ABSTRACT
Las restricciones por la pandemia del COVID-19 supusieron la transición abrupta a una enseñanza online tanto del contenido teórico como práctico y de la evaluación final de las asignaturas que imparte el departamento en varias titulaciones. En previsión de que el siguiente curso académico 2020-21 se vería totalmente afectado, se desarrollaron una serie de materiales didácticos propios, como la elaboración de guiones de teoría y práctica que incorporaron imágenes de modelos anatómicos, prosecciones, anatomía radiológica y anatomía ecográfica. La percepción de esta innovación fue evaluada por los estudiantes a través de una encuesta en línea y sus respuestas mediante una escala tipo Likert. Participaron 346 estudiantes de las titulaciones de Fisioterapia (n= 66), Medicina (n= 169), Podología (n= 44) y Terapia Ocupacional (n= 67). Las puntuaciones medias más altas correspondieron a los estudiantes de Podología y Terapia Ocupacional, ambas presentaron diferencias significativas con los otros tres subgrupos de alumnos (p<.0001). El puntaje promedio más bajo correspondió a los estudiantes de Medicina de segundo año académico que presentó significancia con los otros cuatro subgrupos de estudiantes (p<.0001). Se analizaron las carencias del sistema educativo en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid reveladas por la pandemia del Covid19. Esta crisis ha puesto de manifiesto la necesidad de que los educadores médicos en general y los anatomistas en particular estén capacitados en el uso de la tecnología disponible y en la creación de sus propios materiales didácticos multimedia.
SUMMARY: Restrictions due to COVID-19 pandemic meant an abrupt transition to online teaching. This change affected teaching, practical sessions and assessments of the subjects taught by the department in various degrees. In anticipation that the following academic year 2020-21 would be totally affected, a series of didactic materials were therefor developed. These materials included the preparation of theory and practice scripts that incorporated images of anatomical models, pro-sections, radiological anatomy, and ultrasound anatomy. Perceptions by the students of these innovations were recorded through an online survey and their responses evaluated through a Likert-type scale. 346 students from Physiotherapy (n= 66), Medicine (n= 169), Podiatry (n= 44) and Occupational Therapy (n= 67) degrees participated. The highest average scores corresponded to the students of Podiatry and Occupational Therapy, both presented significant differences with the other three subgroups of students (p<.0001). The lowest average score corresponded to medical students in their second academic year, which presented significance with the other four subgroups of students (p<.0001). The shortcomings of the educational system of the Complutense University of Madrid that were highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic were analyzed. This crisis underscored the need for medical educators in general, and anatomists in particular, to be trained in the use of available technology and to produce their own multimedia teaching materials.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore a method of applying Micro-course in medical imaging teaching reform and to evaluate its effect. Methods The Micro-course platform was constructed by means of network and digital information technology, and micro-courses were made and uploaded. Two large classes of five-year clinical medical students attending medical imaging courses were randomly selected as control group (n=84) and experimental group (n=86). At the end of the course, the academic and practical skills of the two groups of students were compared, and the teaching situation was investigated by scores of electronic questionnaires to evaluate the effect of the method. Results The application of Micro-course platform was successful. The scores for theoretical and practical examination of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). 163 valid questionnaires were retrieved. Compared to the control group, the experimental Micro-course had a higher total score in the 7 positive items, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Micro-course has a positive effect on the teaching reform of medical imaging.
ABSTRACT
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD), a clinical metabolic stress-induced liver injury, is expressed as a feature of intrahepatic cell steatosis and excessive fatty deposition. NAFLD is a rising cause of common chronic liver disease worldwide. However, due to the lack of idealized NAFLD experimental models, the pathogenesis of NAFLD remains to be elucidated and consequently the research and development of therapeutic drugs against NAFLD has been making a relatively slow progress. Therefore, the establishment of cell and animal models is of great significance for exploring its pathogenesis and screening relevant experimental drugs. In this paper, the experimental models involved in NAFLD are reviewed and its advantages and disadvantages are evaluated further in vitro and in vivo, which provides a sufficient theoretical basis and model selection for the investigation and development of innovative drugs against NAFLD.
