NURSE EDUCATION TODAY 2018; 71:157-162. [PMID: 30290318 DOI: 10.1016/j.nedt.2018.09.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2017] [Revised: 06/09/2018] [Accepted: 09/25/2018] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical performance is regarded as a basic and core content of nursing quality. Professional values of nursing students may play an important role in improving clinical performance. Few studies reveal the relationship between professional values, perceived stress and clinical performance. This research has found that professional values play a moderating role in the relationship between perceived stress and clinical performance. OBJECTIVE To examine the negative association between perceived stress and clinical performance among practice nursing students, and to determine whether professional values plays a moderating role in the relationship between perceived stress and clinical performance among Chinese practice nursing students. DESIGN A cross-sectional descriptive design has been used. METHODS From May to June 2017, a total of 435 Chinese practice nursing students from 4 hospitals filled out the questionnaires. The response rate was 94.57%. Three questionnaires including the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Nursing Professional Value Scale-Revised (NPVS-R), and Clinical Performance Scale (CPS). Structural equation modeling was used to deal with the relationships among perceived stress, professional values, and clinical performance. RESULTS Perceived stress was negatively associated with clinical performance (P < 0.01). Professional values significantly affected clinical performance (P < 0.01) and moderated the relationship between perceived stress and clinical performance (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Perceived stress is negatively related to clinical performance among Chinese practice nursing students, and professional values moderates the relationship between perceived stress and clinical performance, which can form scientific evidence to develop intervention strategies to improve clinical performance.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the characteristics of high resolution diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) using readout segmentation of long variable echo trains (RESOLVE ) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: A total of 131 with newly diagnosed NPC patients from the 5th Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were included in this study from October 2013 to April 2016.DWI using RESOLVE technique was performed. The signal intensity (SI(lesion)), and mean(ADC(mean)), maximum(ADC(max)), minimum (ADC(min))ADCs of NPC were calculated. The signal intensity (SI(normal))and ADC (ADC(normal))of normal nasopharyngeal tissue were calculated. These quantitative parameters of NPC and normal nasopharyngeal tissue were compared.Statistical difference of ADC(mean), ADC(max) and ADC(min) between the clinical tumor stages were assessed. Results: On the DWI, all NPCs were clearly shown as high signal intensity relative to the surrounding normal nasopharyngeal structure(F=70.019, P=0.000). The ADC(mean)(F=20.442, P=0.000), ADC(max)(F=35.374, P=0.000), ADC(min)(F=61.534, P=0.000) in the carcinoma were significantly lower compared with that of normal nasopharyngeal structure. There was no statistically significant difference of ADC(mean), ADC(max) and ADC(min) (P>0.05)in different clinical stages of NPC. Conclusion: NPC can be clearly detected by RESOLVE-DWI, but the ADC(mean), ADC(max) and ADC(min) can not be used for differentiating the clinical stage of NPC.

