OBJECTIVE To formulate Guidelines for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics （ 2026 edition ） in response to the challenges faced by such clinics in China， including uneven development， large discrepancies in service specifications， insufficient patient awareness， and limited medical insurance coverage. METHODS Led by the Pharmaceutical Affairs Professional Committee of the Chinese Hospital Association， the Evidence-based Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association， and the Hospital Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Cross-strait Medical and Health Exchange Association， a total of 19 domestic hospital pharmacy experts were organized. Through a systematic review of national policies and literature research， current practical experience was summarized. Consensus on the contents of the guidelines was reached after in-depth discussions. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS The guidelines covered five sections： definition and connotation of pharmacist-managed clinics， establishment requirements， implementation and management， post competency， and practical research. Firstly， the definition and connotation included three operational forms of pharmacist-managed clinics （independent mode， physician-pharmacist joint mode， and online pharmacist-managed clinic mode） and classified service modes （specialty-specific， drug-specific， and disease-specific pharmacist-managed clinics）. The establishment requirements were further refined， covering system construction （pharmaceutical service management system， quality control and assessment mechanism）， personnel qualifications （professional credentials， continuing education and professional training， etc）， service recipients， as well as service venues and facilities. Subsequently， the implementation and management of pharmacist-managed clinics were proposed， involving service procedures， intervention measures， documentation and records， patient education and follow-up， humanistic care， as well as risk management and quality control. Finally， post competency encompassed the competency requirements for pharmacists providing services in pharmacist-managed clinics， as well as the suggestions on teaching methods； practical research encouraged the conduct of high-quality pharmaceutical practice in the setting of pharmacist-managed clinics. The guidelines provide valuable guidance for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics in China in terms of establishment， management， teaching， and research， fill the guideline gap in this field， and can promote the high-quality development of pharmacist-managed clinics.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the therapeutic effect of aucubin in mice with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and investigate the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Sixty C57BL/6J mice were randomized equally into sham operation group, KOA model group, glucosamine (positive control) treatment group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose aucubin treatment groups (2, 4, and 8 mg/kg, respectively). KOA mouse models were established by transection of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), and the treatment was initiated on day 1 postoperatively and administered weekly for 8 weeks. Safranin O-fast green staining, immunohistochemistry, and microCT were used to evaluate the changes in cartilage pathology, inflammatory protein expression, and subchondral bone volume fraction (BV/TV). The expression levesl of COL2, SOX9, p-P65, IL-1β and MMP13 proteins in the cartilage tissues were detected using Western blotting. In a chondrocyte model with IL-1β treatment for mimicking KOA, the effect of aucubin on chondrogenic differentiation was observed with Alcian blue and Safranin O staining, and cellular COL2, SOX9 and TNF‑α mRNA expressions were detected with RT-qPCR. RESULTS: Compared with those in the model group, the mouse models receiving aucubin treatment showed significantly upregulated COL2 and SOX9 protein levels and downregulated p-P65, IL-1β and MMP13 expressions in the cartilage tissues. In the IL-1β-induced chondrocyte model, aucubin treatment significantly upregulated the mRNA expressions of SOX9 and COL2 but lowered the mRNA expression of TNF-α. Alcian blue and Safranin O staining confirmed that aucubin promoted the synthesis of cartilage extracellular matrix and enhanced chondrogenic differentiation of the cells. CONCLUSIONS Aucubin can effectively alleviate KOA in mice by inhibiting NF‑κB-mediated cartilage inflammation, promoting cartilage matrix synthesis, and improving subchondral bone microstructure.

