Objective To understand the current status of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) control in patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods Clinical data of patients who underwent isolated CABG in Beijing Anzhen Hospital in 2023 were collected. All patients returned to our hospital approximately one year after surgery (10-13 months) for a lipid level recheck. We analyzed their LDL-C attainment status and influencing factors. Patients were categorized into two groups based on whether their LDL-C met the target: a LDL-C attainment group and a LDL-C non-attainment group. Results This study included 1456 patients who underwent CABG, including 320 females and 1136 males, with an average age of (61.41±9.12) years. One year post-surgery, 234 patients achieved the LDL-C target, with an attainment rate of 16.07%. The proportion of patients in the LDL-C attainment group who were ultra-high risk (77.35% vs. 92.06%, P＜0.001), female (16.24% vs. 23.08%, P=0.021), and those with comorbid hypertension (55.98% vs. 63.18%, P=0.038) was significantly lower than those in the LDL-C non-attainment group. Additionally, the baseline body mass index (BMI) [(25.37±3.24) kg/m2 vs. (26.03±3.56) kg/m2, P=0.017], total cholesterol levels [(3.30±0.84) mmol/L vs. (4.01±1.03) mmol/L, P＜0.001], LDL-C [(1.62±0.63) mmol/L vs. (2.25±0.85) mmol/L, P＜0.001], and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [(0.98±0.26) mmol/L vs. (1.02±0.24) mmol/L, P=0.049] upon admission in the attainment group were all lower than those in the non-attainment group. Moreover, the lipid-lowering drug usage rate in the attainment group (100.00% vs. 96.24%, P=0.003) and the proportion using two types of drugs together (25.21% vs. 10.72%, P＜0.001) were both higher than those in the non-attainment group, while the statin monotherapy rate was lower than that in the non-attainment group (74.79% vs. 85.19%, P＜0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that baseline BMI (OR=0.928, P=0.012) and baseline LDL-C levels (OR=0.207, P<0.001), patient cardiovascular risk stratification (OR=0.155, P<0.001) and lipid-lowering drug treatment regimen (OR=3.758, P<0.001) are significant factors affecting the LDL-C control status. Conclusion The LDL-C compliance rate of patients undergoing CABG is at a relatively low level 1 year after surgery. Patients with very high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, high baseline LDL-C levels, and overweight or obesity should be strengthened lipid management. For these patients, the intensity of lipid-lowering drug use or combination medication should be increased upon discharge.

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.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a common digestive disease characterized by recurrence and remission alternation，which seriously affects the life quality and physical and mental health of patients. The pathogenesis of UC is complex，and studies have shown that the occurrence and development of UC are closely related to the transduction of multiple signaling pathways. The current western medicine treatment has many problems，such as single action target，more adverse reactions，poor patient tolerance，and easy recurrence after stopping the medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantages such as multi-targets，multi-pathways， and fewer adverse reactions， elucidating that the action mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of UC is the focus of current research. Therefore， this paper conducted a systematic review on how traditional Chinese medicine exerts therapeutic effects by regulating the signaling pathways related to UC in recent years，and it was found that traditional Chinese medicine can regulate nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB），adenylate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR），Janus tyrosine protein kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT），phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K） /protein kinase B （Akt），NOD-like receptor thermoprotein structural domain-related protein 3 （NLRP3）/cysteine protease-1 （Caspase-1），nuclear respiratory factor 2 （Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， and several other pathways，thereby inhibiting oxidative stress and cellular pyroptosis，regulating the Tregs/Th17 cellular balance， promoting autophagic response and M2-type macrophage polarization，restoring the diversity and abundance of intestinal flora，promoting the repair of intestinal mucosal barrier function，and alleviating the inflammatory damage of UC colonic tissues. The holistic concept and evidence-based treatment of traditional Chinese medicine were combined with the modern molecular mechanism research of traditional Chinese medicine， and the traditional Chinese medicine combinations with different mechanisms， following regulation， were formulated into compound formulas or pairs of medicines according to the pattern of evidence. It is expected to achieve better therapeutic efficacy and to provide ideas and references for the modification of classic compound formulae of traditional Chinese medicine in UC treatment and clinical translation.

Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic relapsing inflammatory bowel disease， involves multifaceted pathological mechanisms such as intestinal barrier dysfunction， immune dysregulation， and oxidative stress. Current therapeutic strategies remain limited in efficacy and safety. In recent years， the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK） signaling pathway has emerged as a pivotal therapeutic target for UC due to its central role in energy metabolism， inflammatory regulation， and intestinal homeostasis. This article systematically reviewed the mechanisms by which traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） prevented and treated UC through the regulation of the AMPK signaling pathway， with a focus on elucidating AMPK's multidimensional regulatory network in inflammatory signaling crosstalk， alleviating oxidative stress， restoring intestinal immune balance， repairing the intestinal barrier， and modulating gut microbiota. Leveraging its unique advantages of multi-target engagement and low toxicity， TCM demonstrates promising potential in UC treatment and has become a focal area of research. By systematically summarizing and synthesizing the existing literature on TCM-mediated AMPK pathway modulation in UC， this review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for advancing mechanistic research and clinical interventions in UC.

Purpose: Rare diseases occur in <50 per 100000 people and require lifelong management. However, essential epidemiological data on such diseases are lacking, and a consecutive monitoring system across time and regions remains to be established. Standardized digital phenotypes are required to leverage an international data network for research on rare endocrine diseases. We developed digital phenotypes for rare endocrine diseases using the observational medical outcome partnership common data model. Materials and Methods: Digital phenotypes of three rare endocrine diseases (medullary thyroid cancer, hypoparathyroidism, pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma) were validated across three databases that use different vocabularies: Severance Hospital’s electronic health record from South Korea; IQVIA’s United Kingdom (UK) database for general practitioners; and IQVIA’s United States (US) hospital database for general hospitals. We estimated the performance of different digital phenotyping methods based on International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 in the UK and the US or systematized nomenclature of medicine clinical terms (SNOMED CT) in Korea. Results: The positive predictive value of digital phenotyping was higher using SNOMED CT-based phenotyping than ICD-10-based phenotyping for all three diseases in Korea (e.g., pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma: ICD-10, 58%–62%; SNOMED CT, 89%). Estimated incidence rates by digital phenotyping were as follows: medullary thyroid cancer, 0.34–2.07 (Korea), 0.13–0.30 (US); hypoparathyroidism, 0.40–1.20 (Korea), 0.59–1.01 (US), 0.00–1.78 (UK); and pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma, 0.95–1.67 (Korea), 0.35–0.77 (US), 0.00–0.49 (UK). Conclusion Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of developing digital phenotyping of rare endocrine diseases and highlight the importance of implementing SNOMED CT in routine clinical practice to provide granularity for research.

Objective:To investigate the sleep characteristics and executive function development in children aged 6-12 years with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD),and to examine the relationship between them.Methods:A total of 112 children diagnosed with ADHD according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ),and 45 age-and gender-matched typically developing children were recruited.Sleep characteristics were assessed with the Chinese version of Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire(CSHQ)and ActiGraph GT9X Link Three-axis acceleration body dynamometert.Core ADHD symptoms and multi-ple dimensions of executive function were evaluated withthe Swanson,Nolan,and Pelham scale,Fourth Edition(SNAP-Ⅳ)assessment scale,Stroop Color-Word Test(SCWT),Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test(ROCFT),and Trail Making Test(TMT).Results:Compared with controls,children with ADHD showed significantly higher total CSHQ scores,sleep resistance,sleep anxiety,and sleep maintenance time(P＜0.05),and had significantly lower sleep efficiencies measured by ActiGraph GT9X Link(P＜0.05).In the SCWT,children with ADHD re-quired more time in the word interference and color interference tests(P＜0.05).In the ROCFT,the scores of im-mediate details,delayed details,immediate structure,and delayed structure were lower in the children with ADHD(P＜0.05).In the TMT,the number of errors in the digit connection and the time and number of errors in the digit-letter connection were higher in the children with ADHD(P＜0.05).The total CSHQ scores of ADHD children were negatively correlated with the working memory scores and positively correlated with the core symptom scores.Conclusion:Children with ADHD exhibit notable sleep disturbance and underdeveloped executive func-tion.the sleep problems,as measured by CSHQ are associated significantly with deficits in executive function.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of serum microRNA(miR)-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p in patients with acute pancreatitis(AP)and their relationship with the severity of the disease.Methods A total of 102 AP patients treated in the hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the study group.According to the severity of the disease,the patients were divided into mild acute pancrea-titis(MAP)group and severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)group.A total of 102 healthy people who underwent physical examination in the same hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.Quantita-tive real-time PCR was used to detect the levels of miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p.The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and C-reactive protein(CRP)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation of serum miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p levels with acute physiology and chronic health evaluation(APACHE)Ⅱ score,Ranson score,and biochemical indicators TNF-α,IL-6,and CRP in AP patients.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of SAP.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of serum miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p for AP and SAP.Results The serum levels of miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p in the study group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The serum levels of miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p in the MAP group were higher than those in the SAP group(P<0.05).The APACHEⅡ score,Ranson score and the levels of TNF-α,IL-6 and CRP in the MAP group were significantly lower than those in the SAP group(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum levels of miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p in AP patients were negatively correlated with APACHEⅡ score and Ranson score(P<0.05).The serum levels of miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p in AP patients were negatively correlated with TNF-α,IL-6 and CRP(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum TNF-α,IL-6 and CRP were risk factors for SAP(P<0.05),and miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p were protective factors for SAP(P<0.05).ROC curve showed that the AUC of miR-365a-3p combined with miR-10a-5p in the diagnosis of AP was 0.832(95%CI 0.777-0.887),which was greater than the AUC of miR-365a-3p alone(0.742,95%CI 0.674-0.810,Z=2.539,P=0.011)and miR-10a-5p alone(0.676,95%CI 0.674-0.810,95%CI 0.602-0.750,Z=4.366,P<0.001).The AUC of the combined diagnosis of SAP was 0.859(95%CI 0.776-0.920),which was greater than the AUC of miR-365a-3p alone(0.733,95%CI 0.637-0.816,Z=2.078,P=0.038),miR-10a-5p alone(0.718,95%CI 0.620-0.803,Z=2.249,P=0.024).Conclusion The expression of serum miR-365a-3p and miR-10a-5p is related to the severity of AP,and the combination of the two is better than single diagnosis of SAP.

