OBJECTIVE To explore the characteristics and influential factors of pharmaceutical clinic service demands, providing evidence for optimizing pharmaceutical service models and facilitating pharmaceutical service models of pharmacist role transformation. METHODS A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, and 410 outpatient participants were selected from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center through convenience sampling for questionnaire administration from February to May 2025. Kano model was applied to analyze the demand attributes of 25 pharmaceutical services, while questionnaires were used to assess patients’ awareness and demand status. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on key demographic variables such as gender, age, educational attainment, and economic burdens, to SACA- systematically examine the differences in Kano attribute classification among patients in each subgroup. RESULTS The awareness rate of pharmaceutical outpatient services among patients was only 14.63%, yet those who were aware demonstrated a significantly higher demand rate for such services compared to those who were unaware (P<0.001). The demand for pharmaceutical clinic services exhibited a hierarchical characteristic: twelve items were identified as attractive attributes (e. g., providing suggestions for more affordable treatment options, offering online consultation services, etc.), five items as expected attributes (e.g., having a good attitude and being able to patiently answer your questions, etc.), three items as must-have attributes (e.g., providing guidance on medication dosage and usage, providing guidance on medication precautions, etc.), five items as indifferent attributes (e.g., providing treatment plan recommendations based on the patient’s condition). There were zero items classified as reverse attribute. Subgroup analysis revealed that female patients showed greater concern for “neat and clean attire of medical staff” than male patients (P<0.001); patients under 60 years of age demonstrated stronger demand for “providing treatment plan recommendations based on patients’ conditions” compared to patients aged 60 or above (P=0.016); those with below high school education placed greater emphasis on “providing guidance on medication precautions” compared to those with a high school education or above (P=0.011); patients with lower economic burdens exhibited stronger preferences for “neat and clean attire of medical staff ” (P=0.002). CONCLUSIONS The public awareness rate of pharmaceutical clinic services is considerably low; however, those who are aware of such services demonstrate significantly higher demand. The medication safety-related services and convenience-oriented demands should be prioritized in the development of pharmaceutical clinics. Moreover, the study also revealed that factors such as gender, age, educational level, and economic burdens exert significant influences on patients’ service demands.

Aim To study the effect of emetine on in-sulin secretion through glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor(GLP-1R).Methods Isolating rat islets were used to carry out insulin secretion experiment.Islets were incubated with different concentrations of emetine(2,10,50 μmol·L-1),different concentrations of glu-cose solution(2.8,11.1,16.7 mmol·L-1)or spe-cific GLP-1R antagonist Exendin(9-39).The amount of insulin secretion in the supernatant of each group was determined by an enzyme-linked radioimmunoas-say.Small molecule compounds were docked to GLP-1R(PDB code:5NX2)using SYBYL-X2.0 software.Results Emetine could promote insulin secretion in high glucose(11.1 mmol·L-1)in a dose-dependent manner.In low glucose(2.8 mmol·L-1),insulin secretion did not change after intervention of emetine.But in high glucose(11.1,16.7 mmol·L-1),insu-lin secretion significantly increased under the treatment of emetine in a glucose-dependent manner.The doc-king score of emetine and GLP-1R was Total Score=6.82,C Score=5,indicating that emetine had a good binding affinity with GLP-1R.Using Exendin(9-39)to block GLP-1R,the insulinotropic effect of emetine was reduced.Conclusion Emetine could promote in-sulin secretion,which is related to the activation of GLP-1R.

This study was aimed at understanding the genomic characteristics of the Vibrio cholerae O1 group isolated from humans in Fujian Province,to provide essential data for the molecular epidemiological study of cholera.From 2008 to 2022,16 strains of the V.cholerae O1 group from patients and carriers were collected,and antibiotic sensitivity was determined accord-ing to the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC).The whole genome sequences obtained through second generation sequen-cing were analyzed in open source software,including snippy,Roary,and Prokka,as well as online analysis websites,inclu-ding NCBI and BacWGSTdb,for core-genome multilocus sequence typing(cgMLST),core-genome single nucleotide polymor-phism analysis(cgSNP),virulence gene analysis,drug resistance gene prediction,and pan-genomic diversity analysis.The whole genome sequences of V.cholerae were divided into five sequence types(STs),among which the newly discovered ST182 and ST1480 were the evolutionary branches of the current dominant clonal group ST75 in China,and were highly related to two strains isolated from Taiwan in 2010 and 2013,respectively.Both toxigenic strains and non-toxigenic strains carried a variety of virulence factors and showed gene variation to varying degrees.Thirteen drug resistance genes in seven categories were predicted,among which the distribution of colistin and tetracycline resistance genes was consistent with the drug resistance phenotype.Pan-ge-nomic analysis indicated that V.cholerae had an open pan-genome,and Roary cluster analysis showed higher resolution than cgMLST.In summary,V.cholerae O1 group isolates from humans in Fujian Province have polymorphisms in genome structure and function,and the newly discovered ST1480 clone group has epidemic potential.Therefore,the monitoring of such strains must be strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and genetic features of patients with spastic paraplegia and psychomotor retardation with or without seizures (SPPRS) caused by HACE1 gene mutation. Methods:Clinical data, auxiliary examination and genetic test results of a child with SPPRS caused by HACE1 gene mutation who was admitted to Henan Children′s Hospital in April 2019 were collected. The clinical and genotypic characteristics of children with SPPRS were summarized by searching the relevant literature up to June 2024, retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang and PubMed databases with the terms of " HACE1" "SPPRS" "seizures" "spastic paraplegia". Results:The patient was a 11 months and 20 days old male, with a clinical phenotype including global developmental delay, leg spastic tremor, frequent epileptic seizures, obesity, and concurrent urethral malformation. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed enlarged bilateral ventricles, hypoplastic corpus callosum, delayed myelination. Genetic test results revealed compound heterozygous variants c.994C>T (p.R332 *) and c.1679-2A>G in the HACE1 gene (according to the transcript NM_020771), respectively inherited from his mother and father, with c.1679-2A>G being a newly reported variant. A total of 6 English literatures reported 21 SPPRS patients in 11 families, and HACE1 gene mutations were mainly characterized by nonsense mutations. The main clinical manifestations included global developmental delay (21 cases), movement disorders (21 cases), intellectual disabilities (18 cases), seizures (13 cases), obesity (13 cases), skeletal abnormalities (11 cases), microcephaly (9 cases), ocular abnormalities (9 cases), distinctive facial features (5 cases), sensorineural hearing loss (5 cases), and short stature (3 cases). MRI predominantly showed hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, ventricular dilation, paucity of white matter and cerebral atrophy. There were no clear genotype-phenotype correlations. A total of 13 HACE1 gene mutations were reported, including 9 nonsense mutations, 2 frameshift mutations, 1 in-frame mutation, and 1 missense mutation. Among the 11 families, only 2 families with 5 patients were caused by compound heterozygous mutations, c.1852_1853del (p.L832del) and c.454C>T (p.Q152 *), c.2242C>T (p.R748 *) and c.2019_2020insTTTAGGTATTTTTAGGTATT (p.P674fs). The other 16 patients in 9 families were caused by homozygous mutations of the remaining 9 mutations. Conclusions:SPPRS is rare and usually occurs in infancy. The main clinical manifestations include comprehensive developmental delay, movement disorders, epilepsy, etc. Currently, no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been found. The c.1679-2A>G variant of the HACE1 gene is an unreported variant and enriches the mutation spectrum of the HACE1 gene.
