ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of real clinical case centered situation simulation examination model in clinical medicine. Methods Two classes were randomly selected from 2008 grade clinical medicine majors, respectively as test group(n=158) and control group(n=156). Final examination of test group includes usual performance, case-oriented situation simulation examination (COSSE) and final written examination. Traditional methods were used in control group. The same paper was used in final written examination of the two groups. Scores of written examination and question-naires were used to evaluate the COSSE model. Data were processed using SPSS 16.0 statistical software;t and chi-square tests were used to analyze the data;P<0.05 signifies that the difference is statistically sig-nificant. Results Scores of final examination in test group were higher than those in control group(P<0.001). Times of independent completion of history taking, physical examinations and medical record writing were more in test group than in control group(P=0.002,0.017,0.048). Conclusions Contents and methods of COSSE is conducive to improving student's professional comprehensive ability.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the total anti-oxidation capacity(T-AOC), superoxide dismutase(SOD), nitric oxide synthase(NOS) and nitric oxide(NO) in testis homogenate of the rats’ with chronic fluorosis induced by drinking NaF solutions with different concentration. Methods 24 male Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups (8 rats per group) including control group, low-fluoride(LF) group, high-fluoride(HF) group, which were exposed to fluoride by means of freely drinking tap water containing NaF with 0, 100 and 200 mg/L respectively for 20 weeks. T-AOC, NOS activities and SOD activity of the testis tissue were determined by colorimetry , xanthine oxidase method and nitrate reductase method respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the T-AOC of the testis tissue increased significantly in LF group and decreased significantly in HF group. SOD activity of the testis tissue showed on significant difference among the control group, LF group and HF group . Compared with the control group, the levels of NOS and NO decreased significantly in LF group and increased significantly in HF group. Conclusion The T-AOC of the testis tissue exposed to low level of fluoride presents a compensatory increase induced by the inhibited activity of NOS and synthesis of NO. Higher level of fluoride may increase reactive oxygen species(ROS), and cause abnormal expression of induce nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) and increased synthesis of NO in the testis tissue.