Objective:To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of dyskeratosis congenita (DC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical, laboratory, imaging, pathological, genetic, and treatment data of 6 DC patients diagnosed at the Children′s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2010 to June 2025.Results:Among the 6 DC patients, 1 case was of Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome, 4 were male, and 2 were female. The diagnosis age 0.9-6.1 years. All 6 cases presented with bone marrow failure; 5 cases had a classic triad of skin and mucous membrane (mucosal leukoplakia, abnormal skin pigmentation, nail dystrophy); 5 cases had growth retardation, among which 2 cases had intrauterine growth retardation. Two cases had diarrhea and 1 case had abnormal liver function; 1 case had stiff and deformed limbs, accompanied by limited mobility, and dry and obstructive balanitis; 1 case had recurrent eyelid inflammation, middle ear inflammation, and nasal inflammation. All 6 cases had decreased B cell numbers, and 4 cases also had decreased natural killer cell numbers. There were 3 cases of children with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, of which 1 case of CMV infection led to retinal frosted branch angiitis and subsequent intracranial CMV infection resulting in death, and 1 case had CMV enteritis and died of hemophagocytic syndrome. Among 4 cases of boys, 3 cases had DKC1 gene variations and 1 case had an unknown variation gene; 2 cases of girls had TINF2 gene variations. The TINF2 c.860T>A (p.L287Q) variation site was a new mutation. Among 6 patients with DC, 2 cases died, 3 cases survived and 1 case was lost to follow-up.Conclusions:The DKC1 and TINF2 genes are common pathogenic genes in patients with DC. Bone marrow failure is a clue for the early identification of DC. The triad of skin and mucous membrane is its typical clinical manifestation. Children with DC generally have reduced B cells and natural killer killer cells, and have a high risk of fatal CMV infection. The overall prognosis is poor.

