Objective To establish a short-term scenario simulation training campus in senior med-ical students before graduation for the sake of a smooth transformation from medical students to residents. Methods There were 101 participants involved in the study . All the participants attended emergency medicine traditional teaching, including 51 fourth-year medical students and 50 fifth-year medical students. The 48 students who took the emergency scenario simulation training course were classified as training camp group while the other 53 students were classified as control group. The control group only participated in the emergency medicine traditional teaching, and the training camp group participated in the emergency sce-nario simulation training course on the basis of control group's routine teaching, including advanced cardiac life support and team collaboration, sepsis and doctor-patient communication, polypnea and crisis manage-ment, disorder of consciousness and interdisciplinary teamwork, multiple injuries and emergency plans, and comprehensive case evaluation. The training camp group was divided into groups and received evaluation of performance on treating emergency simulated case (clinical skills, teamwork, doctor-patient communication) before and after class. The training camp group was received questionnaire survey after class. SAS 9.2 was used to do the t test and descriptive analysis. Results There were no statistically significant differences (P>0.05) between the scores of the performance on clinical skills, teamwork, doctor-patient communication of training camp group and control group before class. The scores of training camp group after class were sig-nificantly better than those of control group (P<0.05). In addition, the course had a high recognition by students. 92% (44/48) students thought the course was contributed to improving the ability of crisis man-agement and clinical practice and were in favor of developing similar courses for senior medical students. Conclusion Scenario simulation training campus can strengthen the cultivation of medical students' com-prehensive thinking, independent clinical decision making, practice skills and communication ability in the final stage of medical education as well as enhancing their self-confidence so as to help them to adapt to the real clinical work.

Objective To investigate the changes in microglia phenotype after cerebral ischemia reperfusion(1R)injury and the effects of adenosine on nerve injury of cerebral IR injured rats.Methods Thirty-six healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into the sham operation(Sham)group,IR group,and adenosine pretreatment(AP)group,with 12 rats in each group.Before modeling,rats in the AP group were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of adenosine injection daily for 3 consecutive days,and rats in the Sham group and IR group were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of normal saline daily for 3 consecutive days.The middle cerebral artery occlusion models of rats in the IR group and AP group were constructed by using the suture-occluded method,and only the carotid artery of rats was isolated in the Sham group without ligation of blood vessels.At 2 hours after modeling,the neuroethology of rats in each group were evaluated according to a 5-point neurobehavioral scale.At 24 hours after restoring the blood perfusion in the middle cerebral artery,the rats in each group were executed,and their brain tissues were removed.The morphological changes of the brain tissues in the ischemic penumbra region were observed after hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.The co-expression of M1-type microglia markers and M2-type microglia markers was detected by immunofluorescence staining.The relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin(IL)-1β released by M1-type microglia,and anti-inflammatory factors IL-4,IL-10 and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)released by M2-type microglia were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Results The neurobehavioral scores of rats in the IR group and AP group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group,and the neurobehavioral score of rats in the IR group was significantly higher than that in the AP group(P<0.05).HE staining results showed that the brain cells of rats in the Sham group were structurally complete and tightly arranged,with visible nuclei and no interstitial edema;the brain cells of rats in the IR group were structurally damaged and irregularly arranged,with loose cytoplasm and vacuoles in the cytosome;the structure of brain cells of rat in the AP group was better than that in the IR group,and there were many regularly-arranged normal cells,with complete nuclei.Immunofluorescence staining results showed that the number of M1-type and M2-type microglia in the ischemic penumbra region of rats in the IR group and AP group was significantly higher than that in the Sham group;the number of M1-type microglia in the IR group was significantly higher than that in the AP group,and the number of M2-type microglia was significantly lower than that in the AP group(P<0.05).qRT-PCR results showed that the relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β,iNOS and anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4,IL-10,TGF-β in the IR group and AP group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group(P<0.05);the relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β and iNOS in the AP group were significantly lower than those in the IR group(P<0.05),while the relative expression levels of anti-inflammatory factors IL-4,IL-10 and TGF-β were significantly higher than those in the IR group(P<0.05).Conclusion AP can promote the polarization of microglia from M1 type to M2 type,inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory factors,increases the expression of anti-inflammatory factors,and thus has a neuroprotective effect on rats after cerebral IR injury.

Objective:To compare the consistency and detection capability of seven 2019-nCoV nucleic acid detection kits, and provide reference for detection method selection of clinical laboratory and diagnosis of new coronavirus pneumonia.Methods:Two batches of pharyngeal swab samples were collected from tenpatients with confirmed infection of 2019-nCoV and 10 suspected patients with negative 2019-nCoV test results during January 29 to February 5, 2020 in Shenzhen Luohu People′s Hospital. Seven kinds of kits were labeled as ato g and used for nucleic acid detection respectively to evaluate the consistency of the test results of the clinical samples. A 2019-nCoV positive specimen was selected and diluted to 5-concentration gradient plates (Level-1 to 5) with RNase-free water. The positive detection rate and intra-batch repeatability of different brands of kits were compared.Results:The negative and positive coincidence rates of twenty clinical samples tested by six kinds of kits were 100%, and the positive and negative coincidence rate was 8/10 and 10/10 for the other kit, respectively. The results of intra-batch repeatability showed the CVs of viral loads tested by these seven kits were all less than 5%. In the concentration range of Level-1 to 3, the detection capability for open reading frame (ORF)1ab gene of Kit b,d and f was lower than Kit a,c,e and g, and the detection capability of kit e and g was the highest (14/15). The detection capability for N gene of Kit a (15/15) was higher than the other 5 kits. The comprehensive analysis of the detection capability for ORF1ab and N gene showedthat Kit d had the lowest detection capability (ORF1ab:40%,N:53%), and there was no significant difference in the detection capability of Kit a, b, c, e, and f.Conclusions:There was no significant difference in the accuracy and repeatability of the seven kits for positive samples with high viral loads, and the detection performance was good; but some kits had poor detection capability for weak positive samples. It is suggested that the weak positive samples should be rechecked by at least two manufacturers′ kits to ensure the accuracy of the results.
