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.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of psychological symptoms and the associated factors among students with close contact to tuberculosis in school settings,so as to provide evidence for school tuberculosis control and mental health interventions. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted in April 2023 from 4 schools in Hangzhou using a multistage cluster random sampling method. Students identified as close contacts of tuberculosis cases ( n =406) were assigned to the exposure group, while non close contact students ( n =426) were matched at a 1∶1 ratio within the same schools as the non exposure group. A questionnaire survey was employed to collect data on general demographic and family sociological information. Psychological symptoms were assessed using the Symptom Check List-90 (SCL-90). A global severity index (GSI) score ≥2.0 was defined as moderate to severe psychological symptoms (MSPS). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify associated factors. Results: The overall MSPS detection rate was 15.38%. The detection rate in the exposure group (20.69%) was significantly higher than the non exposure group (10.33%)( χ 2=17.14, P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that middle or lower family economic status ( OR =1.90, 95% CI =1.10-3.28) and poor interaction with others ( OR =2.95, 95% CI =1.79-4.88) were independent factors associated with MSPS among the exposure group (both P <0.05). Conclusions Students who are close contacts of school tuberculosis cases have a relatively high MSPS detection rate. Poor family economic status and poor interaction with social personnel are the main factors influencing MSPS. Schools should simultaneously strengthen psychological health support targeting factors in tuberculosis prevention and control.

Objective: To investigate the urban and rural differences in adverse outcomes of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis-diabetes mellitus comorbidity (PTB-DM), so as to provide insights into improving the prevention and treatment measures for PTB-DM. Methods: Patients with PTB-DM who were admitted and discharged from 14 designated tuberculosis hospitals in Hangzhou City from 2018 to 2022 were selected. Basic information, and history of diagnosis and treatment were collected through hospital information systems. The adverse outcomes of PTB were defined as endpoints, and the proportions of adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients with PTB-DM were analyzed. Factors affecting the adverse outcomes of PTB were identified using a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results: A total of 823 patients with PTB-DM were enrolled, including 354 (43.01%) urban and 469 (56.99%) rural patients. There were 112 (13.61%) patients with adverse outcomes of PTB. The proportions of adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients were 14.41% and 13.01%, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis identified first diagnosed in county-level hospitals or above (HR=2.107, 95%CI: 1.181-3.758) and drug resistance (HR=3.303, 95%CI: 1.653-6.600) as the risk factors for adverse outcomes of PTB in urban patients with PTB-DM, while the treatment/observed management throughout the process (HR=0.470, 95%CI: 0.274-0.803) and fixed-dose combinations throughout the process (HR=0.331, 95%CI: 0.151-0.729) as the protective factors for adverse outcomes in rural patients with PTB-DM. Conclusions There are differences in influencing factors for adverse outcomes of PTB in urban and rural patients with PTB-DM. The adverse outcomes of PTB are associated with first diagnosed hospitals and drug resistance in urban patients, and are associated with the treatment/observed management and fixed-dose combinations throughout the process in rural patients.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of auditory hypersensitivity in normal hearing population and build a risk nomogram model according to the results,so as to provide scientific basis for early identi-fication of high risk population and formulation of prevention strategy.Methods A total of 410 volunteers with nor-mal pure tone hearing were recruited from March to July 2024.The hyperacusis questionnaire(HQ)was used to as-sess the audiroty hypersensitivity of the subjects.The participants were divided into a training set(n=287)and a validation set(n=123)according to a ratio of 7∶3.Binary Logistic model was used to construct risk model and no-mogram.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,Hosmer-Lemeshow calibration curve,clinical decision curve(DCA)and clinical impact curve were used to verify the differentiation,accuracy and clinical applicability of the model,respectively.Results Among 410 participants,54(13.17％)had hyperacusis including 38(13.24％)in the training set amd 16(13.01)in the validation set.LASSO regression and Logistic regression analysis showed that tinnitus(OR=3.784,95％CI=1.627-8.804),HADS-A(OR=3.860,95％CI=1.503-9.913),HADS-D(OR=3.118,95％CI=1.249-7.785),migraine(OR=2.821,95％CI=1.147-6.937)and noise exposure histo-ry(OR=3.799,95％CI=1.715-8.416)were the influential factors for hyperacusis in participants with normal hearing.Conclusion The incidence of hyperacusis in normal hearing population is 13.17％.Tinnitus,HADS-A,HADS-D,migraine and noise exposure history are related to the occurrence of hyperacusis in normal hearing popula-tion.The risk prediction nomogram model based on the above factors has good differentiation and calibration degree.It can effectively predict the risk of hyperacusis in normal hearing people,and has certain clinical practicability.