OBJECTIVE To upgrade the drug traceability code management system for a pediatric hospital under the “payment by code” background, aiming to comprehensively enhance traceability integrity, efficiency, and compliance. METHODS Taking Xiamen Children’s Hospital as the implementation setting, a before-and-after control design was adopted to construct an intelligent drug traceability code management system through systematic upgrades involving the technology platform, core mechanisms, and coordination with medical insurance. Key interventions included: upgrading a traceability code management platform and designing a dynamic code pool; innovating differentiated traceability mechanisms for routine, split-dose, and special drugs; establishing a tiered early-warning and emergency response system; and constructing a data coordination and quality control system. The drug traceability code upload rate served as the primary outcome. Process indicators such as the root causes distribution of failed uploads and the duration of medication returns, and a comprehensive outcome (the number of insurance-flagged abnormal prescriptions) were also analyzed. The data between the baseline period (April 2025) and the observation period (June-August 2025) were compared and evaluated. RESULTS After the upgrade, the overall upload rate of drug traceability codes increased from 9.21% (baseline) to 99.86% (August 2025). The upload rate of traceability codes in previously unmanaged areas, such as the inpatient pharmacy and pharmacy intravenous admixture services, soared from 0 to nearly 100%. The proportion of non-uploads due to system issues fell from 66.44% (June 2025) to 2.62% (August Additionally, the number of insurance-flagged) abnormal prescriptions dropped sharply from 2 275.00 in the first “payment by code” policy month (July 2025) to 212.00 by the end of the observation period (August 2025), a 90.70% decrease. CONCLUSIONS The developed management system effectively addresses complex scenario challenges such as high-frequency drug splitting. It significantly enhances traceability code upload performance and ensures a high degree of compliance with medical insurance data requirements. These outcomes contribute to proactive risk mitigation against insurance claim denials and demonstrate a concurrent optimization of pharmacy operations.

OBJECTIVE To formulate the Expert Consensus on the Implementation and Management of Drug Selection for Centralized Volume-Based Procurement in Medical Institutions of Guangxi (hereinafter referred to as the “ Consensus ”), and to provide decision-making support and practical guidance for the drug selection and management of centralized volume-based procurement (hereinafter referred to as “centralized procurement”) drugs in medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi. METHODS A systematic review was conducted on the materials from previous batches of centralized procurement implemented in Guangxi. A comprehensive search was carried out for drug-related works and books, along with a systematic collation of guidelines on drug selection, expert consensus on centralized procurement, and policy documents. Through three rounds of specialized seminars, combined with existing evidence-based data and the practical drug selection experiences of medical institutions at various levels, this Consensus was formulated after thorough discussion and successive rounds of revision. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The Consensus systematically outlines the three key stages in the implementation of centralized procurement in medical institutions: procurement volume reporting, confirmation of agreed procurement volume, and procurement and usage implementation. It proposes drug selection strategies for centralized procurement bas ed on multiple dimensions, including specifications, dosage forms, packaging materials, fill volume, and manufacturing enterprises. In response to practical challenges encountered in the selection process, corresponding countermeasures are proposed, such as establishing a regularized information reserve mechanism, strengthening information technology support, and implementing categorized selection approaches. The Consensus advocates for medical institutions to construct an integrated “policy, data, and quality” decision-making system to promote full-cycle management of centralized procurement. This Consensus will provide scientific and practical guidance for medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi in the drug selection of centralized procurement, facilitating the smooth implementation and sustainable development of centralized procurement policies at the institutional level.

BackgroundPatients with bipolar disorder exhibit persistent cognitive impairment across multiple domains, including executive function, memory, and attention. Furthermore, those with mixed features tend to have a poorer prognosis. Currently, research evidence regarding the characteristics of cognitive function and event-related potential P300, as well as their correlation, in patients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features remains limited. ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between cognitive function and event-related potential P300 in patients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features, analyze the influencing factors of cognitive function, so as to provide references for the improvement of cognitive function in this subtype of patients. MethodsA total of 73 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive episodes of bipolar disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5) were enrolled from the outpatient and inpatient departments of Tianjin Anding Hospital from November 2021 to April 2024. The Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item(HAMD-17) was used to assess the severity of depressive symptoms, and the Clinically Useful Depression Outcome Scale Supplemented with Questions for the DSM-5 Mixed Features Specifier (CUDOS-M) was used to evaluate whether patients presented with mixed features. Based on the CUDOS-M total scores, patients were divided into two groups: the mixed features group (n=34) and the non-mixed features group (n=39). The MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) was used to assess cognitive function, and auditory event-related potential P300 testing was performed. Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlations between P300 indicators and MCCB scores. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to investigate the influencing factors of cognitive function. ResultsPatients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features had a longer total illness duration than those without mixed features, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.030, P<0.05). Analysis of covariance showed that the MCCB scores for processing speed, attention/vigilance, and reasoning and problem solving were all lower in the mixed features group than those in the non-mixed features group (F=3.650, 3.520, 4.213, P<0.01). However, no significant difference was found between the two groups in P300 latency or amplitude (P>0.05). Correlation analysis revealed that the MCCB attention/vigilance score was negatively correlated with P300 latency in patients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features (rs=-0.576, P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that, in the mixed features group, years of education positively predicted processing speed (β=0.378, P<0.05), while P300 latency (β=-0.699, P<0.01) and age (β=-0.424, P<0.01) negatively predicted attention/vigilance function. ConclusionPatients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features have a longer illness duration and more severe impairment in three cognitive domains: processing speed, attention/vigilance, and reasoning and problem solving. P300 latency may be an influencing factor of attention/vigilance function in patients with depressive episodes of bipolar disorder with mixed features [Funded by Tianjin Key Medical Discipline Construction Project (number, TJYXZDXK-3-015B); Hospital-level Scientific Research Project of Tianjin Anding Hospital (number, ADYKHT2021010)]

