Resilience is widely discussed and applied across multiple disciplines, with its concept having evolved in the field of hazards and disasters over recent decades. However, there remains a lack of a resilience concept specifically applicable to infectious disease outbreaks, which can lead to misidentification of key issues in outbreak prevention and control, hindering the effective application of this concept. This study aims to provide a clear definition of resilience against infectious disease outbreaks. Building on the fundamental meaning of resilience and its application to hazards and disasters, the research has identified and developed several essential elements for resilience against infectious disease outbreaks by comparing infectious diseases with other types of natural hazards. This study then proposes that resilience against infectious disease outbreaks is the capacity to effectively prevent, detect, respond to, and control outbreaks without seriously affecting essential functions of health and social systems, which could be measured by the intensity of infectious diseases that an area can effectively manage. The concept and scope of resilience proposed in this study provide a valuable framework for improving regional capacity to better prepare for potential epidemic and pandemic threats in the future.

Purpose This study compares doctor staffing level and the scale of medical education in China with those of other countries and proposes policy recommendations for future adjustments to the scale of China's medical education. Design/Approach/Methods This study employs a literature review and descriptive analysis. Findings China had 1.98 medical doctors per 1,000 people in 2018, ranking 85th out of the 193 member-states of the World Health Organization (WHO). In 2017, China had 1.99 practicing doctors per 1,000 people, only ranking above Turkey (1.88) in Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. China had only 10.28 medical graduates per 100,000 people—placing in the bottom third of OECD countries. China's provision of 1.4 medical schools per 10 million people was also significantly lower than the global average (3.9). However, the average number of students enrolled in medical schools (509) in China was significantly higher than the global average (160). Originality/Value Although the scale of admission in undergraduate medical education must be expanded in China, this needs to be achieved while controlling the average number of medical students per school and reducing enrollment in low-quality medical schools. Furthermore, it is necessary to establish new medical schools while improving the operating level of existing ones.

我国临床医学教育培养了大量的临床医学人才,为服务公众医疗健康需求和健康中国建设提供了有力支撑.本文聚焦我国高等临床医学教育管理、人才培养体系、人才培养规模和结构、质量保证保障体系等,论述我国临床医学教育现状、存在的问题和进一步改革发展的建议.我国高等临床医学教育应该顺应新时代健康中国建设的新要求,基于我国国情,进一步加强医教协同,完善医学教育管理的体制机制和人才培养体系;面向卫生健康行业需求,优化我国临床医学人才培养的规模、结构和布局;遵循医学教育规律和临床医学教育标准,不断优化人才培养模式,提升医学生胜任力;坚持质量优先,建立健全质量保障体系,保障资源投入.
Objectives:To review and summarize the development of China's medical schools, existing issues and put forward policy suggestions based on the perspective of domestic and international comparison.Methods:Descriptive analysis and literature review were implemented.Results:After 150 years' development, the number of China's medical schools reached 192 in 2020. However, there is still a serious shortage of medical schools if taking into account of the large population in the country. The number of medical schools per 10 million persons in China was only about one third of the world average level. The teaching quality of some medical colleges is not satisfactory, and the quantity of highly qualified medical colleges is insufficient. Some other weakness also exist, including large scale of enrollment per school, mal-distribution of medical schools in different regions and lack of a professional administration entity at the national level.Conclusions:China should improve the top-level design and making a national development plan for construction and development of medical schools. Multiple approaches should be taken to steadily increase the number of medical schools. A national organization for professional administration should be established to improve the macro management of medical schools. Finally, Chinese government should play a crucial role in facilitating the construction of medical schools in developing areas.
课程体系设置的合理性是实现人才培养目标的前提条件,在很大程度上决定了教育产品的最终质量.对美国3所一流大学的医学博士(MD)课程体系研究后发现:美国MD课程体系可分为临床见习前、临床见习、临床见习后3个阶段,分别侧重于基础核心课程、专业课程和职业导向课程.基础核心课程是基于"器官-系统"的模块化整合课程;临床见习的前后衔接功能及纵向整合见习得到重视与发展;临床见习后课程侧重于临床能力和学术经验的进一步拓展.美国MD课程体系有弹性,为学生多样化、个性化的学习和发展提供了条件.我国的临床医学课程体系应借鉴国际先进经验,不断推进课程体系的改革和重塑.
On December 29, 2019, the health authorities in Hubei Province and Wuhan City received a report of a cluster of pneumonia cases of unknown etiology from a local hospital, and all four patients were employees of the Wuhan Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market (HN market for short) (1). By January 8, 2020, Chinese authorities had identified a new virus 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) linked with the outbreak of disease, which has been named novel coronavirusinfected pneumonia (NCIP) (2). On 15 January, the National Health Commission (NHC) issued guidelines for the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and control of NCIP. These guidelines directed case monitoring, reporting, diagnosis, treatment, management, close contact management, and laboratory testing. On January 20, the State Council agreed to include NCIP into the Management of the Infectious Diseases Law and the Health and Quarantine Law. On January 25, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China set up a leading group to deal with this epidemic.

