ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the teaching reform of internal medicine graduate students based on the concept of outcomes-based education (OBE).Methods:A total of 86 graduate students who studied in the Teaching and Research Section of Internal Medicine in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2019 to August 2020 were randomly divided into control group ( n=43) and observation group ( n=43). The control group adopted traditional teaching, and the observation group adopted the teaching based on the OBE concept. The evaluation of the academic performance of the two groups of graduate students and the recognition of the teaching mode by the graduate students were compared, and the improvement of the personal ability of the graduate students was evaluated. Meanwhile, the effect of teaching satisfaction and the improvement of learning ability of the graduate students was evaluated. SPSS 22.0 was used for t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The theoretical scores, general head and neck test scores, heart test scores, lung test scores, abdominal test scores, spinal and limb nervous system test scores, operation scores and total scores of graduate students in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05); students in the observation group believed that the teaching could improve their learning interest, improve the self-learning ability, improve communication and expression ability, improve teamwork ability, improve understanding and memory ability, improve internal medicine thinking ability, improve generalization ability, and improve clinical practice ability. All the above aspects were higher in observation group than control group ( P<0.05); the students in the observation group had 97.67% (42/43) recognition of teaching, which was higher than 83.72% (36/43) in the control group. Conclusion:Internal medicine teaching based on the concept of OBE can improve the academic performance and enhance the personal ability of graduate students, and the students are more satisfied with this teaching method.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate whether the individualized anticoagulation therapy based on CYP2C9 and VKORC1 gene is superior to empirical anticoagulation therapy after artificial heart valve replacement surgery in Uygur patients. Methods From December 2012 to December 2015, 210 Uygur patients who underwent artificial heart valve replacement surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were randomly assigned to a genetic anticoagulation therapy group (group A, n=106, 41 females and 65 males, aged 44.7±10.02 years) or an empirical anticoagulation therapy group (group B, n=104, 47 females and 57 males, aged 45.62±10.01 years) according to the random number table. CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes were tested in the group A and then wafarin of administration in anticoagulation therapy was recommended. Patients in the group B were treated with conventional anticoagulation. Patients in both groups were followed up for 1 month and coagulation function was regularly tested. Results The percentage of patients with INR values of 1.8-2.5 after 4 weeks warfarin anticoagulation treatment in the group A was higher than that in the group B (47.1% vs. 32.7%, P=0.038). The rate of INR≥3.0 in the warfarin anticoagulation therapy period in the group A was lower than that in the group B (21.6% vs. 26.5%, P=0.411). The time to reach the standard INR value and the time to get maintenance dose were shorter in the group A compared with the group B (8.80±3.07 d vs. 9.26±2.09 d, P=0.031; 14.25±4.55 d vs. 15.33±1.85 d, P=0.032). Bleeding occured in one patient in the group A and three patients in the group B (P=0.293). Embolic events occured in three patients in the group A and five patients in the group B (P=0.436). Conclusion Compared with the empirical anticoagulation, the genetic anticoagulation based on wafarin dosing model can spend less time and make more patients to reach the standard INR value. However there is no significant difference between the two groups in the ratio of INR≥3.0, bleeding and embolic events in the warfarin anticoagulation therapy.
