objective To explore a new method of repairing skin defects complicated with fracture and tendon rupture at the middle and distal sections of the second to fifth fingers. Methods The reversed dorsal metacarpal island flap was designed to be pedicled on the digital proper artery-common digital artery-fingerweb artery-dorsal metacarpal artery-cutaneous branch of dorsal metacarpal artery.In repairing digital palmar skin defects,after the flap was dissected,the proximal incision was extended along the direction of dorsal metacarpal nerve to harvest an enough length of the nerve so that the dorsal metacrppal nerve can be anastomosed with the digital proper nerve to restore the sensation of finger pulp.From the June 2003 to March 2009,the flap was used to repair 26 fingers in 24 patients with middle and distal digital skin defects complicated with fracture and tendon rupture.They were 17 men and 7 women,aged from 16 to 63 years (average,37 years).There were 15 cases of palmar skin defect and 9 cases of dorsal skin defect.In the 2 cases of combined tendon defects,a section of the extensor tendon of index(or little) finger was dissected together with the flap to repair the tendon rupture. Results The areas of the flap ranged from 3.1 cm ×1.6 cm to 6.0 cm × 4.0 cm.The flaps survived in all 24 cases without any vascular crisis.Twenty-two patients obtained an average follow-up of 14 months (from 4 to 32 months) but 2 were lost to the follow-up.The flaps were fine in texture,colour and appearance.The finger pulps appeared full and recovered sensations of pain and temperature.The average two-point discrimination was 7.5 mm (from 5 to 9 mm).Sensory function evaluation revealed an outcome of S3 + ~ S4.Tendon adhesion occurred in 4 cases which recovered digital function following secondary lysis 3 to 6 months postoperation. Conclusion Application of the reversed dorsal metacarpal island flap pedicled on the digital proper artery is a good way to repair skin defects complicated with fracture and tendon rupture at the middle and distal sections of the second to fifth fingers.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of thermal moxibustion combined with Duhuo Jisheng Decoction in the treatment of liver and kidney deficiency syndrome of knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods:From January 2020 to January 2021, 124 KOA patients with liver and kidney deficiency syndrome, who met the inclusion criteria, were divided into 2 groups according to the random number table method, with 62 in each group. The control group was treated with Duhuo Jisheng Decoction, and the observation group was treated with thermal moxibustion on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 28 days. TCM symptom scores were performed before and after treatment, the Osteoarthritis Index of Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) was used to evaluate joint function. ELISA was used to detect serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α levels, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 91.9% (57/62) in the observation group and 77.4% (48/62) in the control group, and there was significant difference between two groups ( χ2=5.04, P=0.025). After treatment, the TCM symptom score and WOMAC score of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( t values were 11.33 and 12.23, respectively, all Ps<0.01). After treatment, the serum levels of IGF-1 [(15.63±2.03) ng/L vs. (12.78±1.57) ng/L, t=8.75], FGF-2 [(30.26±5.37) ng/L vs. (26.31±1.94) ng/L, t=5.45] and TGF-β1[(30.39±6.71)μg/L vs. (24.31±5.12) μg/L, t=5.67] in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01), while the levels of IL-1β [(12.50±3.36) ng/L vs. (16.09±4.90) ng/L, t=4.76], IL-6 [(10.59±3.28) ng/L vs. (21.75 ± 4.09) ng/L, t=16.76] and TNF-α [(4.04±1.92) ng/L vs. (6.48±1.43) ng/L, t=8.03] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). There was no adverse events from both groups during treatment. Conclusion:Thermal moxibustion combined with Duhuo Jisheng Ddecoction can alleviate the joint pain of KOA patients with liver and kidney deficiency syndrome, promote cartilage repair and improve the clinical curative effect.

OBJECTIVE To interpret Teacher Training Syllabus for Clinical Pharmacist Training Program (2023 edition) (hereinafter referred as to the “new syllabus”), and to provide reference and guidance for promoting the implementation of the new syllabus and realizing the quality-improving goal of the reform of the clinical pharmacist teacher training program initiated by China Hospital Association. METHODS From the perspective of the management and based on the position of the designer, the new syllabus was interpreted from four aspects: the background of its compilation and release, the process of its compilation and its characteristics, the key improvements of the program and the points for attention about its subsequent implementation. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The development and release of the new syllabus provide a “construction blueprint” for the reform of the clinical pharmacist teacher training program of the China Hospital Association. The whole process of compiling the new syllabus is characterized by four basic features: theory-led, goal-oriented, research-based, and synergistic. Compared with the previous syllabus, in addition to the adjustment of the text structure,the new syllabus presents more complete and clearer competence requirements for clinical teaching competence in terms of training objectives; in terms of training content, it further structures the group of task items, pays attention to the 育。E-mail:zhenjiancun@163.com sequential planning and time arrangement of items, and puts forward both quantitative and qualitative refinement requirements for each specific training task;in terms of training methods, it emphasizes the interaction of lecturing, demonstrating and guiding, and the progression of observation, operation and reflection, with the intention of guiding teacher trainees to “learn how to teach by teaching”. In the subsequent implementation of the new syllabus, it is necessary for the teacher training bases to attach great importance to the guarantee of training conditions and process quality management, and to organize the teacher training team to do a good job in the two training programs of “clinical pharmacist training” and “clinical pharmacist teacher training”. Based on further improving the connection between the two training programs, the teacher training team should continue to explore the scientific model of clinical pharmacist teacher training oriented by clinical teaching competence.
