Objective?To evaluate Mental Imagery on rehabilitation of functions in patients with stroke. Methods?Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, EMbase, PEDro (www.pedro.org.au), OpenSIGLE, National Technical Information Service (NTIS), CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, and CBM were searched for the Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Mental Imagery on rehabilitation of functions in patients with stroke from the date of establishment of the databases to October 2010. The bibliographies of the included studies were searched, too. Three independent researchers evaluated the included studies using GRADE. The extracted data were analyzed by RevMan 5.0.25 and GRAEDprofiler 3.2.2. Results?A total 16 trials were discovered. Meta-analyses showed that at the end of 4th, 6th, and 8th, compared with conventional rehabilitation, the mental practice increased the score measured by FMA (WMD=7.81, 95%CI 1.96 to 13.65; WMD=13.89, 95%CI 4.53 to 23.25; and WMD=9.45, 95%CI 3.67 to 15.23, respectively) and ARAT (WMD=5.70, 95%CI 3.17 to 8.22, P=0.30). The 4 outcomes were all of low quality in the GRADE system. Conclusion?The current evidence shows mental practice could improve the upper limb function in patients after stroke, and the side effects of mental practice are not found in meta-analyses. Compared with other rehabilitative therapies, it is simper, of lower input costs, and of low operating costs. The clinicians should recommend it. Due to the limitations of the included studies, more large-sample, high-quality RCTs are required.
Objective To explore the teaching effects of problem-based learning (PBL) in diagnostic practice teaching. Methods A total of 32 students enrolled into PBL group adopted the PBL teaching method based on certain cases in some sections while the other 210 students into the control group adopted the traditional teaching method.

A questionnaire survey was measured in PBL group after class. Results There was no significant difference in scores of theory and practice skill examination in the two groups. The questionnaire survey revealed that the PBL method could improve the learning interest, independent study, b communication, analytical skills, and team spirit. However, there were defects in systematization of imparting knowledge. Conclusion The PBL method has an obvious advantage in diagnostic practice teaching.

Fourthly, we explore a scientific research of out-patient real-name registration system to establish a modern hospital out-patient services model.
The original meaning of “allocation concealment” is that the statistician and the trial designer who generated the random sequence and allocation sequence should not recruit and allocate the participants for the purpose of avoiding selection bias. In the process of generating allocation sequence, combined blinding measures are so called “setting blinding”, for instance, by using “double simulation”. We use a example to describe how to perform an adequate allocation and conceal the sequence, and setting blinding. Another example is used to describe how to report the methods of randomization, allocation concealment and the effect of blinding, etc.
