In order to strengthen the education for university students’all-round devel-opment,and to improve the quality of teaching,Shantou University,by making good use of higher education resources,built a digital campus consisting of virtual classrooms based on advantage of computer and Internet network environment,and plenty of general education programs were carried out.The teaching practice showed that virtual classroom,as a network platform,played an important role in general education programs.

Eighty patients with hyperthyroidism treated in PLA 903 Hospital from February 2016 to May 2017 were randomly divided into two groups with 40 cases in each group.Patients in control group received routine outpatient education and those in study group received regular formatted mobile short message during follow-up in addition to routine education.The knowledge of disease,the compliance and satisfaction of treatment were assessed.After 12 weeks of follow-up,the TSH level was higher [0.430(0.050,2.806) vs.0.210(0.003,1.098) mU/L,Z=-8.07,P<0.01],FT3 [(3.24± 1.18) vs.(4.18±2.07)ng/L,t=-2.49,P< 0.05] and FT4 levels [(12.43±6.82) vs.(19.58±19.06) ng/L,t=-2.26,P<0.05] were lower in study group than those in control group.The scores of disease knowledge (6.12± 1.77 vs.5.25±1.79,t=4.67,P<0.05),the Morisky scores of medication compliance (3.77±0.47 vs.3.37±0.73,t=8.22,P<0.01),the rates of compliance for returning (85% vs.65%,x2=4.27,P<0.05) and the satisfaction rates with treatments (93% vs.75%,x2=3.30,P<0.05) in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group.The score of disease knowledge in study group increased from 4.32± 1.55 before treatment to 6.12± 1.77 after 12 weeks of follow-up (t=22.65,P<0.01).The results indicate that the health education plus regular formatted text message during follow-up can effectively improve the disease knowledge score,the compliance and satisfaction with treatment in patients with hyperthyroidism.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of a booster immunization with a candidate tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid and acellular pertussis combined vaccine (Tdap) in a rat model after primary vaccination with diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis and Sabin strain inactivated poliovirus combined vaccine (DTacP-sIPV) or diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, inactivated poliovirus and haemophilus type b combined vaccine (DTacP-IPV/Hib) for further preclinical study.Methods:Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups and respectively immunized with a self-developed DTacP-sIPV, a marketed DTacP-IPV/Hib and normal saline at 0, 1, and 2 months of age. Serum levels of antibody against each component in each group were detected before immunization and after each dose. A booster dose of the candidate Tdap was given 10 months after primary immunization. Serum levels of antibody against each component in each group were detected before, 1 month and 6 months after the booster immunization.Results:One month after three doses of primary immunization, the geometric mean titers (GMT, Log2) of antibodies against diphtheria toxoid (DT), tetanus toxoid (TT), pertussis toxin (PT), filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and pertactin (PRN) in the DTacP-sIPV group were 17.41, 18.34, 18.11, 19.93 and 13.91, respectively, and the seroconversion rates of these components all reached 100%. Ten months after primary immunization, the GMTs of antibodies against DT, TT, PT, FHA and PRN decreased to 15.17, 14.26, 13.60, 14.51 and 10.39, respectively, and the seroconversion rates remained above 89%. One month after booster immunization, the GMTs of antibodies against DT, TT, PT and FHA in the DTacP-sIPV and DTacP-IPV/Hib groups were 16.49/17.26, 16.80/17.63, 16.70/17.74 and 18.48/19.26, respectively, and the seroconversion rates of these components all reached 100% with no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). The GMTs of anti-PRN antibody in the DTacP-sIPV and DTacP-IPV/Hib groups were 13.07 and 11.00, and the seroconversion rates were 100% and 88%, which were higher in the DTacP-sIPV group than in the DTacP-IPV/Hib group ( P<0.05). Six months after booster immunization, the GMTs of antibodies against DT, TT, PT, FHA and PRN in the DTacP-sIPV and DTacP-IPV/Hib groups decreased to 15.74/14.87, 15.07/15.14, 14.84/15.73, 16.62/16.37 and 11.44/9.96, respectively, and the seroconversion rates remained above 88%. Conclusions:Booster vaccination with the candidate Tdap vaccine induces humoral immune response following primary immunization with DTacP-sIPV or DTacP-IPV/Hib in the Wistar rat model, while the antibody titer decreases with time.
