OBJECTIVE To ensure the safety of patients’ drug use and control the risk of medical insurance expenditure by upgrading the pre-prescription review system to conduct pre-review on prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions， as well as to review the payment methods of drugs （including in-hospital and external drug dispensing）. METHODS The data interfaces of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions were integrated to achieve real-time rational drug use intervention. Additionally， an intelligent review project for payment method was added to precisely intervene in the medical insurance payment methods of drugs. The effect of the system upgrade was evaluated by comparing the qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions and the suspected amounts of drug violations from January to April 2025 （before the system upgrade） and May to August 2025 （after the system upgrade）. RESULTS After the upgrade of the pre-prescription review system， the qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions increased by 3.5% [95% confidence interval （CI）＝0.3%-6.7%， P ＝0.037 ] ； the suspected amounts of drug violations decreased to 52.9% of the pre-upgrade level （95%CI＝31.6%-88.5%， P ＝0.026）， and the average monthly sequential decrease was 29.5% （95%CI＝12.2%-43.4%， P ＝0.012）. Moreover， the addition of the intelligent review project for payment methods promoted the management of off-label drug use in our hospital. After the upgrade， a total of 79 filling valid applications for off-label drug use were received and archived. CONCLUSIONS The upgrade of the pre-prescription review system effectively improves the review qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions and the accuracy of medical insurance payment for drugs， and strengthens the supervision of off-label drug use， achieving dual guarantees of clinical rationality and medical insurance compliance.

As one of the common chronic bacterial infections, Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is a key pathogenic factor of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. In the formation of gastric ulcer, Hp virulence factors directly damage the gastric mucosal barrier, induce the local inflammation and immune response, interfere with the regulation of gastric acid secretion, and ultimately destroy the mucosal stability. In the occurrence of gastric cancer, Hp-driven chronic inflammation is the basis of inflammation-cancer transformation, and it induces the genomic instability and epigenetic changes by interfering with key signaling pathways in host cells, thereby promoting malignant transformation. This paper systematically reviews the related mechanisms of Hp-induced gastric ulcer and gastric cancer in recent years, holding great significance for the development of new intervention strategies and the precise prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE To develop a pharmacist-led intervention model for reducing drug-related medical insurance claim denial risks， so as to provide practical references for healthcare institutions in fulfilling their primary responsibility for medical insurance fund supervision. METHODS A risk matrix method was employed by the pharmacists to assess the risks associated with drug‑related medical insurance claim rejections in our hospital during 2024. Intervention measures were developed targeting high‑risk factors (including inappropriate indications for medical insurance coverage, exceeding the covered treatment course, and inappropriateness of gender and age) from three dimensions, namely organizational structure, technical prevention and control, and closed‑loop management. Changes in drug‑related claim rejection data were compared between 2024 (pre‑intervention) and 2025 (post‑intervention), and the interception effect of the pre‑prescription review system was evaluated after the intervention. RESULTS After the intervention, the total amount of drug‑related medical insurance claim rejections in our hospital was reduced by 57.24% compared with that before the intervention, and the number of rejected items decreased from 10 108 to 2 892. Specifically, the number of rejected items due to inappropriate indications, exceeded treatment course, inappropriate gender, and inappropriate age was reduced by 70.94%, 74.26%, 83.86%, and 96.70%, respectively. Throughout the year following the intervention, a total of 5.605 yuan million in outpatient prescription drug amounts and 4.683 million yuan in inpatient medication order amounts that did not meet the insurance‑limited payment requirements were intercepted by the pre‑prescription review system. The proportion of drug‑related claim rejection amount to the total medical service claim rejection amount of our hospital decreased to 19.7%. CONCLUSIONS The pharmacist-led multi-department collaborative， technical prevention and control， and dynamic optimization integrated full-process intervention model is highly operable and has significant practical effects. It has important promotion value in reducing drug-related medical insurance claim denial risks.

