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 evaluate the safety and efficacy of the TiRobot assisted screw placement in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases.Methods:The clinical data of 165 patients with lumbar degenerative diseases from January 2020 to December 2022 in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyze, and all patients were treated with posterior lumbar decompression and instrumentation. Among them, 46 patients were used the TiRobot assisted screw placement during surgery (robotic-assisted group), and 119 patients underwent freehand screw placement by C-arm X-ray machine fluoroscopy (freehand group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, complication and skelalgia visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) before and after operation were recorded. The accuracy of screw placement and rate of proximal facet joint violation were compared between two groups.Results:There were no statistical difference in operation time, intraoperative blood loss and incidence of complication between two groups ( P>0.05). In the two groups, the 3 d VAS and ODI after operation were significantly lower than those before operation, robot-assisted group: (3.33 ± 1.40) scores vs. (6.54 ± 2.00) scores and (16.96 ± 8.03) scores vs. (43.09 ± 5.48) scores; freehand group: (3.56 ± 1.29) scores vs. (6.55 ± 1.65) scores and (18.89 ± 6.74) scores vs. (44.91 ± 4.96) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical difference in VAS and ODI before operation and 3 d after operation between two groups ( P>0.05). A total of 234 screws were implanted in robot-assisted group, and 590 screws were implanted in freehand group. The accuracy of screw placement in robot-assisted group was significantly higher than that in freehand group: 80.77% (189/234) vs. 74.58% (440/590), the rate of proximal facet joint violation was significantly lower than that in freehand group: 2.56% (6/234) vs. 7.29% (43/590), and there were statistical differences ( χ2 = 3.56 and 6.68, P<0.05). Conclusions:The TiRobot assisted screw placement for lumbar degenerative diseases is safe and effective. Compared to freehand technique, the TiRobot assisted method demonstrates higher screw placement accuracy and a lower rate of proximal facet joint violation.

There is significant inter-individual variation of pharmacokinetics and pharmacody-namics in patients receiving tacrolimus(TAC)for an-ti-rejection therapy,which cause the rejection or toxic action.Based on results of therapeutic drug monitoring and pathophysiological index of trans-plant patients,the individualized dosing regimen can be designed and adjusted by using model in-formed precision dosing(MIPD).The patients'clini-cal outcome can be improved.In the consensus,the different methods of MIPD used for patients re-ceived TAC for anti-rejection therapy were intro-duced,which can be used for the designing and ad-justing doing regimen,predicting adverse drug reac-tion,improving medication adherence and econom-ics during therapy.

Objective:To analyze the learning curve of TiRobot-assisted lumbar pedicle screw fixation (LPSF) by cumulative sum (CUSUM) test method.Methods:The clinical data of 50 patients who underwent TiRobot-assisted LPSF from January 2020 to December 2022 in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. CUSUM analysis and learning curve fitting were performed with robot usage time as the main indicator with the time for each step refined (robot registration time, path planning time and guide wire placement time), to select the best learning curve fitting model with the R2 value closest to 1. Using the turning point of the learning curve as the boundary, the learning curve was divided into two stages as learning stage and maturity stage, and then the observation indexes were compared between the two stages. Results:All 50 patients successfully completed the surgery without perioperative complications, with a total of 244 pedicle screws implanted. The total robot usage time and robot registration time showed a gradually decreasing trend with the increase of case number, and the learning curves were successfully fitted and reached their peaks at the seventeenth and thirteenth cases respectively. The entire learning process was divided into learning stage (17 cases) and maturity stage (33 cases) based on the turning point of the learning curve of total robot usage time. The path planning time and guide wire placement time did not show significant changes with the increase in the case number. The total robot usage time, robot registration time and the intraoperative blood loss in the learning stage were significantly higher than those in the maturity stage: (35.35 ± 1.58) min vs. (30.61 ± 0.43) min, (20.83 ± 1.56) min vs. (14.94 ± 0.29) min and 400 (150, 500) ml vs. 200 (110, 300) ml, the guide wire placement time of per screw was significantly lower than that in the maturity stage: 2.00 (1.83, 2.34) min/screw vs. 2.33 (2.13, 2.69) min/screw, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). There were no statistical difference in the path planning time, path planning time of per screw, guide wire placement time and the accuracy of screw placement between two stages ( P>0.05). Conclusions:TiRobot-assisted LPSF is a new technology with safety and effectiveness, and it has a relatively short learning curve. To achieve technological maturity, at least 17 surgeries are required with accumulated experience, and the robot registration is the main step of the learning process. After reaching maturity stage, the robot usage time is significantly shortened and intraoperative trauma is significantly reduced while the relatively high screw placement accuracy is ensured.

