Objective:To investigate the status quo of human resources of dentists who deal with periodontal disease in Beijing area through an online survey, which may hopefully provide a preliminary basis for the decision-making of administrative departments and the formulation of periodontal professional development plan.Methods:The dentists who deal with periodontal disease at least half a day per week in Beijing area were investigated. A questionnaire was designed by the chairman of the Periodontology Committee of Beijing Stomatological Association. The questionnaire was sent to and finished by the dentists via "WenJuanXing" online survey software. The contents of the survey included general condition, the property of practice unit, title and position of the dentist, membership of professional society, time and content of periodontal treatment, adoption of new technology and new method of periodontal therapy during the past one year, status of periodontal treatment in the local population and reasons, understanding and influencing factors of periodontal professional development.Results:A total of 1 255 dentists completed the survey, who came from all 16 districts in Beijing, mainly Haidian, Chaoyang, Dongcheng and Xicheng Districts [The total percentage of these four main districts was 70.3% (882/1 255)]. The mean age of the dentists was (36.1±8.3) years. Among the dentists, 71.1% (892/1 255) were females, 88.1% (1 106/1 255) got a Bachelor′s degree or above. It was estimated that 35.4% (444/1 255) of the dentists had received standardized periodontal training ever. The percentage of dentists carrying out new technology in the past one year was as high as 68.1% (855/1 255). There were only 163 periodontal specialists (13.0%) out of the dentists in the survey. Only 15.9% (200/1 255) of the dentists routinely performed periodontal surgery. The majority of the dentists [82.8% (1 039/1 255)] were from the state-owned hospitals. Fifty-four point seven percemt (686/1 255) of the dentists thought that lack of knowledge was the main reason why the general public failed to receive periodontal treatment. As for the biggest bottleneck affecting periodontal professional development, fifty-one point zero percent (640/1 255) of the dentists attributed it to the public neglect.Conclusions:The periodontal practitioners in Beijing are young, highly educated, unevenly distributed in 16 districts and mostly females. State-owned oral health institutions are an important force in periodontal diagnosis and treatment services in Beijing. The number of periodontal specialists need to be improved. Promotion of standardized periodontal surgery and the popularization of healthcare knowledge on periodontal disease should also be the focus in the future.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and managements of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infection after kidney transplantation.Methods:The authors reviewed medical history, laboratory values, imaging studies, treatment options and clinical outcomes of two confirmed hospitalized cases of COVID-19 after kidney transplant in February 2020. Both cases were middle-aged males and confirmed as COVID-19 at 11 or 12 months after transplantation. They both presented initially with moderate-to-low fever, cough and fatigue. Chest computed tomography (CT) hinted at multiple peripheral patchy ground glass opacities or patchy exudation and in bilateral multiple lobular and subsegmental with obscure boundary. Both had varying degrees of renal function and cardiac insufficiency.Results:In case 1, the dose of immunosuppressants was tapered while a higher dose of glucocorticoids was prescribed during treatment. In case 2, the dose of immunosuppressants was not tapered and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) performed thrice in the early disease course due to renal insufficiency and hyperkalemia. Both cases received oxygen inhalation, lopinavir/ritonavir, oral abidor and interferonα-2b antiviral therapy, antibiotics treatment. Both cases were cured.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations and diagnosis of COVID-19 patients after kidney transplantation are not significantly different from those of other people. However, early renal function and heart function abnormalities occur. How to adjust the immunosuppressant in the treatment course of severe COVID-19 after renal transplantation should be further explored.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of imatinib on growth impairment in children with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP) in the chronic phase.Methods:From July 2018 to July 2019, questionnaires were distributed to CML children aged <18 years at the time of diagnosis who were receiving imatinib for at least 3 months or to their parents in China. The height-for-age standard deviation score (HtSDS) and the difference of standard deviation integral (△HtSDS) were used to explore the change in height with imatinib therapy.Results:The data of 238 respondents were included; 138 (58.0% ) respondents were men. The median age at the first diagnosis of CML was 11.0 years (range, 1.4-17.9 years) , and 93 (39.0% ) respondents were at the prepuberty stage. At the time of completing the questionnaires, the median age was 15.0 years (range, 2.0-34.0 years) . The median duration of imatinib therapy was 28 months (range, 3-213 months) . Among all the respondents, the mean HtSDS when completing the questionnaires (-0.063±1.361) was significantly lower than that at the time of starting imatinib treatment (0.391±1.244) ( P<0.001) . Total 71.0% respondents showed growth impairment that was more common in those starting imatinib therapy at prepubertal age than in those starting at pubertal age. Multivariate analysis showed that younger at the start of imatinib therapy ( P<0.001) and longer duration of imatinib therapy ( P<0.001) were significantly associated with severe growth impairment on imatinib therapy. Conclusions:Imatinib induced growth impairment in children with CML-CP. Younger the age of initiation and longer the duration of imatinib therapy, more obvious the effect of imatinib on growth impairment.