OBJECTIVE To establish a Chinese drug-related problem （DRP） classification system applicable to pharmacist-led pharmaceutical care in China， providing pharmacists with an effective and practical tool for pharmaceutical care. METHODS A multi-stage process was employed to construct the DRP classification system， including literature review and analysis， comparison of existing classification systems， refinement of classification items and framework development， two rounds of standard case validation， expert discussion， and system revision. The Fleiss′ kappa test was used to calculate the consistency coefficient κ， assessing the reliability of pharmacists participating in evaluating the classification system. An electronic questionnaire comprising six items was employed to evaluate the system’s applicability. RESULTS The constructed Chinese DRP classification system comprised six sections [problem（including potential problems）， DRP evaluation， cause （including possible causes of potential problems）， intervention， acceptance of intervention and DRP status]， with 24 primary codes and 96 secondary codes. In the first round of case validation， κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections except “intervention” and “DRP status”. In the second round， κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections. In the applicability evaluation of the classification system， positive ratings （“strongly agree” or “agree”） exceeded 85% for all items. Specifically， positive ratings for“the classification system can provide appropriate category selection”，“ the classification system is comprehensive”，“ the classification system is convenient to use” and “the classification system is highly satisfactory” exceeded 92%. CONCLUSIONS The Chinese DRP classification system developed demonstrates both high reliability and applicability， providing an effective and practical classification tool for pharmacists in China to conduct pharmaceutical care.

Objective: To analyze the association between drinking behaviors and anxiety symptoms, with the mediating role of insomnia symptoms among college freshmen, so as to provide a reference basis for reducing the occurrence of anxiety symptoms in college freshmen. Methods: From October to December 2021, 31 856 freshmen were selected by the purposive sampling method in 22 colleges across 11 provinces (Fujian, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Henan, Anhui, Hubei, Shanxi, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Chongqing) in China. The Semi quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire was used to investigate college freshmen drinking behaviors. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale 21 and the Insomnia Severity Index were used to assess anxiety symptoms and insomnia symptoms in college freshmen. The generalized linear model was employed to analyze the association between drinking behaviors and anxiety symptoms in college freshmen, and the structural equation modeling was used to assess the mediating effect of insomnia symptoms on the association. Results: The detection rate of anxiety symptoms among college freshmen was 28.2%, the detection rates of the mild, moderate, severe and extremely severe were 6.6%, 15.9%, 3.2% and 2.6%, respectively. While 23.6% of college freshmen reported drinking in the past month, the rates were 39.8% among boys and 15.9% among girls. After adjusting for demographic variables (ethnicity, education, major, etc.) and confounding variables (self evaluation of learning burden, number of close friends, screen time, etc.), the results of generalized linear model analysis showed that beer consumption was associated with anxiety symptoms in college freshmen( β =0.09, 95% CI =0.04-0.14), girls( β =0.14, 95% CI =0.07-0.21) and those aged 19-20 years ( β =0.12, 95% CI =0.05-0.19)(all P <0.05). Red wine consumption was associated with anxiety symptoms in male students ( β =0.13, 95% CI =0.02-0.24, P <0.05). Alcohol and beer consumption were associated with insomnia in college freshmen[ β (95% CI ) =0.22(0.08-0.36),0.31(0.23-0.39),both P <0.01]. Insomnia symptoms partially mediated the association between drinking behaviors and anxiety symptoms among college freshmen with a mediating effect value of 0.05, accounting for 50.49% of the total effect. Conclusions Insomnia symptoms partially mediates the association between drinking behaviors and anxiety symptoms in college freshmen. Measures should be taken to simultaneously intervene in the drinking behaviors and insomnia symptoms of college freshmen to prevent the occurrence of their anxiety symptoms.

