Construction and reflection of medical curriculum of optometry & ophthalmology for undergraduates in five-year program / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Since 2016, enrollment of students for optometry & ophthalmology specialty of five-year program has expanded in China, and China Medical university has become the pioneer to recruit students to this major in Northeast China. With reference to our national situation, this paper focuses on how to help students form good professional ethics, gain professional knowledge, professional skills and scientific research ability, so as to enable them not only grasp basic theories and skills of clinical medicine, but also be skilled at optometry & ophthalmology; the construction of systematic curriculum of optometry & ophthalmology should be actively explored with the aim of comprehensive medical education as the foundation, systematic education of optometry & ophthalmology as its unique feature and education of humanistic medicine as the concept". Therefore, we innovatively put forward a teaching model of "basic-core of clinical medicine-professional direction and characteristic development courses", thus to provide a reference for training applied and compound Optometrists and ophthalmologists who are urgently in need at present in China.

Comparison of Fixation Effects of Three Different Complex Fixatives on Mouse Lens Tissue / 中国医科大学学报

Objective To compare the effects of three kinds of fixative solutions on paraffin section of mouse lens tissue and optimize the fixing?method of paraffin section in mouse lens tissue. Methods Three kinds of conventional fixatives were selected for the test ,including the conven?tional Davison’s solution,modified Davison’s solution and 10%neutral buffered formalin. Mice eyeball tissues were fixed with three different fixa?tives,embedded,sliced and then stained with HE method. The paraffin slices were observed under the light microscope. Results The structures of lens and retina fixed in conventional Davison ’s fixative solutions were clear and intact ,and the cells were arranged regularly and compactly. There was no eyeball distortion,contraction and retinal detachment in the eyeballs fixed in modified and conventional Davison’s fixative solution. However,the ones fixed in 10%neutral buffered formalin showed eyeball distortion and contraction,space and spherules. Conclusion The mice lens slides made from tissues fixed by conventional Davison ’s fixative solution are better than fixed by modified Davison ’s fixative solution and the 10%neutral buffered formalin fixed ones.
