The research of damp-heat syndrome in modern TCM mainly focuses on inflammatory response, water metabolism, lipid metabolism, hemorheology, intestinal flora and so on. Modern omics techniques such as metabolomics and genomics provide a new perspective for the exploration of the micro-mechanism of damp-heat syndrome. The study found that the abnormal expression of aquaporin is closely related to the formation of "dampness" in damp-heat syndrome, and the release of inflammatory factors reflects the pathological characteristics of "heat". Damp-heat syndrome is often accompanied by dyslipidemia, hemorheological changes and intestinal flora imbalance, showing characteristic changes in urine, blood and saliva metabolomics, and there are differences in gene expression between damp-heat constitution and gentleness constitution. In the future, the pertinence and systematicness of research should be strengthened, the relationship between indicators should be deeply explored, build a biomarker system should be built, the immune-metabolic regulation mechanism should be explored, the multi-target mechanism of heat-clearing and dampness-removing Chinese materia medica should be clarified to further improve the damp-heat syndrome system, and provide theoretical support for clinical treatment.

BACKGROUND:
This study aimed to determine the reasons for conversion and elucidate the safety and efficacy of transition to tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine/bictegravir sodium (TAF/FTC/BIC) in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)-experienced HIV-infected patients in real-world settings.
METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective cohort study. The treatment conversion rationales, safety, and effectiveness in 1684 HIV-infected patients with previous HAART experience who switched to TAF/FTC/BIC were evaluated at Beijing Ditan Hospital from September 2021 to Auguest 2022.
RESULTS:
Regimen simplification (990/1684, 58.79%) was the most common reason for switching, followed by osteoporosis or osteopenia (375/1684, 22.27%), liver dysfunction (231/1684, 13.72%), decline in tenofovir alafenamide/emtricitabine/elvitegravir/cobicistat (TAF/FTC/EVG/c) with food restriction (215/1684, 12.77%), virological failure (116/1684, 6.89%), and renal dysfunction (90/1684, 5.34%). In patients receiving non-nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI)-containing regimens, lipid panel changes 1 year after switching indicated a difference of 3.27 ± 1.10 mmol/L vs . 3.40 ± 1.59 mmol/L in triglyceride ( P = 0.014), 4.82 ± 0.74 mmol/L vs . 4.88 ± 0.72 mmol/L in total cholesterol ( P = 0.038), 3.09 ± 0.70 mmol/L vs . 3.18 ± 0.66 mmol/L in low-density lipoprotein ( P <0.001), and 0.99 ± 0.11 mmol/L vs . 0.95 ± 0.10 mmol/L in high-density lipoprotein ( P <0.001). Conversely, among patients receiving booster-containing regimens, including TAF/FTC/EVG/c and lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), lipid panel changes presented decreased trends. We also observed an improved trend in viral load suppression, and alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and serum creatinine levels after the transition ( P <0.001).
CONCLUSION
The transition to TAF/FTC/BIC demonstrated good treatment potency. Furthermore, this study elucidates the motivations behind the adoption of TAF/FTC/BIC in real-world scenarios, providing clinical evidence supporting the stable conversion to TAF/FTC/BIC for HAART-experienced patients.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the level of pharmaceutical care,enhance the professional value and social status of pharmacists by clarifying the development process of pharmaceutical care and summarizing the value of pharmacists in pharmaceutical care. METHODS:The development process of pharmaceutical care at home and abroad(service objects,service contents and service methods)was summarized;the current situation of pharmaceutical care in China was analyzed;the value of pharmaceutical care were defined in respects of rational drug use,humanistic value and medical resources. The development of pharmaceutical care in the future was prospected. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:The development of pharmaceutical care can be divided into three stages:“drug supply as the center”“promoting rational drug use as the center”and“patients as the center”,and the service objects,service contents and service methods in different stages are expanding and diversifying. Compared with developed countries,the overall level of pharmaceutical care in China lags behind,and there are differences in level of pharmaceutical care modes in hospitals at different levels. Pharmacists ensure the safety,effectiveness and economy of drug use through pharmaceutical care,and promote rational drug use;the compliance,quality of life and satisfaction of patients have been improved through pharmaceutical care;pharmacists participate in medical quality management to save medical and health resources through pharmaceutical care. Pharmaceutical care,as an important part of the medical and health system,plays an important and irreplaceable role in the medical process,which is suggested that the relevant government departments should fully understand the value of pharmaceutical care and further strengthen their support for pharmaceutical care;pharmaceutical staff should improve their self-cultivation and cooperate with other disciplines to achieve the sustainable development of hospital pharmacy in different regions and medical institutions.