Objective:To observe the changes of retinal and choroidal blood flow density and thickness in macula of different myopic dioptre eyes, and to analyze the correlation between retinal and choroidal blood flow density and axial length (AL).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From October 2022 to May 2023, 86 eyes of 56 myopic patients scheduled for refractive surgery in Department of Ophthalmology, PLA Central Theater CommandGeneral were included into the study. According to the equivalent spherical specular degree (SE), 19, 21, 27 and 19 eyes of low myopia group (group A), moderate myopia group (group B), high myopia group (group C) and super high myopia group (group D) were observed. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and AL measurement were performed in all patients. The diopter was expressed in SE. AL was measured by ultrasonic bio-meter. OCTA scanner was used to scan the macular region in the range of 3 mm × 3 mm. The software automatically divided the macular region into two concentric circles with the fovea as the center, which were 1 mm in diameter respectively, the paracentric fovea of 1-3 mm was divided into 5 regions: superior, nasal, inferior and temporal. The superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), choroidal capillary plexus (CC), choroidal blood flow density, retinal and choroidal thickness were measured. The correlation between AL and blood flow density and thickness was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:There was no significant difference in SCP blood density and DCP blood density in the fovea in groups A, B, C and D ( P>0.05) .There were significant differences in DCP flow density among superior, nasal, inferior and temporal areas ( P<0.05), the difference was significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the fovea area between the four groups ( P>0.05), but there was significant difference in the superior, nasal, inferior and temporal areas ( P<0.05). Different macular regions: there were statistically significant among group A, group B, and group C, group D ( P<0.05). Results of correlation analysis, AL was negatively correlated with DCP blood flow density ( r=-0.504, -0.500, -0.460, -0.465), retinal thickness ( r=-0.348, -0.338, -0.312, -0.230), macular subarea CC ( r=-0.633, -0.666, -0.667, -0.710, -6.82), choroidal layer ( r=-0.635, -0.687, -0.659, -0.703, -0.680) and choroidal thickness ( r=-0.665, -0.605, -0.656, -0.648,-0.643) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:AL is negatively correlated with DCP, CC, CDF, retinal and choroidal thickness in the eyes with myopia. SCP, DCP and retinal thickness in fovea did not change significantly, and temporal choroidal thickness changed earlier than other areas.

Objective:To digitally measure the three-dimensional (3D) size of primary tooth crowns and the dimensions of the dental arch in children with individual normal primary dentition, preliminarily obtaining baseline data on the 3D size of primary tooth crowns as well as the length and width of the dental arch, and their influence factors. This study aims to provide a data foundation for the design of reference models for primary dentition.Methods:From May to June 2021, 122 caries-free children aged 3.5-4.5 years with individual normal occlusion were selected from five kindergartens in Haidian District, Beijing. Impressions were taken and plaster models were cast. After preliminary screening, 67 eligible models were scanned to obtain digital dental models. Digital measurement software was used for landmark-based measurements. Parameters included 3D crown dimensions (mesiodistal diameter, buccolingual diameter, and occlusogingival height), dental arch dimensions (length and width at specific regions), and occlusal measurements (overjet and overbite at the primary central incisors, and Bolton index for anterior and full dentition). Gender differences in crown dimensions and bilateral symmetry of homologous teeth, as well as the correlations between arch dimensions and gender, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) were analyzed.Results:The homonymous teeth of 67 children exhibited strong bilateral symmetry in all 3D dimensions ( P>0.05). Gender differences were observed in the buccolingual dimension for all deciduous molars except for the right mandibular first deciduous molar ( P<0.05). For the occlusogingival dimension, gender differences were found in the right maxillary first and second deciduous molars, left maxillary first deciduous molar, and left mandibular first and second deciduous molars ( P<0.05). For the mesiodistal dimension, only the left mandibular second deciduous molar and right mandibular deciduous canine showed gender differences ( P<0.05). All significant differences above indicated larger dimensions in boys compared to girls. In both maxillary and mandibular arches, the lengths and widths at various locations were significantly larger in boys than in girls ( P<0.05). Univariate correlation analysis revealed that body weight was positively correlated with the width of the terminal plane in both the maxilla and mandible and the total length of the mandibular dental arch, while BMI was positively correlated with the width of the maxillary terminal plane and the widths at all measured sites in the mandible ( P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that, after controlling for relevant variables, BMI was a significant positive predictor for the lengths and widths at various sites of the dental arch ( P<0.05), and height was a positive predictor for dental arch length ( P<0.05), as well as body weight was a positive predictor for the width in the molar region ( P<0.05). Overjet at the primary central incisors was 2.28 (1.57, 2.66) mm, and overbite was 1.13 (0.75, 1.92) mm. The anterior Bolton index was 0.79±0.03, and the overall Bolton index was 0.94±0.03. Conclusions:Primary tooth crowns of individual normal occlusion children demonstrate strong bilateral symmetry in homologous teeth. Most primary molars exhibit gender differences in buccolingual and occlusogingival dimensions, with larger values in boys. Arch dimensions (length and width) are consistently larger in boys.
