[TIPS & BACKGROUND]
1. 基站(Base station):是指采用蜂窩方式組網(wǎng)的GSM移動(dòng)通信系統(tǒng)、CDMA移動(dòng)通信系統(tǒng)、數(shù)字集群通信系統(tǒng)、PHS無(wú)線接入系統(tǒng)以及采用其他技術(shù)體制的無(wú)線電通信系統(tǒng)的基站及其室外直放站?;舅褂玫念l率必須已經(jīng)國(guó)家或省級(jí)無(wú)線電管理機(jī)構(gòu)批準(zhǔn);使用的發(fā)射設(shè)備必須具有國(guó)家無(wú)線電管理機(jī)構(gòu)核發(fā)的《無(wú)線電發(fā)射設(shè)備型號(hào)核準(zhǔn)證》。
2. 沃達(dá)豐(Vodafone):是跨國(guó)性的移動(dòng)電話營(yíng)辦商??偛吭O(shè)在英國(guó)波克夏郡的紐布利(Newbury)及德國(guó)的杜塞爾多夫?,F(xiàn)時(shí)為世界上的流動(dòng)通訊網(wǎng)絡(luò)公司之一,在全球27個(gè)國(guó)家均有投資。在另外14個(gè)國(guó)家則與當(dāng)?shù)氐囊苿?dòng)電話營(yíng)辦商合作,聯(lián)營(yíng)移動(dòng)電話網(wǎng)絡(luò)。截至2004年12月31日,沃達(dá)豐在全球擁有大約一億五千一百八十萬(wàn)名用戶(hù)。沃達(dá)豐使用沃達(dá)豐集團(tuán)作為名稱(chēng),分別于倫敦證券交易所(代號(hào)VOD.L)及紐約證券交易所(代號(hào)VOD)上市。沃達(dá)豐(Vodafone)的名稱(chēng)結(jié)合了Voice(語(yǔ)音)-Data(數(shù)據(jù))-Fone(電話)三個(gè)意思。
3. 自我效能感(self-efficacy):即一個(gè)人對(duì)自己成功地完成某種任務(wù)、達(dá)到既定水平的確信程度。
4. 糖化血紅蛋白(HbA1c):是血紅蛋白A組分的某些特殊分子部位和葡萄糖經(jīng)過(guò)緩慢而不可逆的非酶促反應(yīng)結(jié)合而形成的,當(dāng)血液中葡萄糖濃度較高時(shí),人體所形成的糖化血紅蛋白含量也會(huì)相對(duì)較高。人體內(nèi)紅細(xì)胞的壽命一般為120天,在紅細(xì)胞死亡前,血液中糖化血紅蛋白含量也會(huì)保持相對(duì)不變。因此糖化血紅蛋白水平反映的是在檢測(cè)前120天內(nèi)的平均血糖水平,而與抽血時(shí)間,病人是否空腹,是否使用胰島素等因素?zé)o關(guān),是判定糖尿病長(zhǎng)期控制的良好指標(biāo)。它反映4~8周的體內(nèi)血糖的平均水平,并可能是造成糖尿病并發(fā)癥的一個(gè)重要原因。
5. 依從性(compliance):是指患者執(zhí)行醫(yī)療措施的程度,亦即患者執(zhí)行醫(yī)囑的程度。患者能完全按醫(yī)囑要求執(zhí)行者稱(chēng)為依從性好,否則稱(chēng)為不依從性。

每天一條短信……
通過(guò)醫(yī)學(xué)應(yīng)用顯示,手機(jī)可能有益于您的健康。
手機(jī)對(duì)使用者健康會(huì)產(chǎn)生什么樣的影響呢?許多人擔(dān)心手機(jī)手持裝置及通信基站的輻射會(huì)對(duì)身體有害,不過(guò)始終缺乏可靠依據(jù),而關(guān)于手機(jī)對(duì)健康有益的證據(jù)卻越來(lái)越多。的確,在倫敦皇家學(xué)院里法特•亞頓及其同事撰寫(xiě)的一篇系統(tǒng)性綜述中,就匯總了150條手機(jī)短信用于提供醫(yī)療保健服務(wù)的事例。短信的這些用途可以分為三類(lèi),即提高工作效率、促進(jìn)公共衛(wèi)生宣傳以及通過(guò)將短信與治療方案進(jìn)行整合直接惠及病人。本周公諸于眾的此項(xiàng)研究是由世界的移動(dòng)電話運(yùn)營(yíng)商沃達(dá)豐資助的。
利用編發(fā)短信來(lái)提高工作效率并不是多么高深的科學(xué),但是能節(jié)省大筆費(fèi)用。比如,英國(guó)有幾項(xiàng)試驗(yàn)發(fā)現(xiàn),短信提醒功能將同家庭醫(yī)生的約會(huì)錯(cuò)過(guò)率降低了26%到39%,同醫(yī)院的約會(huì)錯(cuò)過(guò)率則減少了33%到50%。設(shè)若這種短信提醒系統(tǒng)能推廣到全國(guó),則相當(dāng)于每年節(jié)省2.56~3.64億英鎊。
在提醒病人去驗(yàn)血、上診所、做掃描以及預(yù)約牙醫(yī)等方面,短信也正得到應(yīng)用。在美國(guó)、挪威和瑞典,一些類(lèi)似的系統(tǒng)均已取得了令人滿(mǎn)意的效果——不過(guò)在荷蘭,由于無(wú)故缺席率本來(lái)就較低(5%),所以短信提醒除了打擾患者之外,無(wú)任何效果。
手機(jī)短信也是傳播公共衛(wèi)生信息的一個(gè)好途徑,對(duì)那些通過(guò)其他方式難以傳達(dá)到的人群,比如青少年,或者是在沒(méi)有其他通信手段的發(fā)展中國(guó)家,更是如此。比如,印度已使用短信來(lái)宣傳國(guó)際衛(wèi)生組織的結(jié)核病防控策略,肯尼亞、尼日利亞和馬里也利用短信為人們提供艾滋病和瘧疾方面的訊息,在伊拉克,短信則被用來(lái)聲援一項(xiàng)給將近5歲的兒童接種天花疫苗的行動(dòng)。
研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn),應(yīng)用短信顯著提高了患者“自我效能感”(即治療效果,問(wèn)卷檢測(cè))。更重要的是,接受強(qiáng)化治療的患者中,糖化血紅蛋白(HbA1c)(一種血糖指標(biāo),用于監(jiān)控血糖含量)濃度比對(duì)照組低14%。一般而言,糖化血紅蛋白濃度下降10%,就表明眼、腎等并發(fā)癥發(fā)生率降低,因此這一試驗(yàn)結(jié)果令人矚目,它提示短信能夠便宜有效地輔助少年患者強(qiáng)化治療,而這些患者在治療中往往依從性很差。
里法特指出,結(jié)果雖然令人深受鼓舞,但短信的很多醫(yī)療用途由于太過(guò)新穎,還沒(méi)有接受臨床試驗(yàn),即便是已被證實(shí)的用途,也尚未得到系統(tǒng)性推廣。但是,隨著短信對(duì)改善治療效果和減少醫(yī)療費(fèi)用的作用越來(lái)越突出,醫(yī)生們也許將用短信來(lái)下醫(yī)囑。
