ABSTRACT
Introducción: Se conocen diversos tratamientos para tratar y curar la depresión. Entre los más utilizados se encuentran la psicoterapia y la medicación. La hipnosis clínica utiliza un discurso basado en la sugestión y en los reflejos condicionados del sueño, para lograr la estabilidad en la desregulación del ciclo sueño / vigilia, lo cual es un factor esencial en el tratamiento de las personas deprimidas por la COVID-19. Objetivo: Comparar la evolución en la calidad y cantidad de sueño en pacientes con depresión post-COVID que fueron tratados con medicación e hipnosis. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio explicativo-comparativo, y un diseño cuasi-experimental. La muestra fue de 40 pacientes que fueron ingresados en el Hospital Universitario Clínico Quirúrgico «Cmdte. Manuel Fajardo Rivero», de Santa Clara, entre enero y marzo de 2021, con COVID-19. En un grupo de pacientes se empleó el inventario de depresión de Beck y un cuestionario para evaluar la cantidad y calidad del sueño antes y después de la intervención con medicación; en el otro grupo se empleó la hipnosis. Se utilizó la estadística descriptiva. Resultados: En ambos grupos la terapia empleada fue efectiva, redujo los niveles de depresión y eliminó las alteraciones del sueño. Conclusiones: Ambas formas de tratamiento se pueden emplear para tratar la depresión y los desórdenes propios del sueño. El método sugestivo de despertar de sueño hipnótico a sueño natural fue tan efectivo como los psicofármacos empleados.
Introduction: various treatments are known to treat and cure depression. Psychotherapy and medication are among the most used. Clinical hypnosis uses a discourse based on suggestions and conditioned sleep reflexes to achieve stability in sleep-wake cycle dysregulation, which is an essential factor in the treatment of people depressed by COVID-19. Objective: to compare the evolution in sleep quality and quantity in patients with post-COVID depression who were treated with medication and hypnotherapy. Methods: an explanatory comparative study with a quasi-experimental design was carried out. The sample consisted of 40 patients who were admitted due to COVID-19 at "Cmdte. Manuel Fajardo Rivero" Clinical and Surgical University Hospital from Santa Clara between January and March 2021. Beck Depression Inventory and a questionnaire were used in a group of patients to assess the sleep quality and quantity before and after the intervention with medication; hypnosis was used in the other group. Descriptive statistics was also used. Results: the used therapy was effective in both groups, reduced levels of depression and eliminated sleep disturbances. Conclusions: both forms of treatment can be used to treat depression and sleep disorders. The suggestive method of awakening from hypnotic sleep to natural sleep was as effective as the psychoactive drugs used.

Since the implementation of the Measures for the Management of Radiation Workers’ Occupational Health in November 2007, it has played an extremely important role in protecting the occupational health of radiation workers. There are more than 700 000 radiation workers in about 100 000 workplaces with potential radiation exposure, as well as a large number of miners exposed to high levels of radon. As the radiation health monitoring project suggests, measures of occupational health management such as personal dose monitoring and occupational health examination of radiation workers have been widely implemented and achieved good results in the protection of radiation workers. However, the risks of chromosomal aberration and specific turbidity of the eye lens of radiation workers have increased in high-risk positions such as interventional radiology, nuclear medicine, and industrial flaw detection. The control of high radon exposure in miners needs to be strengthened. It is necessary to adapt to the new situation in view of new challenges and actively promote the revision of the Measures for the Management of Radiation Workers’ Occupational Health, so as to further improve the occupational health management of radiation workers in China.

ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo analyze the equity of medical and health resource allocation in 12 cities of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and to provide policy suggestions for further optimizing the allocation of medical and health resources. MethodsBased on two dimensions of geography and population， a comprehensive evaluation of the equity of medical and health resource allocation was conducted using location entropy， health resource density index （HRDI）， entropy-weighted TOPSIS method， and GIS spatial analysis. ResultsLocation entropy showed that the allocation of medical resources in each league city exceeded or approached 1 in the population dimension， but less than 1 in the geography dimension. HRDI revealed that the number of health institutions in Tongliao City was 8.3 times that of Alxa League； the number of beds， health technical personnel， practicing （assistant） physicians， and registered nurses in Wuhai City was 20.3 times， 18.2 times， 15.2 times， and 22.7 times that of Alxa League. The entropy-weighted TOPSIS method showed that the top three weighted indicators were registered nurses （24.14%）， health technical personnel （22.63%）， and practicing （assistant） physicians （21.13%）. Allocation of medical resources in Hulunbuir City， Xilinguole League， and Alashan League was significantly inequitable； GIS spatial analysis showed that the equity of medical resource allocation exhibited a decreasing distribution pattern from the central region to the western and eastern regions. ConclusionThere is a significant disparity in the equity of medical and health resource allocation among various leagues and cities， with resource allocation in the population dimension being better than in the geographical dimension. Allocation of medical and health human resources should be strengthened.
