste in educational resources,more social inequity and so forth.

The article introduces the current situation of higher medical education of Taiwan Province and makes some brief comments and analyses by analyzing its advantages and disadvantages as well as the effectuation condition of higher education reforming measures.

The research documents about educational system of medical schools were reviewed,and after deep analysis,some inadequacy was found by means of how to learn from advanced skills and how to improve the benefit of health service.This paper also put forward the chain of thought about reform of educational system of medical schools.

Objective To explore the content of the goals set by medical freshmen. Meth-ods 189 freshmen who major in clinic medicine were asked to answer the goals they set in the period of five years colleges’life,another 100 freshmen were selected to categorize the goals with high frequencies and then factor analysis were employed.Results 46 goals with high fre-quency can be classified into 11 factors. Conclusion Although the content of the goals set by the medical freshmen included some unreasonable points,it is basically in line with that of our present goals of cultivating medical students.

The teaching model in classroom is a popular process of language communication between teachers and students.There is a paradox phenomenon in asking and interlocution due to tergiversalion ofthe original intention ofthe teaching.So,it is an important thing that the teaching model should be transferred from asking to interlocution to establish equal right,enhance understanding and decrease undesirable manners.

Objective: To develop a quality of life instrument for hepatitis B patients(QOL-HBV) and examine it's reliability and validity.Methods:The item analysis, construct validity, content validity, criteria validity, reliability and discriminate were assessed by a survey on 134 HBV patients with QOL-HBV.Results:Item analysis showed that QOL-HBV had satisfactory item discrimination. Eight common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis and they can be reduced to three domains. The ?2/DF was 1.310, GFI was 0.972 and AGFI was 0.967 by the confirmatory factor analysis. The coefficients of Cronbach's ? of the instrument and all domains were above 0.80. In comparison with SF-36, there was good correlation among corresponding domains.Conclusion:QOL-HBV is a good scale in testing the quality of life, which has good reliability and validity.

The current complex medical environment has a negative influence on doctors and also hinders the further development of healthcare industry in China.By analyzing the problems of medical social workers in doctors' social support system,this paper proposes the roles medical social workers should play in constructing a new social support system of doctors.

Objective To construct the teaching model of medical statistics in universities of TCM through the questionnaire of knowledge,attitude and practice structure.Methods Medical statistics KAP questionnaire survey was conducted among postgraduates using proportional stratified sampling according to the grade.It describes the present situation and calculates the knowledge loss coefficient,knowledge demand index and behavioral application intensity of medical statistics.The Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences among different grades.Results 109 questionnaires were withdrawn.The recovery was 83.84％.45 cases (41.3％) were first year postgraduate,33 cases (30.3％) were 2nd year postgraduate,and 31 cases (28.4％) were 3rd year postgraduate.At the knowledge level,the knowledge loss coefficient of the second year postgraduates was 0.635,and there was no statistical difference (P=-0.651) vs the first year postgraduate (0.638).At the attitude level,Knowledge demand index had no statistical significance difference (P=0.213)between postgraduates in grade two (96.87％) and grade three (75.00％).Most medical postgraduates held positive attitudes toward medical statistics,hoping to strengthen the training of their application ability such as medical statistics in design and research thinking (29.18％),the statistical methods selection and the interpretation of the results (31.53％) and the statistical software operation (36.07％).At the practice level,the percentage of application intensity with statistical methods of third-year postgraduates (100.00％) was higher than the second-year postgraduates (37.50％),and the second-year postgraduates higher than the first-year postgraduates (20.45％).And with the growth of year,the percentage of application intensity was gradually increasing (P=O.O03).Among them,published scientific papers accounted for 16.5％,and 58.6％ paper grade concentrated in the core journals.Conclusion Application development should be enhanced by modularization teaching with practical issues.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the diagnosis and treatment of incidental prostate cancer (IPC) following transurethral plasma kinetic vaporization prostatectomy (TUPVP).

METHODSPathological examinations were conducted on 134 benign prostate hyperplasia specimens by means of series microtomy after TUPVP.

RESULTSFifteen cases of IPC were detected from the total number of TUPVP specimens, with a pick-up rate of 11.2%. Dual testicle resection with endocrine therapy was performed in 4 cases of Stage A2 patients, and endocrine therapy alone was conducted in 9 cases of Stage A1 patients. Thirteen patients were followed up for 7 to 15 months and all lived without cancer (PSA 0.15 - 4.0 microg/L).

CONCLUSIONTUPVP and series microtomy may be helpful to the diagnosis of IPC. Patients at Stage A1 need mere endocrine therapy, while those at Stage A2 warrant dual testicle resection.
