Formative assessment is in conformity with the teaching concept of problem-based learning (PBL).It is to make a real-time,dynamic and sustainable observation and evaluation in the whole teaching process.It is helpful to improve learning and teaching continuously.The PBL clinical teaching courses of long-schooling program in our school obtained the certain effect.It used the formative evaluation mode.The homemade students mutual table and teacher evaluation table were used in PBL course.Specifically,students' self-evaluation and mutual-evaluation were made,and then teacher gave some comments in 10 minutes before the end of each class.Every student was scored by the group leader and teacher according to all these abilities,such as the power of expression,question ability,communication skills,coordination skills and the ability to access.At the end of one case study students wrote self assessment reports,and then the teacher wrote reviews,graded and gave feedback to students.However,the final scores were archived as data instead of being part of the course grade.The application of formative assessment has promoted the teaching effect of PBL.However,in the following practice,teachers should be targeted to solve the problems such as lack of teachiers,the students' self evaluation and mutual evaluation being not fair and highly recognized,and a few students having slack psychology.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dietary ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) supplementation on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury in rats.Methods Totally 58 male SD rats were divided into control group (n =10),model group (n =12),ω-3 PUFA high-dose group (n =12),ω-3PUFA medium-dose group (n =12),and ω-3 PUFA low-dose group (n =12).Seven days before model establishment,rats in the three ω-3 PUFA groups were orally given ω-3 PUFA at 1,0.5,and 0.25 g/kg body weight once per day,respectively,for seven consecutive days.Twenty-four hours after the last administration,all rats except those in the control group were given intravenous injection of LPS (6 mg/kg) at caudal vein to establish the model of acute lung injury.Body temperature was measured at 0,6,and 24 hour.Blood samples were collected from the eye venous plexus for routine blood tests and blood biochemical tests 24 hours after modeling.After the rats were sacrificed,the left lung was harvested for measuring the wet weight and dry weight and calculating the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D).The right lung was harvested for pathological observation under light microscope and calculation of semi-quantitative pathological index (PI).Results Twenty-four hours after modeling,deaths were noted in all groups except the control group.After injection of LPS,rats curled with little movements.At 6 hour,the body temperature was significantly higher in the model group than in the control group [(37.4 ±0.27)℃ vs.(35.9 ±0.05) ℃,P =0.00] ; it was (36.2 ±0.38)℃,(36.3 ±0.30)℃,and (36.3 ± 0.32) ℃ in the ω-3 PUFA high-,medium-,and low-dose groups,which were significantly lower than that in the model group (all P =0.01).The amounts of white blood cells,neutrophils,and lymphocytes increased in the model group,but showing no significant difference compared with the other groups.The serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (GOT) and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) levels were significantly higher in the model group than in the control group [(353 ± 235) U/L vs.(157 ± 55) U/L,P =0.02 ; (141± 103) U/L vs.(54 ±23) U/L,P =0.03] ; the ω-3 PUFA high-dose group had significantly lower GOT and GPT levels than the model group did [(167 ±94) U/L vs.(353 ±235) U/L,P =0.03 ; (63 ±57) U/L vs.(141 ± 103) U/L,P =0.04].The model group had significantly higher lung wet weight [(371 ±38) mg vs.(281 ±24) mg,P=0.01] and W/D value (7.34±1.40 vs.5.41 ±0.84,P=0.01) compared with the control group.Compared with the model group,the W/D value was significantly lower in the ω-3 PUFA high-,medium-,and low-dose groups (6.17 ±0.58,P =0.03; 6.17 ± 0.76,P =0.03; 6.13 ± 1.23,P =0.04).Light microscopy showed that the lung alveoli of the model group presented congestion,obvious expansion,and scattered inflammatory cell infiltration in interstitium,along with significantly increased PI compared with the control group (3.9±0.9 vs.0.0±0.0,P=0.00).The PI value was (2.1 ±0.3),(2.1 ±0.3),and (2.3 ± 0.5) in ω-3 PUFA high-,medium-,and low-dose groups,respectively,all significantly lower than that in the model group (all P =0.01).Conclusions The acute lung injury model could be successful established by intravenous injection of LPS.ω-3 PUFA at different doses can improve the acute lung injury of rats.It is therefore supposed that early enteral administration of ω-3 PUFA can alleviate LPS-induced acute lung injury,although the optimal dosage and timing need further research.

Toll like receptors (TLRs) are the earliest discovered natural immune pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). The abnormality of TLR signal transduction pathway is the key factor leading to chronic inflammatory, cancer, nervous system disease and cardiovascular diseases. The development of TLR agonists and inhibitors has attracted much attention. Currently known TLR2 agonists, such as lipopeptides or their derivatives, have certain limitations in drug development due to their difficult synthesis, easy hydrolysis, and triggering inflammatory cytokine storms, while inhibitors have been rarely reported. New small molecule TLR2 agonists or inhibitors with higher stability are more likely to be developed as tumor immunotherapy or anti-inflammatory drugs.

