OBJECTIVE To provide references for the accurate identification and management of immune-related cutaneous adverse events (irCAEs) caused by durvalumab, and ensuring safe clinical drug use. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with gallbladder cancer who developed irCAEs caused by durvalumab. The clinical pharmacists systematically reviewed the patient’s past medical history and medication history, and assisted physicians in assessing the association between adverse drug reactions and administered drugs. Meanwhile, the clinical pharmacists conducted a graded assessment of the adverse reaction, proposed recommendations such as discontinuing durvalumab and adjusting the administration regimen of glucocorticoids, assisted physicians in restarting immunotherapy, and carried out medication education and other pharmaceutical care. RESULTS The occurrence of irCAEs in this patient was “highly likely” related to durvalumab and was classified as severe. The physicians adopted the clinical pharmacist’s opinion, and after symptomatic treatment, the patient’s skin symptoms improved, and discharged with medication. After the completion of glucocorticoid therapy for the patient, the physician restarted immunotherapy with tislelizumab, and no related adverse reactions occurred again in the patient. CONCLUSIONS Durvalumab can cause irCAEs such as severe skin maculopapular rash. In clinical practice, it is crucial to promptly identify and discontinue suspicious drugs, immediately implement effective symptomatic treatment measures, and actively resume immunotherapy to ensure the continuity and safety of the patient’s treatment.

Objective:
To investigate the role of butyric acid-producing bacteria in long bone homeostasis in mice with periodontitis under a high-fat/high-sugar diet and to provide new insights for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis and related bone metabolic diseases.
Methods:
This study has been approved by the Animal Welfare and Ethics Committee of the Experimental Animal Center. Initially, 14 mice were randomly divided into the CON group (the control group) and the LIG group (the periodontitis group). Mice in the LIG group had experimental periodontitis induced by ligating the second maxillary molars bilaterally and were fed a high-fat and high-sugar diet. After 8 weeks, samples were collected. Micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) was used to analyze alveolar bone resorption and various parameters of the proximal tibia trabecular bone, including bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume per tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp). After decalcification, hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed on maxillary bone sections to assess periodontal tissue inflammation and connective tissue destruction. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect related genes in the distal femur and proximal tibia bone tissues, including osteocalcin (OCN), osteogenic transcription factor (Osterix), osteoprotegerin (OPG), tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR), receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B (RANK), and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANK-L). Subsequently, the other 28 mice were randomly divided into the CON group (the control group), LIG group (the periodontitis group), CON + butyric acid-producing bacteria (BP) group, and LIG + BP group. The breeding, sampling, and sample detection methods remained the same. Finally, the other 28 mice were randomly divided into the CON group (the control group), LIG group (the periodontitis group), CON + sodium butyrate (SB) group, and LIG + SB group. The breeding, sampling, and sample detection methods remained the same.
Results:
①Periodontitis modeling was successful. Compared with the CON group, the LIG group exhibited significant alveolar bone resorption of the maxillary second molar, aggravated periodontal tissue inflammation, and connective tissue destruction. ②Periodontitis exacerbated long bone resorption in mice fed a high-fat high-sugar diet. Compared with the CON group, the LIG group had significantly lower BMD, BV/TV, Tb.N, and Tb.Th (P<0.05), and significantly higher Tb.Sp (P<0.05). HE staining of the proximal tibia showed that the trabeculae in the LIG group were sparse and disordered, with some areas showing fractures or dissolution. The expression of osteoblast markers (OCN, Osterix, OPG) was significantly lower in the LIG group (P<0.05), while the expression of the osteoclast marker TRAP showed an increasing trend (P>0.05). The ratio of RANK-L/OPG was significantly higher in the LIG group compared with the CON group (P<0.05). ③ Supplementation with butyric acid-producing bacteria alleviates periodontitis-induced disruption of long bone homeostasis in mice fed a high-fat/high-sugar diet. Compared with the LIG group, BMD and Tb.Th were significantly higher in the LIG + BP group. HE staining of the proximal tibia showed that bone resorption was mitigated in the LIG + BP group compared with the LIG group. The expression of OCN and Osterix was significantly higher in the LIG + BP group, while the expression of osteoclast-specific genes (OSCAR, RANK, RANK-L) was significantly lower (P<0.05). ④ Supplementation with butyrate alleviates periodontitis-induced disruption of long bone homeostasis in mice fed a high-fat/high-sugar diet. Compared with the LIG group, BV/TV and Tb.N were significantly higher in the LIG + SB group, and Tb.Sp was significantly lower (P<0.05). HE staining of the proximal tibia showed that bone resorption was mitigated in the LIG + SB group compared with the LIG group. The expression of Osterix, OPG, OSCAR, TRAP, and RANK was significantly lower in the LIG + SB group compared with the LIG group (P<0.05).
Conclusion
Periodontitis disrupts the long bone homeostasis of mice fed a high-fat high-sugar diet, aggravating long bone resorption. Supplementation with butyric acid-producing bacteria or butyrate can effectively alleviate the disruption of long bone homeostasis caused by periodontitis.

