OBJECTIVE To develope a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in coronary heart disease （CHD） patients with initial treatment， aiming to assist medical staff in rapidly identifying high-risk groups for medication deviation. METHODS A total of 462 CHD patients with initial treatment from the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology （hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”） between January and July 2024 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into a modeling group and an internal validation group. The modeling group was further categorized into a medication deviation group and a non-medication deviation group based on whether medication deviations occurred. Similarly， 57 CHD patients with initial treatment from the cardiology department of our hospital between June and September 2025 were collected as an external validation group. Univariate analysis was used to screen predictive factors， followed by multivariate Logistic regression to construct the predictive model. Internal validation methods were employed to evaluate model performance， while external validation methods were used to test the model’s generalizability. RESULTS The 462 patients were divided into a modeling group （319 cases） and an internal validation group （143 cases）. In the modeling group， the medication deviation group （192 cases， 60.19%） and the non-medication deviation group （127 cases， 39.81%） were identified. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that age， medication type， medication adherence， and self-efficacy in rational medication use were predictive factors for medication deviations in CHD patients with initial treatment （ P ＜0.05）. The predictive model equation was logit P ＝ln[ P /（1－ P ） ] ＝1.321+1.732×age+4.091×medication type －4.360×medication adherence －3.081×self-efficacy in rational medication use. The model demonstrated good discrimination， with a Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test P -value of 0.439， an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC） of 0.870， sensitivity of 0.970， and specificity of 0.607. A risk nomogram with a total score of 350 points and a cutoff value of 110 points was plotted. The internal validation group showed an AUC o f 0.787 and a prediction accuracy of 77.6%， while the external validation group exhibited an AUC of 0.802 and a prediction accuracy of 73.7%. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully developed a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in CHD patients with initial treatment. The model demonstrates excellent discrimination and predictive accuracy， effectively identifying high-risk populations for medication deviations. Age （＞70 years）， number of drug types≥5， poor medication adherence， and poor self-efficacy in rational medication use are independent risk factors for medication deviations.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management （MTM） services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic， Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes （ECHO） model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 （pre-quality control implementation group， n＝96） and June-August 2023 （post-quality control implementation group， n＝164）. Using propensity score matching analysis， 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic， clinical， and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching （P＞0.05）. Compared with pre-quality control implementation group， the daily treatment cost （16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan， P＜0.001）， cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY） vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY， P＜0.001]， and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions （2.50% vs. 10.00%， P＝0.049） of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly； the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire （0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07， P＝0.003）， the reduction in the number of medication related problems （1.0 vs. 0.5， P＜0.001）， the medication adherence score （[ 6.32±0.48） points vs. （6.10±0.37） points， P＝0.001]， and the satisfaction score （[ 92.56±1.52） points vs. （91.95±1.56） points， P＝0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups （1.25% vs. 3.75%， P＝0.310）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care， and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services， making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs， thus being worthy of promotion.

To analyze the investigation and disposal of an H5N6 human infection with animal derived influenza epidemic in Quanzhou City in 2024, and provide reference for the control and prevention of animal derived influenza epidemics in future.According to Technical Guidelines for Control and Prevention of Human infected with Zoonotic Influenza Viruses (Trial), we investigated the diagnosis and treatment of the case, suspected exposure, infection sources and routes, by the method of field epidemiological investigation. The case, close contacts, and relevant environmental samples were collected for nucleic acid testing and gene sequencing. A nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient who rapidly progressed to severe pneumonia and died of multiple organ failure after being diagnosed with H5N6. The H5N6 virus nucleic acid test results of 5 close contacts and 37 suspected exposed individuals were all negative, and no second-generation cases occurred. Through on-site investigation and genetic sequencing analysis, it is highly likely that the source of infection is the outdoor environment of free range poultry contaminated with H5N6 virus in the vicinity of the patient's home.Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma or other immune restricted diseases should take personal protective measures, stay away from poultry and livestock breeding and trading places, and avoid close contact with poultry or other animals as much as possible. We should strengthen the training of management personnel of third-party testing institutions, enhance the work of thematic risk assessment and the application of risk assessment results,and expand the scope of monitoring human infected with zoonotic influenza viruses in breeding farms, live poultry markets, and migratory bird habitats.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical features of the sepsis in immunocompromised hosts and establish an early warning equation. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on sepsis patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Binzhou Medical University Hospital from October 2011 to October 2022. General information, infection site, etiology results and drug susceptibility, clinical symptoms, inflammatory indicators, acute physiology and chronic health status evaluation II (APACHE II), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), incidence of immune paralysis, and outcome during hospitalization were collected. Based on whether they met the diagnostic criteria for immunocompromised hosts, patients were divided into immunocompromised group and immune normal group. The clinical information of the two groups were compared. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of patients with immunocompromised sepsis and the regression equation model was initially established. Omnibus test and Hosmer-Lemeshow test were used to evaluate the model. RESULTS: A total of 169 patients with sepsis were included, including 61 in the immunocompromised group and 108 in the normal immune group. The top 3 infection sites in the immunocompromised group were bloodstream infection, pulmonary infection and abdominal infection. The top 3 infection sites in the normal immune group were pulmonary infection, bloodstream infection and abdominal infection. The infection rate of Gram-negative bacteria in the immunocompromised group was significantly lower than that in the normal group [49.2% (30/61) vs. 64.8% (70/108), P < 0.05]. The infection rate of Gram-positive bacteria [27.9% (17/61) vs. 13.9% (15/108)] and multidrug-resistant bacteria [54.1% (33/61) vs. 29.6% (32/108)] were significantly higher than those in normal immune group (both P < 0.05). In terms of clinical symptoms, the proportion of fever in the immunocompromised group was significantly lower than that in the immune normal group [49.2% (30/61) vs. 66.7% (72/108), P < 0.05]. Neutrophil count (NEU) and neutrophil percentage (NEU%) in the immunocompromised group were significantly lower than those in the normal immune group. Lymphocyte percentage (LYM%), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), APACHE II score, combined shock rate, incidence of immune paralysis, and mortality during hospitalization in the immunocompromised group were significantly higher than those in the normal immune group. Logistic regression analysis showed that NLR, CRP and PCT were risk factors for patients with immunocompromised sepsis (all P < 0.05). The above indicators were used as covariables to construct a Logistic regression equation, that was, Logit (P) = 0.025X₁+0.010X₂+0.013X₃-2.945, where X₁, X₂ and X₃ represent NLR, CRP and PCT respectively. Omnibus test and Hosmer-Lemeshow test show that the model fits well and has certain early warning value. CONCLUSIONS Patients with immunocompromised sepsis have more intense inflammatory response, with Gram-negative bacteria being the predominant pathogen, and a higher incidence of Gram-positive bacterial infections and multi-drug resistant infections. The severity of the disease, in-hospital mortality, the incidence of shock and the incidence of immune paralysis after sepsis were significantly higher. NLR, CRP and PCT were independent risk factors for sepsis in immunocompromised hosts. The regression equation constructed based on this may have early warning significance for patients with immunocompromised sepsis.

Central hiccup frequently occurs secondary to stroke and is not solely attributed to gastric disharmony with ascending counterflow qi disturbing the diaphragm.It is also associated with post-stroke orifice obstruction with spirit concealment and failure of the spirit to guide qi.In treatment,regulating qi movement and simultaneous brain-diaphragm intervention warrant attention.The foot shaoyang gallbladder meridian interconnects the head,neck,diaphragm,and thorax through its pathway,and as a shaoyang meridian,it plays a pivotal role in coordinating qi dynamics.This study investigates the theoretical and structural foundations for treating central hiccup via the gallbladder meridian,based on meridian-viscera theory and the reflex arc of hiccup.By analyzing the meridian-viscera relationships between the gallbladder meridian and the pathological loci of central hiccup,this study elucidates its etiology and pathogenesis,proposing a gallbladder meridian-oriented therapeutic approach to provide novel clinical insights.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum vitamin D level and heart failure based on cross-sectional analysis.Methods A total of 10,411 subjects included in the Na-tional Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES)database from 2013 to 2016 were select-ed as the study population.The serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D]levels of all subjects were measured.According to the quartiles of serum vitamin D levels,the subjects were divided into four groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic spline regression analysis were employed to explore the correlation between serum vitamin D level and heart failure.Results There were statistically significant differences among the four groups in terms of age,gender,educational at-tainment,race,diabetes,hypertension,alcohol consumption,physical activity,and body mass index(P＜0.05).The incidence rates of heart failure in the four vitamin D quartile groups(from low to high)were 3.9％,2.7％,2.9％and 4.1％respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that,compared with the subjects in the first quartile group of vitamin D,the odds ratios(OR)and 95％confidence intervals(CI)of heart failure in the second,third,and fourth quartile groups of vitamin D were 0.64(0.46 to 0.89),0.53(0.38 to 0.73)and 0.48(0.35 to 0.66)respectively,and the trend test showed P was less than 0.001.The results of restricted cubic spline regression analysis indicated that serum vitamin D level was non-linearly negatively correlated with heart failure(non-linear test P=0.005).At the initial stage,the risk of heart failure decreased with the increase in vitamin D level;when the vitamin D level reached a certain level,the risk of heart failure tended to stabilize or even increase slightly.Con-clusion Serum vitamin D level is non-linearly negatively correlated with the risk of heart failure.

