ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the value of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in evaluating the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HOT) in treating spinal cord injury.Methods:The modified Allen′s method was used to induce a traumatic spinal cord injury in 30 rats who were then divided randomly into an injured group and a treatment group, each of 15. The treatment group was given HOT twice a day for 3 days, then once a day for a total of 4 weeks. The injured group did not receive HOT. DTI was performed (along with Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) evaluation) at 0h, 6h, 24h, as well as 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after the operation. Two-factor repeated measures ANOVA was conducted to analyze any differences in the DTI results: the fractional anisotropy, mean apparent diffusivity, radial diffusivity and axial diffusivity, as well as the BBB scores. LSD t-tests were performed to analyze the significance of the differences at different time points.Results:At each time point after 24h the average FA value of the treatment group was significantly higher than the injured group′s average, while its average MD and RD values were significantly lower. Beyond 14 days the average AD value of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the injured group. The treatment group′s average BBB score was also significantly higher at all the time points beyond 3 days.Conclusions:DTI results can evaluate spinal cord function and provide valuable information for the dynamic assessment of hyperbaric oxygen therapy after a traumatic spinal cord injury, and the therapy promotes the recovery of motor function, at least in rats.
ABSTRACT
Medical curriculum integration is of great significance for reforming traditional medical education models and cultivating new medical talents with competency. On the basis of reviewing the concepts and development history of medical curriculum integration in China, this article sorts out three relatively mature medical curriculum integration models based on the practice of medical education reform in China, namely, organ-system-based curriculum model, and problem-based curriculum model and modular curriculum integration model. It also points out the difficulties of the current curriculum integration reform in medical colleges and universities from the aspects of the construction of teaching staff, the construction of integrated curriculum teaching materials, the design and connection of curriculum, and the assessment and evaluation. Finally, we should deeply analyze the concept of curriculum integration and create a curriculum model suitable for the reality of China's medical education in practice, hoping to provide reference for the practice of medical curriculum integration reform in China.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the current situation of general practitioners' occupational pressure in Heilongjiang Province, and explore its relationship with professional identity and perceived organizational support. It aims to provide references for the construction of general practitioners and the development of general medical education.Methods:The general situation questionnaire, perceived organizational support scale, occupational pressure scale, and professional identity scale were applied through network and site surveys for collecting data. A total of 288 questionnaires were collected with 263 valid questionnaires (91.3%). Pearson correction analysis and bootstrap analysis were performed for data analysis.Results:The average score of occupational pressure among general practitioners was (115.95±22.40), and the results of Pearson correction analysis showed that perceived organizational support was negatively correlated with occupational pressure ( r=-0.413, P<0.01) and positive correlation with professional identity ( r=0.587, P<0.01). There were also significant negative correlations between professional identity and occupational pressure ( r=-0.442, P<0.01). Moreover, the mediating effect showed that professional identity had a certain mediating effect on the relationship between perceived organizational support and occupational pressure (LLCI=-0.2039, ULCI=-0.0760, P<0.05). Conclusion:General practitioners' occupational pressure was at a high level, which can be reduced through improving the perceived organizational support and professional identity.
ABSTRACT
Objective To examine the current situation of the career plateau among anesthesiologists and analyze the impact of occupational stressors on it. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted on the anesthesiologists. A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed and 278 questionnaires were effectively collected. Statistical analysis using SPSS 19.0 was performed to assess the status quo of career plateau among anesthesiologists. Pearson correlation analysis and stepwise regression analysis were used to analyze the influence of occupational stressors on career plateau . Results The average value of occupational stressors among anesthesiologists was (3.22±0.55), and the average value of career plateau was (3.90±0.70). Occupational interest in the occupational stressors of anesthesiologists is negatively correlated with the occupational plateau (r=-0.552, P<0.01), and career development is negatively correlated with occupational plateau (r=-0.541, P<0.01) as well. Both occupational interest and career development show a negative predictive effect on the career plateau (β=-0.359, P<0.01 andβ=-0.334, P<0.01, respectively). Conclusion Career plateau among anesthesiologists is at a medium-to-high level. Occupational interest and occupational development in occupational stressors have a negative predictive effect on occupational plateaus, so hospital managers should pay attention to them.

ABSTRACT
In order to explore the influence of sodium hyaluronate on knee osteoarthritis [KOA] patients synovial fluid interleukin -1beta [IL-1beta] and analyze its clinical mechanism, this study analyzed 40 cases of KOA patients in our hospital's orthopaedic department, randomly divided them into two groups: Sodium hyaluronate group [group A] and normal saline group [group B], each consists 20 patients. Besides, we selected another 20 patients as normal control group. Group A treated knee joint cavity by injecting sodium hyaluronate, and group B injected knee joint cavity in equal amount of normal saline, once a week for five weeks. Collect respectively knee joint synovial fluid in patients of group A and group B before treatment and after five weeks of treatment, detect the content of knee joint synovial fluid IL-1betain of all the three groups by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA]. We can conclude that [1] IL-1beta content of knee joint synovial fluid in KOA patients before treatment was significantly higher than healthy people; [2] IL-1beta content of group A knee joint synovial fluid after treatment was significantly reduced than before treatment, there was no significant difference for group B IL-1beta content before and after treatment; [3] there was no significant difference between group A knee joint synovial fluid IL-1beta content after treatment and healthy people. Thus it can be proved that content of IL-1beta in knee joint synovial fluid KOA patients is higher than healthy people; sodium hyaluronate can reduce the content of IL-1beta in synovial joints and can be effective in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis
