Objective To explore the application effect of medication therapy management(MTM)services on the treatment of childhood asthma.Methods A total of 107 children aged 5-11 with asthma who visited the Cough and Asthma Pharmacy Clinic of Hebei General Hospital from July to December 2022 were selected,and randomly divided into the control group(50 cases)and the intervention group(52 cases).The control group of children only received single inhalation medication education services at the first visit.The intervention group received standardized MTM services throughout the entire process.The economic,clinical and human outcomes(ECHO)model was used to analyze the differences between the two groups of children in economic(medication costs,cost-effectiveness ratio),clinical(ACT score,correct rate of inhaled preparation,number of asthma attacks)and humanistic(EQ-5D-5L utility value,Morisky medication compliance,patient satisfaction)results before the intervention,3 months after the intervention,and 6 months after the intervention,evaluate the application effect of MTM services in children with asthma.Results Compared with the control group,there was no significant difference between the two groups before the intervention.After the intervention,the children in the intervention group showed statistically significant differences in economic,clinical,and humanistic outcomes(P<0.05).Conclusions The MTM service led by pharmacists can benefit children with asthma from multiple dimensions such as economy,clinical practice,and humanities.This not only enables long-term effective control of asthma in children,but also enhances pharmacist pharmacy specialist service capabilities.

Objective:To understand the prevalence and epidemiological characteristics of glaucoma among people over 40 years old in rural areas of Chongqing.Methods:From August to October 2018, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to investigate the cases of glaucoma among people over 40 years old in a rural population of the Rongchang and Qijiang Districts in Chongqing.The subjects had been living in the local area for over ten years.Basic information for each patient, including gender and age was documented, and their visual acuity and intraocular pressure were routinely measured.The Van Herick method was used to evaluate the depth of the central and peripheral anterior chamber, a preset lens was used to examine the fundus, and the cup to disc ratio(C/D) of the optic disc was emphasized.All suspected glaucoma patients underwent further standard glaucoma examinations.This study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University.Results:A total of 4 680 people were identified, and 4 073 respondents participated in the survey, and the response rate was 87%.The prevalence of glaucoma was 1.72% (70/4 073). There were no significant differences in the prevalence of primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) between different genders ( χ2=0.042, P=0.837; χ2=2.838, P=0.092). The prevalence of glaucoma in people over 70 years old was 2.5%, significantly higher than that in other age groups.In patients with glaucoma, the rate of visual impairment was 68.57%(48/70), and the rate of blindness was 47.14%(33/70). There was no significant difference in the incidence of low vision between different types of glaucoma ( χ2=2.785, P=0.248), but there was a significant difference in the rate of blindness ( χ2=10.668, P=0.005). The highest rate of blindness was found in secondary glaucoma.The detection rate of intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth and C/D was statistically significant ( χ2=43.325, P<0.001), and the positive rate of C/D was the highest.When the factors of intraocular pressure, and C/D were considered jointly, the detection rate of glaucoma could be increased to 55.88%. Conclusions:The prevalence of glaucoma is 1.72% among people over 40 years old in rural areas of Chongqing, the prevalence of PACG is lower than previously recorded, but the proportion of glaucoma-induced visual impairment is higher.In field screening, the morphological examination of the fundus optic nerve is very important for the diagnosis of glaucoma.