ABSTRACT
The paper is to explore how to carry out post-market technical evaluation of dietary supplements in China by referring to the experiences at home and abroad. Experiences of major countries and regions in the post-market evaluation of similar products of dietary supplements and China’s experience in drugs were systematically reviewed. Combined with the actual situation of the health food industry in China， suggestions were put forward for the post-market technical evaluation of health foods in China. There are many useful experiences worth learning from， such as the mandatory reporting responsibility of enterprises in the United States， a special scientific committee which provides long-term technical support in the European Union， post-market monitoring by enterprises in Australia， the establishment of relevant monitoring systems in Taiwan， the relatively mature regulatory system， evaluation system and management system in the field of drugs and medical devices， and the establishment of adverse reaction monitoring bases in the field of cosmetics， the responsibility of post-mark adverse reaction monitoring of food for special medical purposes by medical institutions， and the post-market management in various fields giving priority to safety. In combination with the current situation of China’s health food industry， five specific suggestions， such as promoting the construction of laws and regulations， are put forward.

To help medical doctors practicing Kampo medicine suggest appropriate acupuncture treatments for individual patients, a study group made up of 7 acupuncturists and 5 medical doctors developed an acupuncture curriculum. The group provided a learning program based on the curriculum for 16 medical doctors in charge of outpatient Kampo services in a research institute. The learning program consisted of a lecture and practical training, and a total of 4 sessions were held. At the end of each session, a test was conducted to examine the participants' level of understanding. After the completion of the learning program, a questionnaire survey was conducted to confirm the usefulness of the acupuncture curriculum for the practice of Kampo medicine. The mean number of participants per session was 10.8 ± 1.3. The mean test score was 9.3 ± 0.5 (full score : 10). In the questionnaire, 14 out of the 16 (88%) answered that the acupuncture curriculum was useful or relatively useful for the practice of Kampo medicine. On comparing the numbers of new acupuncture patients with a history of outpatient Kampo service use before and after the acupuncture curriculum, there was a 1.8-fold increase after it. The results support the usefulness of the acupuncture curriculum to understand acupuncture and practice Kampo medicine. Further evaluation is necessary.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To p rovide policy suggestions for the development and supervision of online drugstores in China. METHODS：By literature review ，the relevant literatures and policy documents about the development of online drugstores were searched，screened and sorted out to summarize the development process of China ’s internet drug trading mode and policy ，analyze the development status of China ’s online drugstores ；on the basis of the development experience of some developed countries ，the suggestions were put forward for China ’s relevant policies. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：China’s medical e-commerce started relatively late ，and the policies related to online drug trading were basically released during last 20 years. The number of online drugstores showed a growing trend. The online drugstores were geographically allocated widely but unevenly. They sold many varieties，and policies on selling prescription medicines were gradually liberalized. These online drugstores provided diverse payment and delivery choices ，but their pharmaceutical service needed to be improved. The development models of online drugstores in the United Kingdom ，the United States and Germany could be referred. According to the current situation of online drugstores in China ， combined with the development mode and operation strategy in foreign countries ，it is suggested to improve relevant laws and regulations，and strengthen legal support ；strengthen the government supervision to ensure drug safety ；use the industrial power to standardize medicine operation behavior ；set up the third part trading platform to promote medical insurance payment.
ABSTRACT
Este escrito se organiza en torno a las críticas de Adolf Grünbaum al psicoanálisis freudiano, haciendo foco en una de ellas: el papel de la sugestión del analista en la validación de los datos clínicos que apoyan sus hipótesis causales. Mostraré que en el propio desarrollo de las ideas freudianas podemos hallar un preciso abordaje de este asunto, que Grünbaum no ha tenido en cuenta y que conviene revisar. Concluiremos que el problema de la contaminación epistémica vía sugestión no constituye un obstáculo mayor en el camino de validación psicoanalítica a partir de los datos obtenidos clínicamente. De este análisis se desprende una importante implicación metodológica para la investigación en psicoanálisis: contrariamente a lo que muchos epistemólogos y psicoanalistas han extraído como corolario de la crítica de Grünbaum, los diseños extra-clínicos (de indudable valor en sí mismos), no devienen imprescindibles para el establecimiento de mejor evidencia empírica de las hipótesis psicoanalíticas.

