Objective To study the relativity between pathology and CT diagnosis and CT classified types of the golioma of the brain.Methods Seventy cases of golioma confirmed by CT diagnosis and pathology by way of non-contrast CT scanning and enhanced scans were analysed in comparison the results of the pathology and CT appearances.Results (1)The accuracy rate of CT diagnosis was 85.7%;(2)having pointed out the CT classified types of the golioma of the brain a acording of CT appearances comibined with shape.Type Ⅰ was(low-tensity,non-enhancement types)16 cases,which can be only seen in Ⅰ and Ⅱ grade of astrocytoma oligodendroglioma,and the latter was often characterized by bending stripe-like calcification or cluster dot-like calcification,both of which occupy 33% of the total (3/9).Type Ⅱ was (ring-like enhanced patterns)13 cases,which often appeared in Ⅱ?Ⅲ?Ⅳ grade astrocytoma,charactenied by parietal-node which took up 53.8%(7/13).The pathology changes were mainly caused by the internal neceosis and a few by cystic changes.Type Ⅲ(nodular or mass-like enhancement) in 31 cases revealed by various types of goliomsas,which were typical CT appearances of medulloblastoma and ependymoma.Type Ⅳ(mixed types)in 10 cases had showed the CT appearances of malignant goliomas.(3)The results indicate that no or slight edema and mass effect as well as intensification were mainly seen in Ⅰ and Ⅱ grade astrocytomas,Ⅲ and Ⅳ grade astrocytomas were classified as the less serious and the serious both of which had distinctive differences.(4)Analyse the CT appearances of brain golioma in terms of tumor cytology had provided the pathology evidences for CT classified patterns.Conclusion CT appearances and CT classified patterns can reflect some pathologie characteristics and provide an important reference for astrocytoma pathology grading.

OBJECTIVE To construct a double helix model for evaluating the job competency of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies, and to provide a reference for building a talented team of licensed pharmacists and promoting the high-quality development of pharmaceutical care. METHODS Based on the competency iceberg model and double helix structure theory, literature analysis and the Delphi method were adopted to explore the model indicators; questionnaires were designed to survey licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies from Shandong Province. The exploratory factor analysis was used to correct the model indicators and establish a double helix model for evaluating the job competency of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies, which was examined by validation factor analysis. RESULTS The recovery rate of the questionnaires in the two rounds of expert consultation was greater than 90%, the expert authority coefficients were both more than 0.86, and the overall Kendall’s W values were 0.288 and 0.510, respectively; after the correction of the exploratory factor analysis, the double helix model for evaluating the job competency of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies was established, which contained 4 first-level indexes such as occupational literacy, occupational knowledge, occupational competency and internal motivation, and 23 second-level indexes. The model contained occupational knowledge and occupational competency in the explicit competency chain, occupational literacy and internal motivation in the implicit competency chain, and policy support, incentive mechanism, education and training as the hydrogen bonds connecting the two main chains. The validation factor analysis showed that the model’s goodness of fit index, comparative fit index, and normed fit index all exceeded 0.9; the reliability of the combination of the four first-level indexes ranged from 0.89 to 0.95; the average variance extracted ranged from 0.58 to 0.75, and Cronbach’s α coefficients for both the overall model and the first-level indicators were all greater than 0.84. CONCLUSIONS The constructed double helix model for evaluating the job competency of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies is scientific, reasonable and practical.
