Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2006;0(07):-
Medical English teaching plays an important part in medical college,but due to various factors of constraints,medical English teaching is still in the traditional"teacher-centered" teaching mode.The authors have carried out some research and exploration on how to construct the "student-centered" teaching mode in medical English teaching based on their own practice,and made some positive comments and suggestions.

Objective To investigate the serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS),and make a primary relative study on the relationship between VEGF and pH.Methods Thirty-nine patients with mild to moderate OSAHS,36 patients with severe OSAHS and 18 healthy snorers who had been admitted to the First Hospital Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical College from Feb.2003 to Sep.2004 were enrolled in this study.The serum levels of VEGF were detected in all patients at 7:00 AM the next day after the detection of polysomnography(PSG).Additionally 31 patients with OSAHS were detected by doppler echocardiography to get the values of pulmonary artery pression.Results There was nocturnal hypoxia in patients with OSAHS compared with healthy snorers,and the degree of nocturnal hypoxia was depended with the grade of OSAHS(both achieved statistical difference)by the detection of PSG.The levels of VEGF was significantly higher in patients with severe OSAHS than in healthy snorers(P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the antimicrobial resistances of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from patients with lower respiratory infection in intensive care unit(ICU),so as to provide reasonable selections for antibiotic in clinical treatment.METHODS The phlegm specimens from ICU inpatients with lower respiratory tract infection were collected from 2004 to 2007,and drug sensitivity test was performed according to NCCLS standards.RESULTS Gram-negative bacilli were accounted for 75.2% of total strains.The most predominant pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(42.7%),Acinetobacter baumannii(16.3%),Sternotrophomonas maltophilia(10.4%),Escherichia coli(10.0%),and Klebsiella pneumoniae(6.7%).The prevalence of ESBLs in E.coli and K.pneumoniae increased from 54.5% and 37.5 % in 2004 to 65.6 % and 52.7% in 2007.ESBLs non-producing strains showed lower resistance rates to the aminoglycosides,quinolones and the third and fourth generation cephalosporin than those of ESBLs producing strains.Nonfermentative Gram-negative bacilli were very highly resistant to most antimicrobial agents.CONCLUSIONS The drug resistance rates of Gram-negative bacilli of lower respiratory tract are serious.It is important to investigate the antimicrobial resistances of pathogenic bacteria and rationally use of antibiotics.

Objective To analyze and compare the characteristics and differences of corneal endothelial cells of rhesus monkey and tree shrew eyes.Methods Corneal endothelial cells of 6 healthy rhesus monkeys (12 eyes) and 20 healthy tree shrews (40 eyes) were measured using a non-contact SP3000P specular microscope.Eight parameters were de-termined and compared with relevant parameters of human eyes reported in the literature, including minimum cell area (Smin), maximum cell area (Smax), average cell area (Savg), standard deviation of cell area (SD), coefficient of variabili-ty ( CV) , cell density ( CD) , hexagonality percentage ( HG%) and central corneal thickness ( CCT) .Results The ima-ging and measurement of all parameters could be completed in a short time both in rhesus monkeys and tree shrews.The time spent in the two kinds of animals was not significantly different.The CCT was ( 449.2 ±12.8 ) μm and ( 262.4 ± 24.6) μm, Smin was (120.4 ±26.3) S/μm2 and (153.2 ±42.9) S/μm2 , Smax was (705.0 ±130.8) S/μm2 and (468.7 ±109.3) S/μm2 , Savg was (351.1 ±26.1) and (295.4 ±18.9) S/μm2 , SSD was (113.1 ±27.4) and (75.9 ±27.3) S/μm2, CV was (31.9 ±6.0) and (25.3 ±8.3), CD was (2874.2 ±203.8) p/cell· mm-2 and (3399.3 ±224.7) p/cell· mm-2 , and the HG% was (58.6 ±9.1) and (94.0 ±9.7) in the rhesus monkeys andt tree shrews, respectively. The differences of all the above parameters between rhesus monkeys and tree shrews were statistically significant ( P<0.05 for all) .The cornea of tree shrews was significantly thinner than that of rhesus monkeys.The area and coefficient of varia-bility of tree shrews were smaller to those of rhesus monkeys, while the cell density and hexagonality percentage were higher than those of rhesus monkeys.Compared with human eyes, the CCT, CV and HG%in rhesus monkeys were highly simi-lar, while the CD was lower than that of human eyes.The CCT in tree shrew was only 60%of the rhesus monkey eyes and 50%of human eyes, while the CD and Savg were similar to that of human eyes in the 10-20 years old group.Conclu-sions The morphology and parameters of corneal endothelial cells in rhesus monkeys and tree shrews are significantly dif-ferent.There are similarities and differences among the human, rhesus monkey and tree shrew corneal endothelial cells. Both rhesus monkeys and tree shrews are appropriate experimental animals feasible for researches on human corneal endo-thelial diseases.

