Methods Class Three of Optometry 2011 was chosen as experimental group and used the new project integrated teaching method while Class Four was chosen as control group and used traditional teaching method , both class having 30 students. After the end of the course the students of both class were assessed the theoretical knowledge and operating skills of the same standard. The self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate stu-dents' self evaluation of the teaching effect. After students of both groups practiced in the same depart-ment of ophthalmology optometry clinic special inspection post for half a year, teachers' evaluation of the students' training performance was collected. Final examination scores, experimental examination scores and the teachers' evaluation scores of the two groups were compared by t-test respectively and the self-assessment results of the students of both groups were compared by chi-square test. Results The final examination and experimental examination scores of the experimental group were both higher than those of the control group significantly(P=0.001,0.002 respectively). The experimental group students had a significantly better self-assessment than the control group in learning interest ( P=0.007), understanding(P=0.046), self-learning ability(P=0.000), summary ability(P=0.009), ana-lytical ability(P=0.000) and innovation ability(P=0.000). The clinical teachers' evaluations of the ex-perimental group were better than the control group. The differences were statistically significant in standardization of practice, application ability, examination report reading ability and case analytical ability(P=0.000). Conclusion The project-integrated teaching method can help to improve the students' leaning motivation and cultivate students' autonomous learning ability and comprehensive analysis capa-bility and so on, which is helpful to reaching a good teaching effect and ensuring the teaching quality.

Objective To explore the correlation between heart rate recovery after exercise test and disease severity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and assess its impact on the exercise capacity of COPD patients.Methods Arterial blood gas analysis, pulmonary lung function test and cardiopulmonary exercise testing were performed in 60 patients with stable COPD and 50 healthy volunteers.Based on the heart rate recovery after exercise test, COPD patients were divided into normal heart rate recovery group(n =41)and abnormal heart rate recovery group(n =19).Results The COPD patients had lower exercise capacity(peak oxygen uptake as percentage of predicted value, peak VO2% pred)(66 ± 15vs.89±11, P<0.01), peak heart rate [(134±21)vs.(149±13)beats/min, P<0.01], heart rate recovery[(18 ± 9)vs.(27 ± 10)beats/min, P < 0.01] and higher resting heart rate [(83 ± 13)vs.(77 ± 13)beats/min, P <0.01] than the controls.Compared with normal heart rate recovery group, forced expiratory volume in one second as percentage of predicted(FEV1 % pred)and exercise capacity decreased more significantly in abnormal heart rate recovery group(38 ± 15 vs.52 ± 16, P<0.05 and 57 ± 12 vs.71 ±14, P <0.01).Heart rate recovery was significantly correlated with FEV1% pred and peak V O2% pred(r=0.42, P < 0.01 and r =0.52, P < 0.01).Multivariate regression analysis showed that heart rate recovery and FEV1 % pred could be used as independent predictors of exercise capacity in COPD patients.Conclusion In COPD patients, heart rate recovery is correlated with the degree of disease severity and it may be an independent predictor of exercise capacity.