Recent studies have revealed a significant association between Porphyromonas gingivalis(P.gingivalis)infection and poor prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Although cer-tain circular RNAs(circRNA)have been shown to suppress ESCC tumorigenesis and progression,their regulatory mechanisms in P.gingivalis infection-associated ESCC remain elusive.In this study,RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated that P.gingivalis infection downregulated hsa_circ_0057552 expression in ESCC cells and tissues in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Actinomycin D assays further confirmed that P.gingivalis infection reduced the RNA stability of hsa_circ_0057552 in ESCC cells(P＜0.05).Functional assays in vitro and a subcutaneous tumor xenograft model in vivo revealed that hsa_circ_0057552 overexpression significantly inhibited ESCC cell proliferation,migration,invasion,and tumor growth(P＜0.05).Additionally,PCR array screening combined with RT-qPCR and Western blotting in-dicated that P.gingivalis infection markedly upregulated human antigen R(HuR)expression at both RNA and protein levels(P＜0.05).Mechanistic investigations demonstrated that HuR knockdown signifi-cantly increased hsa_circ_0057552 expression(P＜0.01),whereas hsa_circ_0057552 overexpression had no regulatory effect on HuR.Finally,si-HuR treatment reversed the inhibitory effect of P.gingivalis on hsa_circ_0057552 transcription.This study demonstrated that P.gingivalis may promote the progression of ESCC through a novel mechanism involving the regulation of HuR/hsa_circ_0057552,thereby identif-ying a novel therapeutic target and molecular marker for P.gingivalis-associated ESCC.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for brain abscess.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 53 patients with brain abscess admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to December 2024.Among them,29 cases underwent craniotomy for abscess resection(craniotomy group),while 24 cases received neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage(robot-assisted group).The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,decompressive craniectomy rate,proportion of postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment,postoperative hospital stay,incidence of postoperative complications,mortality rate and Glasgow outcome scale(GOS)scores 6 months after surgery of patients were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the craniotomy group,the robot-assisted group demonstrated significantly shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and lower incidence of postoperative complication,the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05).However,there were no statistically significant differences in terms of decompressive craniectomy rate,postoperative hospital stay,mortality rate,GOS score,or proportion of the postoperative antibiotic regimen adjustment between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion As a precise and minimally invasive surgical method,neurosurgical robot-assisted stereotactic puncture and drainage for patients with brain abscess can effectively improve the operational efficiency,shorten the operation time,reduce intraoperative injury,and lower the risk of postoperative complications.It has high clinical application value and potential for widespread adoption.

AIM:To investigate the impact of Kir2.1 channels on abnormal spontaneous pacemaker activities induced by hypokalemia and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.METHODS:Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes(hiPSC-CMs)were transfected with lentiviral particles containing sequences for human Kir2.1,the Kir2.1-E224G mutant,or Kir4.1.Patch clamp techniques were employed to examine the effects of low extracellular potassium concentration([K+]e)of 1 mmol/L on the resting membrane potentials and whole-cell currents of the cells in each group,assessed via both current and voltage clamp modes.RESULTS:Under conditions of 1 mmol/L[K+]e,cur-rent clamp data revealed that hiPSC-CMs overexpressing Kir2.1 channels exhibited both hyperpolarized and depolarized resting membrane potentials,with the depolarized state triggering abnormal pacemaker activities.In contrast,cells overex-pressing the Kir2.1-E224G mutant or Kir4.1 channels displayed only hyperpolarized resting membrane potentials.Voltage clamp analysis indicated that hiPSC-CMs overexpressing Kir2.1 channels produced"N"-shaped whole-cell currents,whereas cells expressing the Kir2.1-E224G mutant or Kir4.1 exhibited typical K+currents.CONCLUSION:Kir2.1 channels play a crucial role in mediating hypokalemia-induced abnormal spontaneous pacemaker activities in human car-diomyocytes through their inward rectification properties.
