The community teaching bases play an important role in training of general practice talents. To raise the training quality, the development of their own capacity is crucial, but community medical institutions also need close cooperation with the departments of general practice in medical schools and the higher-level general hospitals. This article discusses the integration model of management, teaching and research in general practice talent training based on the cooperation of community teaching bases with relevant governmental departments, professional societies/associations, general hospitals and medical schools.

Objective:To construct an evaluation scale for post competence of family doctors based on knowledge-skill-management model.Methods:The evaluation dimensions and indicators for post competency of family doctors were preliminarily developed through literature review, internal group meeting and brainstorming, and in-depth interviews of experts. And 16 experts in the fields of general practice and health management were invited for 2 rounds of Delphi consultation from December 2020 to April 2021. A competency evaluation scale for family doctors based on the dimensions of knowledge, skills and management was finally constructed.Results:The age of the experts was (47.9±7.3) years with a working experience of (24.6±7.8) years. The Cronbach′s α of the questionnaires was 0.891 and the KMO was 0.844. The positive coefficients for 2 rounds of expert consultation were 100%; the familiarity level of experts was 0.86 and authority level was 0.89 in the first round consultation, and those were 0.84 and 0.90 in the second round consultation. After 2 rounds of consultation, the coordination coefficient of expert opinions in the knowledge and skill dimensions was>0.5, and that in the management dimension and overall evaluation system was>0.3. After discussion 2 indicators were deleted in the first round of consultation. The finally constructed family doctor post competency evaluation scale included 3 dimensions, 8 secondary indicators and 61 tertiary indicators. Conclusion:Through the Delphi consultation, we have successfully constructed an evaluation scale for post competence of family doctors based on the three dimensions of knowledge, skills and management.

Background: Replacing damaged anterior cruciate ligaments (ACLs) with tissue-engineered artificial ligaments is challenging because ligament scaffolds must have a multiregional structure that can guide stem cell differentiation. Here, we designed a biphasic scaffold and evaluated its effect on human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) under dynamic culture conditions as well as rat ACL reconstruction model in vivo. Methods: We designed a novel dual-phase electrospinning strategy wherein the scaffolds comprised randomly arranged phases at the two ends and an aligned phase in the middle. The morphological, mechanical properties and scaffold degradation were investigated. MSCs proliferation, adhesion, morphology and fibroblast markers were evaluated under dynamic culturing. This scaffold were tested if they could induce ligament formation using a rodent model in vivo. Results: Compared with other materials, poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PLGA/PCL) with mass ratio of 1:5 showed appropriate mechanical properties and biodegradability that matched ACLs. After 28 days of dynamic culturing, MSCs were fusiform oriented in the aligned phase and randomly arranged in a paving-stone-like morphology in the random phase. The increased expression of fibroblastic markers demonstrated that only the alignment of nanofibers worked with mechanical stimulation to promote effective fibroblast differentiation. This scaffold was a dense collagenous structure, and there was minimal difference in collagen direction in the orientation phase. Conclusion Dual-phase electrospun scaffolds had mechanical properties and degradability similar to those of ACLs. They promoted differences in the morphology of MSCs and induced fibroblast differentiation under dynamic culture conditions. Animal experiments showed that ligamentous tissue regenerated well and supported joint stability.