Objective:To investigate the neuro-electrophysiological characteristics of patients with primary brain stem hemorrhage (PBSH).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 17 PBSH patients with Glasgow coma score 3 to 8 points who were admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 14 males and 3 females, with an age( M (IQR)) of 46.0(14.0) years (range: 18.0 to 70.0 years).All patients underwent electro-physiological monitoring within 28 days after the onset of the disease. According to Glasgow outcome scale(GOS) 6 months after onset, PBSH patients were divided into two groups: unregained consciousness group with (GOS 1 to 2 points, 13 cases) and regained consciousness group (GOS 3 to 5 points, 4 cases). The neuro-electrophysiological indicators involved in this study included short latency somosensory evoked potential (SLSEP) component N20, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP), electroencephalogram (EEG) background activity, EEG reactivity (EEG-R), EEG sleep structure waves, absolute amplitude of N1 at electrode Fz (FzN1A) and Cz (CzN1A), respectively, absolute amplitude of mismatch negativity at electrode Fz (FzMMNA) and Cz (CzMMNA), respectively. Then, the Fisher exact probability test and Mann Whitney U test were used for counting data and measurement data, respectively, to analyze the differences of neuro-electrophysiological indicators between the two groups. Results:The EEG background activity of 17 PBSH patients was mainly α-mode, α-θ mode and θ mode. Four patients with α-mode, 3 of whom regained consciousness (all with EEG-R). There were 3 patients with α-θ pattern. And 5 patients with θ pattern, 2 of whom died. Five patients with background EEG activity of delta pattern had poor prognosis, of which 4 patients died and 1 patient survived but did not regain consciousness 6 months after onset. SLSEP component N20 were absent bilaterally in 12 cases and BAEP in 5 cases. FzN1A and CzN1A were not extracted in 4 cases, and FzMMNA and CzMMNA were not extracted in 6 cases. The study showed that BAEP, EEG background activity, EEG-R, FzN1A, CzN1A, FzMMNA and CzMMNA were different between the two groups (all P<0.05), while there was no difference between N20 and EEG sleep structure (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The neuro-electrophysiological indicators including BAEP, EEG background activity, EEG-R, FzN1A, CzN1A, FzMMNA, and CzMMNA may be related to whether PBSH patients can regain consciousness 6 months after onset, and it is best to combine multiple indicators for comprehensive analysis in clinical practice.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mild hypothermia for patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods:PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China Biology Medicine Disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, and VIP Database were searched for prospective randomized controlled researches on mild hypothermia and normothermia for patients with sTBI. The search time was from the establishment of the databases to February 2023. RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis. The evaluation indicators included literature search results, basic characteristics and quality of the literature, poor prognosis rate and mortality at 6 and 12 months after treatment, incidence of pulmonary infection, arrhythmia, thrombocytopenia, intracranial infection, renal insufficiency, gastrointestinal ulcer/bleeding and electrolyte disorder during the treatment, and publication bias.Results:A total of 16 papers involving 2 640 patients were included, comprising 1 381 patients in the mild hypothermia group and 1 259 patients in the normothermia group. The poor prognosis rate in the mild hypothermia group was significantly lower than that in the normothermia group at 6 and 12 months after treatment ( RR=0.81, 95% CI 0.69, 0.95, P<0.01; RR=0.65, 95% CI 0.51, 0.84, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the mortality between the two groups at 6 and 12 months after treatment ( RR=0.81, 95% CI 0.61, 1.08, P>0.05; RR=0.69, 95% CI 0.47, 1.03, P>0.05). In contrast with the the normothermia group, in the mild hypothermia group the incidence of pulmonary infection was significantly different ( RR=1.18, 95% CI 1.04, 1.34, P<0.01); the incidence of arrhythmia was not significantly different ( RR=1.35, 95% CI 0.73, 2.49, P>0.05); the incidence of thrombocytopenia was significantly different ( RR=1.78, 95% CI 1.34, 2.37, P<0.01); the incidence of intracranial infection was not significantly different ( RR=1.32, 95% CI 0.54, 3.23, P>0.05); the incidence of renal insufficiency was not significantly different ( RR=1.22, 95% CI 0.71, 2.09, P>0.05); the incidence of gastrointestinal ulcer/bleeding was not significantly different ( RR=0.98, 95% CI 0.73, 1.31, P>0.05); the incidence of electrolyte disorders was not significantly different ( RR=1.39, 95% CI 1.00, 1.94, P>0.05). The funnel plot was approximately symmetrical and the scattered points were concentrated in the narrow area in the upper part of the funnel plot, suggesting no publication bias. Conclusions:In comparison with normothermia for sTBI, mild hypothermia can not reduce the mortality at 6 and 12 months after treatment, but it can reduce the incidence of poor prognosis at 6 and 12 months after treatment. Moreover, mild hypothermia has no obvious effect on the incidence of arrhythmia, intracranial infection, renal insufficiency, gastrointestinal ulcer/bleeding, and electrolyte disorder, but it can increase the incidence of pulmonary infection and thrombocytopenia.

Objective To evaluate the effect of prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude.Methods By convenience sampling method,80 children with severe pneumonia hospitalized in intensive care department of a tertiary A children's hospital in Xining,Qinghai Province from June 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects,and the regional randomization group method was used to divide into a test group and a control group with 40 cases in each group.On the basis of routine care,the test group received prone ventilation once a day for 6 to 12 h;the control group received supine ventilation.Respiratory mechanical parameters(oxygenation index,oxygen saturation,arterial oxygen partial pressure,arterial CO2 partial pressure),mechanical ventilation duration and safety parameters(incidence of unplanned extubation,stress injury)at 6 h and 12 h of mechanical ventilation were compared.Results There were no shedding cases.The interaction between oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure(P＜0.05)in the 2 groups was compared(P＞0.05).The results of simple effect analysis showed that at 6 h,the oxygen saturation and oxygenation index in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).At 12 h of mechanical ventilation,the oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The time of mechanical ventilation in the test group was102.00(60.00,153.00)h and 126.00(108.00,156.00)h in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.013).The incidence of unplanned extubation and pressure injury were compared,and the differences in 2 groups were not significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude is safe and feasible,which is helpful to improve the respiratory function and shorten the time of mechanical ventilation.
