1.Exploration of neonatology clinical probation teaching for eight-year program medical students
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(3):273-275
Neonatology probation teaching is one of the difficulties in eight-year program pediatric teaching.There are some problems in the neonatology probation teaching,including partial comprehension of neonatal basic theoretical knowledge,few opportunities of clinical operations and observation,lack of effective physician-patient communication method,defective mastering of neonatal clinics skills.In order to refine the neonatology probation of eight-year program medical students and to improve the quality of hospitals' clinical teaching,an appropriate neonatology clerkship program of eightyear medical students should be investigated.A variety of teaching methods should be applied to enhance students' interest of learning the basic theory.Before entering the neonatal ward,it is necessary for eight-year program medical students to understand the workflow and a standard appraisal system should be established.At the same time,it is essential to strengthen the training of their interpersonal communication skills,clinical thinking and clinical skills.Finally,a standard out-department examination system should be established to evaluate the eight-year program medical students' neonatology learning effect objectively.

Chinese Journal of Radiology 2001;0(08):-
Objective To evaluate the tumor targeting characteristic by observing signal varying of human gastric cancer transplanted nude mice (SGC-7901) using Folate-Receptor MR contrast agent. Methods As a Folate-Receptor MR contrast agent, Gd-DTPA-Folate was obtained by conjugation of DTPA-Folate and GdCl3 under specific conditions. Nude mice of subcutaneously transplanted human gastric cancer (SGC-7901) were used as animal models, 12 mice were divided into experimental group(n=6) and control group(n=6) randomly. Both were injected with Gd-DTPA-Folate and Gd-DTPA (contained same gadolinium) via abdominal cavity respectively. Tumor signal varying was observed by T1WI after injection of contrast agent immediately,1,2,3,4,6,12 and 24 h, and tumor signal changing of experimental group was compared with that of control group. CNR (contrast noise ratio) was regarded as evaluating mark. Results Tumor signal intensity of experimental group was increased evidently between 1-2 hours after injecting Gd-DTPA-Folate. Comparison with pre-injection, there was a significant difference(evaluating mark is CNR: q1=5.80, q2=4.64; P0.05). Conclusion Gd-DTPA-Folate shows definite characteristic of tumor targeting effect to nude mice of subcutaneously transplanted human gastric cancer (SGC-7901).

Objective To analyze the effect of meniscus tear on prognosis of tibial plateau fracture and the effect of fracture on meniscus healing by comparing the outcomes of simple tibial plateau fractures and the fractures combined with meniscus injury. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in 57 cases of tibial plateau fractures treated with internal fixation in our hospital from January 2004 to June 2006. Twenty-three of them were complicated with meniscus tear and received repairing. Knee joint functions were evaluated by the HSS (The Hospital for Special Surgery) score. The menisci were examined by Joint-line tenderness, McMurray, Apley and Thessaly tests. The femorotibial angle (FTA), tibial plateau angle (TPA) and posterior slop angle (PA) were measured on X-ray images. Results Fifty cases were followed up for an average Of 15 (6 to 24) months. The HSS scores for the simple tibial plateau fracture and the tibial plateau fracture combined with meniscus tear were 87.9 and 87.1, respectively. There were no statistical signifi-cances in HSS score(t=0.351, P=0.727), FTA, TPA and PA results between the 2 groups. No more positive physical signs of meniscus tear were found in the group of tibial plateau fracture combined with meniscus tear than in the other group. Conclusions Meniscus tear may not affect the postoperative re-habilitation of the knee joint with tibial plateau fracture; neither is there evidence that tibial plateau fracture may hinder meniscus healing.
