Combined application of DOPS and Mini-CEX in clinical skill evaluation / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Clinical skills training is an important part of medical students' training, which requires the selection of appropriate evaluation tools. At present, the direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) and mini clinical evaluation exercise (Mini-CEX) are widely used, however, it is not comprehensive to use only one of the tools for evaluation. Based on the application situation of DOPS and Mini-CEX in clinical skill assessment at home and abroad, this paper will elaborate the combined application of DOPS and Mini-CEX in clinical teaching and standardized residency training for resident physicians, so as to make more comprehensive and systematic evaluation.

Progress in inorganic nanomaterials for photothermal therapy of cancer / 肿瘤

Traditional methods of cancer treatment such as surgical resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy have certain limitations, and their treatment effects are not always satisfactory. As a new cancer treatment method, photothermal therapy based on nanomaterials has attracted people's attention due to its characteristics of minimally invasive, high efficiency, low side effects and inhibition of cancer metastasis. At present, there are a variety of inorganic or organic nanomaterials used in the field of photothermal cancer treatment, and have shown great application prospects. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of a variety of inorganic nanomaterials for photothermal therapy as well as their research progress are reviewed.

The effect of group interpersonal psychotherapy on depression disorder of college students abused in childhood / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

ObjectiveTo study the effect of group interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT-G) on depression disorder of college students abused in childhood.Methods 28 college students meeting criteria of DSM-Ⅳ for depression disorder were divided into two groups:the treatment group( 14 patients)and the control group (14 patients).The treatment group was treated with IPT-G.Depression Symptom Checklist and Global Assessment Function(GAF) were measured in two groups before and after treatment.Results ①Patients in treatment group had better efficacy than those in control group( 100％ vs 57.1％,x2 =7.636,P ＜ 0.01 ).②The treatment factor and time factor had main effect to depression symptom and GAF(F =4.23 ～ 184.93,P ＜ 0.05 ),also had interaction effect(F=15.87 ～82.36,P ＜ 0.01 ).Time factor and abuse factor had main effect to depression symptom and GAF(F =7.44 ～ 183.9,P ＜ 0.05 ),but no interaction effect (F =0.01 ～ 4.72,P ＞ 0.05 ).③IPT-G,depression symptom and quality of life before treatment,age and only children had remarkable predictable functions on depression symptom(P ＜ 0.05).IPT-G had striking predictable functions on GAF (P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionIPT-G can improve depression symptom,mental and Social Function,while childhood abuse has no effect.

Development,reliability and validity of the dissociative trait scale / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective To develop the Dissociative Trait Scale(DTS),and examine its reliability and validity. Methods Based on literature and research work,a preliminary questionnaire was designed to measure dissociative trait. 1306 college students completed the DTS and Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90). Results Exploratory factor analysis extracted eight factors. The percentage of variance explained was 57.69％. The Cronbach α-coefficient of the total scale and the eight subscales ranged from 0. 830 ～ 0. 969, the test-retest reliability ranged from 0.575 ～ 763 (P ＜ 0.01 ). The scores of DTS significantly positively correlated with the scores of SCL-90 (P ＜0.01 ). Conclusion The DTS has acceptable psychometric quality,and can be applied to assess dissociative traits in Chinese college students.
