Histoembryology are closely related to disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment, which is a connecting subject between basic medicine and clinical medicine, and plays very important role in medical teaching. This paper mainly focuses on the teaching mode of Histoembryology, analyzes the teaching characteristics of traditional LBL teaching mode and current mainstream PBL teaching mode, and states the application steps of LBL combined with PBL mode in Histoembryology teaching, so that we can understand the focus of PBL teaching mode more clearly. Finally, the application effect of PBL mode in the teaching of Histoembryology is discussed through the application effect. The conclusion shows that the double track teaching mode of LBL combined with PBL is very effective in the teaching of Histoembryology.

An individual’s genetic makeup has the power to inform medical practice and shape disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment to improve lifelong outcomes. Genetics has integrated into some aspects of general medicine; however, there has been less success in incorporating genetics into psychiatry. This chapter discusses the genetics of bipolar disorder. As revealed from family, twin, and adoption studies, bipolar disorder is highly heritable, with estimates suggesting the disorder coincides with the highest heritability compared with other psychiatric disorders. While association studies have identified genes of interest that may contribute to risk for the disorder, these studies have been difficult to replicate, and genes identified have shown small effect sizes on their own. More recent approaches to studying polygenic risk and epigenetics modifications of the genome are starting to be applied to bipolar disorder. Early findings utilizing these approaches are discussed. Additionally, this chapter discusses emerging work suggesting genetic associations that may cross diagnostic boundaries in psychiatry and genetic endophenotypes that may one day be incorporated into clinical practice for improving prediction, diagnosis, and treatment of bipolar disorder. While more work is needed to understand the genetics of bipolar disorder and ways to integrate genetics into clinical practice, there is hope on the horizon, and familial information can already guide clinical practice.

Health is one of the highest values of humanity. Preservation of the health of the nation, every citizen is among the priority areas of any state. The largest contribution to health care is made by medical professionals. Students of medical universities during their studies are mainly guided by the diagnosis and treatment of the pathological process. The issues of disease prevention and health preservation remain in much smaller coverage. Involvement of professionals in the field of valeology will lead to a natural exit from the first posishions of supporters of alternative and marginal paramedical retrograde currents

For more than a century, attempts to use modern technologies for communication between doctors and patients who are far from medical facilities have continued. At first, this was actualized mainly for the diagnosis and treatment of emergency conditions and was very limited. Recent exponential progress of communication technologies and Internet in most remote places allow both providing quality consultation care and developing disease prevention programs, in particular screening. But, unfortunately, in traditional medical organization, these opportunities cannot be fully actualized. The search for optimal communication forms between a doctor and a patient is ongoing. There remain many unsolved problems of the interaction between state, insurance and private medicine. Nevertheless, the accumulated experience suggests that this very promising branch of medicine will be developed.

Clinicians have always personalised patient management. There is a growing momentum to improve this further through the integration of genomic information into clinical care. This will incorporate powerful new tools, through which clinicians can further tailor healthcare, improving disease prevention, prediction, diagnosis and treatment. This article aims to suggest ways in which this revolution in healthcare will affect GPs.