This paper is organized around Adolf Grünbaum's criticisms of Freudian psychoanalysis, focusing on one of them: the role of the analyst's suggestion in the validation of clinical data that support his causal hypotheses. I will show that in the very development of Freudian ideas we can find a precise approach to this issue, which Grünbaum has not taken into account and which should be reviewed. I conclude that the problem of epistemic contamination via suggestion does not constitute a major obstacle in the path of psychoanalytic validation from the data clinically obtained. From this analysis, emerges an important methodological implication for research in psychoanalysis: contrary to what many epistemologists and psychoanalysts have extracted as a corollary of Grünbaum's criticism, extra-clinical designs (of undoubted inner value), do not become essential for the establishment of better empirical evidence of psychoanalytic hypotheses.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To study the development status of TCM enterprises of Nantong city and provide suggestions， and to promote the sustainable development of TCM enterprises of Nantong city. METHODS： Taking Nantong city as an example， questionnaires were issued to 15 TCM enterprises in Nantong （including 4 TCM decoction piece enterprises， 11 TCM pharmaceutical preparation enterprises）. The statistical analysis was carried out in respects of scale structure， development （including economic development and staff） and development potential （by enterprise R&D funds and R&D personnel input intensity） of enterprises during 2013-2017. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： In terms of the scale and structure of the enterprise， there were no large-scale enterprises in Nantong city， only 3 medium-sized enterprises， 12 small enterprises； the overall scale of enterprises was small； the overall concentration of TCM enterprises was not high， in which the market structure of TCM decoction piece enterprises was oligopolistic， and the structure of preparation enterprises was competitive. The concentration of TCM decoction enterprises was higher than that of TCM preparation enterprises. In terms of economic development， the annual average GDP and profit growth rate are 14.98％ and 19.09％ from 2014 to 2017； the economic development situation was good， but the brand variety advantage was not developed fully. In terms of staff， employee’s education level was mainly college degree （34.01％） and the staff category was mainly salesperson （32.73％）. In terms of the company’s development potential， enterprise R&D funds and R&D personnel input intensity were in low levels （average 2.96％， 11.32％ in 5 years）， the number of patents （16 in 2013 vs. 17 in 2017） and innovative products （7 in 2013 vs. 12 in 2017） increases slowly， and only one had opened up overseas markets. In response to the issues， TCM enterprises of Nantong city or other areas should merge and reorganize appropriately to expand the scale of the industry and improve the market concentration； increase research funds and talented personnel investment， insist the protection and in novation of TCM. In addition， build a big data “healthy cloud” platform to break the traditional industrial chain； at the same time， seize the “Belt and Road” policy finance and taxation opportunities to promote overseas and develop markets to promote the sustainable development of TCM enterprise.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To investigate the situation and existing problems of the naming of commercially available Chinese patent medicine （CPM） in China， and to put forward the improvement suggestions. METHODS： Announced in Dec. 31， 2017 by CFDA， there were totally 169 601 kinds of national coded drugs. Total of 35 513 kinds of CPM with drug approval number “Z” and 68 kinds of imported CPM with importing registration certificates “Z” was screened by using Excel 2013 software. Based on Naming Technical Guidelines for Generic Name of Chinese Patent Medicines （hereinafter referred to as the Guidelines）， the unqualified situation of domestic CPM were summarized， and unqualified domestic Chinese patent medicine were analyzed statistically in respects of dosage form， special population medication and area. RESULTS： There were 5 091 kinds of drugs named nonconformity with the “Guidelines”， accounting for 14.34％ of domestic CPM. The problems of naming mainly focused on exaggerated naming （1 723 kinds， 33.84％）， dosage form un-located after naming （1 118 kinds， 21.96％）， naming by endangered protected animals and plants （851 kinds， 16.72％）， naming by pharmacology and other related terms （848 kinds， 16.66％）. Names emboding “traditional cultural features” （1 324 kinds， 4.35％） took the lower proportion. Top 5 dosage forms of domestic CPM with unqualified naming were tablets （1 203 kinds， 23.63％）， capsules （821 kinds， 16.13％）， mixture （802 kinds， 15.75％）， pills （706 kinds， 13.87％）， granules （448 kinds， 8.80％）. The problems of special population medication for domestic CPM with unqualified naming concentrated on children’s medication （608 kinds， 11.94％）. The main manufacturers of domestic CPM with unqualified naming came from Guangdong （613 kinds， 12.04％）， Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region （371 kinds， 7.29％）， Jilin （265 kinds， 5.21％）， Shaanxi （245 kinds， 4.81％） and Beijing （233 kinds， 4.58％）. CONCLUSIONS： There are many problems in naming of commercially available domestic CPM in China， mainly reflecting as naming type， dosage form， pediatric drugs， etc. There are fewer names emboding “traditional cultural features”. It is suggested that we should further standardize the naming of CPM by strengthening and perfecting the management and examination system of CPM， highlighting the naming principles of Chinese traditional culture and protecting traditional classical brands.

