With the rapid development of medical science,‘ faithfulness,expressiveness and elegancy' theory has been endued with novel implications and can guide the translation of medical English.A translation of medical English with high quality should contain faithful information,grammatically complete sentences and understandable words as well as maintain the stylistic features of Chinese abstract,which lead to the speciality and rigour of the article.The guiding role of ‘ faithfulness,expressiveness and elegancy' theory in the understanding and translation of English papers was discussed in this article with common problems selected from medical journals.Several suggestions were proposed to the translators of medical English on the practice of the theory.

Objective:To compare the detection success rates (DSRs) of different kinds of near-infrared spectrum non-invasive hemoglobin monitors in high-altitude environments.Methods:One hundred and forty-four healthy volunteers of either sex, aged 18-50 yr, were assigned to one of 3 groups using a random number table method: simulated high-altitude 3 500 meter group ( n=35), 4 000 meter group ( n=55) and 4 500 meter group ( n=54). Hemoglobin was detected by Radical-7, NW-9002SHM, A5 and TensorTip MTX type hemoglobin monitors in plain environment and simulated environment at different altitudes, and the DSRs were compared.Logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify the risk factors affecting the success rate of instrument detection, and the cut-off value was determined by ROC curve and the Youden index. Results:In the simulated high-altitude environment of 3500, 4000 and 4500 m, the DSR of TensorTip MTX was significantly higher than that of Radical-7, NW-9002SHM and A5 ( P<0.001), and there was no significant difference in the DSR among Radical-7, NW-9002SHM and A5 ( P>0.05). Low SpO 2 was the main factor affecting the DSRs of the Radical-7, NW-9002SHM and A5 type hemoglobin monitor in high-altitude environment ( P<0.001), and the cut-off value of SpO 2 in determining the success of detection was 88.5%, 87.5% and 89.5%, respectively.The DSR of TensorTip MTX was not affected by low SpO 2. Conclusions:The DSR of TensorTip MTX hemoglobin monitor is minimally affected by the high-altitude environment and can be preferred in the absence of oxygen supply; when Radical-7, NW-9002SHM or A5 hemoglobin monitor applied in high-altitude environments, oxygen saturation needs to be increased to ensure a high DSR.

Objective: To explore the application effect of mixed reality technology in the teaching of hepatobiliary surgery. Methods: A total of 120 professional postgraduates majored in surgery who had received the four-month standardized training of residents in hepatobiliary surgery department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University during 2016-2018 were selected and were equally allocated into the control group and the research group via random number table method. Students in the control group were trained with traditional surgical teaching mode and in the research group were trained with three-dimensional visualization model which was constructed by mixed reality. Students in both groups received assessment and questionnaires at the end of training. Results: Scores of theoretical examination and surgical operation assessment of students in the research group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The error rate for separating gallbladder artery and bile duct in the laparoscopic simulated system of students in the research group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Students-teacher satisfaction degree in the research group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Using mixed reality technology to construct a three-dimensional visualization model and to implement hepatobiliary surgery teaching enables the trainees to better master anatomical key points in the hepatobiliary system and the hepatobiliary surgical approach, with good feedback.
