ABSTRACT
From July to August 2018, a survey on the awareness of diabetic foot screening was conducted using the online questionnaires posted on the WeChat group. From 107 trainees in General Practitioner Teacher Training Program of Beijing Xicheng District and 50 general practitioners working in Chinese Academy of Sciences, 145 valid questionnaires were received. All 145 participants worked in community health care settings, including 105 general practitioners, 76 had 10 to 20 years of service, and 98 had undergraduate degree. The survey showed that 75.9% (110/145) heard the diabetic foot screening and knew that screening should be done for all diabetic patients; 98.6% (142/145) knew that the screening should include medical history, foot skin, neuropathy, vascular status, and 73.1% (106/145) also knew that screening should include the foot bone, joint deformities and footwear selection; 21.4% (31/145) had participated in training related to diabetic foot screening. It is suggested that the awareness and knowledge of diabetic foot screening among Beijing community medical personnelare not sufficient, and more training opportunity is necessary for them.

ABSTRACT
A well - established residency standardized training system is crucial for cultivating qualified general practitioners(GPs). The syllabus has regulated the goals, objectives, contents and forms of training, but not proposed the concrete and effective teaching and assessment models. This article reflects the existing problems in GP training regarding teaching faculty,rotation plan, outpatient teaching, feedback and evaluation mechanisms as well as the assessment methods and contents,the article also gives specific suggestions for future improvement in order to train competent GPs.
ABSTRACT
Urinary tract infection(UTI)is a common disease of the urinary system. Based on a case of male outpatient with primary acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis and the relevant guidelines, this article analyzes the identification, diagnosis and differential diagnosis as well as comprehensive management of uncomplicated upper urinary tract infection, in order to provide information and clinical thinking for general practitioners.
ABSTRACT
This research summarized the exploration of English salon teaching on students in Department of General Practice,Peking University Health Science Center,illustrating thatthis teaching method was helpful to improve the students' English proficiency and theory of medicine,to promote communication and cohesion of the department,and to enhance the GP concept and competency.Based on the existing problems of English salon teaching,this research put forward the corresponding countermeasures so as to provide optimizing reference for teaching of GP,which included:(1)To encourage students to be active to participate inEnglish salon,correct the students' learning attitude and improve their learning methods,pay attention toteaching skills and take advantage of situational dialogue training methods;(2)To cultivate students' clinical thinking of diagnosis and treatment,urge the students to refer toliterature in time,takenotes and solve problemsas appropriate,as well as to promote supervisors' participation;(3)To recommend English salon teaching as an extension for thedelayed case-sharing.
ABSTRACT
Common cold is the most common upper respiratory tract infection.No antibiotic use for common cold has been international consensus,while the irrational antibiotic use and subsequent antibiotic resistance become an important issue of public health security.This article reviews the current status of antibiotic use for common cold and its related factors.
ABSTRACT
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common microvasscular complication in diabetic patients.It is necessary for general practitioner to recognize the early DKD,and give individualized treatment and comprehensive management.This article presents a patient with diabetic kidney disease,to whom individualized treatment and comprehensive management were given.Hopefully the case-based learning would help general practitioners to early recognize DKD and to give timely treatment and effective control of diabetic nephropathy.
ABSTRACT
As a powerful reserve force for primary care institutions, general practitioners (GPs) undergoing standardized training will be essential to solve the pediatric problems of first visit to primary medical institutions and coordinated care delivery system in the future, which puts forward new require-ments for the training of post competencies of GPs.However,the training and evaluating systems for GPs in Pediatric Department still need further exploration. This article tried to summarize the two-month rotating arrangement and its advantages for GPs in Pediatric Department of a general hospital.Based on the forgotten theoretical knowledge,superficial understanding of the diseases and individual teachers' poor teaching moti-vation, this article suggested reinforcing the theoretical basis of GPs through exploring multiple learning channels and increasing self-learning enthusiasm,strengthening the training and rewarding system of teachers to promote the specialist-GPs teaching, as well as promoting the set-up of Department of General Practice and taking the advantage of key disciplines in teaching hospitals to develop characteristic teaching model of general practice.
