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 whether there is a difference between the lesion volumes detected by 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging and 11C-choline PET/CT imaging based on different threshold delineation methods in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and to recommend a more clinically appropriate threshold method with reference to lesion volume detected by enhanced MRI. Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 37 patients(27 males, 10 females, age (51.2±11.9) years) with nasopharyngeal carcinoma diagnosed in Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, between October 2015 and May 2017. All patients underwent nasopharyngeal enhanced MRI, 18F-FDG PET/CT and 11C-choline PET/CT scans. Advantage Workstation 4.6 software was used to fuse images of the 3 imaging examinations. The lesion contour was sketched manually based on enhanced MRI sequences to obtain VMRI, and the lesion was sketched in PET images to obtain the corresponding metabolic tumor volume (MTV) by absolute threshold method, relative threshold method and background threshold method respectively. The correlation between ROIs sketched by different threshold methods and ROI in MRI was evaluated by using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC). Friedman test or repeated measures analysis of variance (corrected by Greenhouse-Geisser) was employed to analyze the differences of MTV or DSC obtained by using 3 threshold methods. Wilcoxon signed-rank test or paired t-test was used to compare the data of different imaging methods. Results:In 18F-FDG PET/CT results, MTVs obtained by using the absolute threshold method, relative threshold method, and background threshold method were 13.21(5.47, 23.16), 10.13(5.67, 16.81), and 13.68(5.77, 25.52)mm 3, respectively, with significant differences ( χ2=17.89, P<0.001). The corresponding DSC differences for the 3 methods were also significant (0.43±0.19, 0.38±0.17 and 0.44±0.17; F=16.35, P<0.001). In 11C-choline PET/CT results, MTV differences based on the 3 threshold methods were significantly different (14.96(6.80, 32.27), 16.28(12.23, 32.47) and 18.97(14.38, 37.02)mm 3;χ2=10.45, P=0.005), and the DSC differences were also significant (0.52±0.21, 0.58±0.13 and 0.62±0.13; F=16.37, P<0.001). The differences in MTV and DSC between FDG and choline groups were also significant ( Z=-3.87, t=-5.57, both P<0.001). The differences between MTVs of 18F-FDG imaging/ 11C-choline imaging and VMRI (24.35(14.48, 36.89)mm 3) were all significantly different ( Z values: from -5.03 to -2.59, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT, the preoperative 11C-choline PET/CT imaging in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma is closer to enhanced MRI (gold standard) in the lesion delineation. Compared with ROIs of the other 2 threshold delineation methods, the ROI obtained by the background threshold method is closer to that in enhanced MRI.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of 11C-methyl- L-methionine (MET) PET/MR in the differential diagnosis between neoplastic and non-neoplastic brain lesions. Methods:From July 2017 to May 2022, a total of 34 patients (19 males, 15 females, age 8-81 years) who received 11C-MET PET/MR imaging for suspected brain tumors in Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology were retrospectively enrolled. Postoperative pathological or clinical follow-up results were used as the gold standard. Diagnostic performance of 11C-MET PET/MR and contrast-enhanced MRI was evaluated by ROC curve analysis and Delong test, as well as the diagnostic performance of PET metabolic parameters (SUV and target to background ratio (TBR)), MRI multi-sequence parameters (cerebral blood flow (CBF), relative CBF (rCBF), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), relative ADC (rADC), choline/creatine (Cho/Cr) and choline/ N-acetylaspartate (Cho/NAA)) and their combination. Results:A total of 35 lesions of 34 patients were enrolled, including 12 (34.3%) non-neoplastic lesions and 23(65.7%) neoplastic lesions. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for 11C-MET PET/MR were 91.3%(21/23), 12/12, and 94.3%(33/35), in contrast to 16/18, 2/10, and 64.3%(18/28) for contrast-enhanced MRI. Maximum TBR (TBR max) showed the highest discriminative value (AUC=0.877, 95% CI: 0.692-1.000). The combination of TBR max, minimum ADC (ADC min), rCBF, and Cho/NAA could achieve a higher diagnostic performance (AUC=0.918, 95% CI: 0.816-1.000), although the difference was not statistically significant ( Z=-0.42, P=0.676). Conclusion:Multiple quantitative parameters of 11C-MET PET/MR are beneficial to distinguish neoplastic from non-neoplastic brain lesions, and their combination may improve the diagnostic confidence.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore whether hydrocortisone can improve the prognosis of patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (sCAP) by Meta-analysis.
METHODS:
Randomized controlled trial (RCT) on hydrocortisone in the treatment of sCAP were extracted from the database including PubMed, Cochrane library, Web of Science, and Embase, and the search time was up to April 29, 2023. The patients in the standard treatment group received standard treatment such as antibiotics and supportive care, while those in the hydrocortisone group received hydrocortisone treatment on the basis of standard treatment. Meta-analysis was used to compare the mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, mechanical ventilation rate and incidence of adverse reactions (hyperglycemia, gastrointestinal bleeding, secondary infection) between the two groups. The risk of literature bias was assessed. The studies that might have publication bias were corrected by the subtraction and complementation method. At the same time, trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted.
