Objective:To evaluate the quality of a systematic review/Meta-analysis of auricular acupressure on pain, and provide decision making basis for Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) nursing.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM databases were searched to collect systematic reviews or Meta-analysis on auricular acupressure intervention pain from inception to October, 2020. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted the data, and used AMSTAR 2 and GRADE to evaluate methodological quality and evidence quality.Results:A total of 8 systematic reviews were included. The AMSTAT2 evaluation showed that all the studies were in low methodological quality; GRADE tool graded 26 outcome indicators, including 6 intermediate quality indicators, 16 low-level quality indicatorsand 4 extremely low-level quality indicators. The research results showed that auricular acupressure is safe and effective in chronic low back pain, primary dysmenorrhea and partial postoperative pain. Another study found that it has no significant effect, but it can reduce the rate of adverse reactions.Conclusions:These studies show that auricular acupressure is safe on pain and has certain advantages, but its methodological quality and evidence quality are not high, which requires further research to confirm.

Objective:To explore the application status and development trend of massive open online course (MOOC) in the field of higher medical education in China, so as to provide the reference for future research in this field.Methods:The related literatures collected from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data service platform, VIP database and China Biology Medicine disc were searched from their inception to March 1st, 2020, and the statistical analysis was carried out on the annual volume, journal distribution, fund support, author distribution, cited frequency, literature type and high-frequency keywords by using the bibliometrics method. The extracted data was set up in Excel 2010, and descriptive statistics was made by frequency analysis.Results:The study collected 754 articles, which were included in 262 journals, mainly medical education journals. The funding rate reached 50%. Huang Ping, Zhang Xin, Li Xinhui and seven others were core authors. Basic medical curriculum application research represented by human anatomy was the most. MOOC application research focused on theoretical curriculum. The curriculum evaluation included such five aspects as terminal evaluation, formative evaluation, platform assessment, comprehensive ability and autonomous learning ability. The research focus was the mixed teaching mode based on MOOC and its application in nursing education, traditional Chinese medicine education and continuing medical education.Conclusion:In the past five years, MOOC has developed rapidly in China's higher medical education, and the core authors have formed, but there is a lack of in-depth cooperation. In the future, we should increase the applied research of experimental (training) courses, and further improve the design of experimental research and curriculum evaluation system.