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the clinical pharmacists to determine their work orientation,and improve their work mode and pharmaceutical care level. METHODS:The questionnaire survey was conducted among doctors,nurses, patients and pharmacists from 65 third grade class A hospitals of 18 provinces(regions,cities)in China. The collected data were analyzed statistically and suggestions were presented. RESULTS:Totally 3 840 questionnaires were sent out,3 045 were effectively received with a recovery of 79.30%[involving 56 third grade class A hospitals of 17 provinces(regions,cities)]. Of 3 045 valid questionnaires,1 001 questionnaires were filled out by the doctors and nurses,1 013 questionnaires were filled by the pharmacists and 1 031 questionnaires were filled out by the patients. 88.45% of the survey doctors and nurses thought that clinical pharmacists were needed in their wards. The major clinical pharmaceutical care they needed were the participation of clinical pharmacists in the clinical ward round,patients management,difficult case discussions,consultation(77.32%),etc. 64.54% of the survey doctors and nurses thought that clinical pharmacists could participate the clinical work and solve some simple medicine-related problems, and 27.17% of the survey doctors and nurses thought that clinical pharmacists could resolve clinical medicine-related problems. 14.59% of the survey doctors and nurses believed that clinical pharmacists lacked clinical thinking and could not communicate with medical staff. The most common problems the survey medical staff met were as follows:ADR (78.02%),usage and dosage(72.83%),contraindications(72.63%),drug indication(63.14%)and solvent selection (61.74%),etc. As regards the ratio of working time which clinical pharmacists spent on their clinical work,over 50%(35.55%)and 30%(23.46%)were most chosen by the survey pharmacists,while 13.19% of the survey pharmacists thought clinical pharmacists almost did not participate in clinical work. The survey pharmacists thought that there were some deficiencies in the knowledge structure of clinical pharmacists, such as clinical medical science and therapeutics(92.50%), communication skills(47.19%),professional knowledge of pharmacy(46.10%),etc. 87.90% of the survey patients were willing to accept the medication guidance provided by clinical pharmacists. The services they required were as follows:medication guidance(79.92%),observation and discovery of medication problem(71.00%),etc. CONCLUSIONS:Medical staff and patients have demands in many ways associated with clinical work and rational drug use provided by clinical pharmacists,while the clinical pharmacists have yet not reached the demands of medical staff and patients in regard to their evaluation. It is suggested that the clinical pharmacists should ascertain their work orientation,improve their work mode,participate the clinical work in full-time, complete their knowledge structure and ascent their pharmaceutical service level.

Objective To explore the value of applying multiple disciplinary team (MDT) in the clinical practice teaching of lymphoma. Methods 5-year program clinical medicine undergraduate students of 2012 were divided into experimental and control group randomly, with 30 cases in each group. The ex-perimental group received MDT in clinical teaching through MDT conference and cases analysis. The control group received conventional teaching mainly by smal class presentation and ward round . The effect of teaching was evaluated by examination and questionnaire. The data were analyzed through t-test and chi-square test by SPSS 20.0 software. Results The results showed the students' scores of the theory knowledge test of two groups were similar to each other, but the scores of discussional topic and clinical cases analysis were higher in experimental group than control group and statistically difference [(16.5 ±2.3)vs. (10.5 ±1.8);(37.5±2.5) vs.(27.5±1.8)], (P=0.000), and the final score of two groups showed statistically difference (93.5± 5.2 vs. 76.0 ±6.2) (P=0.000). Meanwhile, questionnaire survey of satisfaction showed that 27 students of experimental group (90.0%) were interested in this new teaching model, 29 students (96.7%) believed it im-proved understanding and memory to the process of lymphoma diagnosis and treatment, 25 students (83.3%) believed it could improved the ablility to diagnose and differential diagnose lymphoma and expanded their clinical view. 28 students (93.3%) had consolidated clinical thinking, and 26 students (86.7%) improved negotiation with patients. All issues were significantly better than control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical teaching model innovation based on MDT could help medical students use the cross-discipinary interviewing and make optimal treatment plan for patients. It is conducive to the cultivation of their diagnosis, differential diagnosis and clinical thinking ability, which is worthy of promotion in hematological clinical teaching.
