理论上,临床实践与临床对照试验的方法相互不断影响.恰当的试验设计应该能反映医生和病人的想法,反之,熟悉临床试验可以改进日常临床实践的方法.换句话说,每一种方法学的原则都源于临床实践.例如:随机化(带有建设性地怀疑是否形成真正的对照),独立性(对药品公司善意的不信任),知情同意(与患者共同分担不确定性),Ⅰ型错误(对单个试验不要错误地乐观),Ⅱ型错误(对单个试验不要错误地悲观),选择正确的判效指标(相关性比精确性重要),意向性治疗原则(重实效的分析)以及亚组分析的危险["我的前一个患者综合征"(the my-last-patient syndrome)].
ObjectiveTo explore course content and teaching-learning strategies of advanced nursing practice in graduate nursing education, so as to provide reference for nursing schools to develop relevant courses.MethodsA teamof course teachers was set up, and the course was developed. The course was implemented in grade 2015 and 2016 graduate nursing students. The students’ perception and evaluation of course contents, teaching methods, teaching quality, curriculum value and course satisfaction were collected through questionnaires and interviews.ResultsA totalof 23 students were enrolled. The mean scores of teaching quality, curriculum value and course satisfaction were 93.48±1.01, 51.04±4.88, and 17.00±2.28, respectively. Students recognized the necessity and the importance of including the advanced nursing practice in each specialty in the course content, and hoped to add in practice sections.ConclusionsIt is advisable to include the advanced nursing practice in each specialty as well as the practice section, so as to strengthen the students’ concrete understanding of the advanced nursing practice. Seminar and discussion are the teaching methods with first priority.
Objective To assess the methodological quality of clinical guidelines and consensus of lupus nephritis, to collect the recommendations of each guideline, and to provide references for clinical decision-making. Methods PubMed, CNKI, and CBM databases and related websites such as NGC, NICE, GIN, SIGN, and Medive were electronically searched from January 2012 to December 2020 to collect the clinical guidelines and expert consensus for lupus nephritis. After consistency evaluation by four evaluators, the methodological quality of the included guidelines or expert consensus was evaluated using AGREE Ⅱ. The relevant recommendations, evidence level, and recommended strength of each guideline in treating lupus nephritis were summarized. Results A total of eight guidelines and two consensus statements were included. Among them, eight guidelines or consensus statements were level B (generally recommended guidelines), and two were level C (non-recommended guidelines). Relevant recommendations mainly gave the corresponding treatment scheme according to the pathological type of lupus nephritis. Conclusion The methodological quality of lupus nephritis guideline formulation in China needs to be improved. The included guidelines and consensus can provide reference for clinical decision-makers. However, higher-quality clinical practice guidelines for the Chinese population are needed to be developed in the future.

Rapid, living evidence-based points, as a new model promoting the rapid translation of evidence, aim to integrate the current best evidence, clinical status, public/patient preferences and values, and provide concise and practical guidance rapidly to important questions concerned in clinical medicine and public health. This paper introduces the methodological framework for the development of "Rapid, Living Evidence-Based Points" from 4 aspects: initiation and planning, evidence search and review, development, update, publication and dissemination of evidence-based points, in order to provide a reference for domestic scholars in developing rapid, living evidence-based points.
Chinese guideline for diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis (2021 edition) was published in the Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics, providing abundant recommendations on osteoarthritis (OA) issues. In this paper, the methodological and reporting qualities of the guideline were explained and assessed by using quality appraisal tools, such as appraisal of guidelines research and evaluation-China (AGREE-China), Institute of Medicine Committee (IOM), and reporting items for practice guidelines in healthcare (RIGHT). It also aimed to provide personalized treatments for specific patients, support readers in understanding the principle of OA treatment, and standardize OA treatment strategies. In addition, this study would contribute to the clinical promotion of the current guidelines and provide the necessary references for clinical practice guidelines in treating OA in the future.
ObjectivesTo assess the methodological quality of clinical practice guidelines of cervical cancer in China published from 2014 to 2018.MethodsCNKI, WanFang Data, CBM, VIP, Medlive.cn, the National Guideline Clearinghouse, PubMed, The Cochrane Library and EMbase were searched for cervical cancer clinical practice guidelines published in China from January 1st, 2014 to December 31st, 2018. Four reviewers searched and selected the literature independently according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and assessed the methodological quality of the included guidelines by using AGREE Ⅱ.ResultsA total of 9 guidelines were included. The average score for each area was: scope and purpose 75.47%, stakeholders’ involvement 35.09%, the rigor of development 43.70%, clarity of presentation 87.74%, applicability 80.76%, and editorial independence 0%.ConclusionsThe quality of cervical cancer clinical practice guidelines in China requires further improvement.
