ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the construction and implementation effect of clinical-thinking patterned curriculum for parallel graduate students with "running through clinical diagnosis and treatment process."Methods:In this study, 94 Batch 2016-2017 graduate students with clinical medical professional degree in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital were selected as the research subjects. Among them, 48 Batch 2017 parallel graduate students were selected as the experimental group. The curriculum of clinical-thinking patterned training of "running through the clinical diagnosis and treatment process" was used. In addition to participating in the degree courses and residency courses, a series of training to improve the clinical-thinking ability were introduced. And 46 Batch 2016 parallel graduate students were divided in the control group, using a traditional curriculum and only participating in degree courses and residency courses. The differences among mini-clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) scores, direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) scores, objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) scores and students' satisfaction were compared by t test, chi-square test and repeated measures analysis of variance. Results:The Mini-CEX scores showed the average scores of other aspects except humanistic care were higher than those of the control group, and the score of communication skills was significantly higher than that of the control group [(6.55±0.98) vs. (5.77 ±1.12)], with significant differences ( t=3.62, P<0.001). In the DOPS scores, except for the skills of communication with patients, ability to consider patient's feelings and practice of occupational literacy, the average scores of other aspects of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group, and the real operation-ability score of clinical skills was significantly higher than that of the control group [(6.38 ± 1.38) vs. (5.53±1.23)], with a significant difference ( t=3.12, P=0.002). In terms of the outpatient receiving station, the emergency treatment station, the clinical thinking station①, the clinical thinking station②, the specialist skill station, the auxiliary examination station and the case writing station, their OSCE scores at different stages in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and in terms of clinical thinking station①, the score of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group, with a significant difference ( F=6.51, P=0.012). The satisfaction rate of the experimental group in terms of curriculum was higher than that in the control group except for the future career development, and in improving logical-thinking ability, the score of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group, with a significant difference ( χ2=19.18, P<0.001). Conclusion:The curriculum of clinical-thinking ability with "running through the clinical diagnosis and treatment process" can enhance the clinical practical ability of parallel graduate students, making them meet the residential academic standards as soon as possible and effectively promoting the training quality of the students.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the efficacy of minimally invasive puncture and drainage versus small bone window craniotomy in the treatment of hypertensive basal ganglia hemorrhage. Methods:Seventy-three patients with hypertensive basal ganglia hemorrhage who received treatment in Hequ County People's Hospital from April 2018 to December 2020 were included in this study. They were divided into a minimally invasive puncture and drainage group ( n = 38) and a small bone window craniotomy group ( n = 35) according to surgical methods. Clinical efficacy and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results:At 3 months post-surgery, the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score in the minimally invasive puncture and drainage group was significantly lower than that in the small bone window craniotomy group [(3.58 ± 1.23) points vs. (6.87 ± 0.97) points, t = 12.62, P < 0.001]. Barthel index in the minimally invasive puncture and drainage group was significantly higher than that in the small bone window craniotomy group [(62.15 ± 6.78) points vs. (43.15 ± 7.15) points, t = 11.65, P < 0.001]. The total response rate in the minimally invasive puncture and drainage group was significantly higher than that in the small bone window craniotomy group [92.11% (35/38) vs. 74.3% (26/35), χ2 = 4.21, P < 0.05]. The incidence of complications in the minimally invasive puncture and drainage group was significantly lower than that in the small bone window craniotomy group [5.2% (2/38) vs. 25.7% (9/35), χ2 = 6.18, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Minimally invasive puncture and drainage have better clinical efficacy and fewer postoperative complications in the treatment of hypertensive basal ganglia hemorrhage than small bone window craniotomy. Therefore, minimally invasive puncture and drainage for the treatment of hypertensive basal ganglia hemorrhage are worthy of clinical promotion.