ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Considering the disruptions imposed by lockdowns and social distancing recommendations, coupled with overwhelmed healthcare systems, researchers worldwide have been exploring drug repositioning strategies for treating severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). OBJECTIVE: To compile results from randomized clinical trials on the effect of dexamethasone, compared with standard treatment for management of SARS-CoV-2. DESIGN AND SETTING: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines in a Brazilian public university. METHODS: We sought to compile data from 6724 hospitalized patients with confirmed or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection. RESULTS: Treatment with dexamethasone significantly reduced mortality within 28 days (risk ratio, RR: 0.89; 95% confidence interval, CI: 0.82-0.97). Dexamethasone use was linked with being discharged alive within 28 days (odds ratio, OR: 1.20; 95% CI: 1.07-1.33). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that dexamethasone may significantly improve the outcome among hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection and associated severe respiratory complications. Further studies need to consider both dose-dependent administration and outcomes in early and later stages of the disease. PROSPERO platform: CRD42021229825.

ABSTRACT
Standardized training of resident doctors is the golden stage for clinicians to establish good clinical thinking. Although respiratory disease is common, there are serious and critical diseases, which need to develop clinical thinking and improve the analytical ability. The resident physicians' instructor should help residents to establish the correct diagnostic thinking through the following means: clinical demonstration teaching show, guidance of reading the relevant literature and books, strengthening the basic skills of collecting patients' history and physical examination, and guidance of appropriate use of auxiliary examination and analysis of the results. For the treatment thinking, solid theoretical knowledge and life-long learning ideas and habits can improve the successful rate of initial treatment. Furthermore, being familiar with the efficacy evaluation system and analyzing the reasons for the success and failure of the treatment will help the residents to develop a good therapeutic thinking. The good clinical thinking established by the residents in the department of respiration will be conducive to their own follow-up specialist training and career development.
ABSTRACT
It is an important teaching task how to make respiratory disease specialists to accept the standardization training of pulmonary function. However, the theory of pulmonary function is comparatively abstract and the training time is short, but the task is heavy. In order to explore a set of feasible training mode, the pulmonary function laboratory of Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University carries out various forms of training, such as compiling textbooks, establishing case database, using multimedia teach-ing, arranging one-to-one guided teaching, and training the ability of doctor-patient communication.

ABSTRACT
After years of respiratory medicine clinical practice teaching , we have discovered that there exist some problems such as teachers' job burnout, teachers' lowprofessional knowledge level of clinical teaching and lack of teaching ability, medical students' fear, low self-esteem, psycho-logi-cal fear and emotional weariness breeding as well as the patients and their family members ' refusal of practice because of their worrying about being a test and so on. To solve these problems , we have put forward some proposals such as recognizing and rewarding teachers to affirm their teaching levels , organizing teachers to participate in academic conferences, seminars, etc. to expand their professional knowledge in order to improve their overall quality. And at the same time, we have adopted PBL teaching method, applied multimedia technology and network platforms, put emphasis on basic skills training, the improvementof departmental rotation assessment, the establishment of teaching files and doctor-patient communication and other ways to improve clinical teaching quality and develop interns' clinical thinking ability to help them transitto clinicians.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the application effect of clinical pathway teaching in respiratory medicine. Methods Seventy clinical medical students of our department during 2007 to 2009 were randomly divided into two groups. The control group (35 students) was treated by traditional teaching ways, while the experimental group(35 students) was treated by clinical pathway teaching ways, with 5 to 6 students forming a small group. Teachers provided one copy of the CP version to each person in advance. Then progressive questions and discussions were conducted according to the diagnosis, dif-ferential diagnosis and treatment of CP. After its implementation for a certain time, students were co-mprehensively assessed by the practice examination and questionnaire and the statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS 17.0 version statistics software. Results The experimental group's total aver-age score was (90.00±4.00) points, while the control group's total average score was (76.00±7.20) points. There was significant difference between the two groups(P=0.001). The effect of these two kinds of teaching was evaluated and compared in stimulating interest in learning (P=0.002), improving the analytical ability(P=0.004),improving self-study ability(P=0.001), deepening the under-standing of the basic concepts(P=0.112), improving the innovation ability (P=0.005), improving the efficiency of learning(P=0.034), improving clinical comprehensive ability(P=0.016), and improving the ability of language expression(P=0.000), showing that teaching method of clinical pathway could significantly improve clinical teaching effect, and there was statistically significant difference between them. Conclusion Clinical pathway teaching has obvious advantages in cultivating students' diagnostic thinking and clin-ical ability to solve practical problems, and therefore it has better clinical teaching effect than the tra-ditional teaching method.