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical equivalence between a domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment and the originator product in the treatment of stable plaque psoriasis.Methods:A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, three-arm, parallel-group, active- and placebo-controlled study was conducted, and 449 patients aged 18 - 65 years with stable plaque psoriasis were enrolled from 25 hospitals (such as the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University). Eligible patients had a baseline physician's global assessment (PGA) score of ≥ 3 points, baseline body surface area (BSA) involvement of 5% - 30%, and a target lesion psoriasis area and severity index (TL-PASI) for plaque elevation of ≥ 3 points. Participants were randomly assigned in a 2:2:1 ratio to the test group ( n = 179), reference group ( n = 180), and placebo group ( n = 90), and applied the domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment, originator product, and ointment base respectively, once daily in the evening for 4 weeks. Efficacy and safety were assessed at weeks 1, 2, and 4. The primary efficacy endpoints were the treatment success rates and clinical success rates in each group at week 4. The per-protocol set (PPS) was used for the primary efficacy analysis, and the intention-to-treat (ITT) set for supplementary efficacy analysis. Equivalence between the test and reference preparations was tested using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel method adjusted for randomization strata. Superiority of the test and reference preparations over the placebo was also tested. Measurement data were compared among the 3 groups using analysis of variance or non-parametric tests, while treatment success rates, clinical success rates, and incidence rates of adverse reactions were compared using the chi-square test. Results:The ITT, PPS, and safety sets included 447, 420, and 448 patients, respectively. In the ITT set, patients were aged 43.6 ± 12.8 years, including 320 (71.6%) males and 127 (28.4%) females, and the disease duration was 11.21 ± 9.05 years; 316 (70.7%) had a PGA score of 3 points and 131 (29.3%) had a PGA score of 4 - 5 points. No significant differences in the baseline characteristics (including age, sex, disease duration and disease severity) were observed among the 3 groups (all P > 0.05). Based on the PPS analysis, the treatment success rates were 57.9% (99/171) in the test group, 50.3% (86/171) in the reference group, and 7.7% (6/78) in the placebo group, and the clinical success rates were 57.9% (99/171), 50.3% (86/171), and 10.3% (8/78), respectively; both the test and reference groups were superior to the placebo group in both treatment and clinical success rates (all P < 0.001) ; the rate differences for treatment success (90% confidence interval [ CI]: -1.3% - 16.4%) and clinical success (90% CI: -1.3% - 16.3%) between the test and reference groups were entirely within the pre-defined equivalence margin (-20% - 20%). Subgroup analyses by baseline PGA scores: for patients with a baseline PGA score of 3 points, the treatment success rates in the test, reference, and placebo groups were 60.8% (73/120), 52.1% (62/119), and 11.1% (6/54), respectively, and the corresponding clinical success rates were 61.7% (74/120), 53.8% (64/119), and 13% (7/54), respectively; the test and reference groups did not differ significantly in treatment or clinical success rates (both P > 0.05), but both showed higher success rates than the placebo group (all P < 0.001) ; the results of statistical comparisons among the 3 groups in patients with a baseline PGA score of 4 - 5 points were consistent with those observed in patients with a baseline PGA score of 3 points. The percentage reductions in PGA and TL-PASI scores from baseline to weeks 1, 2, and 4 showed significant differences among the 3 groups, which were significantly higher in the test and reference groups than in the placebo group (all P < 0.001), but did not differ between the test and reference groups (all P > 0.05). The primary adverse reactions were local skin reactions, such as pruritus, pain, and erythema. The incidence rates of adverse reactions were 8.9% (16/179) in the test group, 7.3% (13/179) in the reference group, and 7.8% (7/90) in the placebo group, with no significant difference among the 3 groups ( P > 0.05) . Conclusions:The domestic calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate ointment demonstrated clinical equivalence to the originator product in the treatment of stable plaque psoriasis, and the two agents exhibited comparable efficacy for patients with varying degrees of disease severity, and were comparable in the speed and degree of clinical improvement, with similar favorable safety profiles.

Objective To identify the hemodynamic characteristics of frontal polar cortex(FPC)in patients with chronic subjective tinnitus,and to study the short-term efficacy of multielement integration sound(MIS)treatment,and its effects on FPC oxyhemoglobin(HbO).Methods Fifty patients with chronic subjective tinnitus(tinnitus group)and 50 subjects without tinnitus matching their age,sex and education level(control group)were collected from June 2023 to Oc-tober 2023.The tinnitus group and control group received MIS treatment for 15 minutes,respectively.Tinnitus handicap inventory(THI)and visual analogue scale(VAS)scores were collected before and after treatment in tinnitus group.Func-tional near infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS)was used to measure the 8-minute average HbO concentration in the frontal cortex of both groups before and after treatment.The changes of HbO concentration before and after treatment were compared be-tween the two groups.The correlation between clinical features and HbO was analyzed.Results The VAS score of the tin-nitus group decreased after short-term MIS treatment.The HbO concentration of FPC in tinnitus group was higher than that in control group before treatment.The HbO concentration of FPC in tinnitus group was decreased by MIS short-term treatment.The difference of HbO concentration before and after treatment(ΔHbO)was positively correlated with the difference of VAS score before and after treatment(ΔVAS)in the tinnitus group.Conclusion The hemodynamics of the frontal polar cortex in chronic subjective tinnitus patients is different from that of in non-tinnitus control group.MIS can change the hemodynamics of the frontal polar cortex in chronic subjective tinnitus patients.The frontal polar cortex may be the site of MIS.
