Objective After acute craniocerebral trauma , to a certain extent , arterial blood lactate and lactate clearance rate reflect the illness severity .We aimed to investigate the prognosis value of arterial blood lactate and lactate clearance rate in patients with craniocerebral trauma . Methods 94 cases with craniocerebral trauma treated in the Department of Emergency of Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Regionfrom February 2015 to November 2015 were retrospecively analysed .GCS ( Glasgow Coma Scale ) score, arterial blood lactate , blood pressureand heart rate were measured once patients admitted to hospital and 6 hours later ,arterial blood lactate was measured again to calculated the arterial blood lac-tate clearance rate .Based on the GCS score , we divided the patients into mild group (13-15), medium group (9-12) and severe group (3-8).We also divided the patients into death group and survival group according toprognosis .We compared arterial blood lactate and lactate clearance rate betweeeneach group respectively . Results There were significant differences in arterial blood lactate (F=19.99,P<0.01) and 6h lactate clearance rate(F=6.21,P<0.01)be-tween lighter group , medium group and severe group .The initial arterial blood lactate of death group was significantly higher than sur-vival group[(4.20 ±1.36)mmol/L vs (1.58 ±0.93)mmol/L], the difference was statistically significant (t=-9.78,P<0.01). The 6 h lactate clearance rate of death group was significantly lower than survival group [(31.73 ±12.84)%vs (46.25 ±12.01)%], the difference was statistically significant (t=4.55,P<0.01). Conclusion Arterial blood lactate and 6 h lactate clearance rate can evaluate the severity and prognosisof illnessin patients with craniocerebral traumaand have important application value in clinical work .

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Guizhi Mahuang Geban Decoction combined with conventional western medicine in the treatment of post infections cough (PIC), and to explore the mechanism.Methods:A total of 100 PIC patients in our hospital from January 2020 to July 2021 who met the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups according to the random number table method, with 50 in each group. The control group was treated with conventional western medicine, and the study group was treated with Guizhi Mahuang Geban Decoction and the treatment of the control group. Both groups were treated for 10 days. TCM symptom scores were performed before and after treatment. The levels of neurokinin A (NKA), substance P (SP), neurokinin B (NKB) and calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) were detected by ELISA. Adverse events were recorded and clinical effects were evaluated.Results:The total clinical effective rate was 90.0% (45/50) in the study group and 68.0% (34/50) in the control group, and there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=7.29, P=0.007). The scores of cough, expectoration, pharyngeal itch and total score in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 8.04, 6.30, 9.03, 9.71, all Ps<0.01). After treatment, NKA [(86.08±18.21) ng/L vs. (137.68±28.29) ng/L, t=10.85], SP [(54.23±11.28) ng/L vs. (71.75±15.34) ng/L, t=6.51], NKB [(96.15±20.19) ng/L vs. (149.84±30.22) ng/L, t=10.45], CGRP [(62.93±18.35) ng/L vs. (89.59±23.25) ng/L, t=6.37] levels in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). The incidence of adverse events was 8.0% (4/50) in the control group and 10.0% (5/50) in the study group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.13, P=0.727). Conclusions:Compared with western medicine alone, Guizhi Mahuang Geban Decoction combined with western medicine can rapidly improve patients' symptoms, improve curative effect and have better safety for PIC. Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of NKA, SP, NKB and CGRP levels.

Objective To carry out innovative practice as well as questionnaire survey and conduct promotion analysis of clinical molecular biology testing based on problem-based learning (PBL). Methods 137 Students of medical laboratory technology discipline were chosen as subjects to conduct the innovative practice of PBL method. The teaching results were shared and promoted by video online through WeChat. Micro-questionnaire was conducted in 335 students, and the results of the survey were statistically analyzed. Result The improved PBL teaching based on speech contest can boost students to integrate into classroom teaching actively in which they had a better understanding of the knowledge so that the expected teaching quality of clinical molecular biology testing was achieved effectively. Questionnaire showed that the impact of PBL teaching method on students was not extensive currently, indicating that there was still more space to promoting such teaching methods. Although traditional teaching methods still held a place in students' minds (43.9%, 147 cases), the innovative teaching of PBL, which is novel, interesting and colorful, is more in line with the expectations of medical laboratory students in the new era and has the highest acceptance (49.6%, 166 cases). Conclusion The innovative practice of PBL teaching based on speech contest can achieve the purpose of strengthening students' knowledge acquisition and flexibility in the practical use of knowledge, which is worthy of promoting. Teachers could gradually integrate the new PBL teaching model into the tradi-tional teaching methods in the future, making students study efficiently in a relaxed and active atmosphere
