Practice and exploration of post competency-based assessment evaluation system for medical students / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Post competency-based medical education complies to the development and philosophy of modern medicine. This paper completely illustrates how to construct a scientific and diversified assessment evaluation system guided by post competency for medical students which combines formative assessment and summative assessment. Through the objective measurement and timely feedback of various abilities of medical students, the closed-loop feedback system of assessment and evaluation can be constructed to guide the exploration and practice of teaching process in reverse.

Pharmaceutical care for a patient with pancytopenia and liver injury induced by methimazole / 药学实践杂志

Objective To explore the treatment of pancytopenia and liver injury induced by methimazole and provide medication therapy reference for clinical pharmacists in clinical practice. Methods The clinical pharmacists provided clinical interventions by the evaluation of adverse drug reactions, assessment of the therapeutic effects, adjustment of therapeutic regime based on the patient′s disease condition. Results The physician adopted the recommendations from the clinical pharmacists. The patient with pancytopenia and liver injury induced by methimazole gradually recovered with biochemical indices back to normal levels. Conclusion The therapeutic outcome was improved with clinical pharmacist’s knowledge on medication, optimization of therapeutic regime and implement of pharmaceutical care.

EFFECT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL STRESS ON THE CONCENTRATION OF SERUM IRON IN RATS AND ITS MECHANISM / 营养学报

Objective To investigate the effect of psychological stress on serum iron concentration of SD rats and its mechanism. Method SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group (CG), psychological stress 1w group (PG 1w) and 2w group (PG-2w), and psychological stress 2w with 1w free group (PG 2w-1w). The animal model of stress was tested for 1w, 2w, and 2w with 1w free from stress. The iron concentration of serum, liver, spleen and the expression of liver hepcidin were detected by atomic absorption spectrometry and Western blot respectively. Result (1) Compared with control group, serum iron concentration of rats under stress decreased. (2) Free of psychological stress 1w later, serum iron concentration was not significantly changed. (3) Iron concentration of liver and spleen was increased significantly compared with control group, and the expression of liver hepcidin was also increased. Conclusion Psychological stress may cause serum iron of rats to decrease obviously, and it was restored after 1w free from psychological stress. The mechanism is supposed to be increase of iron storage in liver and spleen by hepcidin in rats under psychological stress.
