Clinical problem-solving using video simulation: an investigation

This paper examines the use of videotape simulation as a research method for the exploration of clinical problem-solving, the challenges posed and the strategies employed to overcome the difficulties encountered are discussed. The simulation forms part of a larger comparative study of outcomes of pre-registration nurse education programmes, commissioned by the English National Board for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting.

葛根汤颗粒喷雾干燥工艺条件试验研究

目的：优选葛根汤颗粒啧雾干燥的最佳工艺条件。方法：应用正交设计法，以每小时药粉产率及有效成分含量为考察指标，对影响葛根汤喷雾干燥过程的因素进行考察。结果：正交试验法设计的三个因素中，浸膏的相对密度影响显著，入塔风温影响较显著。结论：颗粒最佳工艺条件为：入塔风温：170℃，气流量：700L／h，浸膏相对密度：1．22，在此条件下，葛根汤颗粒有效成分中葛根素及芍药苷的含量明显高于原湿法制粒制剂。     

如何上好医学生药品质量选修课

医学生在以后的工作中会经常接触到药品，而药品质量的好坏直接关系到患者的生命安全，因此在医学生中开设药品质量选修课非常必要。本文从教学方法、教学手段、教学内容的衔接等方面提出了一些观点和具体方法。     

Design and conduct of occupational epidemiology studies: I. Design aspects of cohort studies

Cohort and case-control studies are two standard approaches for investigating the etiology of occupational diseases. This paper, which is the first of a four-part series, contains a review of the design features of occupational cohort studies. Topics discussed include the basic features of prospective and historical cohort studies, options for defining the cohort, disease incidence ascertainment, and considerations involved in planning an occupational cohort study. Subsequent papers in this series will focus on data analysis of occupational cohort studies and the design and analysis of occupational case-control studies.

Comparison of computer-assisted learning with tutorial teaching in a group of first-year dental students

Two identical groups of first-year dental students were instructed in the pathology of dental caries and periodontitis using computer-assisted learning (CAL) or tutorial teaching (TT). A cross-over arrangement, in which the first group was taught about dental caries by CAL and periodontitis by TT and the second group in the reverse order, allowed comparison of the two methods. The comparison included a knowledge test and completion of a questionnaire. CAL and TT were equally effective as far as acquisition of knowledge was concerned. Students felt pressurized with CAL and had problems with note-taking. They liked a teacher to be present. Nevertheless, CAL was an acceptable method of instruction and was more economical, in terms of staff involvement, than TT.     

An Improved Method of Removing Polyurethane Foam-Covered Gel Prostheses

One of the advantages of polyurethane foam-covered prostheses has been that in the first 5 to 10 years after their use, the amount of capsular contraction was found much less than when similar ``slick' prostheses were used. Another advance was their fixation to the surrounding tissue thus giving a more natural appearance and movement with the muscles when the arms were moved in any direction. The formation of a thick capsule also acted as a protection against gel granuloma due to rupture of the prosthesis and has been thought to be a factor in the lower capsule contraction rate. The greatest disadvantage has been that its removal was extremely difficult and this has continued up until the technique described in this paper has been introduced.