Objective:To study the incidence and risk factors of central vein stenosis (CVS) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients who received arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation for the first time, as well as effects of CVS on patency of ipsilateral AVF.Methods:It was a retrospective study. The CKD patients who received AVF creation for the first time in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to August 2020, with central vein digital subtraction angiography (DSA) results prior to angioplasty were selected as the study subjects. The differences of incidence of CVS in CKD patients with/without a history of cervical catheterization and primary patency rates of AVF between CVS and non-CVS groups were compared. Logistic regression analysis method was applied to analyze the influencing factors of CVS in CKD patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the primary patency rate of AVF. Cox regression analysis method was used to analyze the effect of CVS on the primary patency of ipsilateral AVF.Results:A total of 283 CKD patients aged (50.45±14.76) years were enrolled in the study, including 165 males (58.3%). The dialysis age was 0.5 (0, 7.0) months. There were 55 patients (19.4%) diagnosed with CVS before AVF, including 39 patients with stenosis <50% and 16 patients with stenosis ≥50%. The incidence of CVS in patients with history of right internal jugular vein central venous catheter insertion was significantly higher than that in those without this history [60.5% (26/43) vs. 9.9% (15/151), χ2=51.274, P<0.001]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that hemodialysis catheters indwelling time ≥3 months elevated the risk of CVS ( OR=4.345, 95% CI 1.540-12.263, P=0.006). A subset of 268 patients who had AVF creation ipsilateral to CVS were analyzed to determine the effects of CVS on patency of AVF. The median follow-up time was 34 months. The primary patency rate of AVF in the moderate to severe CVS group was significantly lower than that in the non-CVS group (5/7 vs. 58/228, χ2=7.720, P=0.005). The primary patency rates of AVF in the subclavian vein stenosis group and superior vena cava stenosis group were significantly lower than those in the brachiocephalic vein stenosis group (4/5 vs. 8/27, χ 2=6.974, P=0.008; 6/8 vs. 8/27, χ 2=6.908, P=0.009, respectively). Moderate to severe CVS and combined diabetes were independent influencing factors of primary patency of AVF ( HR=4.362, 95% CI 1.644-11.574, P=0.003; HR=2.682, 95% CI 1.624-4.431, P<0.001, respectively). Conclusions:The incidence of CVS is higher in CKD patients who establish an arteriovenous fistula for the first time. Hemodialysis catheter indwelling time ≥3 months is an independent risk factor of CVS. The moderate to severe CVS is an independent risk factor of primary patency of AVF.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for constructing scientific and reasonable pharmaceutical service mode for hospitalized patients with chronic airway diseases. METHODS From October 2023 to March 2024， 250 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute exacerbation of asthma who were hospitalized in the respiratory department of Hebei General Hospital and received pharmaceutical care （PC） were randomly divided into control group （125 cases） and observation group （125 cases）. The control group received general pharmaceutical services throughout their hospitalization， while the observation group received standardized and graded pharmaceutical services throughout their hospitalization. The differences in clinical value indicators， humanistic value indicators， and quality management indicators were compared among different PC service models. RESULTS Among clinical value evaluation indicators， the observation group had better achievement rate of disease treatment goals， correct use score of inhalation devices， the incidence of adverse drug reactions， and the number of drug-related problems solved than the control group （P＜0.05）. Among the humanistic evaluation indicators， compared with the control group， the observation group had better medication compliance scores， pharmacist intervention success rates， and patient satisfaction scores （P＜0.05）. Among quality management evaluation indicators， the proportion of drug costs， the proportion of intravenous medication， the use rate of antibiotics， the intensity of antibiotic use， and the number of pharmaceutical services in the observation group were significantly better than the control group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Standardized and graded pharmaceutical care services have improved the efficiency of pharmacists and service effectiveness， making it a new pharmaceutical service model worth promoting.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of different treatment regimens as first-line treatment for metastatic urothelial carcinoma （UC） using a network meta-analysis （NMA） approach. METHODS Electronic databases including PubMed， the Cochrane Library， Embase， Wanfang Data， CNKI， and VIP were searched for randomized controlled clinical trials （RCTs） on first-line treatment for metastatic UC from January 1， 2010 to January 31， 2024. After literature screening and data extraction， a risk of bias assessment of included studies was conducted. R software （version 4.3.2） was used to perform the NMA. RESULTS A total of 11 RCTs involving 14 treatment interventions were included. No significant differences were noted in objective response rate among groups， with the combination of pembrolizumab， gemcitabine and cisplatin having the highest probability of ranking first. Regarding progression-free survival （PFS） and overall survival （OS）， no significant differences were observed among groups， while enfortumab vedotin combined with pembrolizumab showed a trend towards better PFS extension compared to gemcitabine combined with cisplatin [HR＝0.45， 95%CI（0.20，1.06）， P＝0.049]， and it had the highest probability of ranking first in both PFS and OS. CONCLUSIONS The combination of enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may have an advantage in prolonging survival in the first-line treatments for metastatic UC.
