Chemotherapy is an important treatment for tumors, but most patients experience varying degrees of chemotherapy- induced myelosuppression. Four properties theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has unique advantages in improving chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. The monomers from TCM with different properties and flavors, such as cold-natured (e.g. Scutellaria baicalensis, Rhus chinensis), cool-natured (e.g. Ligustrum lucidum, Ophiopogon japonicus), warm-natured (e.g. Panax ginseng, Epimedium brevicornu, Curcuma longa, Angelica sinensis), hot-natured (e.g. Cinnamomum cassia, Aconitum carmichaeli), and neutral-natured (e. g. donkey-hide gelatin, Lycium barbarum, Rhodiola rosea, fungi), can exert anti- myelosuppressive effects by reducing damage to hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, improving the bone marrow hematopoietic microenvironment, inhibiting the oxidative stress response, regulating signaling pathways, so as to ultimately repaire inflammatory damage and improve hematopoietic function, thereby playing an anti-myelosuppressive role.

Medical Physics is an interdiscipline which is formed by applying the basic principles, methods, and techniques of physics to clinical medical research such as prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human diseases, and it is a compulsory professional basic course for medical students. However, there are many medical students reflect that the content of this course is obscure and difficult to understand. Teaching effect is not ideal. The main reasons are that the teaching method is single and the reference materials are few. Based on the actual situation of the course, Hebei Medical University, China promotes formative evaluation from the content of teaching materials, teaching means, and other aspects. At the same time, by combining with the Internet, the digital construction has been realized, deepening the reform of the Medical Physics curriculum, and remarkable results have been achieved.

Background::Joint dislocations significantly impact public health. However, a comprehensive study on the incidence, distribution, and risk factors for joint dislocations in China is lacking. We conducted the China National Joint Dislocation Study, which is a part of the China National Fracture Study conducted to obtain the national incidence and risk factors for traumatic fractures, and to investigate the incidence and risk factors for joint dislocations.Methods::For this national retrospective epidemiological study, 512,187 participants were recruited using stratified random sampling and probability-proportional-to-size method from January 19 to May 16, 2015. Participants who sustained joint dislocations of the trunk, arms, or legs (skull, sternum, and ribs being excluded) in 2014 were personally interviewed to obtain data on age, educational background, ethnic origin, occupation, geographic region, and urbanization degree. The joint-dislocation incidence was calculated based on age, sex, body site, and demographic factors. The risk factors for different groups were examined using multiple logistic regression.Results::One hundred and nineteen participants sustained 121 joint dislocations in 2014. The population-weighted incidence rate of joint dislocations of the trunk, arms, or legs was 0.22 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16, 0.27) per 1000 population in 2014 (men, 0.27 [0.20, 0.34]; women, 0.16 [0.10, 0.23]). For all ages, previous dislocation history (male: OR 42.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.03–148.90; female: OR 54.43, 95% CI: 17.37–170.50) and alcohol consumption (male: OR 3.50, 95% CI: 1.49–8.22; female: OR 2.65, 95% CI: 1.08–6.50) were risk factors for joint dislocation. Sleeping less than 7 h/day was a risk factor for men. Compared with children, women aged ≥15 years (female 15–64 years: OR 0.16, 95% CI: 0.04–0.61; female ≥65 years: OR 0.06, 95% CI: 0.01–0.41) were less likely to sustain joint dislocations. Women with more than three children were at higher dislocation risk than women without children (OR 6.92, 95% CI: 1.18–40.78).Conclusions::The up-to-date data on joint dislocation incidence, distribution, and risk factors can be used as a reference for national healthcare, prevention, and management in China. Specific strategies for decreasing alcohol consumption and encouraging adequate sleeping hours should be developed to prevent or reduce dislocation incidents.Trial Registration::Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR-EPR-15005878.

Methods A total of 54 relevant policy texts issued by the Central Government from 2011 to 2019 were selected, for establishing a two-dimensional analysis framework based on policy tools and stakeholders.By means of quantitative analysis of policy text and literature research method, we analyzed the relevant policy texts. Results Study of the 54 texts found 52.8% (124/235)mentioned commands and regulatory tool use, 27.2% (64/235) mentioned capacity building tool use, 13.2% (31/235) mentioned information and exhortation tool use, 5.1% (12/235)only mentioned incentive tool use, and 1.7% (4/235) only mentioned system change tool use; while most of them(34.3% and 32.7% )mentioned government and physicians, and only a few(17.6% and 15.4% )mentioned patients and medical entities. Conclusions It is suggested to optimize the policy tools mixture, and increase the use of incentive tools to physicians, and explore new forms of system change tools.It is also proposed to pay more attention to resource allocation of primary medical institutions, and to patient awareness and satisfaction.
