Allergen-specific immunotherapy（AIT） remains the only therapeutic approach with the potential to modify the natural course of allergic rhinitis（AR）. Nevertheless, considerable inter-individual variability exists in patients'responses to AIT. To facilitate more reliable assessment of treatment efficacy, the China Rhinopathy Research Cooperation Group（CRRCG） convened young and middle-aged nasal experts in China to formulate the present consensus. The recommended subjective outcome measures for AIT comprise symptom scores, medication scores, combined symptom and medication scores, quality-of-life assessments, evaluation of disease control, and assessment of comorbidities. Objective indicators may supplement these measures. Currently available objective approaches include skin prick testing, nasal provocation testing, and allergen exposure chambers. However, these methods remain constrained by practical limitations and are not yet appropriate for routine implementation in clinical efficacy evaluation. In addition, several biomarkers, including sIgE and the sIgE/tIgE ratio, sIgG4, serum IgE-blocking activity, IgA, cytokines and chemokines, as well as immune cell surface molecules and their functional activity, have been shown to have associations with AIT outcomes. While these biomarkers may complement subjective assessments, they are subject to significant limitations. Consequently, large-scale multicenter trials and real-world evidence are required to strengthen the evidence base. The present consensus underscores the necessity of integrating patients'subjective experiences with objective testing throughout the treatment process, thereby providing a more comprehensive and accurate framework for efficacy evaluation. Looking forward, future investigations should prioritize the incorporation of multi-omics data and artificial intelligence methodologies, which hold promise for overcoming current limitations in assessment strategies and for advancing both the standardization and personalization of AIT.

Azvudine and nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (Paxlovid) are recommended for COVID-19 treatment in China, but their safety and efficacy in the elderly population are not fully known. In this multicenter, retrospective, cohort study, we identified 5131 elderly hospitalized COVID-19 patients from 32,864 COVID-19 patients admitted to nine hospitals in Henan Province, China, from December 5, 2022, to January 31, 2023. The primary outcome was all-cause death, and the secondary outcome was composite disease progression. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to control for confounding factors, including demographics, vaccination status, comorbidities, and laboratory tests. After 2:1 PSM, 1786 elderly patients receiving azvudine and 893 elderly patients receiving Paxlovid were included. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses revealed that compared with Paxlovid group, azvudine could significantly reduce the risk of all-cause death (log-rank P = 0.002; HR: 0.71, 95% CI: 0.573-0.883, P = 0.002), but there was no difference in composite disease progression (log-rank P = 0.52; HR: 1.05, 95% CI: 0.877-1.260, P = 0.588). Four sensitivity analyses verified the robustness of above results. Subgroup analysis suggested that a greater benefit of azvudine over Paxlovid was observed in elderly patients with primary malignant tumors (P for interaction = 0.005, HR: 0.32, 95% CI: 0.18-0.57) compared to patients without primary malignant tumors. Safety analysis revealed that azvudine treatment had a lower incidence of adverse events and higher lymphocyte levels than Paxlovid treatment. In conclusion, azvudine treatment is not inferior to Paxlovid treatment in terms of all-cause death, composite disease progression and adverse events in elderly hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

During the Jin dynasty,the two major academic schools of Hejian and Yishui emerged in northern China.At this time,the Song dynasty migrated southward,accompanied by the southward movement of the Han ethnic culture and economic center.The dissemination of medicine also showed a trend of spreading from the north to the south.The late Yuan dynasty was an important period for the academic dissemination of the Yishui school to the south.On the one hand,ZHU Danxi,GE Yinglei,HUA Shou,and other clinicians studied the academic works of LI Dongyuan,comprehended his academic ideas,and further disseminated them through their disciples and Confucian scholars.On the other hand,academic works such as Jisheng Bacui and Weisheng Baojian carrying the study of Yishui were published in the south,playing an essential role in disseminating Yishui's study in the south.The dissemination of Yishui's learning to the south adopted a combination of book learning and mentorship,effectively breaking down the academic barriers between the Hejian and Yishui schools.The network formed by the interaction between medical scholars and Confucian scholars was an essential medium for academic dissemination.The study of Yishui was transmitted to the south and integrated with the original spleen and stomach theory in the south,promoting the further development of traditional Chinese medicine spleen and stomach theory.

Objective:To investigate the sense of coherence, job stressors and mental health status of nurses practitioners, and analyze the correlation among them.Methods:In September 2020, nurses practitioners in Chengdu City, Sichuan Province were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling method. The Sense of Coherence Scale, Nurses' Job Stressors Scale and SCL-90 were used to investigate their sense of coherence, job stressors and mental health status, respectively. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the correlation among them, and the structural equation model was constructed to explore the mechanism of them.Results:A total of 1693 nurse practitioners were included. The total scores of sense of coherence, job stressors and SCL-90 were (65.00±14.01) points, (69.08±18.38) points and (129.68±52.99) points, respectively. The mean scores of all dimensions of sense of coherence of nurse practitioners were negatively correlated with the mean scores of all dimensions of job stressors and SCL-90 ( P<0.001). And there were positive correlations between the mean scores of all dimensions of job stressors and the mean scores of all dimensions of SCL-90 ( P<0.001). The structural equation model fitted well. The path coefficient between job stressors and sense of coherence was -0.372 ( P<0.001), and the path coefficient between sense of coherence and SCL-90 score was -0.647 ( P<0.001) . Conclusion:The sense of coherence plays a significant buffering role in job stressors and mental health of nurses practitioners. Nursing managers should be committed to improving the level of sense of coherence of nurses, enhance the happiness of nurses at work, and improve their mental health level.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the pharmaceutical service process in a fracture patient complicated by fat embolism syndrome （FES） following postoperative fracture， aiming to provide a reference for clinical treatment and pharmaceutical service for similar patients. METHODS Clinical pharmacist participated in the entire treatment process of a patient with FES following postoperative fracture. Based on the patient’s clinical manifestations and test results， literature was reviewed to assist clinical physicians in formulating the therapeutic regimen of glucocorticoids. For the drug-related adverse reactions of renal function impairment and reduced platelet count that occurred during the treatment， suspicious drugs were analyzed and disposed of accordingly. RESULTS The clinical pharmacist recommended Hydrocortisone sodium succinate for injection （100 mg， q8 h， ivgtt， for about one week followed by a gradual dose reduction） for treating FES. The Vancomycin hydrochloride for injection used in this case was assessed as “very probably” associated with the adverse drug reactions of renal function impairment and thrombocytopenia. The clinical physician adopted the pharmacist’s medication recommendations， and the patient’s condition stabilized after treatment， with improvement in adverse reactions， and was discharged from the hospital. CONCLUSIONS The use of glucocorticoids in treating FES has a definite therapeutic efficacy. Clinical pharmacists should individualize the medication plan based on the patient’s pathological state and distinguish it from postoperative sepsis. Meanwhile， drug-induced adverse reactions in the kidney and blood system should be closely monitored.