Objective:To examine the influence of physical function status on supportive care needs (SCNS) in patients with primary liver cancer (PLC) and to explore the mediating roles of perceived social support and anxiety-depression, with the aim of providing evidence for nursing interventions to improve patients' care experience.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select PLC inpatients admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University between December 2022 and February 2024. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the 34-item Supportive Care Needs Survey-Short Form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Karnofsky Performance Status Scale to conduct a cross-sectional survey. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine associations among SCNS, perceived social support, anxiety-depression, and physical function status. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the mediating effects of perceived social support and anxiety-depression on the relationship between physical function status and SCNS.Results:A total of 304 patients were enrolled, including 260 males and 44 females, 31 cases aged 18-40 years old, 160 cases aged 41 to 60 years old, and 113 cases over 60 years old. The mean total SCNS score was (98.32 ± 21.75) points, the mean anxiety-depression score was (23.31 ± 9.64) points, the mean perceived social support score was (56.62 ± 13.05) points, and the mean physical function status score was (66.28 ± 12.31) points. Pearson correlation analysis showed that physical function status was negatively correlated with SCNS and anxiety-depression ( r =-0.509, -0.447; both P<0.05) and positively correlated with perceived social support ( r =0.439, P<0.05). Physical function status had a direct effect of 60.74% on SCNS, with specific mediating effects of perceived social support and anxiety-depression accounting for 23.15% and 11.85%, respectively, and a chain mediating effect of 4.26%. Conclusions:Patients with PLC exhibited a moderately high level of supportive care needs. Physical function status not only exerted a direct negative effect on SCNS but also indirectly influenced SCNS through the chain mediation of perceived social support and anxiety-depression. Clinical medical staff should focus on enhancing patients' perception of social support and effectively alleviating anxiety and depressive symptoms, thereby reducing supportive care needs to some extent.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between transabdominal bowel ultrasongraphy (TBUS) parameters and disease activity of ulcerative colitis (UC).Methods:The results of TBUS, endoscopy and laboratory tests of 68 UC patients (108 examinations) who visited the Department of Gastroenterology of the Second Hospital (Eastern Campus) of Hebei Medical University From January 2022 to February 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to Mayo endoscopic score (MES), there were 10 cases of remission (MES=0) and 98 cases of active phase (MES>0); patients in active phase further classified into 16 cases of mild (MES=1), 19 cases of moderate (MES=2), and 63 cases of severe (MES=3). The TAUS parameters were compared between patients in remission and active phases. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the TBUS parameters including bowel wall thickness (BWT), Limberg score, wall layer stratification, fat wrapping and endoscopic activity score, laboratory inflammatory indicators. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was applied to evaluate the predictive efficacy of the TBUS parameters and laboratory inflammatory indicators in identifying remission under endoscopy. Independent sample t-test and Fisher′s exact probability method were used to compare the two groups. Results:The BWT of patients in remission was significantly thinner than that of patients in active phase ((2.99±0.41) mm vs. (5.66±1.57) mm, t=-5.34, P<0.001). The proportions of patients in remisson with Limberg score ≤2, normal wall layer stratification, and absence of fat wrapping were significantly higher than those of patients in active phase (10/10 vs. 34/98, 10/10 vs. 48/98, 10/10 vs. 41/98, Fisher′s exact test, P<0.001, =0.002, =0.001). BWT, Limberg score, wall layer stratification, and fat wrapping were positively correlated with MES ( r=0.676, 0.677, 0.441, and 0.493, all P<0.001). BWT and Limberg score were moderate positively correlated with C-hypersensitive reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and fecal calprotectin (BWT: r=0.561, 0.420 and 0.458, all P<0.001; Limberg score: r=0.576, 0.469 and 0.403, all P<0.001), and were negatively correlated with serum albumin and hemoglobin (BWT: r=-0.604 and -0.453, both P<0.001; Limberg score: r=-0.573 and -0.532, both P<0.001). The results of ROC analysis showed that BWT achieved the best predictive efficacy in identifying endoscopic remission, and the best cut-off value was 3.45 mm (area under the curve was 0.972, 95% confidence interval: 0.944 to 1.000, P<0.001), with a sensitivity of 93.9% and specificity of 100.0%. Conclusions:TBUS parameters can accurately reflect disease activity in UC. It is a powerful tool for UC monitoring. The BWT<3.45 mm is the best cut-off value in prediction of endoscopic remission.