Abstract
Objective: To standardize the reporting system on hepatitis B in order to improve the quality of monitoring program in Henan province. Methods: A total of 6 sites of Hepatitis B pilot surveillance were selected in Xinzheng of Zhengzhou city, Linzhou of Anyang city, Shanyang district of Jiaozuo city, Shaoling district of Luohe city, Yongcheng of Shangqiu city, Pingqiao district of Xinyang city in Henan province. Subjects under study were those reported hepatitis B cases, from 2012 to 2016. Cases diagnosed in 2011 were chosen as controls. Data on classification of hepatitis B, time that HBsAg became positive and ALT value of the cases were analyzed annually. 5 ml venous blood was collected and anti-HBc IgM confirmed test was made for those suspected acute cases on hepatitis B. Based on the 2016 data from the monitoring system, the incidence of acute hepatitis B in Henan province was estimated. Results: The number of reported hepatitis B cases had declined in 6 sites of Hepatitis B pilot surveillance substantially. A total of 17 436 hepatitis B reported in 2011 but only 2 632 cases were reported in 2016, with a reduction of 84.90%(14 804/17 436) in these six monitoring sites. The number of unclassified hepatitis B cases also dropped sharply. In 2011, 36.87% of the cases were unclassified, but the figure reduced to 0.08% in 2016, from the six sites. The rate on ALT detection also gradually improved. The rate of misdiagnosis on HBV carrier from hepatitis B almost disappeared. From 2013 to 2016, 777 blood samples were collected from six pilot sites. 29.34% (228/777) of the blood samples were tested positive for anti-HBc IgM after confirmed by the hepatitis laboratory of the China Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Conclusions: Since the development of the pilot surveillance program, the quality of reporting system on hepatitis B had been improved, as well as the accuracy of diagnosis. Rate on the accuracy of reporting on hepatitis B and the methods of testing should be improved at the monitoring sites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the effects of ADH1B and ALDH2 gene polymorphism and type of alcoholic beverage on ethanol metabolism, to provide data support for cases involving the interpretation of ethanol metabolism or back calculation of blood ethanol concentration in forensic practice. METHODS A total of 81 volunteers were selected. The genotypes of ADH1B, ADH1C and ALDH2 were obtained by a multiplex SNaPshot genotyping method. Each subject was administered with 1.0 g/kg of alcohol. About 1 mL venous blood was collected before and after the alcohol consumption at 30 min, 45 min, 1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h, 6 h, 7 h and 8 h, respectively. The concentrations of ethanol and acetaldehyde in blood were determined by headspace gas chromatography. The peak times of blood ethanol concentration (Tmax), the peak mass concentrations of ethanol (Cmax), the area under curve (AUC) of ethanol (AUCethanol), AUCacetaldehyde and ethanol elimination rates (β) were calculated. In order to eliminate the influence of ADH1C, the ADH1C*1/*1 carriers were grouped based on the genotype of ADH1B and ALDH2. The data of each group were evaluated by one-way analysis of variance and pairwise comparison tests were performed by least significant difference method. The gene interactions were evaluated by two-way analysis of variance. Each parameter of three kinds of alcoholic beverage (white wine, red wine and beer) among groups was analysed by variance analysis with randomized block design. RESULTS There were no differences in the value of Tmax and Cmax between the groups with different ADH1B and ALDH2 genotype. The differences in the values of AUCethanol, β and AUCacetaldehyde among some groups carrying different ADH1B and ALDH2 genotype had statistical significance, while no significant difference was observed in these parameters when one individual taking same dose of different alcoholic beverage type. CONCLUSIONS The ethanol metabolism is associated with the related gene polymorphism, which is barely affected by alcoholic beverage type.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the impact of weight management and related medication intervention based on body weight changes on cardiac function among patients with chronic congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods: Using prospective, randomized, controlled study methods, consecutive CHF patients, who hospitalized in our department from June 2014 to June 2016 (n=350), were randomly divided into intervention group (n=175) and control group (n=175). Patients in the intervention group received weight management guidance and the post discharge diuretic drugs regimen was adjusted based on body weight changes. The control group received routine medical care post discharge. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), B type natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP), 6 minutes walk distance and NYHA classification at one day before discharge and after 6 months were compared between the two groups respectively. Results: Follow-up visit data were not available from 6 patients in the control and intervention group respectively. NYHA classification, LVEF, NT-proBNP and 6 minutes walk distance were similar between the two groups at one day before discharge (all P>0.05). After 6 months, the LVEF and 6 minutes walk distance were significantly higher while NT-proBNP level was significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the control group (all P<0.01). Meanwhile, the LVEF and 6 minutes walk distance were significantly increased, while NT-proBNP was significantly reduced at 6 months post discharge compared to one day before discharge in the intervention group (all P<0.01). The LVEF was also significantly improved (P=0.035), but the NT-proBNP and 6 minutes walk distance were similar (P were 0.328 and 0.807 respectively) at 6 months after discharge compared to one day before discharge in the control group. The NYHA classification was significantly lower in intervention group and in control group at 6 months after discharge compared to one day before discharge (Z=5.154, P<0.01 and Z=10.497, P<0.01), and the NYHA classification improved more in the intervention group than in control group at 6 months after discharge (Z=9.235, P<0.01). The re-hospitalization rate of CHF patients in intervention group was 11.83% (20/169), which was significantly lower than the control group (33.14% (56/169), χ(2)=21.99, P<0.01). At 6 months follow up, body weight remained unchanged in the intervention group, while body weight tended to be higher in the control group compared to one day before discharge. Conclusion: The weight management and diuretic drug regimen adjudgment intervention based on body weight changes can improve cardiac function and reduced re-hospitalization rate in CHF patients.