ABSTRACT
Resumen En el marco de la investigación titulada: Práctica de los psicoanalistas en las instituciones de salud mental en el contexto latinoamericano. Un estado del arte (2000-2013), se mantuvo como eje la pregunta por la presencia del psicoanalista en contextos diferentes al dispositivo analítico clásico, el cual se enmarca en el ámbito de lo privado. Una referencia obligada en esta vía es aquella frase freudiana que evoca la aleación entre el oro puro del análisis y el cobre de la sugestión directa. El presente texto es una elaboración al respecto y sus consecuencias para una praxis psicoanalítica en el ámbito institucional. Para ello se revisaron distintas fuentes en la obra de Freud y en la enseñanza de Lacan, que, junto con otros autores, intentan dar cuenta de las dificultades y posibilidades para que ello sea viable. Se evidencia que los detractores de esta opción se concentran en lo imaginario del dispositivo, mientras que otros más orientados por la estructura del mismo y la función deseo del analista señalan la pertinencia de esta praxis por fuera del dispositivo clásico.
Abstract Within the framework of the research entitled: "Practice of psychoanalysts in mental health institutions in the Latin American context. A state of art (2000-2013) ", the question of the presence of psychoanalysts in contexts different from the classic analytical device, which is framed in the private sphere, was kept as the axis. An obligatory reference in this way is the Freudian phrase that evokes the alloy between the pure gold of the analysis and the copper of the direct suggestion. The present text is an elaboration on this and its consequences for a psychoanalytic praxis at the institutional level. For this, different sources were reviewed in the work of Freud and the lessons of Lacan, which together with other authors attempt to account for the difficulties and possibilities for this to be viable. It is evident that the detractors of this option concentrate on the imaginary of the device, while others are more oriented by the structure of the device and the desired function that the analyst points out.
ABSTRACT
Um dos fenômenos da atualidade que merece destaque é a alta popularidade da literatura de autoajuda. As obras desse gênero propõem o cultivo de práticas de influência interpessoal, que incorrem geralmente no recurso à sugestão, criticada por Freud desde antes do século XX. Com efeito, utilizando como principal referencial teórico a psicanálise freudiana, privilegiando a noção de sugestão e, de maneira complementar, a análise de conteúdo de uma obra representativa da autoajuda, o presente estudo objetivou analisar alguns dos mecanismos presentes em tal modalidade literária e discutir os fatores que influenciam na sua ampla aceitação hoje. Em termos conclusivos, aponta que a relação estabelecida entre autor e leitor na autoajuda, pautada por processos psíquicos de identificação e transferência em favor da adesão às propostas do autor, permite que este renove continuamente a promessa de conduzir o leitor ao sucesso. (AU)
One of the phenomena of contemporary times that deserve mention is the high popularity of self-help literature. The works of this genre encourage practices of interpersonal influence, which usually incur in the use of suggestion, criticized by Freud since before the twentieth century. Indeed, using Freudian psychoanalysis as the main theoretical framework, focusing the notion of suggestion and, in a complementary way, the content analysis of a representative work of self-help, this study aimed to analyze some of mechanisms present in such literary genre and discuss the factors that influence its wide acceptance today. Thus, points out that the relationship between author and reader in self-help, guided by psychological processes of identification and transfer in favor of accession to the proposals of the author, allows him continually to renew this promise to lead the reader to success.

Las obras de la literatura de autoayuda proponen prácticas de cultivo de influencia interpersonal, que generalmente incurren en el uso de la sugestión, criticado por Freud desde antes del siglo XX. El psicoanálisis freudiano fue el principal recurso teórico y metodológico para revisión de la literatura, privilegiando la noción de la sugestión y, de manera complementaria, el análisis de contenido de una obra representativa de la autoayuda, este estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar algunos de mecanismos presentes en tal literatura y discutir los factores que influyen en su amplia aceptación en la actualidad. En términos concluyentes, señala que la relación entre el autor y el lector en la autoayuda, guiada por los procesos psicológicos de la identificación y la transferencia a favor de la adhesión a las propuestas del autor, permite renovar continuamente esta promesa de conducir al lector hacia el éxito.
