南通市居民健康知识水平现状及对策

为全面了解和准确掌握南通市各行各业、中小学校健康知识的知晓情况,对创建国家卫生城市健康教育工作进行效果评估。调查显示,南通市11个片区健康知识的总知晓率居民为93.42%,学生为91.08%。要真正提高全体市民的健康教育水平,下一步必须采取三大对策,即:形成“抓反复、反复抓”的常态机制;加大健康教育投入;教育部门加强全市学生的健康知识普及工作,对卫生部门列入学校卫生的指标加以考核。只有这样,南通市的健康教育工作才能跃上新台阶。

Blockade of LTB4-induced chemotaxis by bioactive molecules interfering with the BLT2-Gαi interaction

BLT2, a low-affinity leukotriene B₄ (LTB₄) receptor, is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family and is involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases such as asthma. Despite its clinical implications, however, no pharmacological inhibitors are available. In the present study, we screened for small molecules that interfere with the interaction between the third intracellular loop region of BLT2 (BLT2_iL3) and the Gα_i3 protein subunit (Gα_i3), using a high-throughput screening (HTS) assay with a library of 1040 FDA-approved drugs and bioactive compounds. We identified two small molecules—purpurin [1,2,4-trihydroxy-9,10-anthraquinone; IC₅₀ = 1.6 μM for BLT2] and chloranil [tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone; IC₅₀ = 0.42 μM for BLT2]—as specific BLT2-blocking agents. We found that blockade of the BLT2_iL3-Gα_i3 interaction by these small molecules inhibited the BLT2-downstream signaling cascade. For example, BLT2-signaling to phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/Akt phosphorylation was completely abolished by these molecules. Furthermore, we observed that these small molecules blocked LTB₄-induced chemotaxis by inhibiting the BLT2-PI3K/Akt-downstream, Rac1-reactive oxygen species-dependent pathway. Taken together, our results show that purpurin and chloranil interfere with the interaction between BLT2_iL3 and Gα_i3 and thus block the biological functions of BLT2 (e.g., chemotaxis). The present findings suggest a potential application of purpurin and chloranil as pharmacological therapeutic agents against BLT2-associated inflammatory human diseases.     

A systematic review of resident‐as‐teacher programmes

Context Residents in all disciplines serve as clinical teachers for medical students. Since the 1970s, there has been increasing evidence to demonstrate that residents wish to teach and that they respond positively to formal teacher training. Effective resident‐as‐teacher (RaT) programmes have resulted in improved resident teaching skills. Current evidence, however, is not clear about the specific features of an effective RaT programme. Objectives This study was performed in order to investigate the effectiveness of RaT programmes on resident teaching abilities and to identify the features that ensure success. Methods of assessment used to ascertain the effectiveness of RaT programmes are also explored. Methods The literature search covered the period between 1971 and 2008. Articles focusing on improving resident teaching skills were included. Each study was reviewed by two reviewers and data were collected using a standard abstraction summary sheet. Study outcomes were graded according to a modified Kirkpatrick's model of educational outcomes. Results Twenty‐nine studies met review inclusion criteria. Interventions included workshops, seminars, lectures and teaching retreats. Twenty‐six studies used a pre‐ and post‐intervention outcome comparison method. Subjective outcome measures included resident self‐evaluation of teaching skills or evaluation by medical students, peers and faculty members. Objective outcome measures included written tests, evaluation of teaching performance by independent raters and utilisation of objective structured teaching examinations. One study objectively measured learning outcomes at the level of medical students, utilising the results of an objective structured clinical examination. Overall resident satisfaction with RaT programmes was high. Participants reported positive changes in attitudes towards teaching. Participant knowledge of educational principles improved. Study methodologies allowed for significant risks of bias. Conclusions More rigorous study designs and the use of objective outcome measures are needed to ascertain the true effectiveness of RaT programmes. Future research should focus on determining the impact of RaT programmes on learning achievement at the level of medical students.     

下呼吸道感染鲍曼不动杆菌ESBLs表型及基因型检测

目的分析引起下呼吸道感染产超广谱β-内酰胺酶(ESBLs)鲍曼不动杆菌的耐药情况及其β-内酰胺酶(BLA)耐药基因类型。方法采用微量稀释法测定临床分离的35株鲍曼不动杆菌对21种抗菌药物的敏感性、三维试验法检测ESBLs采用聚合酶链反应(PCR)及序列分析的方法分析BLA基因型。结果29株(82.9%)ESBLs阳性,其中14株(40.0%)合并产AmpC酶。所有菌株均对亚胺培南、美洛培南、头孢哌酮/舒巴坦和多粘菌素E敏感,其余抗生素的耐药率在40.0～100.0%之间。35株TEM型扩增全部阳性,任选2株测序结果均为TEM-1型。有15株菌株扩增到SHV型BLA基因,经测序13株为SHV-12型ESBLs,另2株(HZ01株和HZ29株)为2种新发现的SHV型BLA,分别被命名为SHV-48和SHV-56。结论临床分离的引起下呼吸道感染鲍曼不动杆产ESBLs比例很高,多重耐药状况极其严重,至少存在4种不同类型的β内酰胺酶基因,基因型分别为TEM-1、SHV-12、SHV-48和SHV-56。