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of entecavir (ETV) versus tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) on renal function in previously untreated patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 167 previously untreated CHB patients who received ETV or TAF treatment for at least 48 weeks at the outpatient service of Department of Infectious Diseases in The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from September 2019 to November 2023, and according to the antiviral drug used, they were divided into ETV group with 117 patients and TAF group with 50 patients. In order to balance baseline clinical data, propensity score matching (PSM) was used for matching and analysis at a ratio of 2∶1, and the two groups were compared in terms of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the incidence rate of abnormal renal function at week 48. According to eGFR at week 48, the patients were divided into normal renal function group and abnormal renal function group. The independent-samples t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for abnormal renal function, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the performance of each indicator in predicting abnormal renal function. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function, and the log-rank test was used for comparison. The analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to compare the dynamic changes of eGFR during antiviral therapy in CHB patients. ResultsAfter PSM matching, there were 100 patients in the ETV group and 50 patients in the TAF group. There were no significant differences in baseline clinical data between the ETV group and the TAF group (all P>0.05), with an eGFR level of 112.29±9.92 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the ETV group and 114.72±12.15 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the TAF group. There was a reduction in eGFR from baseline to week 48 in both groups, and compared with the TAF group at week 48, the ETV group had a significantly lower eGFR (106.42±14.12 mL/min/1.73 m2 vs 112.25±13.44 mL/min/1.73 m2, t=-2.422, P=0.017) and a significantly higher incidence rate of abnormal renal function (17.00% vs 4.00%, χ2=5.092, P=0.024). After the patients were divided into normal renal function group with 131 patients and abnormal renal function group with 19 patients, the univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the two groups in age (Z=-2.039, P=0.041), treatment drug (ETV/TAF) (χ2=5.092, P=0.024), and baseline eGFR level (t=4.023, P<0.001), and the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that baseline eGFR (odds ratio [OR]=0.896, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.841 — 0.955, P<0.001) and treatment drug (OR=5.589, 95%CI: 1.136 — 27.492, P=0.034) were independent influencing factors for abnormal renal function. Baseline eGFR had an area under the ROC curve of 0.781 in predicting abnormal renal function in CHB patients, with a cut-off value of 105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2, a sensitivity of 73.68%, and a specificity of 82.44%. The Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the patients with baseline eGFR≤105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function than those with baseline eGFR>105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 (χ2=22.330, P<0.001), and the ETV group had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function than the TAF group (χ2=4.961, P=0.026). With the initiation of antiviral therapy, both the ETV group and the TAF group had a significant reduction in eGFR (F=5.259, P<0.001), but the ETV group only had a significant lower level of eGFR than the TAF group at week 48 (t=-2.422, P=0.017); both the baseline eGFR≤105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 group and the baseline eGFR>105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 group had a significant reduction in eGFR (F=5.712, P<0.001), and there was a significant difference in eGFR between the two groups at baseline and weeks 12, 24, 36, and 48 (t=-13.927, -9.780, -8.835, -9.489, and -8.953, all P<0.001). ConclusionFor CHB patients initially treated with ETV or TAF, ETV antiviral therapy has a higher risk of renal injury than TAF therapy at week 48.

Objective To investigate the association between nutritional status and serum hepcidin and pentraxin 3(PTX3)levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods A total of 76 patients with MHD who met the inclusion criteria were recruited from the hemodialysis center at the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical University.Nutritional status was assessed using the Subjective Global Assessment(SGA),which categorizes patients into three grades:SGA-A,SGA-B,and SGA-C.Serum levels of PTX3 and hepcidin were mea-sured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS software.One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA)was applied to compare differences across the three SGA groups.Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify influencing factors,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate diagnostic value.Among the participants,45 patients were classified as malnourished based on SGA-B and SGA-C scores,while those with SGA-A constituted the well-nourished control group.Results Among the 76 MHD patients,59.2%were malnourished.We then compared clinical characteristics across the three groups.The results showed that the malnourished group was older and exhibited significantly higher levels of hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin(P<0.05),while serum albumin,creatinine,and phosphorus levels were significantly lower(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between SGA grades and hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin levels(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis with"malnutrition"as the dependent variable indicated that elevated hs-CRP,PTX3,and hepcidin levels,along with age and male gender,were associated with increased risk of malnutrition in MHD patients,whereas higher serum phosphorus and creatinine levels were protec-tive factors.Further multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that serum PTX3 level was an independent risk factor for malnutrition(P=0.032),while higher creatinine level was an independent protective factor(P=0.047).ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of serum PTX3 and creatinine levels had a high diagnostic value for identifying malnutrition in MHD patients,yielding an AUC of 0.789(P<0.001),a Youden index of 0.448,sensitivity of 77.8%,and specificity of 71.0%.Conclusions Elevated levels of PTX3 and hepcidin,along with reduced serum creatinine levels,are associated with an increased risk of malnutrition in patients undergoing MHD.Notably,elevated serum PTX3 and decreased serum creatinine independently predict malnutrition in this population and demonstrate high predictive value.
