OBJECTIVE To formulate Guidelines for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics （ 2026 edition ） in response to the challenges faced by such clinics in China， including uneven development， large discrepancies in service specifications， insufficient patient awareness， and limited medical insurance coverage. METHODS Led by the Pharmaceutical Affairs Professional Committee of the Chinese Hospital Association， the Evidence-based Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association， and the Hospital Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Cross-strait Medical and Health Exchange Association， a total of 19 domestic hospital pharmacy experts were organized. Through a systematic review of national policies and literature research， current practical experience was summarized. Consensus on the contents of the guidelines was reached after in-depth discussions. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS The guidelines covered five sections： definition and connotation of pharmacist-managed clinics， establishment requirements， implementation and management， post competency， and practical research. Firstly， the definition and connotation included three operational forms of pharmacist-managed clinics （independent mode， physician-pharmacist joint mode， and online pharmacist-managed clinic mode） and classified service modes （specialty-specific， drug-specific， and disease-specific pharmacist-managed clinics）. The establishment requirements were further refined， covering system construction （pharmaceutical service management system， quality control and assessment mechanism）， personnel qualifications （professional credentials， continuing education and professional training， etc）， service recipients， as well as service venues and facilities. Subsequently， the implementation and management of pharmacist-managed clinics were proposed， involving service procedures， intervention measures， documentation and records， patient education and follow-up， humanistic care， as well as risk management and quality control. Finally， post competency encompassed the competency requirements for pharmacists providing services in pharmacist-managed clinics， as well as the suggestions on teaching methods； practical research encouraged the conduct of high-quality pharmaceutical practice in the setting of pharmacist-managed clinics. The guidelines provide valuable guidance for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics in China in terms of establishment， management， teaching， and research， fill the guideline gap in this field， and can promote the high-quality development of pharmacist-managed clinics.

OBJECTIVE: To study effective methods for reducing lung V₅, V₁₀, and mean lung dose (MLD) in the design of volumetric modulated arc therapy for central lung cancer by using different arc configurations and dose-limiting blocks designs. METHODS: Five groups of plans were designed for the enrolled patients. Group A used a full-arc field. Group B used a partial-arc field. Groups C, D, and E used full-arc fields with vertical-length, semi-ring, and triangular dose-limiting blocks added respectively. The dosimetric similarities of target areas and the dosimetric differences in lung V₅, V₁₀, V₂₀, and MLD among the groups were compared. RESULTS: Compared with group A, groups B, C, D, and E had decreased homogeneity and conformity of the target area, but significantly lower V₅ and V₁₀ of the whole lung. The MLD of groups C, D, and E was lower than that of group A. CONCLUSION Using a full-arc field combined with dose-limiting blocks can effectively reduce lung V₅, V₁₀, MLD, and monitor units (MU).

Objective To establish a simplified simulation method of rocking-chair archwire(RCA),explore the biomechanical effect of RCA during anterior teeth retraction with sliding mechanics,and provide guidance for clinical treatment.Methods A standard 0.019 in×0.025 in(0.483 mm×0.635 mm)labial archwire was imported into ANSYS software and preloaded spring was used to simulate RCA at different angles to achieve parameterized modeling.A three-dimensional(3D)finite element model with labial straight wire appliance,teeth,periodontium and maxillary bone was established to analyze the displacement and force of anterior/posterior teeth under 1.5 N intra-arch traction combined with RCA at different angles.Results Preloading forces of 1.5,3,4.5,and 6 N in spring induced angles of approximately 5°,10°,15°,and 20° for RCA,demonstrating the flexibility and convenience of the parameterized modeling method.During intra-arch traction with increased angle of RCA,lingual crown displacement of the middle incisor gradually decreased,while the lateral incisor and canine showed decreased crown tipping and increased lingual root displacement;when the RCA angle was 20°,the lateral incisor and canine achieved almost bodily retraction.Meanwhile,premolars showed an extrusion tendency,while molars demonstrated distal crown tipping and intrusion tendency.As the RCA angle increased from 0° to 20°,intrusive force on the anterior teeth increased,and the moment-force ratio(M/F)at bracket level increased from 0 to near 9 mm.Conclusions RCA can effectively control the moving pattern of the maxillary anterior teeth and prevent their over-erection and extrusion during retraction with sliding mechanics.During intra-arch traction with rigid stainless steel archwire,theoretically RCA of 20° has sufficient torque control on the anterior teeth to achieve their en-masse retraction.

