OSTMED.DR®, an Osteopathic Medicine Digital Library

The OSTMED.DR® database provides access to both citation and full-text osteopathic literature, including the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association. Currently, it is a free database searchable using basic and advanced search features.     

Investigating married adults’ communal coping with genetic health risk and perceived discrimination

Increased genetic testing in personalized medicine presents unique challenges for couples, including managing disease risk and potential discrimination as a couple. This study investigated couples’ conflicts and support gaps as they coped with perceived genetic discrimination. We also explored the degree to which communal coping was beneficial in reducing support gaps and ultimately stress. Dyadic analysis of married adults (N?=?266, 133 couples), in which one person had the genetic risk for serious illness, showed that perceived discrimination predicted more frequent conflicts about alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency-related treatment, privacy boundaries, and finances, which, in turn, predicted wider gaps in emotion and esteem support, and greater stress for both spouses. Communal coping predicted lower support gaps for both partners and marginally lower stress.     

Preparing for Practice: Strengthening Third-Year Medical Students’ Awareness of Point-of-Care Resources

This column describes the development and implementation of a responsive library course designed to train third-year medical students as they begin their clerkships. The course design consisted of a brief face-to-face introduction during third-year orientation and an online course developed in Canvas, an online learning management system. The objective of the course was to not only introduce students to the resources but also to teach them how to effectively use those resources at the point-of-care. Students evaluated the course to assess the overall effectiveness of the instruction. Course development and content, feedback provided by students, as well as suggestions for improvement are discussed.

医学检验专业教学与检验技士资格考试对接的探索与实践

临床医学检验技术资格考试系测评是否为合格专业人才的有效措施,这为检验专业教学指明了以资格考试为切入点,以行业需求为标准的导向。在专业教学中围绕资格考试大纲体现的专科教育教学“必需、够用”的原则,突出实用性和针对性,我院从人才培养、教师队伍建设、实践平台搭建等三个方面对医学检验专业的教学进行了探索与实践。     

Walking and biologic ageing: Evidence based on NHANES telomere data

ABSTRACT

The length of telomeres is an objective measure of biologic ageing. This study evaluated the extent minutes of walking per week are associated with leukocyte telomere length (LTL) in a random sample of 5,823 U.S. adults. The investigation was cross-sectional and data were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). LTL was measured by the quantitative polymerase chain reaction method. Walking minutes was calculated from walking frequency and duration measures. Results showed that for each year of chronological age, telomeres were 15.6 base pairs shorter (P < 0.0001). With walking minutes and LTL treated as continuous variables, the relationship was quadratic, not linear (F = 11.2, P = 0.0023). With walking time divided into three categories, adults who performed ≥ 150 minutes of walking per week had longer telomeres than those who did no regular walking, and those who did some, but less than the recommendation (F = 5.0, P = 0.0137). Regular walkers were estimated to have a biologic ageing advantage associated with 6.5–7.6 years less biologic ageing compared to non-walkers, after adjusting for covariates. Additional investigations designed to study causality and the mechanisms associated with the walking and LTL relationship are needed.

论心理保健

从理论与实践的结合上,探讨人类健康的重要因素之一的心理保健、心理卫生(精神卫生)等方面的问题.随着医学模式的转变,由传统的生物医学模式向生物——心理——社会医学模式转变.心理健康、心理保健、心理卫生已成为影响人类健康非常重要的因素.现代医学的发展,促使人们对心理、社会因素与健康的关系,越来越关注,当今许多疾病的发病率及死亡率,都与心理、社会因素有着密切关系.如心血管系统疾病——高血压、冠心病以及溃疡、神经衰弱等.这些慢性非传染性疾病,已成为威胁人类健康的主要原因之一.因此重视心理保健,保持心理平衡,开展心理咨询,有效地进行心理治疗,对于保护人类健康是至关重要的.