Objective:To construct an indicator system for entrustable professional activities (EPAs) in the general practice enhancement stage of pediatric specialist physician training.Methods:A draft indicator system for EPAs in the general practice enhancement stage of pediatric physician training was developed through core EPAs working group discussion, literature review, nominal group discussion, and expert consultation. Subsequently, the indicator system was preliminarily implemented and revised.Results:The core EPAs working group consisted of nine specialist physician trainers. In the initial brainstorming stage, a "potential list" of 30 activities was established. After literature review and collation, the draft indicator system included eight EPAs. Through nominal group discussion, the connotation of the draft was enriched, and the importance of the EPAs was ranked and modified. Finally, through expert consultation, the EPAs for the general practice enhancement stage of pediatric specialist physician training were determined. These included basic operations for the treatment of critically ill children, identification and management of critical illnesses, referral of critically ill children, perioperative management, in-hospital consultation, medical and teaching management and system improvement, doctor-patient communication and dispute handling, and response to public health events. During the preliminary implementation stage, a total of nine specialist physicians who participated in the training were evaluated. Based on the problems found in the pre-evaluation, the indicators of EPAs were revised, and a corresponding curriculum training system was developed.Conclusions:Through multiple rounds of nominal group discussion and expert consultation, the indicator system for EPAs in the general practice enhancement stage of pediatric specialist physician training was formulated. The system was preliminarily implemented and revised, and a curriculum system was constructed.

Objective:To observe the changes in serum estradiol (E 2) levels in pregnant women of different gestational weeks and their predictive value for early intrauterine pregnancy outcomes. Methods:A retrospective study was conducted involving 375 pregnant women who were treated at the Affiliated Yangming Hospital of Ningbo University (Yuyao People's Hospital) from September 2021 to September 2023. The clinical data were categorized based on pregnancy outcomes into three groups: a normal pregnancy group ( n = 150), a threatened miscarriage with continued pregnancy group ( n = 150), and a miscarriage group ( n = 75). The serum estradiol (E 2) levels at different gestational weeks were compared among the three groups: 5 to < 6 weeks (35-41 days), 6 to < 7 weeks (42-48 days), and 7 to 8 weeks (49-55 days). The predictive value of serum E 2 levels for early intrauterine pregnancy outcomes across different gestational weeks was analyzed using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves. Results:In the normal pregnancy group, the serum E 2 levels at different gestational weeks were as follows: (1 691.87 ± 532.21) pmol/L for 5 to < 6 weeks, (2 376.64 ± 788.36) pmol/L for 6 to < 7 weeks, and (3 576.30 ± 1,190.06) pmol/L for 7 to 8 weeks. These values were significantly higher than those in the threatened miscarriage with continued pregnancy group [(1 409.28 ± 473.49) pmol/L, (1 893.13 ± 563.15) pmol/L, (2 035.79 ± 612.47) pmol/L, t = 5.15, 11.68, 6.60, all P < 0.05] and the miscarriage group [(906.49 ± 338.09) pmol/L, (923.63 ± 365.39) pmol/L, (950.27 ± 378.89) pmol/L, t = 16.19, 15.45, 21.50, all P < 0.05]. The serum E 2 levels at different gestational weeks in the threatened miscarriage with continued pregnancy group were significantly higher than those in the miscarriage group ( t = 7.48, 10.81, 8.89, all P < 0.05). Both the normal pregnancy group and the threatened miscarriage with continued pregnancy group showed an increasing trend in serum E 2 levels with advancing gestational weeks ( t = 6.74, 18.55, 7.58, 9.82, 11.81, 2.24, all P < 0.05). In contrast, the serum E 2 levels in the miscarriage group also increased with advancing gestational weeks, but the differences were not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). The results from the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the areas under the curve for predicting early intrauterine pregnancy outcomes based on serum E 2 levels at different gestational weeks were 0.857, 0.810, and 0.839, demonstrating excellent diagnostic efficacy. Conclusions:Dynamic monitoring of serum E 2 levels is beneficial for predicting early intrauterine pregnancy outcomes and providing guidance for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term protective efficacy of the recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cell-derived hepatitis B vaccine(CHO-HepB)26 years post-vaccination in the rural China.Methods:Zhengding county,Hebei province was designated as a rural monitoring site for CHO-HepB efficacy. Study participants included individuals born between 1997 and 1999 who had completed the three-dose CHO-HepB primary series without booster doses. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in late 2024 using random sampling. Demographic and vaccination history data were collected via questionnaires,and hepatitis B virus(HBV)serological markers were detected using chemiluminescence. Historical surveillance data were integrated to infer infection statuses of HBsAg-positive individuals and evaluate longitudinal trends in anti-HBs seropositivity and antibody titers.Results:Among 178 participants(mean time since vaccination:26.2 years),the seroprevalence rates were 0.6% for HBsAg(95% CI:0.0%-1.6%),64.6% for anti-HBs(95% CI:57.6%-71.6%),and 1.1% for anti-HBc(95% CI:0.0%-2.7%). Compared to the pre-vaccination baseline HBsAg positivity of 11.3% in children under 10 years of age,the estimated vaccine protection rate was 95%. Two notable cases were identified:one with concurrent HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity and one with anti-HBs and anti-HBc positivity,suggestive of transient HBV exposure(1999—2009)without chronicity. Natural immune boosting was inferred for the latter case based on anti-HBs titer dynamics. Longitudinal analysis of four prior cross-sectional surveys(2005,2009,2013,and 2017)revealed no significant upward trends in HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity(both P>0.05)over 26 years,while anti-HBs seropositivity declined significantly( P<0.05)from 6 to 26 years post-vaccination. Conclusion:The CHO-HepB vaccine demonstrates sustained immunological persistence and robust long-term protection up to 26 years post-immunization. Continued emphasis on rigorous implementation of mother-to-child transmission prevention strategies is critical for future hepatitis B control.