Objective To investigate the value of sodium hyaluronate in endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy(En-DCR)in the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis. Methods A total of 58 patients with chronic dacryocystitis were treated with En-DCR in our hospital from January 2017 to July 2017.During the operation,1-2 ml sodium hyaluronate gel was injected into the lacrimal sac via upper puncta to brace the lacrimal sacs after full exposure in 33 cases(sodium hyaluronate group), while 25 cases were given traditional method of Bowman probe to support the lacrimal sac(Bowman probe group).The partial operation time(from the first exposure of lacrimal sacs to the ending of application of gelatin sponge), functional score, anatomical score and success rate after 2 months were compared. Results The partial operation time of sodium hyaluronate group were shorter than the Bowman probe group [(21.3 ±4.5)min vs.(26.8 ±5.1)min,t=-4.334,P=0.000],while the functional score,anatomical score and success rate after 2 months had no statistical differences(P>0.05)between the two groups. Conclusion The procedure of sodium hyaluronate gel injection into the lacrimal sac via upper puncta in the En-DCR in the treatment of chronic dacryocystitis can simplify the operation and shorten the operation time,while the long-term postoperative effect remains to be further researched.
Objective To describe current situation of the development of public health emergency response framework at provincial,municipal and county level in China and to provide evidences for promoting the development of the framework.Methods A questionnaire-based cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2013 to collect the information on the development of public health emergency response framework (policy,preparedness planning,legislation,organizational structure,mechanism and decision making system) in health related facilities at provincial,municipal,and county levels in China.Results The average scoring percentage in the evaluation on overall development of health emergency response framework was 83.1%,72.0 %,and 65.8 % for health related facilities at provincial,municipal,and county level;the average scoring percentages for evaluating the overall development in eastern,central,and western region of China were as following:84.8 %,84.8 %,and 80.1% for the health related facilities at provincial level;77.1%,73.0 %,and 66.9 % for the facilities at municipal level;and 68.6 %,65.4 %,and 60.5 % for the facilities at county level.Conclusion The development of health emergency response framework at the provincial,municipal and county level in China has been improved in recent years but the development differs obviously by administration level and geographical region.Special concern should be paid to the development in grass roots health related facilities and the facilities in western China.
Background: Quantifying syphilis prevalence is important for planning interventions and advocating for resources on syphilis. However, data on large sample studies regarding the prevalence of syphilis among reproductive-age women in rural China were not available for analysis. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence, epidemiological characteristics, and related factors of syphilis infection among reproductive-age women in rural China. Methods: Data were obtained from a nationwide, population-based, cross-sectional study under the National Free Preconception Health Examination Project which covered all the 31 provinces in Mainland China. Women intending to get pregnant within the next 6 months were enrolled between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2012. Sociodemographic, gynecological and obstetric characteristics, and other relevant information were obtained through face-to-face interviews. Treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay test was used to detect positive samples of syphilis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to assess the associations between syphilis seropositivity and related factors. Results: The overall seroprevalence of syphilis (SPS) among the 2,044,126 women who received syphilis screening test during 2010–2012 was 0.37% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.36–0.37%). The SPS appeared 0.24% (95% CI: 0.23–0.26%) and 0.66% (95% CI: 0.59–0.72%) in women at 21–24 and 40–44 years of age, respectively, showing an increase of SPS, parallel with age, and the difference was significant. SPS was significantly higher in ethnic minorities than that in Han nationality (0.58% vs. 0.35%, respectively, odds ratio [OR] = 1.41, 95% CI: 1.30–1.53) and higher in workers than that in farmers (0.45% vs. 0.36%, respectively, OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.14–1.41). Women with primary school or below level had a higher SPS as compared to those with college or above educational level (0.61% vs. 0.32%, respectively, OR = 2.49, 95% CI: 2.14–2.89), and the increase reversely correlated with the levels of education. Women whose spouses were syphilis seropositive had significant greater risk (OR = 48.26, 95% CI: 44.38–52.48) as compared those whose spouses were seronegative. Women who reported having had a history of sexually transmitted infections were more likely to be tested positive for serological syphilis (OR = 27.17, 95% CI: 20.44–36.11) as compared to those without. Conclusions: High SPS is seen among reproductive-age women in rural China that calls for targeted interventions on syphilis prevention and control in this target population, with emphasis on those who are 35 years of age and above, less educated, being minor ethnicity, workers, and living in the western regions of China.
Global DNA hypomethylation is commonly observed in benzene‐exposed workers, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We sought to discover the relationships among reduced white blood cell (WBC) counts, micronuclear (MN) frequency, and global DNA methylation to determine whether there were associations with mutations in DNMT3A/3B. Therefore, we recruited 410 shoe factory workers and 102 controls from Wenzhou in Zhenjiang Province. A Methylated DNA Quantification Kit was used to quantify global DNA methylation, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNMT3A (rs36012910, rs1550117, and R882) and DNMT3B (rs1569686, rs2424909, and rs2424913) were identified using the restriction fragment length polymorphism method. A multilinear regression analysis demonstrated that the benzene‐exposed workers experienced significant global DNA hypomethylation compared with the controls (β = −0.51, 95% CI: −0.69 to −0.32, P < 0.001). The DNMT3A R882 mutant allele (R882H and R882C) (β = −0.25, 95% CI: −0.54 to 0.04, P = 0.094) and the DNMT3B rs2424909 GG allele (β = −0.37, 95% CI: −0.70 to −0.03, P = 0.031) were significantly associated with global DNA hypomethylation compared with the wild‐type genotype after adjusting for confounding factors. Furthermore, the MN frequency in the R882 mutant allele (R882H and R882C) (FR = 1.18, 95% CI: 0.99 to 1.40, P = 0.054) was higher than that of the wild‐type. The results imply that hypomethylation occurs due to benzene exposure and that mutations in DNMTs are significantly associated with global DNA methylation, which might have influenced the induction of MN following exposure to benzene.
