A 53-year-old female patient was diagnosed as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in March 2015. The patient was treated with oral glucocorticoid (methylprednisolone 6-20 mg/d for 4.5 years and prednisone 5-20 mg/d over 2 years) for 6.5 years. And patient’s condition was not well controlled. In June 2019, itraconazole was taken for more than one month, and it was discontinued due to adverse reactions such as edema of ankle, face, shoulder and skin pigmentation. The patient suffered from acute ABPA exacerbation repeatedly and disease progression. The levels of serum total immunoglobulin E (TIgE) and Aspergillus fumigatus specific immunoglobulin E (Af-sIgE) were higher. The biological agents were used after full evaluation and informed consent. Omalizumab was given off-label use (600 mg, q4w) in September 2021. After treatment, the patient gradually improved, the acute exacerbation was reduced, the condition was evaluated to be stable, and the dose of prednisone was gradually reduced to 5 mg/d.

This paper systematically reviews the current status of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori （Hp） infection， as well as recent progress in clinical and basic research both in China and internationally. It summarizes the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in Hp infection management， including improving Hp eradication rates， enhancing antibiotic sensitivity， reducing antimicrobial resistance， decreasing drug-related adverse effects， and ameliorating gastric mucosal lesions. These advantages are particularly evident in patients who are intolerant to bismuth-containing regimens， those with refractory Hp infection， and individuals with precancerous gastric lesions. An integrated， whole-process management approach and individualized， staged comprehensive treatment strategies combining TCM and western medicine are proposed for Hp infection. Future prevention and control of Hp infection should adopt an integrative Chinese-western medical strategy， emphasizing prevention， strengthening primary care， implementing proactive long-term monitoring， optimizing screening strategies， and advancing the development of novel technologies and mechanistic studies of Chinese herbal interventions. These efforts aim to provide a theoretical basis and practical pathways for the establishment and improvement of Hp infection prevention and control systems.

A 52-year-old female patient was diagnosed with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), asthma and allergic rhinitis and was treated with mepolizumab (100 mg, once every 4 weeks). Three days after the second administration, the patient developed dark yellow urine, and abnormal liver function indicators were found on day 6 after administration. Laboratory tests showed total bilirubin (TBIL) of 22 μmol/L, direct bilirubin (DBIL) of 14.9 μmol/L, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) of 461 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) of 129 U/L, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) of 296 U/L. After a comprehensive assessment, it was considered that mepolizumab may caused liver injury in the patient. Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate, glutathione, and ursodeoxycholic acid were used for liver protection. Five days later, the urine color became lighter and liver function indicators improved (TBIL 17.4 μmol/L, DBIL 9.8 μmol/L, ALT 214 U/L, AST 85 U/L, ALP 226 U/L). After about 2 weeks of continued liver protection treatment, liver function returned to normal. Mepolizumab treatment was suspended and during the follow-up for about half a year, the patient did not experience liver function abnormalities or other discomforts again.

The writing of pharmacist-managed clinics documents （hereinafter referred to as “outpatient medication record”） is a necessary part of pharmacist-managed clinics service. Outpatient medication record is an important carrier to reflect the quality of pharmacist-managed clinics service. The Chinese Hospital Association Pharmaceutical Specialized Committee was entrusted by the Pharmaceutical Administration Department of the National Health Commission to lead the formulation of the Guidelines for the Pharmacist-managed Clinics Service and Document Writing and Usage （Reference） （hereinafter referred to as Guidelines） according to the compilation method of group standards and the technical route of “documentation combing→framework establishment→draft writing→opinion collection→Guidelines formation”. The Guidelines standardizes the basic requirements of pharmacist-managed clinics record management and the basic content of record， and provides a general template and two specialized templates including pregnant and lactating pharmacist-managed clinics record template and cough and asthma pharmacist-managed clinics record template， which provides a reference for medical institutions to write pharmacist-managed clinics record. This paper introduces the formulation process of Guidelines and analyzes the key contents of Guidelines， which is helpful for the application practice of Guidelines and further improves the quality of pharmacist-managed clinics work.

