1.Demands and Countermeasures of TCM Continuing Education of Doctors in Health Clinics in Towns and Townships of Hunan Province
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(5):1-3
Objective To investigate the awareness rate of TCM knowledge, the application, and demand situation of Chinese appropriate techniques in health clinics in towns and townships of Hunan Province;To put forward the countermeasures of TCM continuing education. Methods 50%of the training doctors were adopted randomly from 4 training courses in health clinics in towns and townships in Hunan Province. The student number of each course was 49, 51, 53, 53, respectively. Self-designed questionaires were used to investigate 206 training doctors. Results 168 (81.55%) doctors’ degrees were technical secondary school degree and college degree;186 (90.29%) doctors’ professional titles were physician assistant and physician;The awareness rate of TCM knowledge was 63.83%;Different study backgrounds of doctors had different effects on the rate of TCM knowledge (χ2=42.42, P=0.01). The using rates of TCM appropriate techniques were all lower than 30%. 96.60%of doctors in health clinics in towns and townships hope to learn one or more TCM appropriate techniques to help diagnose and treat disease. Conclusion The degree, professional title, mastery of TCM knowledge, and TCM appropriate techniques were not optimistic. The doctors in health clinics in towns and townships showed strong desire for TCM appropriate techniques. The health department should combine the actual situation of doctors in health clinics in towns and townships and develop targeted TCM continuing education.

Objective To explore the job burnout and its related factors among nurses.Methods 486 clinical nurses from a three grade second level general hospital were investigated by Moreno-Jimenez nursing burnout scale (NBS) and using SPSS17.0 software and ANOVA method to analyse the data.Results NBS results showed the score of job burnout in 486 objects was (164.92 ± 25.60).Significant differences of job burnout levels were showed among ages,marital status,professional titles,working periods,working relationship,work load,income,and housework periods (P < 0.05).Conclusion Job burnout is a general phenomenon in these investigated nurses and its level is above average.Administrators should pay more attention to these related factors which can easily cause job burnout and take positive feasibility assistant strategies.

Objective To assay serum cortisol concentration in type 2 diabetic patients and evaluate the relationship between serum cortisol concentration and insulin resistance. Methods Serum cortisol concentrations were measured at 8 am, 4 pm and during oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) in 60 newly-onset type 2 diabetic patients and 40 healthy subjects using RIA. Results ① Sernm cortisol concentrations were elevated in obese type 2 diabetic patients at 8 am and 4 pm as compared with non-obese patients and normal controls. ② Changes of serum cortisol concentration during OGTT were different between obese type 2 diabetic and non-obese patients: serum cortisol concentrations were decreased after glucose administration in non-obese patients but not in obese patients. ③ In type 2 diabetic patients, serum cortisol concentrations were negatively correlated with insulin sensitivity index (r=-0.34, P<0.01). Conclusion There is some degree of abnormal in cortisol secretion in obese type 2 diabetic patients.

Purpose:To investigate the feasibility of Gemci tabine with Lipiodol Emulsion for treatment of advanced liver cancer and its si de-effects.Methods:31 advanced liver cancer cases were treated with Gemcit abine with Lipiodol Emulsion for arterial embolijation some were treated with ar terial infusion chemotherapy.Early therapeutic effect and side-effects were eva luated after the first initial therapy. Results:In 31 patients ,4 patients were liver metastases from l ung carcinoma,8 patients were liver metastases from pancreatic carcinoma ,7 pati ents were liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma,12 patients were primary ma ssive liver cancer After the first treatment,the symptoms of gastrc pain and app etite were ameliorated,more over,the side-effects (omit,heart toxicity ,myelosu ppression) was slight. Conclusions:treatment using gemcitabine with lipiodol emulsion for arterial emboliyation and arterial infusion for chemtherapy in advanced live r cancer is not only safe but also improves the patients' quality of life.The r esults suggested that the treatment is mild in toxicity.

To evaluate the protective effect of MgSO_4 during cerebral ischemia reperfusion,twentyfour SD rats were divided randomly into control group (n=7),ischemic reperfusion group (n=9)and MgSO_4 treatment group (n=8)with Pnlsinelli and Brierley's animal ischemic reperfusion model. Compared with the control and ischemic reperfusion group,cerebral tissue contents of water and malondialdehyde reduced markedly (P

Objective:To establish an atomic absorption spectrometry method for the determination of lead and ferrum in pre-mix-ture coating film. Methods:The samples were digested by microwave digestion system, and Pb was determined by graphite atomic ab-sorption spectrometry(GFAAS), and Fe was determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry(FAAS). Results: There was good linear relationship within the range of 1.0-5.0 μg·L-1(r=0.999 4) for lead and 0.1-1.0 mg·L-1(r=0.998 4) for ferrum. The recovery of lead was 91. 3%(RSD=1. 4%,n=9)and that of ferrum was 89. 9%(RSD=3. 5%,n=9). Conclusion: The method is accurate and stable, which can be used for the determination of lead and ferrum in pre-mixture coating film

Objective To study the connection between vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and pool prognosis in nephroblastoma.Methods Serum VEGF was measured with immuneohistochemical(ELISA) methods in 35 children of nephroblastoma at preope-ration,1 week,2 weeks after surgery respectively. Simple visiting happened after surgery 4,8,16,32 weeks.The countrol group was 35 healthy children. Result Before surgery,the median VEGF in the children was (89.47?22.45) ?g/L.After surgery 1 week,2 weeks,levels in the children fell significantly to (2.75?0.31) ?g/L,(1.52?0.18) ?g/L.There was a significant difference compared with preoperation ( t =4.125 P

Objective:to study and solve some difficult problems in identification of medicinal plants in Selaginellaceae, and research the phylogenetic relationships among them.Methods:All the spectra were collected by using a Fourier transform near-infrared spectrometer equipped with a fiber-optic probe and a InGaAs detector for reflectance measurements.All the samples were scanned from 9 000 cm-1 to 4 000 cm-1,and each sample spectrum was obtained as an automatic mean of 32 times.The samples were measured 5 times.The average spectra obtained were transformed to first-order derivative spectra,and the latter were computerized with OPUS/INDENT operation software to conduct cluster analysis.Results:According to the information obtained from spectrograms and dendrograms,two types of S.heterostachys and two types of S.delicatula were identified as the same species respectively,and the variable type of the latter should be treated as a variety.S.tamariscina and S.pulvinata have very close relationship,indicating it is reasonable that they were applied as the same medicinal materials Juanbai.There is close phylogenetic relationship between S.moellendorffii and S.delicatula.This is also accord with the fact that they were used as the same folk herbal medicine.Conclusion:It shows that NIRS can be conveniently and quickly used for authentication of the medicinal plant species,resolving some correlative difficult problems,and inducing certain relationships between interspecies.