Abstract
Background Genetic variations in MicroRNA (miRNA) binding sites may alter structural accessibility of miRNA binding sites to modulate risk of cancer. This large-scale integrative multistage study was aimed to evaluate the interplay of genetic variations in miRNA binding sites of iron regulatory pathway, dietary iron intake and lung cancer (LC) risk. Patients and methods The interplay of genetic variant, dietary iron intake and LC risk was assessed in large-scale case-control study. Functional characterization of the validated SNP and analysis of target miRNAs were performed. Results We found that the miRNA binding site SNP rs1062980 in 3' UTR of Iron-Responsive Element Binding protein 2 gene (IREB2) was associated with a 14% reduced LC risk (P value = 4.9×10 - 9). Comparing to AA genotype, GG genotype was associated with a 27% reduced LC risk. This association was evident in males and ever-smokers but not in females and never-smokers. Higher level of dietary iron intake was significantly associated with 39% reduced LC risk (P value = 2.0×10 - 8). This association was only present in individuals with AG + AA genotypes with a 46% reduced risk (P value = 1.0×10 - 10), but not in GG genotype. The eQTL-analysis showed that rs1062980 significantly alters IREB2 expression level. Rs1062980 is predicted to alter a miR-29 binding site on IREB2 and indeed the expression of miR-29 is inversely correlated with IREB2 expression. Further, we found that higher circulating miR-29a level was significantly associated with 78% increased LC risk. Conclusion The miRNA binding site SNP rs1062980 in iron regulatory pathway, which may alter the expression of IREB2 potentially through modulating the binding of miR-29a, together with dietary iron intake may modify risk of LC both individually and jointly. These discoveries reveal novel pathway for understanding lung cancer tumorigenesis and risk stratification.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The international, randomized, placebo-controlled phase III ExteNET trial showed that 1 year of neratinib after trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy significantly improved 2-year invasive disease-free survival (iDFS) in early-stage HER2+ breast cancer (HR 0.67; 95% CI 0.50–0.91; p=0.009) [Chan et al. Lancet Oncol 2016]. The significant iDFS benefit with neratinib was maintained after a median of 5 years' follow-up (HR 0.73; 95% CI 0.57-0.92; p=0.008) [Martin et al. ESMO 2017]. We present exploratory analyses from the ExteNET trial examining the effects of the interval between completion of trastuzumab and randomization to commence neratinib on iDFS.
Methods: Women with early-stage HER2+ breast cancer were randomly assigned to oral neratinib 240 mg/day or placebo for 1 year after standard primary therapy and trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy. Under the original study protocol, (neo)adjuvant trastuzumab was to be completed ≤24 months before randomization; this was revised to ≤12 months before randomization after the NCCTG-N9831/NSABP B-31 4-year analysis showed that the risk of relapse is greatest during the first 12 months after completing trastuzumab. Disease recurrences were collected prospectively during 1 and 2 years post-randomization, and from medical records during 3–5 years post-randomization. Patients randomized ≤12 months after completion of adjuvant trastuzumab were further separated to look at those who initiated neratinib ≤6 months of completing adjuvant trastuzumab. Primary endpoint: iDFS. HR (95% CI) estimated using Cox proportional-hazards models. Data cut-off: March 1, 2017. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00878709.
Results:The intention-to-treat population comprised 2840 patients (neratinib, n=1420; placebo, n=1420). Median time from last trastuzumab dose to randomization was 4.4 and 4.6 months in the neratinib and placebo groups, respectively. 81% of patients were randomized ≤12 months of completing trastuzumab. The effects of the interval between the last dose of trastuzumab and randomization/initiation of neratinib on iDFS after a median follow-up of 5.2 years are shown in the table.

