Objective To explore the effective evaluation methods of case-based learning (CBL) in critical disease teaching.Methods Totally 53 undergraduate students in department of clinical medicine of Shanghai Jiao Tong University,who practiced in our hospital from 2010 to 2012,were divided into the traditional teaching group and CBL teaching group.We used traditional teaching combining with CBL teaching in CBL group.Common cases of critical illness(severe acute pancreatitis and multiple trauma)in intensive care unit (ICU) were selected for CBL cases.The evaluation of theoretical knowledge,mini-clinical evaluation exercise(Mini-CEX)and direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) were continued after teaching and practice.Results These was no significant difference in the theoretical knowledge examination between the two groups. In Mini-CEX,the students in CBL group were better concerning the medical interview capacity (P=0.000),humanistic care (P=0.013),clinical diagnosis(P=0.035),counseling(P=0.009) and the overall clinical competence (P=0.008) than those in traditional teaching group.The DOPS scores of endotracheal intubation (P=0.016)and central venous catheterization (P=0.001)discussed in CBL teaching were significantly higher in CBL group.Conclusion Traditional theoretical knowledge examination has little significance in the assessment of CBL teaching,but Mini-CEX and DOPS can reflect the advantages of CBL teaching better in the assessment of clinical abilities and skills.

Objective To study the expression levels of inducible costimulator (ICOS) on CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood in patients with chronic hepatitis B and its change after treated with interferon.Methods All 56 patients were divided into two groups (interferon group has 28 cases,lamivudine group has 28 cases),and interferon group treated by PEG-IFN-α 2a,lamivudine group treated by lamivudine,respectively.There were 20 healthy individuals as control group.The levels of ICOS on CD4+ T cells of patients with chronic hepatitis B were kinetically detected by flow cytometry.The copies of HBV DNA in sera were dynamically detected by real-time PCR.Results The levels of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients with chronic hepatitis B was higher than that of normal controls(P＜0.001 ).However,the expressions of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients could be deduced by PEG-IFN-α 2a and obviously decreased after treatment.There was significant difference between interferon group and lamivudine group (P＜0.05 in 24 weeks,and P＜0.01 in 48 weeks).After treatment,the change values of ICOS in interferon group was positively correlated with the change copies of HBV DNA (r =0.972,P＜0.001 ).However,the change values mentioned above that did not find correlation in lamivudine group(r=-0.101,P=0.608).Conclusion The study shows the patients with chronic hepatitis B have disordered in cellular immunity and increased with the expression of ICOS on CD4+ T cells.PEG-IFN-α 2a could decrease the expression of ICOS on CD4+ T cells in patients,and correct the Th2 type immune polarization to some extent,and that plays a positive role in antiHBV.

Objective To explore the neural basis of the visual illusory motion using the event-related potential(ERP).Methods One hundred trials(each duration 2 000 ms)of a visual illusory motion figure,rippling wheat pattern made by Akiyoshi Kitaoka,and a visual static figure made of modified rippling wheat pattern were randomly presented with equal probability.Ten healthy right handed undergraduate students as subjects were asked to judge the stimulus whether motional or not.The EEG was recorded from 128 scalp sites using with electrodes mounted in HydroCel GSN cap(Electrical Geodesics Incorporated,Oregon,USA).Results 1)The C1 component of ERP could be evoked by both visual illusory motion pattern and static pattern in POz.The peak of C1 component was presented about 75 ms after each stimulus.C1 component evoked with visual illusory motion was negative,but it's static pattern to be positive.2)P100 and P200 components could be obviously evoked by both kinds of stimuli,but in O2 the amplitudes of P100 evoked by different stimuli were significant different and in T3 the amplitudes of P200 were significant different too.Conclusion The visual illusory motion is formed at the primary visual cortex.It may be related to the organized mode of perception.

