ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the expression of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and Chitinase-40 (YKL-40) in acute cerebral infarction and the value of combined detection in prognosis evaluation.Methods:118 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei Northern University from January 2016 to June 2019 were selected as the research objects. According to the cerebral infarction volume, the patients were divided into small infarction group (<5 cm 3), middle infarction group (5-10 cm 3) and large infarction group (>10 cm 3). 108 healthy people were selected as the healthy control group. The serum levels of Cav-1 and YKL-40 were compared in the 3 groups, and the correlation between the degree of cerebral infarction and serum levels of Cav-1 and YKL-40 was analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic value of the expression levels of Cav-1 and YKL-40 in patients with acute cerebral infarction; the patients were followed up for one year and the prognosis was evaluated by modified Rankin Scale (mRS); the correlation between serum Cav-1 and YKL-40 and prognosis was analyzed. Results:The expression levels of serum Cav-1 and YKL-40 in patients with acute cerebral infarction were significantly higher than those in healthy group ( P<0.001). The serum levels of Cav-1 and YKL-40 were positively correlated with the infarct volume of acute cerebral infarction ( r=0.854, P=0.004; r=0.867, P=0.002). ROC curve analysis showed that the sensitivity, Youden index and area under ROC curve of Cav-1 (21.78 μg/L) combined with YKL-40 (158.69 ng/ml) in the diagnosis of acute cerebral infarction were 85.59%, 0.532 and 0.896 (95% CI: 0.741-0.932), respectively, which were significantly higher than those of single index ( P<0.05). At 8 and 12 months of follow-up, the proportion of death and mRS score in the positive group were significantly higher than those in the negative group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The serum Cav-1 and YKL-40 levels are significantly higher in patients with acute cerebral infarction. The combined examination of Cav-1 and YKL-40 can improve the diagnostic efficiency and has potential application value for early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of patients.
ABSTRACT
With the development of science and technology,medical simulation has been applied extensively.The application of simulation technique in teaching hospitals has become a new choice in modern medical education.As the most basic and important clinical ability,airway management has become a popular training program in China's teaching hospitals.This paper summarizes the current situation of the simulation training of airway management in teaching hospitals at home and abroad,concludesthe existing problems in the simulation teaching of airway management of teaching hospitals in China,such as narrow range of training objects,lack of professional teaching staff,unscientific curriculum design and outdated training model,etc.Then puts forward the countermeasures of expanding the training coverage,establishing the professional teaching team,designing the curriculum design of science,and introducing advanced simulation equipment to improve the quality of simulated teaching.
ABSTRACT
Objective To improve the clinical skill training courses in order to meet the new challenges and different requirements. Methods Totally 327 clinical physicians of different levels in 36 departments were enrolled and 286 physicians were randomly surveyed with the questionnaire , including subjects' general characteristics, participation rate, training courses and training model. Results Among the trainees, most of them were attending physician and resident physician, and their participation rate was 88.5%(77/87) and 90.0% (172/191) respectively. The most popular and well acknowledged training courses were emergency treatment course such as AHA basic/advanced life support course. Training model like ‘group class, one topic, one hour’ was well accepted by 84.1%(275/324) physicians and course time of 16:30-17:30 was preferred by 65.5% (214/327) physicians. Conclusions A series of most popular and significant training courses are developed. More important-ly, physicians' real need and new expectation to the training course are well recognized, which is im-portant to plan the further training program and courses.