Conclusions: In ExteNET, patients who initiated neratinib within 12 months of completing trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy appeared to derive greater benefit from treatment than those who started neratinib later. Further, exploratory analyses suggest that the magnitude of benefit with neratinib is greater if initiated sooner (i.e. within 6 months of completing trastuzumab). Given the benefits of neratinib overall in those initiating treatment ≤12 months from the end of adjuvant trastuzumab, extended adjuvant treatment with neratinib should be initiated early following completion of trastuzumab.

Abstract
Background Cancer initiation and development are driven by key mutations in driver genes. Applying high-throughput sequencing technologies and bioinformatic analyses, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project has identified panels of somatic mutations that contributed to the etiology of various cancers. However, there are few studies investigating the germline genetic variations in these significantly mutated genes (SMGs) and lung cancer susceptibility. Patients and methods We comprehensively evaluated 1655 tagged single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in 127 SMGs identified by TCGA, and test their association with lung cancer risk in large-scale case-control study. Functional effect of the validated SNPs, gene mutation frequency and pathways were analyzed. Results We found 11 SNPs in 8 genes showed consistent association (P < 0.1) and 8 SNPs significantly associated with lung cancer risk (P < 0.05) in both discovery and validation phases. The most significant association was rs10412613 in PPP2R1A, with the minor G allele associated with a decreased risk of lung cancer [odds ratio = 0.91, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.87-0.96, P = 2.3 × 10-4]. Cumulative analysis of risk score built as a weight sum of the 11 SNPs showed consistently elevated risk with increasing risk score (P for trend = 9.5 × 10-9). In stratified analyses, the association of PPP2R1A:rs10412613 and lung cancer risk appeared stronger among population of younger age at diagnosis and never smokers. The expression quantitative trait loci analysis indicated that rs10412613, rs10804682, rs635469 and rs6742399 genotypes significantly correlated with the expression of PPP2R1A, ATR, SETBP1 and ERBB4, respectively. From TCGA data, expression of the identified genes was significantly different in lung tumors compared with normal tissues, and the genes' highest mutation frequency was found in lung cancers. Integrative pathway analysis indicated the identified genes were mainly involved in AKT/NF-κB regulatory pathway suggesting the underlying biological processes. Conclusion This study revealed novel genetic variants in SMGs associated with lung cancer risk, which might contribute to elucidating the biological network involved in lung cancer development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop a SNP-STR haplotype by consisting of the SNP and STR genetic markers, both of which locate in a haplotype block. To investigate its distribution in Han population from Chengdu, and explore its application in some special cases of paternity testing. METHODS D18S51, one of the high mutation rate STR markers in combined DNA index system (CODIS), and three SNP loci rs8089331, rs8094489 and rs7236090 in its flanking region, were chosen to establish SNP-STR. Its haplotype was obtained by nested allele-specific polymerase chain reaction, and the relevant distribution of 75 unrelated individuals were investigated in Han population from Chengdu. The SNP-STR haplotype was tentatively applied in duo paternity testing cases with D18S51 incompatibility. RESULTS The SNP-STR typing method was established and a total of 43 haplotypes were obtained successfully in Han population from Chengdu. Its polymorphism was 0.948 6, and duo paternity testing cases were resolved by this method. CONCLUSIONS SNP-STR shows high diversity and can be applied in the identifications of some special paternity testing cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the flipped classroom approach has been broadly applied to nursing courses in China. However, a systematic and quantitative assessment of the outcomes of this approach has not been conducted. OBJECTIVE The purpose of the meta-analysis is to evaluate the effectiveness of the flipped