Activating transcription factor 5 (ATF5) is a member of the activating transcription factor/cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein (ATF/CREB) family. As a stress-induced transcription factor, ATF5 plays a crucial role in cellular inflammatory stress responses. Under cellular inflammatory stress conditions, ATF5 maintains cell homeostasis and survival by regulating key genes in the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPR^mt) and endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). As a key regulator in UPR^mt, ATF5 senses mitochondrial stress and translocate to the nucleus to activate the transcription of UPR^mt-related genes, thereby promoting mitochondrial function recovery. Meanwhile, in ERS, ATF5 maintains endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis by regulating the expression of genes related to protein folding, degradation, and apoptosis, determining cell survival or death. ATF5 plays a vital role in various cellular inflammatory stress responses. In infectious inflammation, ATF5 plays an important role in alleviating neuroinflammation and maintaining intestinal barrier function by regulating UPR^mt. In inflammation related to degenerative diseases, ATF5 improves intervertebral disc degeneration and delays the progression of osteoarthritis by regulating UPR^mt. In metabolic inflammation such as diabetes and obesity, ATF5 regulates UPR^mt and ERS to maintain the function of pancreatic β-cells, controlling their survival or inducing apoptosis, thus influencing the progression of diabetes. ATF5 protects mitochondria in the kidneys, adipose tissue, and pancreas, slows the progression of diabetic nephropathy, and improves insulin sensitivity. Furthermore, in immune-related inflammation, ATF5 alleviates glomerulonephritis and promotes tissue repair by enhancing immune tolerance in dendritic cells. In summary, ATF5, as a key regulator in cellular inflammatory stress responses, maintains cell homeostasis through regulating UPR^mt and ERS and determines cell fate. Its critical regulatory role in cellular inflammatory stress responses makes ATF5 a potential clinical therapeutic target. This article summarizes the structural features and translational regulatory mechanisms of ATF5, focusing on its role in cellular inflammatory stress responses, particularly its regulatory mechanisms in UPR^mt and ERS, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for understanding ATF5's role in cell and organ protection and to offer new insights into the treatment of related inflammatory diseases.

Objective To investigate the screening results and factors affecting abnormal detection rates among high-risk groups of esophageal cancer and to explore effective intervention measures. Methods We investigated and collected the information on gender, education level, age, marital status, symptoms of reflux esophagitis (heartburn, acid reflux, belching, hiccup, foreign body sensation in the pharynx, and difficulty swallowing), consumption of pickled vegetables, salt use, and esophageal cancer incidence of villagers in a natural village in Wenfeng District, Anyang City, Henan Province. Changes in reflux esophagitis symptoms in the high-incidence area of esophageal cancer before and after 16 years were observed, and the relationship of such changes with esophageal cancer was analyzed. Results In 2008, 711 cases were epidemiologically investigated, including 213 cases with one of the symptoms of reflux esophagitis such as heartburn, acid reflux, belching, hiccups, foreign body sensation in the pharynx, and difficulty swallowing (sorted in accordance with the abovementioned symptoms; if there are multiple symptoms, then the former is taken); 55 cases with at least two related symptoms, among which the most symptom was heartburn in 108 cases (15.1%); followed by acid reflux, belching, etc. In 2024, the same group of people was investigated, and eight people were missing because of relocation. A total of 703 people were successfully investigated, of which 189 cases (26.8%) had one of the symptoms of reflux esophagitis, such as heartburn (sorted in accordance with relevant symptoms, if there are multiple symptoms, then the former will be selected); 167 cases (23.7%) had at least two related symptoms, among which the most symptom was heartburn in 139 cases (19.7%); followed by acid reflux. Over 16 years, among the 703 people investigated, 45 cases had esophageal cancer and they had one or more of the abovementioned symptoms. No significant differences in the reflux esophagitis-like symptoms were found between 2008 and 2024 (P=0.26); no significant differences in the composition of reflux esophagitis-like symptoms were found between 2008 and 2024 (P=0.299). Conclusion The detection rate of reflux esophagitis-related symptoms in the population in a high-risk area of esophageal cancer has not decreased in the past 16 years, and the high-risk factors still exist. Esophageal cancer is closely related to reflux esophagitis, and clinical practice can provide early diagnosis and treatment for high-risk population.