Objective:To analyze the levels of serum thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and double-negative T lymphocytes (DNT) in children with bronchial asthma and their clinical significance.Methods:The clinical data of 147 children with bronchial asthma (study group) diagnosed and treated in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January to March 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical data of 120 children who underwent healthy physical examination in the hospital during the same period (control group) were selected. All subjects underwent serum TSLP and DNT detection. The study group was divided into controlled group (116 cases) and uncontrolled group (31 cases) according to the asthma control level. The levels of TSLP and DNT were compared between the two groups, and the factors affecting the asthma control level in children with bronchial asthma were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the value of TSLP and DNT in predicting the asthma control level in children.Results:The serum TSLP level in the study group was higher than that in the control group, and the DNT level was lower than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The TSLP level, the proportion of severe cases, and the proportion of cases with family history of asthma in the uncontrolled group were higher than those in the controlled group, while the DNT level, age, and forced expiratory volume in the first second/forced vital capacity (FEV 1/FVC) were lower than those in the controlled group (all P<0.05). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that TSLP level ( OR=3.656, 95% CI: 2.091-6.392) and disease severity ( OR=2.561, 95% CI: 1.230-5.330) were independent risk factors affecting asthma control level in children, while DNT level ( OR=0.233, 95% CI: 0.122-0.442) and FEV 1/FVC level ( OR=0.287, 95% CI: 0.127-0.647) were independent protective factors (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the sensitivities of TSLP, DNT, and their combination in predicting asthma control level were 74.20%, 71.00%, and 90.30% respectively; the specificities were 75.90%, 73.30%, and 91.40% respectively; the areas under the curve (AUC) were 0.821, 0.805, and 0.923 respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum TSLP level is abnormally increased and DNT level is abnormally decreased in children with bronchial asthma. TSLP is an independent risk factor affecting asthma control level in children, and DNT is an independent protective factor. Combined detection of TSLP and DNT can better predict the asthma control status of patients in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the hospitalization utilization of pneumoconiosis patients and its influencing factors in a northwestern city, and to provide theoretical basis for formulating service policies for pneumoconiosis patients.Methods:From March to October 2021. Existing living pneumoconiosis patients in kashgar were selected as the research objects. The "Survey Questionnaire on Medical Behaviors and Influencing Factors of Pneumoconiosis Patients" developed by the National Institute of Occupational Health and Poison Control of China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was used to collect pneumoconiosis patients infomations from March to October 2021. This study investigated the demographic characteristics of pneumoconiosis patients, the types and stages of pneumoconiosis, as well as hospitalization in the past year, reasons for hospitalization, treatment measures, reasons for discharge. Additionally, it examined factors influencing medical behaviors, including medical insurance reimbursement, work-related injury insurance, and compensation situations.Logistics regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of hospitalization utilization.Results:The average age of the pneumoconiosis patients was elder with the age of 64.8. 86.7% (156/178) of them were retired, 75.8% (135/178) of them relied primarily on pensions for their income. The main types of pneumoconiosis were silicosis and coal workers' pneumoconiosis with the proportion of 57.3% (102/178) and 24.2% (43/178). 67.4% of them were stage I. The hospitalization rate in the year prior to the survey was 37.1%. The factors that promoted hospitalization were pension as the main source of income, pneumoconiosis in stage II, silicosis as the pneumoconiosis type, suffering joint pain, with two OR more other lung diseases (tuberculosis, cor pulmonale, COPD, pulmonary infection, bulla or pneumothorax, lung cancer, or mesothelioma) ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The hospitalization rate of pneumoconiosis patients in the previous year was low. It is mainly influenced by the patient's economic income, the duration of pneumoconiosis, and the presence of comorbidities.