[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the relationship between expression of MICA/B (MHC class I chain-related proteinA/B) and disease-free survival (DFS) of patients with HER2+(human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) breast cancer tissue. Methods: Twenty six cases of corresponding para-cancerous tissue and 100 cases of HER2+ breast cancer tissue that preserved in wax at Zhengzhou People’ s Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University from January 2009 to June 2010 were collected for this study. Expression of MICA/ B in these tissue samples was detected by immunohistochemistry; and the relationship between MICA/B expression with clinicopathologic features as well as DFS was analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve. Results: The expression of MICA/B in adjacent paracancerous tissues was negative (0/26), however, it was highly positive in cancer tissues (92/100), and the percentage with high expression was 65%(65/100), the difference was significant (P<0.05). High MICA/B expression rate in stage I was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ (77.55% vs 52.94%, P<0.05), and the high expression rate in stage T1 was also significantly higher than that in stage T2-T4 (75.00% vs 52.27%, P<0.05). High MICA/B expression rate in ER+, PR+ group (with positive number≥1%) was significantly lower than that in ER- , PR-group (ER: 52.38% vs 74.14%,PR: 51.35% vs 73.02%, all P<0.05). MICA/B expression was correlated with clinical stages, the expression of ER, PR and tumor size (all P<0.05), but not associated with menopausal status, histological grade and lymph node metastasis (all P>0.05). Over-expression of MICA/B was closely associated with much better 6-year DFS rate in patients no matter with or without targeted therapy (the targeted group: 90.6% vs 72.2%; the untargeted group: 78.4% vs 58.8%, all P<0.05). Conclusion: Over-expression of MICA/B in HER2+ breast cancer tissue is closely related to DFS, which may be served as a potential prognosis indicator for patients with HER2+ breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the lung ultrasonography characteristics of community acquired pneumonia ( CAP) in children and to compare the value of lung ultrasonography in the diagnosis of CAP in children. Methods A total of 173 patients with CAP ( CAP group) were diagnosed by chest radiograph in our hospital,and 64 healthy children were treated with lung ultrasonography as the control group. The sono-graphic features of two groups were compared,and the positive rates of diagnosis of lung ultrasonography and chest radiograph in CAP group were also compared. Results It showed A-line disappearance ( 100%) , B-line presence ( 88. 4%) , pleural line abnormalities ( 98. 3%) , pulmonary consolidation ( 46. 2%) , bronchial sign(42. 8%),pleural effusion(9. 2%),lung sliding signs(97. 7%) in CAP group (P<0. 001). In the con-trol group,except the A-line disappearance,scattered in the B-line (34. 4%),the others were not present. The difference of the two groups was statistically significant (P<0. 001). A-line disappearance,B-line (or even fusion) ,pleural line abnormalities were the main signs of ultrasound in children with CAP, sensitivity and specificity were both 100%. The sensitivity of chest X radiograph was 100% and the specificity was 78. 0%. Conclusion The lung ultrasonic imaging features of CAP in children include A-line disappearance, with varying numbers and lengths of B-line, pleural line abnormalities, consolidation, bronchial signs, pleural effusion and so on. LUS can diagnose CAP accurately and reliably,with high sensitivity and specificity. It is simple and noninvasive, and has the advantage of being detected at any time and avoiding the damage of X-ray. So it is worth clinical application for children with respiratory tract diseases.
