Toinvestigate the implementation mode and effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in experimental teaching of physiology,PBL was applied in experimental teaching of circulatory physiology. Comparison of test scores and Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) were used to evaluate teaching quality and teaching environment respectively. The results showed that both test and DREEM scores were higher in PBL group than in control group (P

Objective To explore the effects of integrated treatment model (psychosocial interventions combined with drug therapy) in schizophrenia and analyze the influence of medication attitude on treatment compliance and psychiatric symptoms in different intervention models.Methods A total of 170 patients with schizophrenia were enrolled from 2012 to 2015.Patients were randomly divided into two groups:the integrated treatment group (86 patients) with drug therapy and psychosocial intervention,and the conventional drug treatment group (84 patients) with only drug intervention.Dug attitude inventory (DAI),self-awareness inventor (SAI),positive and negative symptoms scale (PANSS) were used to assess medication attitude,treatment compliance and clinical psychotic symptoms for all patients in the following 3 months,6 months and 12 months.Results Compared with medication-alone group,the integrated treatment group achieved significant improvement in psychiatric symptoms,including positive symptom and general psychopathology as well as significant reduction in scores in DAI and SAI (P<0.05).In the conventional drug treatment group,the PANSS score was positively correlated with the increased score of DAI (β=0.31,P=0.02),which was mediated by the improvement in treatment adherence (β=0.18,P=0.18).There was no significant correlation between PANSS score and the increase score of DAI in the integrated treatment group(P=0.62).However,the increased score of SAI was positively correlated with the positive symptom of PANSS scale (r=0.31,P=0.01) and with the general psychiatric symptom scale (r=0.36,P<0.01).Conclusion This study demonstrates that medication attitude can improve the treatment of mental symptoms by increasing compliance in the medication-only group.Symptom improvement is associated with improved compliance but not with medication attitudes in the integrated treatment model.

Objective:To investigate the biomechanical properties of a new pediatric femoral neck system in the fixation of pediatric femoral neck fractures with a free fracture fragment.Methods:Ten Sawbones model bones were randomly divided into 2 even groups ( n=5), all of which were made into Delbet Type Ⅱ femoral neck fractures with a Pauwels angle of 70°. A free bone block was removed from the bottom at the proximal end of the fracture to simulate a femoral neck fracture with a free fragment. Group A were fixed with traditional inverted triangle cannulated screws, and group B with a new pediatric femoral neck system. After the 2 groups of specimens were placed on a biomechanical testing machine, each specimen was subjected to a static axial compression test, an anti-torsion test and a cyclic load test in turn. The biomechanical results were compared between groups A and B in aspects of axial compression stiffness, torsional stiffness and maximum displacement difference. Results:The axial compression stiffness [(321.718±5.770) N/mm] and torsional rigidity [(1.448±0.079) N·m/°] in group B were significantly higher than those in group A [(266.722±4.788) N/mm and (1.282±0.023) N·m/°] ( P<0.05). The maximum displacement difference in the cyclic load test in group B [(0.063±0.038) mm] was also significantly smaller than that in group A [(0.117±0.056) mm] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In fixation of pediatric femoral neck fractures with a free fracture fragment, the new pediatric femoral neck system can lead to better biomechanical stability than the traditional inverted triangle cannulated screws.
