Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of a schedule of 2 cycles' high-dose dexamethasone (HD-DXM) as an initial therapy in adults immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and compare with conventional dose prednisone therapy. Method A total of 59 newly diagnosed ITP patients were divided into 2 groups randomly. In 30 patients ( Dexamethasone group), oral HD-DXM was administered at 40 mg/d for 4 consecutive days, repeated one week later, and then failed to maintain. In the remaining 29and then gradually tapered. Results For short-term efficacy, after 1 and 2 weeks of treatment, the response rate in Dexamethasone group was significantly higher than that in Prednisone group (50. 0% vs 24. 1%, P <0. 01; 73.3% vs 55.2%, P <0. 05 ), while 3 weeks later, there was no remarkable difference between the two groups(83.3% vs 68.9%, P > 0. 05 ), though the response rate in Dexamethasone group remained higher. For long-term effect, at the end of the 2nd and 3rd months of follow-up, the relapse rate in Dexamethasone group was significantly lower than that in Prednisone group(24. 0% vs 40. 0%, P < 0. 05;32.0% vs 65. 0%, P < 0. 01 ), while at the end of the 1st month of follow-up, there was no significant difference( 16. 0% vs 20. 0%, P >0.05 ). In addition, it's well tolerated and no complications such as severe infection or Cushing syndrome were complained in Dexamethasone group. Conclusion HD-DXM possesses an advantage over conventional dose prednisone therapy in efficacy and safety.

Objective To construct and assess the competency scale for emergency physicians in our country. Methods Learning from the milestone project in America, we developed the scale through Delphi method . The application effect was evaluated among 81 emergency physicians by questionnaire survey. Excel was used to do data entry. SPSS 20.0 was adopted to do data analysis. Factor analysis method was employed to verify the structure validity of the scale. Results The competency scale comprises six dimensions and 13 items. The scale of total Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.98 and the split half reliability was 0.95. Two factors were extracted by principal component analysis with cumulative contribution rate of 86.5%. The differ-ences of competency score on six aspects of different ages, titles, working years and training situation were tested and all had statistically significant differ-ence (P<0.01). Conclusion The scale developed in our study can reflect the growth stage of the emergency physicians and serve the purpose as an evaluation tool for the competency of emergency physicians in our country.

Objective:Currently,the medical Institutional Review Board(IRB)mainly rely on experience to analyse the risks and benefits of clinical research,lacking an assessment framework of risks and benefits.Methods:Using grounded theory,interviews were conducted on 29 ethical review workers in China.Through open coding,spindle coding,and selective coding,the framework of risks and benefits for clinical research in China was constructed.NVivo11 software was used for data storage,organization,encoding,and analysis.Results:A framework of risks and benefits for clinical research was proposed based on China's national conditions.Clinical research risks consisted of physiological risk,psychological risk,economic risk,and social risk.Research benefits consisted of subject benefits and society benefits.Conclusion:This paper systematically explained the connotation of the risks and benefits of clinical research,and constructed a framework of the risks and benefits of clinical research applicable to China.It has certain innovations in theoretical research,and also provides use for reference for researchers and ethics committees to evaluate risks and potential benefits in clinical research.

Chinese Medical Ethics 2024;37(9):1061-1067
With the rapid development and widespread application of artificial intelligence(AI)technology,it has brought convenience to people's lives and work,while bringing a series of ethical challenges such as lack of transparency,privacy leakage,limited autonomy in decision-making,and blurred responsibility attribution.By comparing the ethical risk governance of the application of AI in the medical field,this paper systematically analyzed 30 policy regulations issued by 10 countries and international organizations,revealing the consensus and differences in ethical governance of medical AI internationally.The results showed that transparency,fairness and justice,non-harm,privacy protection,freedom and autonomy,responsibility,and people-oriented principles were seven internationally recognized ethical principles,providing important guidance for building a safe,trustworthy,and humane-respecting medical AI ecosystem.In addition,this paper deeply compared the risk assessment methods in the guidelines of China,the United States,and the European Union,as well as found differences in risk types,risk grading,and risk assessment process standards.These differences not only reflect diversities in different cultural,legal backgrounds,and regulatory concepts,but also highlight the necessity of strengthening international cooperation in the context of globalization.Therefore,it is recommended to develop ethical risk governance standards and norms for medical AI that applicable to China's national conditions.Based on drawing on international experience,proactively carry out risk assessments,reduce ethical challenges,and promote the healthy and rational application of medical AI technology.
