Association between Retinal Vascular Geometric Changes and Cognitive Impairment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

0.05). Similarly, no significant difference was detected in retinal arteriolar tortuosity (Z=0.91) and venular tortuosity (Z=1.31) (both p>0.05). However, the retinal arteriolar FD (mean difference: −0.03, 95% CI: −0.05, −0.01) and venular FD (mean difference: −0.03, 95% CI: −0.05, −0.02) were associated with cognitive impairment.CONCLUSIONS: A smaller retinal microvascular FD might be associated with cognitive impairment. Further large-sample and well-controlled original studies are required to confirm the present findings.

Application of problem-based learning in clinical practice teaching / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective To explore the effects of problem-based learning (PBL) on improving intern doctors' clinical thinking and problem-solving capacities in clinical practice teaching.Methods PBL teaching courses were designed and used among 72 intern doctors come from 2010 grade clinical medical major (experiment group)and traditional teaching model was applied in 55 intern doctors come from 2009 grade clinical medical major ( control group).The PBL teaching effectiveness was evaluated through expert comment,exam and questionnaire survey.Test was conducted concerning the score of objective theoretical test on clinical thinking and the quality of case report writing.Results There were differences between experiment group and control group in theoretical test score and case report writing quality ( P ＜ 0.01 ).According to the results of questionnaire survey,teachers and students thought that the PBL teaching mode was better than traditional teaching mode in cultivating students' clinical thinking ability and problem solving ability.Conclusion The teaching effect of PBL in clinical practice is satisfactory.PBL teaching can effectively develop the students' clinical thinking and problem-solving capacities and play an active role in improving education quality and promoting education reform.