Objective:To investigate the impacts of preoperative regional arterial infusion chemotherapy(PRAC)combined with laparoscopic surgery on the efficacy,safety,immune function,and serum levels of matrix metallopro-teinase-7(MMP-7)and human cartilage glycoprotein(YKL-40)in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods:This study retrospectively selected 164 patients with colorectal cancer(January 2014 to December 2016)as the research subjects.Patients who underwent conventional treatment and laparoscopic surgery were included into control group(81 cases);patients undergoing PRAC+laparoscopic surgery were included into observation group(83 cases).The clinical efficacy,stress response indicators,immune function related indicators,changes in serum MMP-7 and YKL-40 levels,and occurrence of adverse reactions in two groups were observed before treatment(T0)and after 4 cycles of chemotherapy(T1).Results:At T1,the total effective rate of observation group(85.54%)was greatly higher than that of control group(67.90%)(P<0.05).The levels of cortisol(Cor),neutrophile granulocyte(NE),white blood cell count(WBC),and interleukin(IL)-6 were prominently increased in both groups(P<0.05),but the levels of these indicators in observation group were greatly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The levels of IgM and IgA in both groups were greatly reduced(P<0.05),but the levels of IgM and IgA in observation group were prominently higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The levels of MMP-7 and YKL-40 decreased in both groups(P<0.05),and the level in observation group was prominently lower than that in control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the overall incidence of adverse reactions and 5-year survival rate between control group and observation group(P>0.05).Conclusion:The combination of PRAC and laparoscopic surgery has prominent healing effects and certain safety in patients with colorectal cancer.It can effectively improve immune function,reduce serum MMP-7 and YKL-40 levels.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of darolutamide in the treatment of patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 17 cases of prostate cancer patients who received treatment with darolutamide in combination with ADT at our hospital from January to December 2022. The median age was 70 (range: 56 to 92) years old. The median pre-treatment prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level was 63.50 (range: 29.16 to 700.74) ng/ml. Sixteen cases had a Gleason score of 8 or above, and 11 cases were classified as high tumor burden (with four or more bone metastases and/or visceral metastases). The patients were treated with darolutamide in combination with goserelin (10.8 mg, subcutaneous injection, every 12 weeks). The decrease in PSA levels was observed at 2 weeks and at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months post-treatment. The time to achieve a 50% decrease in PSA level (PSA50), a 90% decrease (PSA90), and a PSA level of ≤0.2 ng/ml was recorded.Adverse drug reactions were also documented.Results:All the 17 patients were followed up and continued to receive darolutamide at our center without any loss to follow-up. The median follow-up time was 11.4(8.9, 15.3)months. It showed a median PSA decrease from baseline of 83.33% at 2 weeks, 95.37% at 1 month, 96.71% at 2 months, 97.22% at 3 months, and 99.10% at 6 months. The median time to achieve PSA50, PSA90, and PSA ≤ 0.2 ng/ml were 1.3 (0.9, 1.7)months, 1.7 (1.2, 2.4)months, and 3.6 (2.9, 4.5)months respectively. Six patients with bone metastases experienced relief of metastatic lesions after treatment. Only one patient developed papules on the left upper limb, which were assessed as grade 1 rash, and the rash disappeared after three days treatment of topical application of hydrocortisone cream.Conclusions:Darolutamide could rapidly control and significantly reduce PSA levels in prostate cancer patients, with a favorable safety profile.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase(IDH)wild-type glioma is a type of highly invasive brain tumor with poor prognosis and a high recur-rence rate.The recurrence process is driven by multiple complex and interwoven factors.Although the current standard treatment regi-mens can temporarily alleviate patients'symptoms,they still face significant challenges in effectively preventing tumor recurrence.The re-currence mechanism of this tumor is intricate and covers multiple aspects such as genomic instability,maintenance of stem cell characterist-ics and mesenchymal transformation,as well as dynamic changes in the tumor microenvironment.This article aims to comprehensively sum-marize the recurrence mechanism of glioblastoma and deeply explore potential countermeasures targeting these mechanisms,hoping to open up new perspectives and approaches for the treatment of recurrent tumors.