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To evaluate the efficacy and safety of progesterone in the treatment of acute traumatic brain injury systematically， and to provide reference for clinical use. METHODS： Retrieved from Cochrane library， ClinicalTrials， Web of Science， PubMed， Embase， CBM， CNKI and Wanfang database， randomized controlled trial （RCTs） about progesterone （trial group） versus placebo or blank control （control group） in the treatment of acute traumatic brain injury were collected. After literature screening， data extraction and quality evaluation by risk bias evalution tool of Cochrane systematic evaluator manual 5.1.0， Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software. RESULTS： A total of 10 RCTs were included， involving 2 652 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed that there was no statistical significance in mortality[RR＝0.77，95％CI（0.56，1.07），P＝0.12]， the incidence of septicemia [RR＝1.11，95％CI（0.77，1.60），P＝0.59] or elevated liver enzymes[RR＝1.30，95％CI（0.68，2.50），P＝0.43]. The number of patients with favorable neurological outcome[RR＝1.23，95％CI（1.05，1.43），P＝0.008] in trial group was significantly more than control group. Results of subgroup analysis of mortality showed that there was no statistical significance in the mortality of patient’s GCS≤8 [RR＝0.79，95％CI（0.57，1.10），P＝0.16]， that of patient’s GCS≤12[RR＝0.69，95％CI（0.23，2.10），P＝0.52] or that of patient’s GCS ranging from 9 to 12 [RR＝0.78，95％CI（0.26，2.35），P＝0.65] between 2 groups. Results of subgroup analysis of neurological outcome showed that there was no statistical significance in the number of favorable neurological outcome of patient’s GCS≤8 [RR＝1.18， 95％CI（0.98，1.43），P＝0.09]， the number of favorable outcome of patient’s GCS≤12[RR＝1.15，95％CI（0.87，1.51），P＝0.32] and the number of favorable neurological outcome of patient’s GCS ranging from 9 to 12[RR＝2.07，95％CI（0.24，17.71），P＝0.51]. CONCLUSIONS： Progesterone can improve the prognosis of neurological function in patients with acute traumatic brain injury with good safety but cannot reduce mortality.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory granuloma in central nervous system(CNS)to provide reference for clinic.Methods Retrospective data included 8 patients with CNS inflammatory granuloma in Department of Neurosurgery,Shanxi People's Hospital,2012 -2015.We analyzed the imaging features, postoperative symptoms,blood and cerebrospinal fluid changes and prognosis.Results 8 cases all received surgical treatment.All the symptoms were improved,and the CT showed that the lesions were disappeared.All the patients had recovered to normal life and work.Conclusion The diagnosis of CNS inflammatory granuloma is difficult.Clinical manifestations are lack of specificity.The blood and cerebrospinal fluid laboratory examination have no abnormal changes.CT and MRI are the main diagnostic methods.Postoperative pathology is the gold standard for diagnosis.The large lesion,frequent episodes of epilepsy,severe neurological deficits and possibility of brain tumor all should be treated by surgery.
ABSTRACT
Pituitary adenoma,which originates from the pituitary gland,is a common tumor of the nervous and endocrine system,accounting for about 8% to 15% of the brain tumor.The peak incidence of pituitary tumor is 30 to 60 years old.Most of them show slow and limited growth,but 30% to 40% of them show aggressive growth.Surgical treatment has been the first choice so far(except for the prolactinoma),and at present,the domestic scholars advocate that the whole tumor should be cut as far as possible in the case of the most important structure,and carries on the comprehensive treatment.In this study,the comprehensive treatment of pituitary adenomas has been reviewed.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the application of the mini-mental status examination (MMSE)cognitive assessment in the patients with brain glioma before and after surgery. Methods Using MMSE,36 pastients with primary brain glioma were subjected to the cognitive assessment before surgery, after surgery,and 3 monthsr after surgery. Results The quantitative cognitive assessments with MMSE before surgery revealed the hidden cognitive dysfunction patients.The quantitative cognitive assessments after surgery showed that surgeons might need to protect the non-function area and to form the idea of cognitive function in patients with glioma.Conclusion MMSE assessment is a simple,understandably,and convenient method having good compliance of patient. It may be effectively used to assess cognitive impairment for patients with glioma and worth being studied continuously and used widely in the clinic practice.