Objective　To understand the impact of early and timely treatment and initial antiviral treatment regimen on mortality and attrition of antiretroviral therapy. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted using download data on antiretroviral therapy for HIV-infected patients in Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province, from the database of the Basic Information System for AIDS Control and Prevention (BISAC) from 2010 to 2020. The Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of mortality and attrition. Results A total of 15 713 infected patients were included, including 53.4% aged 18-<50 years, 69.4% male, 61.0% farmer, 75.1% CD4 count <350 cells /μL before initial antiviral treatment, the overall mortality rate was 4.30/100 person-years, and the overall attrition was 2.42/100 person-years. The results of Cox regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of mortality were pretreatment CD4 counts of 350-<500 cells/μL(AHR=0.72, 95%CI: 0.63-0.81) and ≥500 cells/μL (AHR= 0.64, 95%CI: 0.55-0.76); duration from diagnosis to initial antiviral treatment 91-180 days (AHR=1.25, 95%CI: 1.08-1.45), 181-365 days (AHR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.08-1.47), and ≥365 days (AHR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.11-1.44); initial antiviral treatment regimens of D4T+3TC+EFV/NVP (AHR=1.47, 95%CI: 1.32-1.63) and AZT/D4T/TDF+3TC+LPV/r (AHR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.50-1.99). Factors affecting attrition were pretreatment CD4 counts of 350-499 cells/μL (AHR=1.32, 95%CI: 1.16-1.50) and ≥500 cells/μL (AHR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.10-1.50); interval from HIV positivity confirmation to initial dosing ≥365 days (AHR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.04-1.40), initial antiviral treatment regimens of TDF+3TC+NVP (AHR=1.32, 95%CI: 1.13-1.55), AZT+3TC+EFV/NVP (AHR=1.43, 95%CI: 1.26-1.62) and AZT/D4T/TDF+3TC+LPV/r (AHR=1.33, 95CI%: 1.06-1.67). Conclusions　Early and timely treatment and the initial antiviral treatment regimen of TDF+3TC+EFV have good efficacy, but attention should be paid to the high risk of attrition of HIV-infected people with high CD4 count before treatment.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Hubei province, and to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC patients with COPD. Methods A total of 246 NSCLC patients admitted to our hospital from 2018 to 2020 were selected and divided into control group (without COPD, n=125) and observation group (with COPD, n=121) according to COPD. The clinical characteristics of chest pain, hemoptysis, emasculation, atelectasis and pleural effusion were compared between the two groups. The values of FEV1/FVC, RV/TLC and DLCO in the two groups were measured by pulmonary function detector. The age, gender, smoking, smoking history, proportion of lung squamous cell carcinoma, TNM stage and other clinical data of all subjects were analyzed by self-made survey scale of our hospital. Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of COPD in NSCLC patients. Results Among 246 NSCLC patients, 121 patients (49.19%) were complicated with COPD, including 76 males and 45 females, and there was a statistical difference between the two groups (χ²=4.891, P>0.05). The average age of the observation group (61.02±4.82) was significantly higher than that of the control group (59.76±4.73) (t=2.069, P<0.05). The proportion of chest pain, hemoptysis, emaciation, atelectasis, pleural effusion and fatigue in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The values of FEV1/FVC, RV/TLC and DLCO in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were significant differences in smoking history, proportion of lung squamous cell carcinoma and TNM score between the two groups (P>0.05). Male (OR=2.982), smoking history (OR=2.623) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (OR=3.147) were risk factors for COPD in NSCLC patients (P<0.05). Conclusions NSCLC patients with COPD are more common in male smokers in Hubei Province, often accompanied by pleural effusion , severe hemoptysis and other symptoms , and their lung function is decreased. Early detection and standardized treatment of COPD in the treatment of NSCLC can improve the prognosis of patients.
