OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the establishment of work mode of automatic dispensing system in large-scale integrated pharmacy. METHODS:Introducing the establishment and optimization situation of the automatic pharmacy dispensing system in the outpatient pharmacy of our hospital,changes of related deployment indexes before and after optimization were compared,and the main measures for improving the work efficiency of automatic dispensing system were explored. RE-SULTS:Based on setting and regularly adjusting stored drug varieties,numbers of occupied tracks and unbundled drug factors,de-signing deployment operation mode that the system automatically dispensing preparations to immediate-dispensing and pre-dispens-ing windows,establishing operational specifications and management refinement,the outpatient pharmacy had established automat-ic dispensing system with prescription deployment number more than 12000 pieces/d and optimized work mode. Compared with be-fore optimization,host,auxiliary and smart cabinet varieties were increased in the case of the same number of total staff,immedi-ate-dispensing windows were increased and pre-dispensing windows were decreased. Proportion of full-automatically-dispensed pre-scriptions was increased (up from 41.18% to 48.32%) in the case of total prescription increasing in peak hours,and numbers of hourly prescription deployment were increased in both immediate-dispensing and pre-dispensing windows. Average time to wait for medicine of patients was shortened(down from 5.63 min to 5.18 min),supplemental medicine error and inner errors rate of deploy-ment (down from 0.48% to 0.44%) were decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The established automatic dispensing system mode can meet the needs of prescription deployment in large-scale integrated outpatient pharmacy,and improve the work efficiency by continually optimization.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the genome-wide methylation differences between coronary heart disease (CHD) patients and healthy volunteers,and to investigate the relationsip of DNA methylation with CHD from epigenetics. METHODS:In case-control study,subjects were divided into CHD group(50 cases)and health control group(50 cases). DNA of 2 groups were sequenced with methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing technology. The genome-wide methylation differences were analyzed and compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The number of methylation peak in CHD group was higher than health group,with statistical signfi-cance(P<0.05). The methylation peak mainly distributed in 5'UTR,Intron functional elements. The number of reads in AQP1,SHB and other gene promoters in CHD group were lower than health group,and its methylation level decreased. The number of reads in GRK5 and serveal gene promoters on chrX in CHD group were higher than helath group,and its methylation level increased,with sta-tistical significance(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The genome-wide methylation level of CHD patients are higher than those of healthy volunteers. The occurence of CHD is possibly associated with the change of methylation level of related gene promoters.