classroom pedagogy in Chinese baccalaureate nursing education. DESIGN Meta-analysis of randomized controlled studies. DATA SOURCE All randomized controlled trials relevant to the use of flipped classrooms in Chinese nursing education were retrieved from the following databases from their date of inception through September 23, 2017: PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Wanfang Database, and the Chinese Scientific Journals Database. Search terms including "flipp*", "inverted", "classroom", and "nurs*" were used to identify potential studies. We also manually searched the reference lists of the retrieved articles to identify potentially relevant studies. REVIEW METHODS Two reviewers independently assessed the eligibility of each study and extracted the data. The Cochrane risk-of-bias tool was used to evaluate the quality of the studies. RevMan (Version 5.3) was used to analyze the data. Theoretical knowledge scores and skill scores (continuous data) were synthesized using the standardized mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). The statistical heterogeneity of the included studies was analyzed by calculating the I2 statistic and applying a chi-square test. Publication bias was assessed by funnel plots. The quality of the combined results was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. RESULTS Eleven randomized controlled trials published between 2015 and 2017 were selected. All the included studies had a moderate possibility of bias due to low methodological quality. The meta-analysis indicated that the theoretical knowledge scores and skill scores were significantly higher in the flipped classroom group than in the traditional lectures group (SMD=1.06, 95% CI: 0.70-1.41, P <0.001, and SMD=1.40, 95% CI: 0.46-2.34, P <0.001). There was no significant publication bias indicated in the primary analysis. Sensitivity analysis showed that the results of our meta-analysis were reliable. The evidence grades of the results regarding the theoretical knowledge and skill scores were low and very low, respectively. CONCLUSION Flipped classroom pedagogy is more effective than traditional lectures at improving students' theoretical knowledge and skill scores. Given the limitations of the included studies, more robust randomized controlled trials are warranted in a variety of educational settings to confirm our findings.

Safety, quality and effect of complete mesocolic excision vs non-complete mesocolic excision in patients with colon cancer: a systemic review and meta-analysis. Colorectal Dis 2017; 19:962-972. [PMID: 28949060 DOI: 10.1111/codi.13900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 81] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2017] [Accepted: 08/14/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
AIM The application of complete mesocolic excision (CME) in colon cancer is controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to compare the safety, quality and effect of CME with non-complete mesocolic excision (NCME) in patients with colon cancer. METHOD We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, the Cochrane Library and Scopus to identify studies comparing CME with NCME in colon cancer. We focused on three study outcome areas: safety (operation time, blood loss, complications, mortality); quality (large bowel length, distance from the tumour to the high vascular tie, area of mesentery, total lymph nodes); and effect (long-term survival). RESULTS A total of 8586 patients from 12 studies were included in the meta-analysis. CME was associated with greater intra-operative blood loss [weighted mean difference (WMD) 79.87, 95% CI: 65.88-93.86], more postoperative surgical complications (relative risk 1.23, 95% CI: 1.08-1.40), longer large bowel resection (WMD 47.06, 95% CI: 10.49-83.62), greater distance from the tumour to the high vascular tie (WMD 17.51, 95% CI: 15.16-19.87), larger area of mesentery (WMD 36.09, 95% CI: 18.06-54.13) and more lymph nodes (WMD 6.13, 95% CI: 1.97-10.28) than NCME. CME also had positive effects on 5-year survival [hazard ratio (HR) 0.33, 95% CI: 0.13-0.81], 3-year survival (HR 0.58, 95% CI: 0.39-0.86) and 3-year survival for Stage III disease (HR 0.69, 95% CI: 0.60-0.80) compared with NCME. CONCLUSION Limited evidence suggests that CME is a more effective strategy for improving specimen quality and survival but with a higher complication rate.