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of the bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD) regimen combined with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and renal impairment, analyze treatment efficacy and renal responses stratified based on renal dysfunction severity, and explore the prognostic significance of early renal response and its affecting factors.Methods:This retrospective study, conducted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, categorized 316 patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) from August 2018 to October 2022 based on renal function for analysis of clinical characteristics, treatment response, and prognosis. Continuous variables were compared using t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests, categorical variables utilizing Chi-square tests, survival outcomes employing Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank tests, and renal response predictors with logistic regression.Results:Patients were stratified based on baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) : normal [≥90 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=160], mild [≥60 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1 to <90 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=55], moderate [≥30 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1 to <60 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=39], and severe impairment [<30 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1, n=62]. Moderate and severe renal impairment correlated with advanced International Staging System/Revised International Staging System classification, lower hemoglobin levels, frailty, and higher light-chain/IgD subtype prevalence ( P<0.05). Despite younger age ( P=0.001) and higher transplant rates ( P=0.041) in severe cases, overall response rates ( ORR: 93.7% ; ≥VGPR: 82.9% ) were comparable across groups ( P>0.05). Among 24 dialysis-dependent patients at diagnosis, 11 (45.8% ) achieved dialysis independence after induction [median: 3.0 (0.5–4.0) months], including 10 undergoing auto-HSCT. In 89 evaluable patients [baseline eGFR <50 ml·min -1· (1.73 m 2) -1], renal ORR (RORR) was 70.8% [rapid complete response: 31.5% ; rapid partial response: 11.2% ; rapid minimal response (RMR) : 28.1% ]. Renal response predicted better survival (overall survival: HR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.13–0.99, P=0.049). Moderate-to-severe renal impairment was associated with increased transplant-related adverse events and delayed engraftment ( P<0.05) ; however, auto-HSCT significantly improved outcomes after 33.5-month median follow-up (range: 2–65 months). Multivariate analysis identified 1q21+ ( OR=3.58, 95% CI: 1.17–11.02, P=0.026) and light-chain subtype ( OR=2.86, 95% CI: 1.08–7.69, P=0.036) as independent predictors of poor renal response. Conclusion:VRD regimen plus auto-HSCT demonstrates robust efficacy in NDMM, including patients with renal impairment, with a 70.8% RORR and manageable toxicity. Achieving ≥RMR correlates with superior prognosis, whereas 1q21+ and light-chain subtype independently predict inferior renal response.

Objective:To conduct a scoping review of studies on the application of exercise interventions in the rehabilitation of patients with hemophilic arthropathy (HA) .Methods:A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from the database inception to March 1, 2024. Relevant literature was screened, summarized, and analyzed.Results:A total of 31 studies were included. The study population mainly consisted of adult patients with moderate to severe hemophilia suffering from elbow, knee, and ankle arthropathy, who were in a stable bleeding phase without coagulation factor inhibitors. Exercise types included resistance training, aerobic exercise, balance/proprioceptive exercises, and flexibility training. The exercise intensity was predominantly low to moderate. The duration of each session was mostly 30-60 minutes, with a frequency of 2-5 times per week and a total intervention period of 4-12 weeks. Exercises were mostly conducted in medical institutions under face-to-face supervision. Exercise interventions led to varying degrees of improvement in mobility, balance/proprioceptive function, joint function, cardiopulmonary fitness, psychological well-being, and quality of life.Conclusions:Exercise interventions for patients with hemophilic arthropathy are diverse, demonstrating safety, feasibility, and efficacy. Future research should focus on a multidisciplinary, exercise-centered rehabilitation approach, standardizing evaluation criteria, and dynamically monitoring the rehabilitation process to develop standardized exercise rehabilitation protocols.