ABSTRACT
To evaluate the clinical application of clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for pelvic inflammatory disease and provide reference for the revision of the Guideline. Questionnaire research was conducted from applicability and application evaluation. A total of 1 311 copies of valid questionnaires were obtained, including 717 questionnaires on applicability evaluation and 594 questionnaires on application evaluation. There were 83 items from 4 aspects in the applicability questionnaire. In statistical agreement rates of those items to reflect the application status of the Guideline, the rates of 8 items were all more than 95% except for rates of "content integrity", "comparison with the diagnosis and treatment scheme of his/her unit (individual)" and "economy of clinical application", 94.70%, 93.86% and 93.17% respectively. In statistical agreement rates of those items to reflect the quality of the Guideline, the rates of 3 items were all more than 97%, except the rate of "whether syndrome classification is reasonable" item was 95.26%. Among the items that reflect the local purchase difficulty and price evaluation of Chinese patent medicine recommended in the Guideline, most clinicians thought the prices were modest. There were 56 items from 6 aspects in the application evaluation questionnaire. In statistical agreement rates of those items to reflect the application rationality of the Guideline, the rates of 3 items were all more than 96%, except rate of "whether syndrome classification is reasonable" item was 91.58%. In statistical agreement rates of those items to reflect the clinical application effect of the recommended regimen in the Guideline, the traditional application of traditional Chinese medicine decoction had generally better application effect, whereas Chinese patent medicines were less effective. In statistical agreement rates of those items to reflect the overall evaluation of clinical application, the rates of "overall effect" and "overall safety" were all more than 96%, except the rates of "overall economy" item was 92.42%. It indicates that the overall effect of this Guideline is relatively well. It is suggested to improve the classification of syndrome differentiation and increase the species of Chinese medicine decoction and Chinese patent medicines, and to standardize the duration and course of medication. The next revised work should not only uptake the experiences of prominent TCM doctors and all kinds of research achievements, but also regularly update and strengthen the publicity of the Guideline.

A questionnaire survey of 1 000 clinicians having experience in treating uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections from different levels of hospitals was conducted to mainly evaluate the applicability and effectiveness of clinical application of clinical practice guideline on traditional Chinese medicine therapy alone or combined with antibiotics for uncomplicated lower urinary tract infection(hereinafter referred to as Guideline). The research was conducted with the three-level quality control strictly throughout the process, and the data was real and reliable. The survey's results showed that: most clinicians considered that the Guideline had good clinical applicability. The availability and price of the recommended medicine were moderate. Traditional Chinese medicine had obvious features and advantages in treating lower urinary tract infection for it could reduce the usage of antibiotics and shorten the course of antibiotic application. In the recommendation section, clinicians proposed increasing medication guidance, updating the Guideline timely, as well as increasing treating methods and techniques, strengthen propaganda and promotion, and improve the use of evidence-based methods. In the evaluation of effectiveness, the majority of clinicians agreed that the definition in both traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine and differential diagnosis in the Guideline were accurately described and the basic principle of treatment as well as the treating method of TCM were recommended appropriately. The TCM formulas and Chinese patent medicine had good effect. Some clinicians suggested refining the syndrome differentiation of stranguria. Some clinicians considered that the formulas and herbs recommended in Guideline didn't have obvious effect and some had doubts about the manipulation of fumigation and washing in the part of other methods recommended in Guideline. Moreover, specification and procedure of manipulation of fumigation and washing using herbs and the acupuncture included in characteristic TCM therapy treating uncomplicated lower urinary tract infection remained to be developed.

ABSTRACT
This study aims to evaluate the adaptability and applicability of Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cancer in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The assessment methods included adaptability assessment and applicability assessment. The adaptability assessment was based on the questionnaire survey to evaluate the familiarity, utilization, quality, and clinical application of the Guidelines; applicability assessment was based on the prospective observation of 853 clinical cases to investigate the applicability and effect of the Guidelines, including effectiveness, economy and safety. Statistical analysis for basic description, construction of different comparison groups for cross or hierarchical statistical test, multi-factor analysis, and confounding factors were used in the study. Adaptability assessment results showed that 63.03% of TCM doctors considered guidelines as good or very good applicability and 4.24% of TCM doctors considered guidelines with very poor applicability in clinical practice. For the applicability evaluation, TCM doctors considered that the "overall efficacy and technology level", "satisfactory degree" and "adaptability in clinical practice" of the guideline were 85.46%, 80.43% and 69.40% respectively. The results showed that guideline was well known among TCM doctors, especially junior TCM doctors. Adaptability and applicability of Guidelines were totally good but the quality and adaptability of the intervention schemes were still week, so the quality of Guidelines should be improved by revision.
