Development of a trail running injury screening instrument: A multiple methods approach

ObjectiveTo develop a trail running injury screening instrument (TRISI) for utilisation as clinical decision aid in determining if a trail runner is at an increased risk for injury.DesignMultiple methods approach.MethodsThe study utilised five phases 1) identification of injury risk factors 2) determining the relevance of each identified risk factor in a trail running context, 3) creating the content of the Likert scale points from 0 to 4, 4) rescaling the Likert scale points to determine numerical values for the content of each Likert scale point, and 5) determining a weighted score for each injury risk factor that contributes to the overall combined composite score.ResultsOf the 77 identified injury risk factors, 26 were deemed relevant in trail running. The weighted score for each injury risk factor ranged from 2.21 to 5.53 with the highest calculated score being 5.53. The final TRISI includes risk categories of training, running equipment, demographics, previous injury, behavioural, psychological, nutrition, chronic disease, physiological, and biomechanical factors.ConclusionThe developed TRISI aims to assist the clinician during pre-race injury screening or during a training season to identify meaningful areas to target in designing injury risk management strategies and/or continuous health education.     

刘中勇从“气血瘀滞”论治不寐的临证经验

不寐,现代医学称睡眠障碍,是一种临床常见病和多发病,本病发病原因尚不明确,通常不伴明显器质性病变,病人自觉症状重,西医尚无明确的治愈方法。祖国医学很早就认识到本病,积累了丰富的经验。刘中勇教授在古人的基础上提出从"气血瘀滞"的角度论治不寐,临床取得较好疗效,本文将从病因病机、理论探析、辨证论治三个方面介绍其相关经验,供同行参考。     

Toxicological evaluation of Yulangsan polysaccharide in Wistar rats: A 26-week oral gavage study

Although numerous studies have proven the medicinal values of Yulangsan polysaccharide (YLSP), the toxicity of this active ingredient is unknown. In the acute toxicity study, a single oral administration of 24 g/kg YLSP caused neither toxicological symptoms nor mortality, and the LD₅₀ was estimated >24 g/kg. In the chronic toxicity study, we administered doses of 0, 0.6, 1.2 and 2.4 g/kg YLSP in rats by oral gavage for 26 weeks followed by a 3-week recovery period. There was no mortality or remarkable clinical signs observed during this 26-week study. Additionally, there were no toxic differences in the following parameters: body weight, food consumption, hematology, clinical biochemistry, organ weight, and macroscopic findings. There were no adverse effects on histopathology observed in males or female rats treated with YLSP. Based on the results, the no-observed-adverse-effect-level of YLSP in rats is greater than 2.4 g/kg when administered orally for 26 consecutive weeks.     

360度评价在住培学员岗位胜任力评价中的应用

目的运用360度评价对我院住培学员的岗位胜任力进行评价,对学员岗位胜任力的现状进行探讨分析。方法使用问卷调查表分别从专业基地教学主任、学员指导教师、同专业学员及学员本人的角度,对2017级222名住培学员的岗位胜任力进行360度评价,利用SPSS22.0对数据进行统计分析。结果连续两年的测评,住院学员8类岗位胜任力的自评和他评得分低于满分,学员在临床基本能力、医患沟通能力、掌握与运用医学知识、团队合作能力4项内容的评分,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);同时学员在临床基本能力、医生职业精神与素质、医患沟通能力、掌握与运用医学知识、团队合作能力5项内容的评分较上一年相比,差异也有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论调查结果提示360度评价可帮助住培学员提高岗位胜任力,后续培训应围绕调查结果和以岗位胜任力为导向来调整与设置,需增加人文属性内容的培训以及再量化培训测评内容、指标和进一步完善考评反馈机制。     

临床药师工作评价初探综述

随着我国医疗机构临床药师队伍的不断壮大，其在医疗服务中发挥着越来越重要的作用，对其工作进行绩效考核也是当今医疗领域的重要内容。以现有文献为基础，对国内外临床药师绩效考核体系进行分析，发现现有体系可分为为基于临床药师职责、基于临床药师业务流程、国外临床药师绩效考核体系三个方面；通过结合医疗机构的实际情况对现有绩效考核体系进行分析，发现存在考核指标和标准确定困难、考核难以做到实时性和延续性等问题，并针对这些问题提出清晰职责定位、重视临床药师价值体现等修改说明。     

Impact and Predictors of Noncircular Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Shapes on Estimating Aortic Stenosis Severity by Means of Continuity Equations

Determining aortic stenosis (AS) severity is clinically important. Calculating aortic valve (AV) area by means of the continuity equation assumes a circular left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). The full impact of this assumption in calculating AV area is unknown. Predictors of noncircular LVOT shape in patients with AS are undefined.In 109 adult patients with AS who underwent multiplanar transesophageal echocardiography, we calculated AV area by means of the standard continuity method and by a modified method involving planimetric LVOT area.We found 54 circular, 37 horizontal-oval, 8 vertical-oval, and 10 irregular LVOTs. Area derived by direct planimetry correlated better with the modified than the standard continuity method (r=0.89 vs r=0.85; both P=0.0001). Valve areas of patients with mild, moderate, or severe AS by planimetry were more often mischaracterized with use of the standard than modified method (29 vs 18; P <0.0001). Horizontal-oval AV area derived by planimetry (1.28 ± 0.55 cm²) was underestimated by the standard method (1.05 ± 0.47 cm²; P=0.001), but not by the modified method. Congenital AV morphology and low cardiac index were the only multivariate predictors of horizontal-oval shape. Low cardiac index was the only predictor of noncircular shape.More than half our patients with AS had noncircular LVOTs. Using the modified method reduces mischaracterizations of AS severity. Congenital AV morphology and low cardiac index predict horizontal-oval or noncircular shape. These data suggest the value of direct LVOT measurement to calculate AS severity in patients who have congenital AV or a low cardiac index.
