ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the current status of interventional radiology discipline in the provincial-level and national cancer hospitals of China, and to provide supportive data for the future systematic construction of interventional radiology.Methods:A questionnaire was used to survey 32 provincial and national cancer hospitals of China. The survey included data such as discipline settings, medical treatment, medical education, and scientific research. Then descriptive statistical analysis was performed based on the data.Results:All 32 provincial and national cancer hospitals of China had interventional radiology services and were equipped with independent wards; the deployment rates of DSA, ultrasound, CT, and radiofrequency ablation equipments were: 100%(32/32), 81.3%(26/32), 40.6%(13/32), and 75.0%(24/32), respectively. Of all 32 hospitals, 27 (84.4%) had performed more than 1 000 interventional operations per year. The proportion of hospitals that had interventional subspecialties was 21.9% (7/32). As for the interventional radiology doctors in these hospitals, the ratio of doctors with a background of medical imaging specialty was 69.6%(256/368); the proportion of doctors with ages ≤ 45 years old was 72.0%(265/368); and the ratio of doctors with a master degree was 79.9%(294/368). Among the 32 hospitals, 22 (68.8%) had more than 500 000 yuan research funds in intervention radiology discipline, and 71.9%(23/32) had intervention radiology discipline postgraduate tutors.Conclusions:The overall development of interventional radiology discipline in provincial-level and national cancer hospitals is good. The discipline development pattern might set a good example for interventional radiology discipline construction in general hospitals.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To investigate the awareness and attitude of medical representative registration system among pharmaceutical marketers in Guiyang city. METHODS： A self-designed questionnaire survey about the awareness （full point 100） and attitude （total points ranged 17-85） of medical representative registration system was conducted among pharmaceutical marketers selected by the stratified random sampling in the six districts of Guiyang city， and the difference of awareness and attitude scores were compared among pharmaceutical marketers with different characteristics （12 aspects）， and relevant suggestions were made. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： A total of 220 questionaires were sent out， and 220 questionaires were collected among which there were 205 valid questionaires （effective rate of 93.2％）. Total awareness score of 205 pharmaceutical marketers was（55.17±21.20）points， with average correct rate of 55.17％. Pharmaceutical marketers from pharmaceutical companies scored significantly higher than those from other pharmaceutical companies； pharmaceutical marketers who mainly promoted prescription drugs scored significantly higher than those who mainly promoted other types of pharmaceutical products； pharmaceutical marketers who set up city public hospitals as the target market scored significantly higher than those who set up other markets； pharmaceutical marketers who learned about the system from media reports scored significantly higher than those who learned about the system from other sources， above 4 were with statistical significance （P＜0.05）. Meanwhile， overall attitude scores （higher score means higher recognition） of 205 pharmaceutical marketers were （58.76±12.84） with average score rate of 69.13％； the score of pharmaceutical marketers who learned about the system from media reports was significantly lower than other pathways， the score of pharmaceutical marketers who had received training was significantly higher than those who hadn’t， the score of pharmaceutical marketers in the enterprises where formulated countermeasure plans was significantly higher than those in the enterprises where hadn’t formulated， above 3 were with statistical significance （P＜0.05）. The knowledge level of Guiyang pharmaceutical marketers on the registration system of medical representatives needs to be improved. The marketers generally took positive attitude towards the policy， and believed that medical institutions， pharmaceutical companies and medical representatives would benefit from it. To promote the construction of pharmaceutical marketing compliance， medical institutions， pharmaceutical companies and pharmaceutical marketers should take the initiative to cooperate with the formulation and implementation of medical representative registration system.

ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the state of self-congruence in nurses and discuss their rela-tion with psychological health. Methods Self coasisteney and congruence scale (SCCS) and state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI)were used to test 216 nurses. Results The degree of self-congruence of nurses was relatively low,difference existed in self-congruence among nurses in different departments (P<0.05). Self-congruence was significantly related with state-trait anxiety(P<0.01). Conclusions Selective psy-chological intervention needs be given to some nurses to maintain their psychological health.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the characteristics of traditional Chinese medical syndromes and syndrome patterns in diabetic nephropathy (DN) from delta regions of pearl river. Methods A cross-section and retrospective trial was carried out in 292 DN inpatients from four hospitals(the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of TCM, Foshan Hospital of TCM, Shenzhen Hospital of TCM, and Zhongshan Hospital of TCM) from January, 2003 to December, 2005. Demographic information, past history, symptoms and laboratory parameters of the patients were collected.Results Of the enrolled 292 patients, there were 14 in the clinical stage Ⅱ, 42 in stage Ⅲ, 210 in stage Ⅳ, and 26 in stage Ⅴ. The manifestations of TCM syndrome were dominated as lassitude and weakness (69.9%), loss of energy (54.1%), dry mouth (49.3%), aching waist (42%), dry mouth and throat (38%), numbness of extremities (69.9%), dry eyes (33.2%) and dry stool (31.5%), but the signs of frequent sighing, night sweating and tidal fever were less found. For the deficiency syndrome patterns, there existed deficiency of kidney (37.7%), spleen (27.7%), heart (8.9%), liver (3.8%) and lung (2.1%) when differentiating the syndromes according the five zang-organs; there was deficiency of yin (32.5%), Qi (19.5%), blood (9.6%) and yang (8.2%) when differentiating the syndromes according to Qi, blood, yin and yang; there were complex deficiency syndromes such as deficiency of Qi and yin (40.4%), deficiency of spleen and kidney Qi (26.4%), deficiency of lung and kidney Qi(4.8%) and deficiency of yin and yang (3.8%). For the excess syndrome patterns, there were blood stasis syndrome (49.7%), damp-heat syndrome (33.2%), water-dampness syndrome (25%), and Qi stagnation syndrome (7.5%). Conclusion The syndrome patterns of DN present the following characteristics: leading deficiency syndromes being kidney deficiency and spleen deficiency when differentiating the syndromes according the five zang-organs, being yin deficiency and Qi deficiency when differentiating the syndromes according to Qi, blood, yin and yang, and complex deficiency syndromes being Qi-yin deficiency and spleen-kidney Qi deficiency. The leading excess syndromes are blood stasis syndrome and damp-heat syndrome. The manifestations of DN are characterized by the concurrence of deficiency and excess, cold and heat. The pathogenesis of DN is classified into deficiency in the root and excess in the branch. The deficiency syndrome mainly involves Qi and yin, and is located in spleen and kidney. The excess syndrome is characterized by blood stasis and damp-heat, and by water-dampness and dampness-turbidity in the late stage of DN. In one word, the pathogenesis of DN is characterized by deficiency of Qi and yin, and blood-stasis blocking kidney collaterals.