Abstract
Objective: To fabricate Ti alloy frameworks for a maxillary complete denture with three-dimensional printing (3DP) technique, such as selective laser melting (SLM) and electron beam melting (EBM), and to evaluate the microstructure of these frameworks and their adaptation to the die stone models. Methods: Thirty pairs of edentulous casts were divided into 3 groups randomly and equally. In each group, one of the three techniques (SLM, EBM, conventional technique) was used to fabricate Ti alloy frameworks. The base-cast sets were transversally sectioned into 3 sections at the distal of canines, mesial of first molars, and the posterior palatal zone. The gap between the metal base and cast was measured in the 3 sections. Stereoscopic microscope was used to measure the gap. Three pieces of specimens of 5 mm diameter were fabricated with Ti alloy by SLM, EBM and the traditional casting technology (as mentioned above). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to evaluate the differences of microstructure among these specimens. Results: The gaps between the metal base and cast were (99.4±17.0), (98.2±26.1), and (99.6± 16.1) μm in conventional method; (99.4 ± 22.8), (83.1 ± 19.3), and (103.3 ± 13.8) μm in SLM technique; (248.3±70.3), (279.1±71.9), and (189.1±31.6) μm in EBM technique. There was no statistical difference in the value of gaps between SLM Ti alloy and conventional method Ti alloy group (P>0.05). There was statistical difference among EBM Ti alloy, conventional method Ti alloy and SLM Ti alloy group (P<0.05). The SLM Ti alloy showed more uniform and compact microstructure than the cast Ti alloy and EBM Ti alloy did. Conclusions: SLM technique showed initial feasibility to manufacture the dental base of complete denture. The mechanical properties and microstructure of the denture frameworks prepared by SLM indicate that these dentures are appropriate for clinical use. EBM technique is inadequate to make a complete denture now.

Abstract
This meta-analysis compared the efficacy and safety of the contact force (CF)-sensing catheter and second-generation cryoballoon (CB) ablation for treating atrial fibrillation (AF). Six controlled clinical trials comparing ablation for AF using a CF-sensing catheter or second-generation CB were identified from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Wanfang Data, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The procedure duration was significantly lower in the CB group compared with that in the CF group [mean difference (MD)=29.4; 95%CI=17.84–40.96; P=0.01], whereas there was no difference between the groups for fluoroscopy duration (MD=0.59; 95%CI=–4.48–5.66; P=0.82). Moreover, there was no difference in the incidence of non-lethal complications (embolic event, tamponade, femoral/subclavian hematoma, arteriovenous fistula, pulmonary vein stenosis, phrenic nerve palsy, and esophageal injury) between the CB and the CF groups (8.38 vs 5.35%; RR=0.66; 95%CI=0.37–1.17; P=0.15). Transient phrenic nerve palsy occurred in 17 of 326 patients (5.2%) of the CB group vs none in the CF group (RR=0.12; 95%CI=0.03–0.43; P=0.001). A comparable proportion of patients in CF and CB groups suffered from AF recurrence during the 12-month follow-up after a single ablation procedure [risk ratio (RR)=1.03; 95%CI=0.78–1.35; P=0.84]. AF ablation using CF-sensing catheters and second-generation CB showed comparable fluoroscopy duration and efficacy (during a 12-month follow-up), with shorter procedure duration and different complications in the CB group.

Abstract
TAR DNA-binding domain protein 43 (TDP-43) is a highly conserved and widely expressed nuclear protein. Nowadays, the expression of TDP-43 can be found in most neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, which makes it become a neurodegenerative disease associated marker protein. From the current research status at homeland and abroad, and around the relationship between the expression of TDP-43 and brain injury, this article emphatically probes into the specific expression and function of TDP-43 in acute and chronic brain injury based on the knowledge of its biological characteristics, which aims to explore the feasibility for determining the cause of death and the injury and disability situations by TDP-43 in forensic pathology.

Abstract
Among the medical bamboo slips unearthed from Han tomb in Laoguanshan of Chengdu, the Zhu bing (All Diseases) is a monograph to discuss the characteristics of signs and symptoms. Based on the differences of writing styles, diseases involved, expounding methods and writing rules, the book is divided, by the research team, into 2 parts: All Diseases(1) and All Diseases(2). All Diseases(1) includes over 130 slips, 2 000 characters with totally more than 100 disease names, containing multiple clinical disciplines. The elaborated classification, varied naming methods, grasping the symptom characteristics guided by the four diagnostic approaches, paying attention to the comparison of similar diseases, and dealing with the prognosis and healthcare in this part reflect the holism of correspondence between human body and natural environment, and syndrome differentiation thought of combining disease with symptoms and signs, revealing its academic significance.
