Objective To investigate the mastery of clinical students' doctor-patient communi-cation skills and to assess the teaching effectiveness about the doctor-patient communication, and then propose some improvement ideas. Methods We conducted a study in students of clinical medicine of Nanjing Medical University in Grade 2009, using Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) after internship, which included graduation assessment of doctor-patient communication skills. Then we analyzed the doctor-patient communication skills and related scores of students trained in different clinical medical programs. Results The average score of doctor-patient communication skills of 549 students was (82.72±4.23), of which, the average score of 329 five-year students of clinical medicine was (81.88±4.23) and the average score of seven-year students was (83.96±3.91) in. The average score of seven-year students of clinical medicine was significantly higher than five-year students (P=0.000). Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between the total score of OSCE and the score of doctor-patient communication skills in both five-year and seven-year students of clinical medicine (five year program students' score correlation coefficient was 0.520, P=0.000;seven year pro-gram students' score correlation coefficient 0.416, P=0.000). Conclusion The teaching effectiveness of doctor-patient communication has proved to be quite effective, and it is definitely of great significance in improving clinical students' doctor-patient communication skills. The score of the assessment of the doctor-patient communication reflects not only the training effectiveness of the communication skills, but also the comprehensive capacity.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of itraconazole oral solutions on pulmonary candidiasis albicans in ICU patients.Methods A total of 71 patients with candida ablicans in their sputum clutures were randomized into two groups.The itraconazole group(n= 36)received itraconazole 200 mg,p.o.(including nasal feeding),q12h for 14 days.The fluconazole group(n=35)received fluconazole 400 mg for the first dose,then 200 mg,i.v.drip,qd for 14 days.Results There were 31 patients in the itraconazole group and 29 paitents in the fluconazole group who completed their treatment.In the itraconazole and fluconazole group,the clearance of candida ablicans was 64.52%(20/31)vs.65.55%(19/29),cleaning time(10.12?2.57)vs(8.87?1.95)days,effective rate 58.06%(18/31)vs 62.07%(18/29),recovery rate is 19.35%(6/31)vs 17.24%(5/29),occurrence of hepatic dysfunction is 25.81%(8/31)vs 24.14%(7/29),and withdrawal for inefficacy was 3.23%(1/31)vs 6.90%(2/29),respectively.These parameters did not have statistical significance.Conclusion Itraconazole oral solutions can be used effectively and safely in the treatment of pulmonary candidiasis albicans in ICU.Patients with renal dysfunction do not need to adjust the dosage.

The Risk-sharing agreements have achieved remarkable success in improving patients'access to drugs, lowering the uncertainty of the drugs cost-effectiveness, financial risk control and other aspects of medical in-surance fund , so they have attracted widespread attention by the concerned governments and insurers .This paper sys-tematically reviewed the patient access schemes in UK from several aspects , including the origin of the program , clas-sification , application processes and the implementation effects as well .The results of the research indicated that Chi-na has basically met the conditions for implementation of the risk-sharing agreements .In order to gradually promote the risk-sharing agreements implementation , this paper suggests that China should clarify the main root of risk-sharing agreements implementation , establish risk-sharing agreements standardization process and strengthen the application of health technology assessment in health resources allocation to improve the Chinese medicines bargaining system more scientifically and efficiently .

Exercise training plays a critical role in the prevention and control of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). New guidelines on exercise training for T2DM patients was jointly published by American College of Sports Medicine and American Diabetes Association at the end of 2010. In the Guidelines on Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in China issued by Chinese Diabetes Society, the role of exercise training is also clearly defined. The implementation of guidelines requires individualized exercise training prescription and program. In this article, we review the procedure of individualized aerobic exercise training prescription, resistant exercise, safety issues, and other relevant topics.

It is important and difficult to establish the market competition mechanism in the health care re-form. Medical voucher system in Hong Kong and Macao can provide policy guidelines for Mainland China to promote institutional innovation, force public hospital reform and the rational allocation of medical and health resources. This paper introduced the origin and development of medical voucher system. Based on the description of the implementa-tion background, similarities and differences and effects of medical voucher system in Hong Kong and Macao, the pa-per found that medical voucher system could help encourage the demander to make more frequent use of medical serv-ices, improve their consciousness of prevention and health care and promote family doctor system. Through analyzing the applicability of medical voucher system in mainland China, the paper pointed out it was consistent with the reform orientation and could be served as a useful supplement to the health care system to improve medical insurance, medi-cal assisstance system as well as an effective measure to develop private medical institutions.

Objective To identify antimicrobial susceptibilities of community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections and the risk factors of severe infections.Methods Clinical data of 184 cases of community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections collected from 4 hospitals in Ningbo during May 2008 and May 2013 were reviewed.Microbial sensitivity test and virulence genes ( pvl and tst) detection were performed in clinical isolates, and SCCmec genotyping was performed in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA) strains.Binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for severe infections.Results Among 184 cases of community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections, 39 ( 21.20%) were severe cases. Staphylococcus aureus strains were highly resistant to penicillin, erythromycin and clindamycin, but more than 75% strains were sensitive to oxacillin, aminoglycosides, quinolones, rifampicin and vancomycin.Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age (OR=1.024, 95%CI:1.005-1.043, P<0.05), malignant tumor (OR=15.288, 95%CI:1.609-145.229, P<0.05) , autoimmune diseases or long-term hormone therapy ( OR=12.102, 95%CI:2.082-70.338, P <0.01 ) were risk factors for severe community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections. Conclusions Strains isolated from the patients with community-acquired Staphylococcus aureus infections in Ningbo are usually sensitive to oxacillin, aminoglycosides, quinolones, rifampicin and vancomycin, which may be recommended for clinical use.Elder patients and those with malignant tumor, autoimmune diseases or long-term hormone therapy are more likely to develop severe Staphylococcus aureus infections.
