Laboratory diagnostics is one of the most fast developing medical sciences.But the teaching quality falls behind due to the traditional education model.Based on the concept of ‘three-stage fusion' of the subject and ‘five abilities' of the training objects,‘three-highlight & stereo' teaching style was established and put through the course,which means to emphasize function,practice,effect in optimizing teaching content and methods,and construct stereo platform including information system,online course,laboratory equipments,research activities and teacher training program.The results showed a significant improvement of the students' knowledge mastering and utilizing capability.And the teaching situation was well re-created.Furthermore,the teaching team was much more powerful than ever.It suggests that ‘three-highlight and stereo' teaching style is a successful explore and practice of teaching reform of laboratory diagnostics on adapting for internationalization of education tendency.

Objective: To clone human carboxypeptidase A1 and its active center gene as well as construct recombinant vector for expression before analysis their activities. Methods: CPA1 and CPAlactive center gene were amplified by RT-PCR from pancreas tissue, and then sequencing was carried out. The correct target genes were cloned into prokaryotic vector pGEX-4T-1 and transformed into E. coli BL21 before sequence analysis. After induced by IPTG, gene products were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Target expressed proteins were denaturated, renaturated, purified and evaluated through MTT and agar colony form test. Results: Human carboxypeptidase Al and its active center gene were cloned successfully. New expected protein band of Mr 66,000 and 46,000 appeared on SDS-PAGE after inducement. Both of the expressed proteins have catalytic activity in vitro, but the activity of the latter is inferior when applied to tumor cells. Conclusions: Human carboxypeptidase A1 and its active center gene were cloned successfully. Their prokaryotic expression products were obtained too. The expressed proteins have catalytic activity in. vitro. A new prosperous beginning of further improvement for CPA1 therapy system has been established based on CPA1 and its active center gene in terms of ADEPT against prostate cancer to clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the strength of tobacco control at or below county-level governments of Zhejiang Province,to explore the strategies and measures on tobacco control,and promote a smoke-free government.Methods By multistage stratified random sampling method,12 government ageucies were selected in 4 counties.The information of tobacco control strength and smoke-free environment creation was collected by interview and field observation,and the scores were calculated by using the percentage assignment method.An intercept suuvey was carried out in four counties and there were 405 civil servants under investigation.The data were analyzed by frequency statistic and correlation analysis.Results The smoking rate of civil servants was 17.8%,and the secondhand smoking rate was 61.9%;84.7% of civil servants adnmitted the harm of smoking and 96.8% admitted the harm of secondhand smoking.Support for forbidding the cigarette advertisements was highest and increasing the cigarette price was the weakest.The scores of smoke-free environment creation of project counties showed that the average score was 50.60,Zhuji and Luqiao got a maximum score of 57.14,Haiyan got a minimum score of 42.86.The scores of tobacco control strength showed that the average score was 82.35,Zhuji got a maximum score of 92.16,followed by Luqiao,Jiande and Haiyan counties,82.35,80.39 and 74.51 respectively.The scores of tobacco control strength,include policy,political will,capacity,and tobacco control efforts were the highest in Zhuji county.The results of correlation analysis showed that the total score of tobacco control strength had significant association with the score of smoke-free environment creation,smoking rate of civil servants,and approval rate of anti smoking in public places (P<0.05).Conclusion The overall situation of tobacco control strength at or below county-level governments of Zhejiang province is good,but there is a relative shortage of smoke-free environment creation.Civil servants master the knowledge related to tobacco and support tobacco control policy.We should further promote the construction of smoke-free government.More effective smoking control measures should be conducted in order to raise the strength of tobacco control and finally implement the tobacco control legislation.

Objective To explore the determinants of willingness to quit smoking among pre-pregnancy male smokers, and to provide evidence for smoking cessation strategies. Methods An intercept survey was carried out in four cities in Zhejiang, and there were 552 pre-pregnancy male smokers from 1401 newly wedded couples under investigation. Result The pre-pregnancy male smoking rate was 39.82%, and only 6.88%of pre-pregnancy male smokers were categorized as highly nicotine-dependent. The rate of recent willingness to quit smoking was 50.54%, and reasons for quitting were as follows:a planned pregnancy (62.50%), an example for children (47.70%), and objections from family members (45.22%). The tobacco knowledge among pre-pregnancy male smokers is relatively poor, only 49.64% of smokers were aware 8 points in 11 questions; 88.75% of smoker's wives supported their husband to quit smoking. The associated factors of smoking cessation include: tobacco knowledge (OR=0.38), health self-assessment well (OR=1.90), wife's willing for husband to quit smoking (OR=2.87). Conclusion Compared to ordinary people, the proportion of intention to quit smoking was higher in pre-pregnancy male smokers. To strengthen health education and make wife initiating in husband's quitting programs would be more effective.
