OBJECTIVE To summarize the current situation of pharmaceutical clinic service in our hospital over the past five years， and explore sustainable development strategies for service models of pharmaceutical clinics. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the consultation records of patients who registered and established files at the pharmaceutical clinic in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2023. Statistical analysis was performed on patients’ general information， medication- related problems， and types of pharmaceutical services provided by pharmacists. RESULTS A total of 963 consultation records were included， among which females aged 20-39 years accounted for the highest proportion （66.04%）； obstetrics and gynecology- related consultations accounted for the largest number of cases. Additionally， 80 patients attended follow-up visits at our hospital’s pharmaceutical clinic. A total of 1 029 medication-related issues were resolved， including 538 cases of drug consultations （52.28%）， 453 medication recommendations （44.02%）， 22 medication restructuring（2.14%）， and 16 medication education （1.55%）； the most common types of medication-related problems identified were adverse drug events（70.07%）. CONCLUSIONS Although the pharmaceutical clinic has achieved recognition from clinicians and patients， challenges such as low awareness among healthcare providers and the public persist. Future efforts should focus on strengthening information technology construction， enhancing pharmacist training， and establishing various forms of outpatient pharmaceutical service models.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of blue light on emmetropization in guinea pigs， explore the potential mechanisms and assess its application in myopia prevention and control. MethodsThree-week-old male guinea pigs （n=20） were randomly assigned to the white light group and the blue light group. Refraction and ocular biological parameters were measured every 2 weeks until the experiment ended at week 8. And the 4D-data-independent acquisition （4D-DIA） proteomics technology was used to analyze retina from both the blue light and white light groups， exploring protein composition， expression differences， and biological functions. ResultsAfter 2 weeks， Guinea pigs exposed to white light gradually tended towards emmetropia， showing a statistically significant difference in refractive error compared to the blue light group （P<0.001）. From week 4， the axial length of the blue light group was significantly shorter than that of the white light group （P<0.05）. Meanwhile， the vitreous chamber length in the blue light group was significantly smaller than that of the white light group from week 2 （P<0.05）. A total of 161 differentially expressed proteins were identified by proteomics technology in the retina， with 98 proteins upregulated and 63 proteins downregulated. These proteins were primarily enriched in biosynthetic pathways such as vesicle transport， redox reaction， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism and NAD+ metabolism. ConclusionsGuinea pigs raised under blue light exhibit hyperopic drift and slowed axial elongation， which slows the procession of emmetropization. Based on the 4D-DIA technology， the differentially expressed proteins between the blue light and white light groups are primarily involved in NAD+ metabolism， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism. Especially in NAD+ salvage synthesis， nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase （NAMPT） is upregulated， while sirtuin 2 （SIRT2） is downregulated. It provides new insights into the mechanism of blue light in emmetropization and a theoretical basis for myopia prevention and control.

ObjectiveThe proteome of biological evidence contains rich genetic information, namely single amino acid polymorphisms (SAPs) in protein sequences. However, due to the lack of efficient and convenient analysis tools, the application of SAP in public security still faces many challenges. This paper aims to meet the application requirements of SAP analysis for forensic biological evidence’s proteome data. MethodsThe software is divided into three modules. First, based on a built-in database of common non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) and SAPs in East Asian populations, the software integrates and annotates newly identified exonic nsSNPs as SAPs, thereby constructing a customized SAP protein sequence database. It then utilizes a pre-installed search engine—either pFind or MaxQuant—to perform analysis and output SAP typing results, identifying both reference and variant types, along with their corresponding imputed nsSNPs. Finally, SAPTyper compares the proteome-based typing results with the individual’s exome-derived nsSNP profile and outputs the comparison report. ResultsSAPTyper accepts proteomic DDA mass spectrometry raw data (DDA acquisition mode) and exome sequencing results of nsSNPs as input and outputs the report of SAPs result. The pFind and Maxquant search engines were used to test the proteome data of 2 hair shafts of2 individuals, and both obtained SAP results. It was found that the results of the Maxquant search engine were slightly less than those of pFind. This result shows that SAPTyper can achieve SAP fingding function. Moreover, the pFind search engine was used to test the proteome data of 3 hair shafts from 1 European person and 1 African person in the literature. Among the sites fully matched by the literature method, sites detected by SAPTyper are also included; for semi-matching sites, that is, nsSNPs are heterozygous, both literature method and SAPTyper method had the risk of missing detection for one type of the allele. Comparing the analysis results of SAPTyper with the SAP test results reported in the literature, it was found that some imputed nsSNP sites identified by the literature method but not detected by SAPTyper had a MAF of less than 0.1% in East Asian populations, and therefore they were not included in the common nsSNP database of East Asian populations constructed by this software. Since the database construction of this software is based on the genetic variation information of East Asian populations, it is currently unable to effectively identify representative unique common variation sites in European or African populations, but it can still identify SAP sites shared by these populations and East Asian populations. ConclusionAn automated SAP analysis algorithm was developed for East Asian populations, and the software named SAPTyper was developed. This software provides a convenient and efficient analysis tool for the research and application of forensic proteomic SAP and has important application prospects in individual identification and phenotypic inference based on SAP.

Cancer is a major global health issue. Effective therapeutic strategies can prolong patients’ survival and reduce the costs of treatment. Drug repurposing, which identifies new therapeutic uses for approved drugs, is a promising approach with the advantages of reducing research costs, shortening development time, and increasing efficiency and safety. Disulfiram (DSF), a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug used to treat chronic alcoholism, has a great potential as an anticancer drug by targeting diverse human malignancies. Several studies show the antitumor effects of DSF, particularly the combination of DSF and copper (DSF/Cu), on a wide range of cancers such as glioblastoma (GBM), breast cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and melanoma. In this review, we summarize the antitumor mechanisms of DSF/Cu, including induction of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and various cell death signaling pathways, and inhibition of proteasome activity, as well as inhibition of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling. Furthermore, we highlight the ability of DSF/Cu to target cancer stem cells (CSCs), which provides a new approach to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis. Strikingly, DSF/Cu inhibits several molecular targets associated with drug resistance, and therefore it is becoming a novel option to increase the sensitivity of chemo-resistant and radio-resistant patients. Studies of DSF/Cu may shed light on its improved application to clinical tumor treatment.

Objective To compare the incidence of superior facet joint violation in patients with different preoperative diagnoses in posterior lumbar interbody fusion.Methods The clinical data of 320 patients who underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion from January 2018 to December 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed,and the preoperative diagnoses were including the lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis,degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis,and isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis.The superior facet joint violation was graded based on the postoperative lumbar CT,the incidences of superior facet joint intrusion of patients with different preoperative diagnosis were compared,and the correlations between relevant parameters(including the apical vertebrae of fixation segments,facet joint angle,depth of lamina,introversion angle of pedicle screw,axial diameter of facet joint,and slippage length of vertebrae)with superior facet joint violation and preoperative diagnoses were investigated.Results The incidence of superior facet joint violation in the patients with isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis(57.4%)was higher than that in the patients with lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis(41.2%)and degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis(35.9%),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The apical vertebrae of fixation segments,facet joint angle,axial diameter of facet joint and introversion angle of pedicle screw were related with the occurrence of superior facet joint violation(P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the facet joint angle,axial diameter of facet joint and apical vertebrae of fixation segments among patients with different preoperative diagnoses(P<0.05).Conclusion Patients with isthmiclumbar spondylolisthesis are more likely to occur superior facet joint violation than patients with lumbar disc herniation/lumbar spinal canal stenosis and degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis.