Objective To observe the effects of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) on patients with type A thoracolumbar fractures treated by pedicle screw fixation via dorsal-approach and vertebral body bone graft.Methods A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 64 patients with type A thoracolumbar fractures treated from June 2012 to July 2015.The patients were divided into control group (32 cases) and research group (32 cases) according to the random number table.There were 22 males and 10 females aged (48.2 ± 11.2)years old in control group.The injury was located at T11 in 2 cases,T12 in 4,L1 in 9,L2 in 7,L3 in 7 and L4 in 3 in control group.There were 24 males and 8 females aged (50.7 ± 11.4) years old in research group.The injury was located at T11in 2 cases,T12in 4,L1in 8,L2 in 8,L3 in 7 and L4 in 3.The control group was treated with posterior pedicle screw reduction,internal fixation and allograft cancellous bone grafting through pedicle of vertebral arch.The research group was treated with rhBMP-2 (mixed with cancellous bone implants) on the basis of the control group.The time of operation,the amount of bleeding during operation,the volume of postoperative bleeding,the amount of postoperative drainage,the recovery of the injured vertebra,the Lane-Sandhu score,the time of fracture healing,and the postoperative complications were compared.Results There was no difference between two groups on operation time,amount of bleeding during operation or amount of postoperative drainage (P ＞ 0.05).No difference existed in two groups about Cobb angle and injured vertebral leading edge height at one week after operation (P ＞ 0.05).At the time of last follow-up (12 months),in research group,Cobb angle was lower while injured vertebral leading edge height was much higher than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05),both of which were better than before (P ＜ 0.05).At 12 months after surgery,the lost Cobb angle of [(2.0 ± 0.7) °] and lost height of injured vertebral leading edge [(3.2 ± 1.0) ％] were smaller than those in control group [(5.6 ± 1.7) ° and (6.8 ± 2.4) ％ respectively] (P ＜ 0.05).The Lane-Sandhu score and healing time of fracture in research group were (8.9 ± 0.8) points and (6.9 ± 0.9) months,which were better than that (6.8 ±0.8)points and (8.4 ± 1.6)months in control group respectively (P＜0.05).The complication rate of research group was lower than that of control group,with no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with simple vertebral bone graft,posterior thoracolumbar vertebrae pedicle screw fixation with vertebral bone graft and hBMP-2 treatment for type A thoracolumbar fractures can restore vertebral stability,shorten the time of fracture healing and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective To discuss the clinical value of interventional management before surgical therapy for massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and to compare the clinical efficacy and re-bleeding rate between hypophysin infusion group and embolization group. Methods During the period of June 1998-Apr.2009, 31 patients with massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage in our institution underwent preoperative interventional managements before they received surgical treatment. According to DSA manifestations, the patients underwent trunsarterial hypophysin infusion or transcatheter embolization as interventional management. The clinical efficacy of interventional procedures and its influence on the surgery were evaluated, and the hemostasis rate and re-bleeding rate were compared the two kind of intervention managements. The numeration data were analyzed with Fisher's exact test, and the SPSS 11.0 was used as statistical software. Results The interventional managements were successfully performed in all the 31patients, with a total hemostasis rate of 83.9% (26/31) and a total re-bleeding rate 30.7% (8/26). The hemostasis rate and re-bleeding rate of hypephysin infusion group and embolization group were 69.2% (9/13), 94.4% (17/18) and 44.4% (4/9), 23.7% (4/17), respectively. All the 31 patients received surgery after interventional therapy, of which selective operation was carried out in 20. Neither surgery-related or intervention-related serious complications nor death occurred. Conclusion Preoperative interventional managements can provide patients with massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage with valuable chance of a successful surgery, enable the physician to take a selective operation to replace an emergency one, as a result, the surgical risk will be greatly reduced. Therefore, it is worth popularizing the preoperative interventional managements in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the changes in cardiac index and oxygenation index in sepsis piglets after nitric oxide (NO) gas inhalation. Methods A piglet model of sepsis was induced by intravenous infusion of Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin (LPS), then the piglets were randomly divided into two groups. NO group (n=8) was administered with inhaled nitric oxide of 80ppm via volume control (VC) mechanical ventilation for one hour, while the control group (n = 4) received mechanical ventilation with VC and was observed for one hour to assess the stability of the model. The parameters of oxygenation and hemodynamics were measured by PICCO and arterial blood gas analysis every fifteen minutes for one hour. Results Injection of endotoxin induced a stable pig model of sepsis. PH, HCO3-, arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac index in this model were significantly lower the baseline values (P < 0.01). Arterial oxygen pressure and cardiac index were significantly higher in N0 group than in the control group (P<0.01). Heart rate (HR), central venous pressure (CVP), global end-diastolic volume index (GEDI) and intrathoracic blood volume index (ITBI) did not significantly differ between NO group and the control group. Conclusions Inhalation of nitric oxide gas can significantly improve oxygenation and cardiac function in piglets with sepsis.
