Objective To survey the current difficulties and guidance expectations of postgraduate students of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in writing and publishing international journal papers, in order to optimize the teaching mode of international journal articles for TCM postgraduates. Methods By means of a questionnaire survey, TCM postgraduate students in China were selected as the survey objects from four aspects: basic information, current situation of thesis publication and writing, paper writing difficulties and current situation and expectation of course offering. SPSS 26.0 software was used for data analysis. Results A total of 2 874 valid questionnaires were collected. A total of 1 365 postgraduate students had plans to write international journal papers; 324 postgraduate students had published international journal papers as the first author. The degree of difficulty in writing was generally rated high by postgraduate students, and lack of writing skills and time were the main reasons for the low motivation of thesis writing. A total of 2 547 graduate students felt that guidance on writing papers for international journals was urgently needed, with literature search methods and clinical research methods and experimental design as the most needed guidance, and reviewers and supervisors as the most desired guides. Conclusion The number of TCM postgraduates who have plans to write international journal papers is small, the proportion of publications is low, and the demand for international journal paper guidance courses is high. It is suggested that standardized international journal paper guidance courses be offered to improve the system of cultivating scientific research ability.
Diabetic panvasculopathy refers to a clinical syndrome in which a wide range of blood vessels (including heart, brain, kidney, eye, peripheral and other large vessels and microvessels) in diabetic patients have atherosclerosis as the common pathological feature, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events as the main outcome, and active intervention of metabolic abnormalities is helpful to improve the prognosis. Early diagnosis, early prevention and active exploration of clear therapeutic targets are very important to prevent and delay the occurrence and development of diabetic panvasculopathy, but they are also challenges at present. The cardiorenal benefit of new hypoglycemic drugs is independent of blood glucose control, which has attracted increasing academic attention. The concept of panvasculopathy in diabetes plays an important role in improving the comprehensive management of the disease and multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment, which is helpful to promote the vigorous development of the subspecialty of panvasculopathy and the continuous improvement of the comprehensive prevention and treatment level.
