Objective:To understand suicide prevention knowledge, suicide attitude and related factors among undergraduates in Changsha.Methods:Using multistage stratified cluster sampling, a total of 1664 undergraduates from six universities in Changsha were tested with Suicide Awareness Questionnaire, Suicide Attitude Questionnaire (QSA), Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Check List (ASLEC), Social Support Questionnaire (SSQ) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90). Results:The mean score of suicide awareness among undergraduates was 10.8?0.9 and the correct response rate was 54.5%. The result of suicide awareness score showed, female undergraduates had a lower score than males (9.2?0.8, 12.3?0.8;t=2.33, P=0.020), medical undergraduates had a higher score than ones of humanities and social science or engineering (13.9?0.8, 10.0?1.0, 9.7?0.7;F=10.47, P=0.000), undergraduates from one-child families had a higher score than ones from non-one-child families (11.9?0.7, 9.1?0.9;t=3.25, P=0.034), and college students from nuclear family had a higher score than ones from extended families or one-parent families (14.0?0.9, 10.3?0.8, 9.4?0.7;F=7.49, P=0.000). The major factors related to suicide awareness were gender, specialty and family type (?=0.087, 0.342 and 0.084, respectively). And the major factors related to attitude towards attributes of suicide behaviors were specialty, gender, suicide ideation and mental health status (?=0.688, -0.055, 0.810 and 0.731, respectively). Conclusions:College students in Changsha have severe misunderstands about suicide prevention. It is necessary to pay more attention to the education of suicide knowledge and to cultivate the correct suicide attitude among college students.

OBJECTIVE:To reduce the types of drugs which was not consistent with the accounts in monthly checking of out-patient department,reduce the wastage of dismounted drugs and improve dismounted drug management. METHODS:Through qual-ity control circle(QCC),analyzing the reasons for inconformity of accounts and drugs,adopting relevant countermeasures of staff training,cipher prescription,counter storage,managed by designated person,expiry data management and so on,the process of dismounted drug management was formulated and implemented. The types of drugs which was not consistent with the accounts and activity growth value of circle members were analyzed statistically before,during and after QCC. RESULTS:The types of drugs which was not consistent with the accounts were 33.6,21.2 and 13.6 before,during and after QCC,decreasing by 59.5%. The ac-tivity growth value of circle members were all positive value. CONCLUSIONS:QCC of outpatient pharmacy can effectively reduce the types of drugs which is not consistent with the accounts in monthly checking,standardize dismounted drug management and im-prove pharmaceutical care quality.

Objective To investigate clinical characteristics of tuberous sclerosis(TSC)without nervous system abnormalities in infants. Methods Clinical manifestations of 12 infants with TSC were analyzed. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM)was performed in 5 of the 12 infants. Two patients underwent histopathological examination and electron microscopic examination. Results The age at first clinic visit for TSC ranged from 2 to 18 months (median, 8.6 months)among these patients. Before occurrence of nervous symptom, TSC mainly manifested as hypomelanotic macules, nodules in the subependymal layer or walls of lateral ventricles of the brain, cardiac rhabdomyoma and multiple renal cysts. RCM revealed intact dermal papillary rings with low reflectivity and obscure boundaries in 5 infants. Histopathological examination showed a local decrease in melanocytes and pigment granules in basal cells. Electron microscopic examination showed a normal number of melanin granules in the cytoplasm of melanocytes in the basal layer. Conclusions Before appearance of nervous system abnormalities, TSC mainly manifests as hypomelanotic macules in infants, and is easily confused with vitiligo in clinic. RCM examination may serve as a useful method to distinguish infant TSC from hypopigmented diseases.