Objective:To study the coronal bone structure matching of distal radius in normal population and some patients with postoperative distal radius fracture, and to explore the clinical significance of coronal bone structure reduction of distal radius fracture.Methods:CT scans of 80 asymptomatic wrists were performed. Mimics 20.0 and 3-Matic research software were used to measure the matching data of coronal bone structure of the distal radius. Total of 44 patients with distal radius fractures treated with open reduction and volar plate fixation were collected. According to the data coronal bone structure of the distal radius, the matching group was in the normal range, and the mismatching group was less than the normal range. X-ray films were used to evaluate fracture healing, humeral height, ulnar angle and palm tilt angle at 3 months and 12 months after operation. The clinical indexes of wrist pain, wrist function, grip strength and activity were recorded in 2 groups. The DASH score was used for evaluation, and statistical comparisons was made between the two groups of related indicators.Results:The coronal bone structure matching value of the distal radius in 80 normal adults was 45.0%±16.2%. All the 44 patients with distal radius fracture were followed up for an average of 16 months. The postoperative wound healing was good, and the bone healing standard was reached 3 months after the operation. 3 months after surgery, radius height, ulnar deviation angle and palmar inclination angle of the mismatched group were all smaller than those of the matched group, but the differences had no statistical significance. The pronation angle in the mismatched group (68.82°±11.62°) was lower than that in the matched group (76.91°±9.14°), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.567, P=0.014). The DASH score in the mismatched group (15.53±2.36) was higher than that in the matched group (13.62±2.52), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.591, P=0.013). 12 months after surgery, the VAS score of the matched group (2.08±2.95) was less than that of the mismatched group (2.95±1.24), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.348, P=0.024). There was no significant difference in wrist range of motion, grip strength and DASH score between the two groups. Conclusion:The coronal bone structure matching of distal radius is about 45.0% in normal population. Early wrist dysfunction, limited pronation, and wrist pain may occur when the postoperative matching degree of the distal radius fracture is not within the normal range.

Objective:To survey the status of antihypertensive therapy knowledge and hypertension management among general practitioners in community health centers (CHCs) in China.Methods:Based on the eastern, western, southern and northern regions of the country, 350 CHCs were selected from 11 cities across the country with stratified sampling method for study sites, and one general practitioner was selected from each CHC. The questionnaire survey was conducted from March 12 to April 20, 2018 among 350 participants. The content of the questionnaire included the proportion of hypertensive patients in the consultation, treatment target rate, antihypertensive drugs and protocol, the medication compliance, follow-up, blood pressure self-measurement, and the impact of hierachical medical system on CHC.Results:Total 350 valid questionnaires were recovered. The survey showed that: (1) Among the patients treated by general practitioners, 46% (30%, 60%) were hypertensive patients including 41% (40%, 55%) with primary hypertension and 42% (40%, 50%) with secondary hypertension; 72% (60%, 80%) of the patients had comorbidities, including dyslipidemia, diabetes, and coronary heart disease. (2) Western medicine was the main antihypertensive treatment [90% (82%, 100%) ], calcium channel blockers were the most commonly used antihypertensive drug [46%(30%,60%)], the therapeutic protocol was mainly single agent [35% (25%, 50%) ]or free combination [50% (40%, 60%) ]; the stable(9.1±0.8), long-acting (9.0±0.9) and high standard reaching rate (8.1±1.1) antihypertensive drugs were first considered, and the standard reaching rate of hypertension treatment was 61% (50%, 75%) . (3) The regular follow-up rate, adherence to blood pressure self-test rate and long-term regular medication rate was 60%(50%,70%), 51%(40%,70%) and 65%(50%,70%), respectively. The factors affecting patients′ compliance were history of cardiovascular diseases (8.4±1.1)and patients′ cognition of disease(8.3±1.1). General practitioners believed that the positive effects of the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system include helping to establish a closer relationship with patients [62.6% (219/350)] and improving patient compliance for community preferential reimbursement policies[58.6% (205/350) ]. The challenges faced by CHC included higher patient expectations [52.8% (185/350)] and increased outpatient visits [52.6% (184/350)]. Insufficient diagnostic equipment [68.3% (239/350)], inadequate dispensing [52.3% (183/350)] and other issues restricted the development of CHC, and the clinical competence of general practitioners [51.7% (181/350)] need to be improved.Conclusion:Patients with hypertension account for about half of the total number of visits in community health service centers, and most of them are comorbid with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases or risk factors. The long-term treatment compliance and self-management of blood pressure need to be further improved.
