This paper analyzed the system,methods,content,scope and standards of last two competition in order to further improve the clinical skills competition for national medical students in China.According to the characteristics of medical education,the paper proposed several opinions and suggestions as follows:repechage should be cancelled in competition system and objective structured clinical examination should be used in competition; the content,scope and criteria of the competition should take the actual ability of the medical students at graduation into consideration.

It is very necessary to apply case-teaching method to Emergency Medicine in Universities of TCM. To establish the case-teaching system,we ourselves have written teaching materials,trained teachers, and designed all sorts of the medical records. Moreover, we have deployed other methods and principles to put this teaching into practice, used clinical skill practising as a essential supplement of teaching effect. Comparing with the traditional teaching method, it is clear that case-teaching method could make students' learning initiative and positivity improved significantly, their test scores promoted obviously. Thus, carrying out case-teaching method in Emergency Medicine could advance students capability of acquisition of knowledge and their clinical thinking .

Objective The population structure and ecological distribution of endophytic fungi in Changium smyrnioides from the different habitats and growing phases,and the effects of fungal elicitor on the cell biomass and polysaccharide accumulation were studied in this paper.Methods The isolation,culture,and identification of microorganism,and plant cell suspension culture technology were adopted;And relative data were analyzed by the statistical methods.Results In four producing areas,116 strains were isolated and classified into eight genera.The dominant populations were Fusarium LK.ex FR.,Geotrichum LK.,and Alternaria Nees.The population structure of endophytic fungi obviously changed at the different growing phases.Species and quantity of endophytic fungi were plentiful at the seedling stage and bud stage,and especially at the bud stage the isolation rate and isolation frequency were more than 30% and 19%,respectively.Some endophytic fungi had the obvious area and tissue specificity.Compared with the control by adding the elicitor of Fusarium sp.3,the yields of cell biomass and polysaccharide were increased to 31.86% and 38.01%,respectively.Conclusion Endophytic fungi in C.smyrnioides have abundant biodiversity.And there is close relationship between the population structure and distribution of endophytic fungi with ecological conditions.And fungal elicitors could obviously enhance the yields of cell biomass and polysaccharide of C.smyrnioides.

This paper describes the administrative structure of the health system and its basic characters in Tai-wan province, and focus on the analysis of the main approaches and characteristics of the health system planning and management:“Taiwan’s health care network plan” was used to allocate the health resources reasonably; the health insurance system and “The Hospital Accreditation” were combined to regulate the behavior of the medical institu-tions;the form of public/government hosted and private running” was used to improve the efficiency of the public hospitals;the public and private hospitals were treated equally by the government to promote the private to invest in the hospital;and the public hospitals were managed strictly. Then we proposed several implications from the practices of Taiwan for our country in strengthening health care system planning and management.

Objective To investigate the expression and correlation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1?(HIF-1?),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and sFlt-1 in the preeclampsia placenta,and discuss their significance in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.Methods Placentas were collected from 20 pregnant women with preeclampsia as study group and 15 normal pregnant women as control group.The expressions of HIF-1?,VEGF and sFlt-1 protein were semi-quantitatively analyzed with immunohistochemical assay and mRNA level was determined using reverse transcription polymerasc chain reaction(RT-PCR)technique. Results(1)the expression of HIF-1?and sFlt-1 protein in preeclampsia group obviously increased.Strong (+++)positive expression was observed in 9 and 11 cases respectively,significantly higher than in control group(2 and 3 cases)(P＜0.05),however,VEGF expression obviously reduced in preeclampsia group(P＜0.01).(2)the level of HIF-1?and sFlt-1 mRNA in preeclamptic placenta was 0.604?0.013, 0.898?0.041,significantly higher than 0.208?0.007 and 0.559?0.244 in normal placenta(P＜0.05). Although the level of VEGF mRNA increased in preeclampsia placenta,it was not significantly different from that in normal placenta(P＞0.05).The ratio of VEGF mRNA/sFlt-1 mRNA obviously reduced in preeclampsia group and was significantly lower than in control group(P＜0.05).(3)in preeclampsia group,HIF-1?mRNA expression was positively correlated with the expression of sFlt-1 mRNA(r=0.577, P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with the ratio of VEGF mRNA/sFlt-1 mRNA(r=-0.376,P＜0.05).Conclusion Abnormal high HIF-1?expression in preeclampsia placenta indicates that HIF-1?might play an important role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia,possibly through affecting the cytotrophoblastic invasion and placental vascular reconstruction via the modulation of VEGF and sFlt-1 gene transcription.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Chinese medicine and pharmacy (CMP) on the mortality of senile HIV/AIDS patients as adjunctive therapy.

METHODSHIV/AIDS patients of a certain rural area of Hanna Province, who were recruited in national CMP HIV treatment trial program (NTCMTP) in 2004, were enrolled as the CMP treatment group. HIV/AIDS patients in the same village without recruiting in NTCMTP were enrolled as the non-CMP treatment group. Data related to subjects were collected from the database of NTCMTP and National HAART Reporting System. Multiple regression analysis under Cox proportional hazard model was applied to examine the risk factors for death of senile HIV/AIDS patients.

RESULTSA total of 436 HIV/AIDS were enrolled in this study, 204 in the CMP treatment group and 232 in the non-CMP treatment group. There were 70 AIDS-relative deaths in the CMP treatment group, with 8-year mortality rate of 37.74%. There were 111 AIDS-relative deaths in the non-CMP treatment group, with 8-year mortality rate of 48.34%. The 8-year mortality rate was higher in the non-CMP treatment group than in the CMP treatment group (chi2 = 5.136, P < 0.05). Results of univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed the hazard ratio in the non-CMP treatment group was 1.41 times that of the CMP treatment group (P < 0.05). Result of multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed the hazard ratio in the non-CMP treatment group was 1.44 times that of the CMP treatment group (P < 0.05). Besides, gender and marital conditions were significantly associated with death of HIV/AIDS patients.

CONCLUSIONCMP treatment was favorable to lower the mortality rate of senile HIV/AIDS patients, and its objective evaluation awaits for further prospective study.