Objective:To investigate the mechanisms of baicalin in treating septic acute liver injury through a combination of network pharmacology and animal experiments.Methods:Thirty male C57BL/6 mice (6 weeks old) were divided into five groups ( n=6): control group (normal saline), model group [lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 10 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection], low-dose baicalin group (10 mg/kg), high-dose baicalin group (20 mg/kg), and baicalin-only group (20 mg/kg, without LPS). Baicalin was administered orally for 14 consecutive days prior to modeling. Mice were sacrificed 24 h after LPS injection. Alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase liver tissue histopathology were measured; neutrophil infiltration was visualized using immunofluorescence; mRNA expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-17, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were detected by RT-qPCR; and the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and phosphorylated nuclear factor (NF)-κB proteins were analyzed by Western blotting. Results:In the LPS model group, the ALT, AST, and histopathological injury score were (148.60±22.02) U/L, (81.58±11.59) U/L, and 8.50(7.75, 9.25), respectively. These indicators were significantly reduced in the high-dose baicalin group with (77.90±16.79) U/L, (49.92±14.89) U/L, and 1.00(1.00, 2.25) (all P<0.05). Compared with the LPS group, neutrophil infiltration in the liver of high-dose baicalin group was also significantly reduced [1.18%(0.98%, 1.22%) vs. 6.13%(5.41%, 8.69%), P<0.05]. RT-qPCR results showed that the relative mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-1β [(1.03±0.06) vs. (2.60±0.34)], IL-17 [(1.21±0.12) vs. (2.94 ± 0.39)], IL-6 [(1.37±0.26) vs. (2.73±0.18)], and TNF-α [(1.18±0.10) vs. (3.30±0.92)] were significantly decreased in the high-dose baicalin group compared with the LPS group (all P<0.05). Western blot analysis revealed that the relative protein expression levels of TLR4 [(1.25±0.13) vs. (1.73±0.06)] and phosphorylated NF-κB [(1.25±0.25) vs. (1.79±0.12)] were also significantly lower in the high-dose baicalin group (both P<0.05). Conclusion:Baicalin reduces liver injury in septic mice by downregula-ting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-17, potentially through the inhibition of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND: Biomarkers-based prediction of long-term risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is scarce. We aim to develop a risk score integrating clinical routine information (C) and plasma biomarkers (B) for predicting long-term risk of ACS patients. METHODS: We included 2729 ACS patients from the OCEA (Observation of cardiovascular events in ACS patients). The earlier admitted 1910 patients were enrolled as development cohort; and the subsequently admitted 819 subjects were treated as validation cohort. We investigated 10-year risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI) and all cause death in these patients. Potential variables contributing to risk of clinical events were assessed using Cox regression models and a score was derived using main part of these variables. RESULTS: During 16,110 person-years of follow-up, there were 238 CV death/MI in the development cohort. The 7 most important predictors including in the final model were NT-proBNP, D-dimer, GDF-15, peripheral artery disease (PAD), Fibrinogen, ST-segment elevated MI (STEMI), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), termed as CB-ACS score. C-index of the score for predication of cardiovascular events was 0.79 (95% CI: 0.76-0.82) in development cohort and 0.77 (95% CI: 0.76-0.78) in the validation cohort (5832 person-years of follow-up), which outperformed GRACE 2.0 and ABC-ACS risk score. The CB-ACS score was also well calibrated in development and validation cohort (Greenwood-Nam-D'Agostino: P = 0.70 and P = 0.07, respectively). CONCLUSIONS CB-ACS risk score provides a useful tool for long-term prediction of CV events in patients with ACS. This model outperforms GRACE 2.0 and ABC-ACS ischemic risk score.
