Uveitis is a group of inflammatory diseases affecting the uveal tract, retina, retinal blood vessels and vitreous. Due to its complex etiology, various entities, diverse and lack of constancy in treatment, some patients can experience visual impairment and even loss. In view of the fact that blindness caused by uveitis is mostly incurable and occurs usually in young and middle-aged people, it accounts for an important part of blinding eye diseases and has attracted worldwide attention. With the continuous development of precision medicine, clinicians will face new problems and challenges in disease diagnosis, and further in-depth research is needed to explore more optimized and efficient diagnostic processes and examinations to improve the diagnosis of uveitis in China.
Objective To summarize the online practice teaching experience in laboratory medicine during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic, and explore a new practice teaching mode of laboratory medicine which can provide a reference for improving the efficiency and quality of laboratory medicine education. Methods From June 8th, 2020 to June 30th, 2020, an online questionnaire survey was conducted in teachers and students who participated in online internship teaching and learning during the COVID-19 epidemic to evaluate the effect of online internship teaching and compare the advantages and disadvantages of online and offline internships. ResultsA total of 65 valid questionnaires were collected from 35 students and 30 teachers. There was no statistically significant difference in the satisfaction scores of intern students between online and offline internships [median (minimum, maximum): 100 (80, 100) vs. 100 (80, 100), P>0.05]. Among the teachers surveyed, 90.0% thought that the pre-teaching preparation for online internship teaching was more complicated and time-consuming, 60.0% thought that the online teaching was more difficult, and 63.3% thought that online internship could not achieve the expected results. Both the teachers and students believed that online and offline internships had their own advantages and disadvantages, and they could learn from each other. Conclusions The present online practice model cannot replace the traditional offline practice. A diversified practice model combining online and offline can help further develop and improve medical laboratory practice teaching.
ObjectiveTo understand the current state of medical graduate student labor education in the new era and its effectiveness, to explore the mechanism by which labor education affects labor practices, and to identify intervention points for improving labor education. MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted from July 3 to 13, 2022, on the labor education of 216 medical graduate students from 10 double-first-class universities. The relationship between labor education, labor awareness, labor ability, and labor practices was analyzed. ResultsDescriptive analysis results showed that medical graduate students received little labor education. The structural equation model results showed that labor education positively impacted labor awareness (γ=0.712) and labor ability (γ=0.755), and labor awareness and labor ability positively impacted labor practices (γ=0.400, γ=0.635), indicating that labor education has a positive impact on labor practices. ConclusionTo improve the weak state of medical graduate student labor education, it is necessary to increase related training and courses, enrich the types and content of labor education, strengthen the assessment mechanism of labor education, and strengthen the responsibilities of instructors.
Abstract: Objective To analyze the characteristics of pathogens isolated from patients with lung cancer after surgery, and provide instructions for the prevention and treatment of postoperative infection. Methods A retrospective investigation of the pathogenic microbiology data of 159 patients（142 males and 17 females with average age at 61.8±9.6 years) with lung cancer after surgery in West China Hospital from January 2009 to December 2011 was performed.We got the specimen from the patients by routine methods, identified the pathogens, and conducted drug susceptibility tests in vitro. Results The pathogens were mainly isolated from sputum of the patients （90.6%, 155/171）. Canidia albicans（25.7%, 44/171）, Klebsiella pneumonia（15.2%, 26/171）, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-A. baumannii（13.4%, 23/171）and Pseudomonas aeruginosa（8.2%, 14/171） were the predominant species. Among A. calcoaceticus-A. baumannii isolates, 39.1%（9/23） of them were multidrug resistant strains. And 23.1%（6/26）of K. pneumonia isolates produced extended spectrum beta-lactamases. P. aeruginosa isolates showed high in vitro susceptibility to the antibacterial agents. Conclusion Pathogens are mainly isolated from sputum of patients after surgery for lung cancer. Canidia albicans and gram-negative bacilli are predominant isolates and should be the major targets for the prevention and treatment of postoperative infection.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids, acetaminophen and antimicrobial drugs in the treatment of intrapartum fever in labor analgesia. MethodsThe PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, VIP, and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of glucocorticoids, acetaminophen, and antimicrobial drugs for intrapartum fever in labor analgesia from inception to June 30, 2023. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included literature. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsA total of 10 RCTs involving 1 337 women were included. Meta-analysis showed that the use of glucocorticoids reduced the incidence of intrapartum fever in women with labor analgesia compared with the control group (OR=0.52, 95%CI 0.33 to 0.82, P<0.01). But there was no statistically significant difference between acetaminophen or antimicrobial drugs and the control group. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the use of glucocorticoids can reduce the incidence of intrapartum fever in labor analgesia, but the use of acetaminophen and antimicrobial drugs cannot reduce the incidence of intrapartum fever. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
