Objective To study the effects of violet flower Bidai extracts on body weight,blood lipid level,serum leptin level,the activity of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase of obese rats,and to discuss the mechanism of violet flower Bidai extracts on weight reduction.Methods Male obese rats which induced by high energy diet were randomly divided into four groups.All rats were given high energy diet.One control group was gavaged with normal saline and one western medicine group was gavaged with sibutramine,and two violet flower Bidai extracts groups was gavaged with water solutions of violet flower Bidai extracts at doses of 6 g(crude drug)/kg BW,12 g(crude drug)/kg BW,respectively.After six weeks,body weight,obese index,weight of abdominal fat tissue,fasting lipid,leptin in serum,the activity of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase were measured.Results Body weight,obese index,weight of abdominal fat tissue in the two violet flower Bidai extracts groups were significantly lower than those in obese control group(P

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 investigate quitting motivation of smoking patients with mild and moder-ate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) and evaluate the effects of smoking cessation methods based on cognitive intervention.Methods A total of 102 smoking patients with mild and moderate COPD from the outpatient department was divided into 4 blocks according to their intention of quitting smoking.Pa-tients in each block were randomly divided into intervention and control groups.Results ⑴All the re-spondents were at an average age of (61.3 ±12.3) years old.The sex ratio of men to women was 99∶3. The average smoking index (bag/year) in all the respondents was (39.81 ±11.53).The average daily smoking was (14.22 ±2.30) packs.The respondents with a lower degrees accounted for 55.9%and the respondents with high nicotine dependence 49.0%.A total of 39 people (38.2%) hoped to give up smok-ing, 20 people (19.6%) strongly hoped to give up smoking.⑵The main reasons for smoking included en-joyment (7.02), dependence (6.88), and calm (6.55).⑶There were statistically significant difference in the half-year continuous abstinence rates (χ2 =4.993, P =0.025) and in June quit rates (χ2 =6.668, P =0.010) between the intervention (58.82%) and control (33.33%) groups.The weight gain had sig-nificant difference between the intervention and control groups at the 3rd month ( t =2.65, P <0.01) or 6th month ( t =2.07, P <0.05) after quitting smoking.Conclusions The quitting motivation of smoking patients with mild and moderate COPD is not strong, while the smoking cessation methods based on cogni-tive intervention are effective for those patients.

Objective To establish a rabbit posttraumatic acute diffuse brain swelling (PADBS) model and investigate the mechanism of action.Methods Fifty New Zealand rabbits were assigned to control group (n =10) and model group (n =40) according to random number table.The animal model of sinus balloon compression was established under intracranial pressure monitoring by using intracranial pressure probe.The model group was subdivided equally at 1.5 hours after compression,1.5 hours after decompression,3 hours after decompression and 4.5 hours after decompression,for which intracranial pressure,brain water content,pathological mechanism and ultrastructure were measured dynamically.Results The success rate of modeling was 83％ (33/40).Intracranial pressure was (4.9 ± 0.8)mmHg in control group,(50.1 ± 4.3) mmHg in 1.5 hours after compression group,(45.2 ± 1.7) mmHg in 1.5 hours after decompression group,(48.6 ± 2.2) mmHg in 3 hours after decompression group,and (59.1 ±2.5)mmHg in 4.5 hours after decompression group (P ＜0.05).Brain water content was (75.0 ± 0.6) ％ in control gorup,(76.7 ± 0.8) ％ in 1.5 hours after compression group,(77.3 ± 0.5) ％ in 1.5 hours after decompression group,(78.5 ± 0.6) ％ in 3 hours after decompression group,and (79.4 ± 0.7) ％ in 4.5 hours after decompression group (P ＜ 0.05).Vasogenic brain oedema was seen 1.5 hours after decompression.Cytotoxicity brain swelling generated with brain tissue destroyed 3 hours after decompression.The vicious cycle of high intracranial pressure and brain tissue destruction occurred 4.5 hours after decompression.Conclusion Under intracranial pressure probe monitoring,the rabbit model of PADBS by sinus balloon compression has stable pressure of the sinus balloon and has good reliability and repeatability,which provides a reliable evidence for further study on the possible mechanism and treatment methods of PADBS.

Teaching rounds is an important part of clinical teaching but it is difficult to implement in place for a variety of reasons. To endocrine and metabolic section as an example, Lack of enthusiasm, inadequate preparation and other issues result that teaching rounds is difficult to achieve the desired effect in the teaching rounds, especially in the English teaching rounds. In view of the above situation, based on the concept of PBL to carry out teaching rounds in English is not only an important method to cultivate the clinical thinking of medical students, but also an important measure to improve teachers' and students' English proficiency, as well as to cultivate medical students' clinical thinking. The last but not the least, carrying out teaching rounds in English is an important measure for medical education reform and improve-ment. Facts have proved that carrying out teaching rounds in English has a high practicality and feasibility in clinical practice.

Objective:To compare postoperative analgesic effect of flurbiprofen axetil and parecoxib sodium in patients with humeral shaft fracture in painless ward.Methods:All of 200 hospitalized humeral fractures patients were retrospectively studied in the painless ward of the Forth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2017 to September 2019 , the clinical effects of flurbiprofen axetil and parecoxib were compared.Results:Postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) scores after 3 d of two groups of patients were significantly lower, compared with preoperative results: (4.26±0.96) scores vs. (6.09±1.38) scores, (4.04±1.19) scores vs. (6.04±1.11) scores, and the differences were statistical significantly ( P<0.01). Postoperative VAS score after 3 d of two groups had no statistical significance ( P>0.05). Two groups had different degree of adverse reactions after operation, and flurbiprofen axetil group had singnificant gastrointestinal adverse reaction: 22 patients vs. 3 patients( P<0.05). The number of patients in the parecoxib group were more than that in the flubiprofen axetil group without troubled sleep: 20 patients vs. 8 patients. Two groups of patients were satisfied with the pain care during hospitalization. Conclusions:Two analgestic drugs can obtain obvious analgesic effect in the treatment of bones surgery. The side effects and sleep disturbance in the flurbiprofen axetil group are higher than those in the parecoxib group. Good pain control can improve patients satisfaction with pain care.
