1.Causes and solutions for shortage of pediatricians in China
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2016;32(4):312-313
Shortage of pediatricians in China and its causes are analyzed,which is contributed to more causes than one.Namely,the cancellation of the pediatrics specialist education from medical schools by the Ministry of Education since 1 998,cancellation of pediatrics as a discipline by hospitals for its poor rate of return,high career risks for the pediatricians,and career promotion difficulties as well.The author suggested such solutions as resuming pediatrics as an independent department in medical schools,better pay,less academic demands on their publication of research papers as a rigid criterion for promotion, attraction of social investment,strengthening multi-site license practice to push up supply of high quality pediatricians,and raising social prestige of pediatricians.All the measures will help fill the gap of supply and demand of pediatricians by joint efforts by both the government and hospitals.

6.Study of the micro-teaching to improve the medical university physiological teachers' teaching skills
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2016;15(8):862-864
At present,most of the physiological teachers of medical university in our country have graduated from medical universities,and have never been trained by special teachers.Because of the influence of medical education training mode and cultural environment factors,teachers' teaching ability and teaching level are different.This paper proposed the full range of skills training for teachers through microteaching.To enhance the in-service teachers' teaching ability and professional level of development,the design procedures of the microteaching training should include the establishment of tutor teaching system,training teachers preparing lessons,after-school peer experts review,self-evaluation and improvement of the video after watching video and questionnaire evaluation,etc.
7.The relationship between mine environment and hypertension in coal miners
Chinese Journal of Internal Medicine 2008;47(8):661-663
Objective To investigate the relationship between mine environment and hypertension in miners. Methods 1736 male miners who worked under the ground and 825 on the ground were recruited in this study. Prevalence of hypertension under the ground and on the ground miners was compared. Results Prevalence of hypertension of miners under the ground was 23.91% and on the ground was 15.52% (χ2 = 23.56,P <0.001 ). Compared to miners on the ground, the relative risk of hypertension under the ground workers was 1.71 (95% CI 1.38 - 2.13 ). Prevalence of hypertension was correlated to the years of ground working (χ2 = 37.00, P < 0.001 ). The binary logistic regression showed significant relationship between mine environment and hypertension under the ground miners ( OR = 1.05,95% CI 1.02 - 1.08 ).Conclusion The underground environment is an important risk factor hypertension to the miners.

Thanks to such perspectives as technology continued acceptance and cross-organizational knowledge sharing,and review of existing literature and practice,the authors found the existing literature,both domestic and overseas,with the following shortcomings.In theory,there is little study on the telemedicine continued-acceptance behavior and cross-organizational knowledge sharing model; in methodology,there is little empirical study to build the telemedicine continued acceptance behavior model; in practice,there is little study on the telemedicine service management model in China's medical context.Based on such findings,the authors hold that subsequent studies may proceed individually and organizationally to study the continued acceptance model of telemedicine service users and cross-organizational coordination model of medical institutions.It also proposed countermeasures to optimize China's telemedicine sector.
