Objective:To evaluate the application of modular teaching program in the clinical competence training for community general practitioners.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A 140 teaching hour-modular training program was designed by the authors on the basis of the previous training experience and conducted in clinical competence training for 20 general practitioners (study group) from all 10 community health service centers in Shanghai Huangpu district between September 2022 and April 2023; and 26 general practitioners who planned to participate in the next batch of training courses were enrolled as the control group. The clinical competence assessment was conducted in May 2023, including knowledge level tests and clinical skill assessment. By comparing the scores of clinical competence assessment and satisfaction survey between two groups, the training effectiveness was evaluated.Results:Among the 46 general practitioners, 33 (71.7%) were female, aged 27 to 47 (37±6), working in general practice for 2 to 25 (9.4±5.5) years, 31 (67.4%) had participated in standardized residency training for general practice and 31 (67.4%) were contracted family doctors. The total score of 46 general practitioners was 69.7±9.6, and 68.9±8.6 for knowledge level and 69.8±10.6 for clinical skills. The total scores and single scores of trained participants were all significantly higher than those of untrained(all P<0.05). The multiple linear regression model showed that after controlling for gender, age, educational background, professional title, years of working in general practice, participation in standardized residency training, and status as a contracted family doctor, the trained participants had significantly higher scores in history collection, pediatric reception, indwelling gastric tube and abdominal puncture (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the scores in knowledge level test, nervous system physical examination, SOAP medical record writing, and tutorium between the trained and untrained groups (all P>0.05). Among 20 general practitioners who completed training, the overall satisfaction score of the training program was 4.3±0.7 points, including 4.3±0.6 for the training course, 4.3±0.7 for teachers, and 4.3±0.7 for the organization and arrangement; 85% of the participants considered the training to be very helpful or helpful for improving their competence, and 90% considered the training to be very helpful or helpful for their future work. Conclusion:Modular teaching program is helpful to improve the clinical competence of community general practitioners, especially in clinical skills.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of biliary infection after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients with malignant biliary obstruction.Methods:Clinical data of 160 patients with malignant biliary obstruction admitted to the Affiliated People's Hospital of Ningbo Univer-sity from June 2017 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 89 males and 71 females, aged (65.1±8.0) (range, 41-78) years old. Patients were divided into two groups according to the occurrence of biliary infection within 30 days after ERCP: infected group ( n=30) and uninfected group ( n=130). Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors of postoperative biliary infection. Results:The incidence of biliary infection after ERCP was 18.8% (30/160) in the patients with malignant biliary obstruction. A total of 43 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected, including 34 Gram-negative strains and nine Gram-positive strains. The most common pathogenic bacterium was Escherichia coli. Multivariate analysis showed patients with diabetes mellitus ( OR=2.356, 95% CI: 1.587-5.441, P=0.001), sphincter dysfunction ( OR=2.651, 95% CI: 1.854-6.225, P=0.005), preoperative albumin <35 g/L ( OR=3.225, 95% CI: 2.041-5.689, P=0.002), preoperative hemoglobin <110 g/L ( OR=3.424, 95% CI: 2.115-6.333, P=0.003) suffered a higher risk of biliary infection after ERCP. Conclusion:Diabetes mellitus, sphincter dysfunction, lower levels of preoperative albumin and hemoglobin are independent risk factors for biliary infection after ERCP in patients with malignant biliary obstruction.

Objective:To explore the impact of health self-focused attention on knowledge, attitude and practice of health management in patients with essential hypertension.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 190 patients with essential hypertension were randomly selected from Shanghai Dapuqiao Community Health Service Center to participate in a questionnaire survey from October to December, 2021. The contents of the questionnaire included the general information of the patients, the degree of influence of hypertension on individuals, and the patients′ knowledge and personal cognition of hypertension, self-management behaviors, health self-focused attention, and blood pressure control. SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 24.0 were used to develop a structural equation model for analysis.Results:The recovery rate of questionnaires was 100.0% (190/190). Of the 190 patients, there were 82 males and 108 females with a mean age of (71.2±8.5) years. According to blood pressure, 190 hypertensive patients were divided into blood pressure controlled group ( n=119) and blood pressure non-controlled group ( n=71). There were significant differences in the total scores of hypertension self-management behavior and health self-focused attention between the two groups ( P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the degree of influence of hypertension on individuals was negatively correlated with the disease knowledge and personal cognition, and the performance of hypertension self-management behavior ( r=-0.39 and -0.28, P<0.01), while the disease knowledge and personal cognition were positively correlated with the performance of hypertension self-management behavior and health self-focused attention ( r=0.29 and 0.27, P<0.01). Hypertension self-management behavior was positively correlated with health self-focused attention and blood pressure control ( r=0.28 and 0.48, P<0.01), and health self-focused attention was positively correlated with blood pressure control ( r=0.21, P<0.01). The equation model analysis showed that health self-focused attention had a driving effect on patients′ disease knowledge and cognition and self-management behavior. Health self-focused attention significantly affected patients′ mastery of disease knowledge and formation of correct cognition (path coefficient=0.28). In addition, hypertension patients′ disease knowledge storage and internal recognition of prevention and treatment strategies determined their self-management behavior (path coefficient=0.20). On the other hand, the impact of hypertension on patients life, work and economic burden played a negative role in their acceptance of disease management knowledge, formation of correct concepts, and adoption of self-management behaviors with adjustment coefficients of -0.48 and -0.22, respectively. Conclusion:Health self-focused attention may play an initial role in the process of changing the knowledge, attitude and behavior of hypertension patients.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effects and costs of spraying 20% suspension concentrate of pyricloben-zuron sulphate (SCPS) with drones against Pomacea canaliculata in paddy environments, so as to provide insights into the extensive applications of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata. Methods On July 2022, a paddy field was selected from Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province as the study area, and 72 independent rectangular plots measuring 2 m × 1 m were allocated in the study area, with 1 m interval between each plot, and 20 P. canaliculata snails gently placed in each plot. The activity of 25% wettable powder of pyriclobenzuron sulphate (WPPS) by manual spraying at doses of 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/m2 and 4.00 g/m2 against P. canaliculata was tested in 54 plots, and manual spraying of 50% wettable powder of niclosamide ethanolamine salt (WPNES) at a dose of 0.10 g/m2 served as a chemical control, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with 9 plots in each group. The activity of SCPS against P. canaliculata was tested in the remaining 18 plots. Based on the molluscicidal tests of WPPS, the molluscicidal effect of SCPS by manual spraying at doses of 0.20, 0.30, 0.40 g/m2 and 0.50 g/m2 against P. canaliculata was evaluated, and manual spraying of WPNES at a dose of 0.10 g/m2 served as a chemical control, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with three plots in each group. On July 2023, 14 paddy fields with a mean living P. canaliculata density of > 5 snails/m2 were selected from Yujiang District, Yingtan City, Jiangxi Province for molluscicidal tests. Based on the molluscicidal effect of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata in plots, the molluscicidal effects of WPPS by manual spraying at doses of 0.25, 0.50 g/m2 and 1.00 g/m2 and manual applications of WPPS at dose of 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 g/m2 and 2.00 g/m2 mixed with soil were tested, and manual spraying of 0.10 g/m2 WPNES served as a chemical control group, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with one paddy field in each group. Based on the effect of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata in plots, the activity of SCPS sprayed with drones at doses of 0.25 g/m2 and 0.50 g/m2 mixed in water at 2 kg/667 m2 and 4 kg/667 m2 was tested against P. canaliculata, and spraying of the same volume of clean water with drones served as a blank control. All P. canaliculata snails were captured 3 days and 7 days following chemical treatment in plots and paddy fields and identified for survival, and the mortality and corrected mortality of P. canaliculata snails were estimated. In addition, the areas of chemical treatment, amount of molluscicide use and labor costs of chemical treatment were estimated in molluscicidal tests in paddy fields, and the costs of chemical treatment for an area covering 667 m2 by drones and manual applications were calculated. Results The mortality of P. canaliculata snails was all 100% in plots 3 days and 7 days following spraying WPPS at doses of 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/m2 and 4.00 g/m2, and the mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 66.67% to 100.00% 3 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses (χ2 = 277.897, P < 0.05) and 76.67% to 100.00% 7 days post-treatment (χ2 = 274.206, P < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 98.19% to 100.00% 3 days post-treatment with WPPS at various doses in paddy fields. There was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among WPPS treatment groups and controls (χ2 = 270.778, P < 0.05), and there were no significant differences between WPPS treatment groups and the chemical control group (all P values > 0.05), while there were significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails between WPPS treatment groups and the blank control group (all P values < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 89.83% to 95.31% 3 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses sprayed with drones, and there was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (χ2 = 1 132.892, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups or water mixture groups (all P values > 0.05), and there were significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails between SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (all P values < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 94.62% to 100.00% 7 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses sprayed with drones, and there was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (χ2 = 1 266.932, P < 0.05), with the highest mortality found following spraying 0.50 g/m2 SCPS mixed in 2 kg/667 m2 water with drones (P < 0.05). The costs of P. canaliculata snail control by drones and manually were 35.85 Yuan/667 m2 and 43.33 Yuan/667 m2; however, the snail control efficiency was 6.67 times higher by drones than by manual applications. Conclusions SCPS sprayed with drones is highly active against P. canaliculata snails in paddy fields. SCPS sprayed with drones is highly efficient and low in cost for P. canaliculata snail control in paddy fields, beaches and river courses.
