This paper discussed the current education status on medical ethics and styles and the assessment condition in the examination of doctors' qualification, as well as the existing problems and potential solutions by reviewing domestic and foreign literature and summarizing the practice experience. Traditionally, medical ethics and styles have always been integrated into clinical medical practice in China. However, under the modern medical education system, it is challenged to integrate traditional education on medical ethics and styles with the rules of modern medical knowledge. By summarizing the education and assessment status of medical ethics and styles in the examination of doctors' qualification, it is found that the current examination is relatively poor in the evaluation content, and the way of evaluation is not diverse, with lack of curriculum of medical humanities. The solutions suggested are enriching relevant examination content, introducing more and comprehensive evaluation method, and establishing more medical humanities-related courses.

Objective:To study the effect of segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis on improving the nutritional status of patients with severe intestinal fistula,to explore the impact of nutritional support methods on the recovery of severe intestinal fistula,and to provide nursing experience for patients with severe intestinal fistula. Methods:96 patients with severe intestinal fistulas complicated by multiple fistulas admitted to the intensive care unit of Research Institute of General Surgery from February 2023 to August 2023 were selected. According to the nutritional support method,they were divided into intervention group (n=47) and control group (n=49). The intervention group used segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis,and the control group only used segmented enteral nutrition. After 14 days of enteral nutrition intervention,the nutritional status of the two groups was compared,such as BMI,serum albumin levels,total protein levels,and hemoglobin levels;inflammation levels,such as serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels,interleukin-6 (IL-6),enteral Incidence of nutritional intolerance symptoms,prognosis such as total ICU length of stay,total hospitalization costs,etc. Results:After 14 days intervention,the serum total protein and hemoglobin of the intervention group were (71.55±7.00) g/L and (106.64±15.59) g/L,which were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). The BMI of the intervention group was (21.83±4.44)kg/m2,and BMI in the control group was (19.64±3.16)kg/m2. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The CRP level in the intervention group was (35.71±27.77) mg/L,which was significantly lower than that in the control group[(56.78±51.22) mg/L,P<0.05]. The IL-6 level in the intervention group was (30.20±24.47) pg/mL,which was also significantly lower than that in the control group[(76.18±54.36)pg/mL,P<0.05]. Conclusion:Segmented enteral nutrition combined with fistuloclysis is beneficial to improving patients' nutritional status,reducing inflammatory reactions,reducing the incidence of enteral nutrition intolerance,and reducing the length of total hospitalization.

To analyze the host factors affecting the drug resistance of Patients with Hp infection were consecutively recruited in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from November 2021 to October 2023. Endoscopic biopsy specimens were collected for pathological diagnosis, Hp strain culture and antimicrobial susceptibility test. Nineteen factors involving the basic information, lifestyle, dietary habits, and health status of the patients were collected through electronic medical records and questionnaires. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between the patients' factors and drug resistance to clarithromycin, levofloxacin, amoxicillin, furazolidone, tetracycline and metronidazole. A total of 115 patients (Hp strain 115) with Hp infection who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. There were 53 males (46.09%) and 62 females (53.91%), with an average age of (45.16±13.39) years. Gastroscopic pathology showed 86 cases (74.78%) of superficial gastritis, 6 cases (5.22%) of atrophic gastritis, 14 cases (12.17%) of intestinal metaplasia, 6 cases (5.22%) of low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and 3 cases (2.61%) of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia/gastric cancer. The drug resistance rates of Hp strains to metronidazole, levofloxacin and clarithromycin were 91.30% (105/115), 53.04% (61/115) and 51.30% (59/115), respectively. Resistance to amoxicillin, furazolidone and tetracycline was not found. Dual drug resistance: levofloxacin + metronidazole dual resistance rate was 50.43% (58/115), clarithromycin + metronidazole dual resistance rate was 47.83% (55/115), clarithromycin + levofloxacin dual resistance rate was 36.52% (42/115). Multidrug resistance: clarithromycin + levofloxacin + metronidazole triple resistance rate was 34.78% (40/115). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that (metronidazole was not included in the multivariate analysis due to the absence of sensitive strains), previous Hp eradication history ( The drug resistance rate of Hp strains isolated from patients in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University to metronidazole, levofloxacin and clarithromycin were high, and dual drug resistance and multidrug resistance were prominent. Age, previous Hp eradication history and drinking water source may be associated with single or dual drug resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin. Comprehensive consideration, reasonable selection of antibiotics and individualized treatment should be taken into account during Hp eradication.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Recently,inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS)has shown great potential in the quantitative analysis of biomolecules due to its high sensitivity,high accuracy,anti-interference ability and multi-element detection capability.Elemental tags enable specific labeling of target biomolecules with element-reporter groups,playing a critical role in the performance of bioanalysis using ICP-MS.Antibodies are highly specific to antigens on cell surfaces and are one of the most commonly used targeted delivery vehicles.Traditional random chemical coupling methods are difficult to control the coupling sites and loading numbers of element reporters,which lead to heterogeneity of antibody conjugates,affecting the specific recognition and binding ability of antibodies and antigens,and thus reducing the targeting ability and quantitative accuracy.To solve these issues,site-specific coupling of antibodies with element reporter was studied in this work.By using peptide-mediated affinity labeling technology,a short chain DNA was specifically labeled to immunoglobulin G(IgG)antibody K248,and then DNA base complementary pairing was used to realize accurate assembly of monoclonal antibodies and Eu-modified phage MS2 capsid,resulting in the preparation of highly sensitive and selective element tags.This method overcame the heterogeneity problem of element tags caused by random coupling,and ensured the targeting specificity,affinity and signal amplification ability of element tags.The element tag prepared here showed a specificity to bind/label with epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)biomarker on the surface of cancer cells,realizing single cancer cell analysis using ICP-MS.