AIM: To determine the effect of suction duration on thickness and diameter of corneal flap created by microkeratome in porcine eyes in laser in situ kerato-mileusis (LASIK).METHODS: Sixty porcine eyes were randomly assigned to three groups according to different suction durations: group 1 (10 seconds), group 2 (20 seconds), and group 3 (30 seconds). A Moria M2 microkeratome (Moria, France) with a 160μm head was used to create a corneal flap. Corneal flap thickness was measured by automated ultrasonic pachymetry, and the flap diameter was measured by a vernier caliper.RESULTS: The flap thickness of group 1, group 2 and group 3 was 146.05±13.46μm, 157.35±18.95μm and 169.25±21.02μm, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference among three groups (P=0.001). The mean flap diameter in groups 1, 2 and 3 was 8.63±0.19mm, 8.89±0.24mm and 9.06±0.18mm, respectively. A statisti-cally significant difference was found among groups (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: In LASIK in porcine eyes, an increase in suction duration resulted in a thicker and greater flap.

Objective To investigate the effect of PBL combined with EBM applied in the teaching of fever of unknown origin. Methods PBL combined with EBM teaching was applied in fever of unknown origin course for 30 clinical medicine specialty(eight years) students of Tongji class of grade 2009(experiment group), while PBL teaching was applied in fever of unknown origin course for 30 clinical medicine specialty (eight years) students of Tongji class of grade 2008 (control group). After teaching, the theory examination for both basic knowledge and case analysis was organized for all students of both groups. At the same time the questionnaire survey was conducted to 30 students of grade 2009 to evaluate the teaching effect. The results were assessed by using SPSS 18.0 statistical software for the T-test of the experimental group and the control group.Inspection level was α=0.05. Results The theory test score of students in the experimental group was (93.5±3.2) point, signifi-cantly higher than that of the students in the control group(84.7±2.8). There was statistically signifi-cant difference between the scores of the two groups of students (P=0.00). Survey results showed 19 students ( 63 . 33%) thought that the development of PBL teaching combined with evidence-based medicine teaching had its necessity, and 16 students(53.33%) thought that the teaching method im-proved their clinical thinking ability of logical reasoning. Conclusion The concept of PBL combined with EBM has achieved significant resultsinthe teaching offever of unknown origin, and it is necessary to carry out this teaching mode in medical colleges with certain teaching strength.

Objective To investigate the infection sites,the offending species,diagnosis and prognosis of deep fungal infections (DFI) in patients with systemic lupus erythcmatosus (SLE).Methods Fifty-one patients with fungal infections in 1466 SLE patients admitted to Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) Hospital from 2000 to 2006 were reviewed retrospectively.Results Candida albicans was ranked the first pathogen,followed by ncoformans and Aspergillus species.The infection sites were lungs,cerebral meninges and blood in the order of prevalence.The overall mortality was 20%(10/51).Aspergillasis carried the highest mortality which couht be as high as 80%.Hypoproteinemia,multiple focus of fungal infections,Aspergillasis and fungemia might he the independent risk factor for mortality.Conclusion Candida albicans is the most frequent species of fungal infections in SLE patients.Iungs are the most prevalent location of infection.Earlier diagnosis is important.Special attention should be paid to aspergillasis.

BACKGROUND: Ilioinguinal approach and modified Stoppa approach are commonly used to treat pelvic and acetabular fractures, but which one is safer and more effective remains controversial, so a meta-analysis is necessary.OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.METHODS: A computer-based retrieval of Cochrane library, PubMed, Embase, OVID, CNKI, WanFang, CBM and VIP databases was performed for the randomized controlled trials concerning modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures published before October 2016. Meta-analysis was performed on RevMan5.3 software.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Finally 11 randomized controlled trials were enrolled, including 722 patients. (2) Meta-analysis showed that the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of incision, volume of drainage and hospitalization time in the modified Stoppa approach group were significantly less than those in the ilioinguinal approach group (P < 0.05), and the clinical efficacy in the modified Stoppa approach group was significantly superior to that in the ilioinguinal approach group (P < 0.05). But there were no significant differences in Matta scores and postoperative complications between two groups (P > 0.05). (3) To conclude, modified Stoppa approach is safer and more effective for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.