RESULTS:
A total of 5 RCTs involving 1 031 patients were finally enrolled, including 494 patients in the standard treatment group and 537 patients in the hydrocortisone group. Among the 5 studies, the research site of 2 studies was in the mixed ward. Considering the inclusion characteristics of the study population, there was doubt whether its research object was sCAP patients, which might have a certain impact on the results and introduce potential bias. Meta-analysis showed that the mortality in the hydrocortisone group was significantly lower than that in the standard treatment group [6.0% vs. 14.0%; odds ratio (OR) = 0.38, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.25-0.59, P < 0.01; I2 = 9%]. The studies that were asymmetric were corrected by the reduction and supplementation method. Even after filling the missing studies, hydrocortisone could still reduce the death risk of the patient (OR = 0.49, 95%CI was 0.32-0.73, P < 0.01; I2 = 31%). TSA showed that the average mortality of the standard treatment group was about 14.0%, and that of the hydrocortisone group was about 6.0%, with a relative risk reduction (RRR) = 57%. The calculated sample size was 699 cases, and the actual sample size was 1 031 cases. The actual sample size exceeded the required sample size, and the Z-curve crossed the O'Brien-Fleming boundary and the curve corresponding to P = 0.05, it meant that hydrocortisone could effectively reduce the mortality of sCAP. Compared with the standard treatment group, no statistical difference in the duration of mechanical ventilation was found in the hydrocortisone group [mean difference (MD) = -3.26, 95%CI was -6.72-0.21, P = 0.07; I2 = 0%], but the 8-day mechanical ventilation rate was significantly lowered (19.5% vs. 55.4%; OR = 0.24, 95%CI was 0.12-0.45, P < 0.01; I2 = 0%), and also no significantly difference was found in the incidence of hyperglycemia (54.3% vs. 44.6%, OR = 1.26, 95%CI was 0.56-2.84, P = 0.58; I2 = 61%), gastrointestinal bleeding (2.5% vs. 3.6%; OR = 0.70, 95%CI was 0.34-1.46, P = 0.34; I2 = 0%) and secondary infection (9.2% vs. 11.5%; OR = 0.46, 95%CI was 0.06-3.35, P = 0.45; I2 = 53%).
CONCLUSION
Hydrocortisone can reduce the mortality rate of sCAP patients, decrease their need for mechanical ventilation, and does not increase the risk of hyperglycemia, gastrointestinal bleeding, or secondary infections.

Objective :
To explore the changes in behavior and spatial memory of C57BL/6J female mice of different ages (youth , middle-aged , and elderly) .
Methods:
C57BL/6J female mice were divided into female youth group (YG group) , female middle-aged group ( MG group) and female elderly group ( OG group) according to age. The Morris water maze test measured spatial memory ability , and the open field and elevated cross maze test observed activity level and anxiety level. Western blot was used to determine the protein expressions of CREB , CaMKⅡ(pan) and CaMKⅡ(p) in the hippocampus of the brain tissues of female mice in each group.
Results:
Compared with the YG group , the weight of the MG group and the OG group significantly increased (P < 0. 01 , P < 0. 001) . Compared with the OG group , the third quadrant escape latency and the number of crossings in the YG group and MG group were shortened , and the difference was not statistically significant. Compared with the OG group , there was a statistically significant difference in the exercise speed in the open field of the YG group (P < 0. 01) , there was no significant difference in the movement speed in the open field of the MG group , the number of entries into the central zone significantly increased in the MG group ( P < 0. 05 ) , and there was no significant difference in the number of entries in the YG group (P > 0. 05) . Compared with the OG group , the YG group had a statistically significant difference in the elevated cross maze (P < 0. 05) , the MG group had no statistically signif- icant difference in the elevated cross maze , and the number of closed arm entries in the YG group and MG group significantly increased (P < 0. 001 , P < 0. 01) . Compared with the YG group , the relative expression level of CaMKⅡ(pan) in the OG group was statistically significant ( P < 0. 05 ) , while the relative expression level of CaMKⅡ(pan) in the MG group was not statistically significant ( P > 0. 05) .
Conclusion
With the increase of age , the weight of C57BL/6J female mice gradually increased , the activity level and desire to explore gradually de- creased , the spatial memory ability also declined , and the anxiety level and anxiety-like behavior increased. This study helps to reveal the effect of age on the activity level and cognitive function of females , and provides a refer- ence for studying cognitive and memory decline in older females.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes, as versatile biocatalysts with the broadest range of catalytic reactions in nature, play critical roles in the metabolism of medicinal plants. They are involved in various oxidative modification processes of active ingredients, facilitating both the synthesis and degradation of bioactive substances. This review delves into the classification, structure, and catalytic mechanisms of CYP450 enzymes, emphasizing their indispensable roles in plant biosynthesis. Using representative cases, including the biosynthetic pathways of tanshinones, artemisinin, celastrol, paclitaxel, and berberine, this review highlights the functional importance of specific CYP450s. For instance, CYP71AV1 catalyzes the production of artemisinin and artemisinic aldehyde, with its activity directly affecting artemisinin yield. Similarly, CYP76AH1 and CYP76AK1 play pivotal roles in the backbone construction and postmodification of tanshinones, acting as key players in their metabolic network. In the case of celastrol, CYP712K1, CYP712K2, and CYP712K3 initiate the first oxidative reaction, providing a solid foundation for subsequent biosynthetic processes. These examples highlight the pivotal role of CYP450 enzymes in the biosynthesis of medicinal plants, showcasing both their complexity and significance in plant metabolic pathways. Furthermore, this review examines the oxidative metabolism of CYP450 enzymes under aerobic conditions and their reductive metabolism in specific environments, offering deeper insights into their catalytic mechanisms. A comprehensive understanding of these processes lays the groundwork for the effective application of CYP450 enzymes in biotechnology and plant metabolic engineering.