Expert group discussions were held to determine review indicators. A baseline survey was conducted among 100 MHD patients and 42 nurses using covenience sompling at the Blood Purification Center of Wuxi People's Hospital from January to December 2023, to identify barriers and facilitators. In the following year, from January to December 2024, the evidence-based practice was implemented at the same hospital, and the AVF surgical intervention rate and AVF self-management levels of MHD patients were compared before and after the practice.Results:No statistically significant difference was found in the AVF surgery rates before and after the evidence-based practice ( P>0.05) . However, after implementing the evidence-based practice, MHD patients' scores on the AVF self-management scale significantly improved, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The evidence-based practice based on the Stetler model is beneficial for standardizing the clinical management of AVF, reducing the need for surgical interventions, and improving MHD patients' ability to self-manage their AVF.

This paper reports a case of recurrent peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis caused by Salmonella, as identified through metagenomic next-generation sequencing. This patient was treated regularly with peritoneal dialysis due to stage 5 chronic kidney disease. One month ago, she was hospitalized for peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis. The result of bacterial culture of the dialysate was Salmonella, and she was discharged after anti-infective treatment for 3 weeks. However, on the 12th day after discharge, the patient was readmitted to the hospital due to peritonitis.Both metagenomic next-generation sequencing and bacterial culture of the fluid confirmed the presence of Salmonella. After 3 weeks of intraperitoneal and intravenous anti-infection treatment, the patient underwent metagenomic next-generation sequencing to assess pathogen eradication before discharge.

Objective:To explore the barriers of online consulting services by dental specialist nurses, so as to provide theoretical basis for constructing an online service model of dental specialist nurses.Methods:This study was a qualitative study. Based on the theoretical domains framework (TDF), an interview outline was developed. From January to February 2023, purposive sampling was used to select 12 nurses from Shanghai Stomatological Hospital who participated in online consulting services for dental specialist nursing as the research subject, and semi-structured interviews were conducted on the nurses. According to the relevant fields of TDF, the transcribed data was sorted and the interview data was analyzed using the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:A total of three themes and eight sub-themes were extracted, including ability barriers (low level of dental knowledge, lack of written communication skills), environmental barriers (insufficient special publicity and promotion, inadequate standardized service standards and processes, limited online consulting platform functions, distributed appointment resources), and goal barriers (low sense of professional value, incomplete performance evaluation system) .Conclusions:The relevant management departments of hospitals should standardize the management system of online consulting services by dental specialist nurses and optimize the process of online consulting services by dental specialist nurses. At the same time, dental specialist nurses should enhance their abilities, provide high-quality online consulting services for patients, and improve patients ' satisfaction with online consulting.

OBJECTIVE To construct a predictive model of ultrasound(US),analyze and compare with its diagnostic efficacy in different forms of combination with CT of the neck in predicting central district lymph node metastasis(CLNM)of papillary thyroid carcinoma.METHODS Lesions confirmed as PTC by surgical pathology in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2021 were included for study,The lesions were scored according to the American college of radiology thyroid imaging reporting and data system(ACR TI-RADS),the risk model to predict CLNM was constructed based on the training set and verified internally in the testing set.The model was combined with CT to diagnose CLNM using both serial and parallel modes.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves of CT,model,and model combined with CT for the diagnosis of CLNM was drawn separately,and then calculated and compared the area under the curve(AUC).RESULTS A total of 470 lesions were included in 440 patients.The model can be presented as Y=-4.664+0.171 ×maximum diameter+0.685×gender+0.600×multifoca lity+0.251×ACR TI-RADS score.After ROC curves analysis,the optimal diagnostic cut-off value of the model was 0.407.When Y≥ 0.407(optimal diagnostic cut-off point),CLNM was considered to be positive.In the training set,the C-index of model was 0.780(95％CI:0.661-0.756).In the testing set,the C-index was 0.778(95％CI:0.682-0.874).The Homsmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed that the calibration of the model was good(P=0.294,P=0.879).In the testing set,compared with CT,model and the serial mode,the sensitivity(77.5％),diagnostic coincidence rate(80.6％),and negative predictive value(84.6％)of parallel mode were higher,whereas specificity(83.0％)was relatively lower.On diagnostic CLNM,the parallel mode had a higher AUC than the series mode(0.803 vs.0.669,Z=-2.931,P=0.003).CONCLUSION The model combined with CT in parallel mode can improve the clinical accuracy of diagnosis in CLNM and compensate for the shortcomings of traditional imaging techniques such as US and CT,which has specific clinical applicability.