Objective To investigate the peroxide effects of iodide excess on mitochondria in Fischer rat thyroid cell line(FRTL) in the early period.Methods After treatment with 0.0 mmol/L(control group) or 0.1 mmol/L potassium iodide(KI) for 2,4 and 24 h,respectively,changes of mitochondrial superoxide formation were assayed by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy using mitochondria-targeted hydroethidine(MitoSOX).The cytochrome c (cyt c) released from mitochondria to cytoplasm was detected by immunocytochemistry.The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) released into supernatant was measured by a LDH kit using colorimetry.The percent of dead cells was assayed by flow cytometry using propidium iodide (PI).DNA with loading buffer was separated in 1% agarose gel.Results Mitochondrial superoxide production in FRTL cells treated with 0.1 mmol/L KI was increased at 2; 4 and 24 h,especially at 2 h.The rates of cyc c protein immunity positive cells at 2,4 and 24 h in 0.1 mmol/L KI group were (35.3 ± 3.6)%,(45.8 ± 5.5)% and (30.3 ± 6.1)%,respectively,which were significantly higher than that in control group[(14.8 ± 1.2)%,all P < 0.05].The LDHs released into supernatant at 2,4 and 24 h in 0.1 mmol/L KI group were (1.85 ± 0.32),(6.63 ± 0.42) and (8.35 ± 0.34)U/mg,and these values at 4 and 24 h in 0.1 mmol/L KI group were significantly higher than that of control group[(0.89 ± 0.04)U/mg,all P < 0.05].After incubation with 0.1 mmol/L KI for 2,4 and 24 h,the percentages of dead FRTL cells were 7.52%,9.29% and 13.71%,respectively,while that of control group was 4.66%.After FRTL cells were treated with 0.1 mmol/L KI for 24 h,DNA ladder appeared.Conclusion Iodide excess (0.1 mmol/L) can cause mitochondrial peroxide injury in FRTL cells at 2 h and cell apoptosis at 24 h.

Objective To estimate the 10-year risk of coronary heart disease in patients with psoriasis,and to determine whether the risk profile is affected by disease duration,family history and clinical types of psoriasis.Methods Data were pooled from 322 inpatients with psoriasis and 297 inpatients with other skin diseases (151 cases of acute urticaria,33 drug eruption,113 herpes zoster) from December 2008 to December 2010 in the Department of Dermatology,West China Hospital of Sichuan University.Risks of coronary heart disease were estimated by using the Framingham risk score algorithm.Wilcoxon rank test,Kruskal-Wallis test and chi-square tests were used to evaluate the differences in risks and risk factors between the patients with psoriasis and controls.Results As far as the Framingham 10-year risk score was concerned,the difference was statistically significant between the patients with psoriasis and the control population (6% vs.4%,Z =4.342,P =0.000),as well as between patients with different clinical types of psoriasis (6% for psoriasis vulgaris vs.4% for pustular psoriasis vs.7% for psoriasis arthropathica vs.7% for erythroderma psoriaticum,H =8.484,P < 0.05),but was insignificant between patients with familial and sporadic psoriasis (6% vs.6%,Z =0.406,P > 0.05 ).No correlation was observed between the Framingham 10-year risk and psoriasis duration (P > 0.05 ).Conclusions Increased risks of coronary heart disease exist in patients with psoriasis compared with those with acute urticaria,drug eruption or hepers zoster,and in patients with psoriasis arthropathica or erythroderma psoriaticum compared with those with pustular psoriasis.The Framingham 10-year risk of coronary heart disease is uncorrelated with disease duration and unaffected by family history of psoriasis.
