OBJECTIVE To establish a Chinese drug-related problem (DRP) classification system applicable to pharmacist-led pharmaceutical care in China, providing pharmacists with an effective and practical tool for pharmaceutical care. METHODS A multi-stage process was employed to construct the DRP classification system, including literature review and analysis, comparison of existing classification systems, refinement of classification items and framework development, two rounds of standard case validation, expert discussion, and system revision. The Fleiss′ kappa test was used to calculate the consistency coefficient κ, assessing the reliability of pharmacists participating in evaluating the classification system. An electronic questionnaire comprising six items was employed to evaluate the system’s applicability. RESULTS The constructed Chinese DRP classification system comprised six sections [problem(including potential problems), DRP evaluation, cause (including possible causes of potential problems), intervention, acceptance of intervention and DRP status], with 24 primary codes and 96 secondary codes. In the first round of case validation, κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections except “intervention” and “DRP status”. In the second round, κ values exceeded 0.4 for all sections. In the applicability evaluation of the classification system, positive ratings (“strongly agree” or “agree”) exceeded 85% for all items. Specifically, positive ratings for“the classification system can provide appropriate category selection”,“ the classification system is comprehensive”,“ the classification system is convenient to use” and “the classification system is highly satisfactory” exceeded 92%. CONCLUSIONS The Chinese DRP classification system developed demonstrates both high reliability and applicability, providing an effective and practical classification tool for pharmacists in China to conduct pharmaceutical care.

Objective:To study the clinical and pathological features, immunophenotypes, molecular genetics characteristics, differential diagnosis, and prognostic factors of pulmonary and tracheal glomus tumors.Method:Eight cases of pulmonary and tracheal glomus tumors were collected in Jiangsu Provincial Hospital (including 1 consultation, from Gaochun People's Hospital, Nanjing, China) between May 2015 and April 2023, and their clinical and imaging data, pathological morphology, and immunohistochemical characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. Gene testing and follow-up were performed.Result:There were 5 males and 3 females with onset ages ranging from 29 to 75 years old, median age 63.5 years. Among the patients, 5 cases were located in the trachea and 3 cases in the lungs. Under light microscopy, 5 cases were benign glomus tumors with clear boundaries, diffuse sheet or nest-like distribution, small, round or short spindle-shaped tumor cells, rounded and centered nuclei, and no obvious nuclear mitosis was seen. Two cases of glomus tumor of uncertain malignant potential showed an infiltrative growth pattern involving smooth muscle, nerves and blood vessels with necrosis and calcification, the tumor cells were more uniform in size, round or short spindle-shaped nuclei, and no obvious nuclear mitosis was seen; One case of malignant glomus tumor was seen in sarcomatous areas, lung membrane invasion and necrosis, the tumor cells were highly heterogeneous, binucleated and multinucleated, with nuclear mitoses of 20/50 high power field (HPF), and pathologic nuclear mitoses were easy to be seen. Immunohistochemically, SMA, Calponin, H-caldesmon, Vimentin and Collagen Ⅳ were all positive (8/8). Some cases expressed Syn (3/8) and Bcl-2 (4/8). The Ki-67 proliferation index was 1-2% (7/8) and 40% (1/8). BRAF V600E were detected as wild-type (8/8), and no mutations were detected in exons 2, 3, and 4 of KRAS human EML4- ALK fusion gene were negative in 5 surgical cases. Case 6 showed HMBOX1- ALK gene fusion, TERT gene mutation and CDKN2A gene deletion, and case 8 showed CARMN- NOTCH2 gene fusion. Seven cases were followed up (8-103 months, median follow-up time 30 months), 1 case was lost, 1 case recurred 21 months after surgery, and others with no evidence of recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions:Pulmonary and tracheal glomus tumors are very rare and need to be differentiated from other common tumors by combining pathological morphology and immunohistochemistry. Maybe there are some differences in the malignant diagnostic criteria and molecular genetic characteristics between visceral derived glomus tumors and soft tissue derived tumors of the same kind, such as limbs and skin. More data accumulation is needed.