Objective:To explore the relationship between loneliness and attachment in college students and the mediating effect of rumination.Methods:Totally 545 students [239 males,306 females;average age (20 ± 3) years] were assessed with the Russell UCLA Loneliness Scale (UCLA),Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory (ECR,including attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety) and Nolen-Hoeksema Ruminative Response Scale (RRS).The structural equation model was used to research the mediating effect of rumination on relationship between loneliness and attachment.Results:The scores of UCLA,ECR and RRS were positively correlated each other (r =0.30,0.20,0.44,Ps ＜ 0.01) in college students.The inspection of the mediating effect found fit indices for hypothetical model were acceptable (x2 =16.69,df=5,NFI =0.98,IFI =0.99,TLI =0.96,CFI =0.99,AGFI =0.96,RMSEA =0.07).Path analysis revealed that attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety predicted directly loneliness (β =0.10,0.06) and rumination (β =0.05,0.16),and predicted loneliness by rumination (β =0.18).Conclusion:The rumination may be associated with loneliness and individual attachment and play a partial mediating effect between loneliness and attachment in college students.

Parkinson's disease(PD)is a common neurodegenerative disease mainly affecting old persons.The pathogenesis of PD is still unclear, although it has been studied for many years.Recently, more and more evidences show that the dysfunction of autophagy plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of PD.Substantial progress in the genetic research of PD has showed that several pathogenic genes were identified correlated with autophagy, in particular, playing an important role in sporadic cases of PD.Here, we will discuss pathogenic genes-correlated dysfunctional autophagy-lysosomes system, so as to specify the pathogenesis of PD and provide a clue for its treatment.

Objective To investigate the role of cyclophilin A (CypA) and CD147 in the process of skin aging. Methods Twenty cases of tissue samples from junior group(＜15 years old), middle age group(30-40 years old)or old age group (＞65 years old) were collected from photophobic and exposal parts of skin, respectively. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH) were carried out to semi-quantitatively detect the expression level of CyPA and CD147. Results IHC demonstrated that both CyPA and CD147 were expressed in both photophobic and exposal parts of normal human skin in all 3 groups. The expression levels of both CyPA and CD147 were increased with increase in age. There were significant differences in both CyPA and CD147 expression among 3 groups (P<0.05). CyPA and CD147 were also positively correlated in all 3 groups. Similar results were achieved by ISH. Conclusion The interaction between CD147 and CyPA might play an important role in the process of skin aging.

Objective To explore the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in diagnosis of placental accrete,placental increta and placental percreta. Methods Twenty suspected patients of placental accrete, placental increta and placental percreta were examined with CEUS after routine ultrasound examination. Sono Vue was injected intravenously as bolus and a real time CEUS was performed to observe the characteristics. Results Comparison of 15 CEUS cases with uterine curettage, 8 cases had a clear relationship between the residual disease of the uterine cavity and uterine wall,7 cases had a thin thickness (2-4 mm) between the residual disease of the uterine cavity and uterine wall. Five of the 20 cases performed cesarean cesion,3 cases of the uterine serosa of placenta affixing part were very thin,incomplete and rough, demonstrating placenta increta and placenta percreta, 1 case of uterine rupture showed non-invasiveness between uterine wall and uterine serosa,and 1 case of placenta increta pathologically proven, initially suspected gestational trophoblastic disease by the CEUS. Conclusions CEUS provides an important diagnostic message for placental accrete, placental increta and placental percreta by showing the different characteristics of the perfusion image.

Objective To observe the protection of human keratinocyte cell line, HaCaT cell, from UVA damage by resveratrol and its possible mechanism. Methods HaCaT cells were incubated with or without 0.01 mmol/L or 0.1 mmol/L resveratrol after exposure to 5 J/cm2 UVA irradiation. Unirradiated HaCaT cells-without the treatment with resveratrol served as the control. After another 24-hour culture, MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation of cells, RT-PCR and Western-blot to measure the iNOS mRNA and protein expression respectively, electron microscopic technique to observe the changes in cell ultrastructure. Results After irradiation with UVA of 5 J/cm2, the proliferation of HaCaT cells decreased with the absorbance at 490 nm descending from 0.889±0.083 to 0.542±0.004, while a significant increase was observed in the relative expression level of iNOS mRNA and protein in HaCaT cells (1.532±0.041 vs 0.009±0.003, 1.331 ±0.046 vs 0.003±0.001, both P < 0.05) with the presence of typical apoptotic cells. The treatment with 0.01 and 0.1 mmol/L resveratrol significantly promoted the proliferation of irradiated cells with the absorbance at 490 nm being 0.753±0.435 and 0.892±0.173 respectively, but inhibited the mRNA (0.853±0.038 vs 1.532±0.041, 0.392±0.033 vs 1.532±0.041, both P< 0.05) and protein expression level (0.809±0.018 vs 1.331±0.046, 0.412±0.026 vs 1.331±0.046, both P< 0.05) of iNOS in irradiated cells, and the resveratrol of 0.1 mmol/L was more effective than that ofO.01 mmol/L in all tested parameters (P< 0.05). Furthermore, no apoptofic cells or necrotic cells were observed in irradiated ceils incubated with resveratrol. Conclusion Resveratrol effectively protects HaCaT cells from UVA damage, which may be related to the inhibition of UVA-induced iNOS expression by resveratrol.
