Aiming at some problems existing in the cultivation of advanced studying doctors,we think that strict selection should be made to guide advanced studying doctors to have correct understanding of their specialty and systemic training to improve the training quality.

With the development of the human society, people have come to pay more and more attention not only to their life quality but also to the quality of their life before death. Hence the emergence of hospice. At present there are three types of hospice in China: the family type, the general hospital type, and the special institution type. Each of these types has its own shortcomings. Hence the need for social work to intervene in hospice. The paper discusses the viability and necessity of the intervention through the notion, channels and methods of intervention. The role of social workers in hospice is also discussed.

Tumor surface antigen human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) is a type I receptor tyrosine kinase, which belongs to human epidermal growth factor receptor family. Her2-overexpression is associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis. Due to significant clinical effects, Her2-targeted cancer therapy especially therapeutic antibody has become the hot spot in the field of cancer treatment. Anti-Her2 antibody drugs include monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies and emerging "two in one" antibody. Based on structure and function of Her2, this review focuses on recent advances in active mechanisms and clinical researches of these antibodies.

Numbering quantities of medical equipment is studied based on Queueing Theory, which can provide a useful and applicable tool for study on medical equipment numbering.

Objective To explore the risk factors contributing to wound complications following operative fixation for fractured calcanea.Methods Fitly-six patients with 61 fractured calcanea who had been treated with operative fixation from March 2000 to March 2003 were enrolled in investigation.General information of the pa- tients,ages,injury causes,classification of fracture,fall heights,smoking,delayed operation time,operation time and tourniquet time were documented preoperatively and postoperatively to be analyzed statistically.Results We report an overall wound complication rate of 14.8%(9/61).Wound infection,haematoma,dehiscence,heel necrosis and osteomyelitis were noted in our series.We identified the following as risk factors of postoperative wound compli- cations:1)fall from more than 3.4 m high(P＜0.05);2)delayed operation time less than seven days(P＜0.05); 3)operating time beyond two hours(P＜0.05);4)tourniquet time beyond 1.5 hours(P＜0.05).Conclusion In order to decrease wound complications following operative fixation tor fractured calcanea,surgeons should pertorm the operation 7 to 10 days after the injury,and reduce the operation time and tourniquet time.

Objective: To develop HPLC method for determination of alliin concentration in mice plasma. Methods: The plasma samples were extracted with methanol. The analysis involved a ODS 1 column as stationary phase and distilled water as mobile phase. The flow rate was 0.5mL?min -1 , UV detection wavelength was at 220nm. 5 Fu was used as the internal standard. Results: The calibration curve was linear over a range from 14.8?g?mL -1 to 148.1?g?mL -1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9992. Conclusion: The method is economic, simple, sensitive and accurate.

Objective To evaluate the value of video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS)for penetrating thoracoabdominal injuries.Methods Under general anaesthesia and double-lumen tracheal intubation,VATS was carried out to examine patients with chest injuries.Those who had mild injuries received VATS combined with mini-incision surgery.Electrocoagulation or suturing was employed to control intraoperative bleeding,and then blood clots were removed.Injured diaphragm muscles were repaired,and organs with hemorrhage or ruptures were sutured or resected.The seriously injured cases underwent open surgery and intra-abdominal exploration instead.Results A total of 18 patients received the operations.Among them,15 patients underwent VATS combined with mini-incision surgery(repair of the diaphragm was performed on 15,controlling intercostal arterial bleeding on 8,repair of the lung on 2,wedge resection of the lung on 2,and coagulated hemothorax removal on 2),the other 3 were converted to open surgery for repairing the diaphragm(3),heart(1),or esophagus(1),or lobectomy(2).Abdominal surgery via the thorax were performed on 13 cases,including repair of the liver in 1,lienectomy in 1,gastrorrhaphy in 1,repair of diaphragmatic hernia in 3,and intra-abdominal exploration in 7.Five patients received open surgery(pancreatic neoplasty in 1,repair of the liver in 1,lienectomy in 1,gastrorrhaphy in 2,and repair of the caul and mesenterium in 3).One patient who had multi-organ penetrating injuries died of hemorrhagic shock,circulatory failure,and DIC after open thoracic and abdominal surgeries.The mean operation time in this series was(125?44)minutes(ranged from 45 to 220),and the mean blood loss was(1089?582)ml(500 to 10 000 ml).Twenty-four hours after the operation,the mean volume of chest drainage was(234?75)ml(100 to 350 ml)in the first 24 hours after the operation.The chest drainage tube was withdrawn 2.5(2 to 5)days postoperation.The patients expelled gas in 1 to 4 days(mean,2 days).Totally,12 patients were followed up for 3 to 12 months(mean,6 months),during which none of them had trauma-related complications.Conclusion VATS combined with mini-incision surgery is safe and effective for patients with thoracoabdominal injuries,if the cases were carefully selected.