Objective To explore the trajectory and influencing factors of changes in physical ac-tivity(PA)in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)during chemotherapy.Methods A random sampling method was used to select NSCLC patients receiving chemotherapy in Suzhou Ninth People's Hospital as the research objects.Patients' materials were collected using a general informa-tion questionnaire,the M.D.Anderson Symptom Inventory(MDASI),the Family Adaptation,Part-nership,Growth,Affection,and Resolve index(APGAR),and the Self-Rated Approaches for Health Promotion Scale(SRAHP).The International Physical Activity Questionnaire-long-form(IPAQ-L)was used to assess patients' PA levels before the first chemotherapy course(T0),before the second course(T1),before the fourth course(T2),and before the sixth course(T3).The latent growth mixture model(LGMM)was used to identify the trajectory types of patients' physical activity metabolic equivalents(MET).Unordered multinomial Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of PA change trajectories in NSCLC patients during chemotherapy.Results A total of 213 NSCLC patients completed this study.The PA values of NSCLC patients at T0,T1,T2 and T3 were(1 091.29±285.76),(456.43±92.78),(467.61±94.72),and(934.35±199.18)MET-min/week,respectively,with significant between-group differences(F=645.601,P＜0.001).After fitting with the LGMM,three latent categories were selected:the low PA maintenance group(ac-counting for 28.64％),the medium PA decline followed by late-stage recovery group(accounting for 51.64％),and the medium PA decline followed by mid-stage recovery group(accounting for 19.72％).Analysis showed that age,tumor stage,health behavior capacity,symptom severity and symptom distress,and family care were influencing factors for the PA trajectorycategories of NSCLC patients during chemotherapy(all P＜0.05).Analysis of variable interaction effects found that health behavior capacity(OR=0.376,95％CI,0.192 to 0.853)had a strong protective effect on the medium PA decline followed by mid-stage recovery group(there was an interaction effect,P＜0.05).Conclusion There is population heterogeneity in PA among NSCLC patients during chemo-therapy.Medical staffs should develop targeted measures based on the population characteristics and influencing factors of patients' PA trajectories to improve their PA levels.

Objective By using intravoxel incoherent motion(IVIM)double exponential model liver multi-b value diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI)scanning technique to analyze the lesion's IVIM parameters before and after interventional treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)with conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)combined with CalliSpheres drug-loaded microspheres(DEB-TACE),based on which to quantitatively evaluate the efficacy of interventional therapy for HCC.Methods A total of 40 HCC patients,who were admitted to the Department of Interventional Therapy of Anqing Municipal Hospital of China from June 2022 to November 2023 to receive DEB-T ACE,were enrolled in this study.Routine MR examination,DWI and IVIM-DWI scan were performed before and at 1,3 and 6 months after treatment,and a total of 40 interest lesions were selected.The ADC value,perfusion fraction(f),pure diffusion coefficient(D),and perfusion-related diffusion coefficient(D*)of each lesion were analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the prognosis assessment value of IVIM-DWI parameters.Results After DEB-TACE treatment,the ADC value and D value were increased,and the f value was decreased when compared with their preoperative values,the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.01).The ADC value and D value in the patients of effective group were remarkably higher than those in the patients of ineffective group,the differences were statistically significant(both P＜0.01);the f value in the patients of effective group was slightly lower than that in the patients of ineffective group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The areas under ROC curve of ADC value,D value and f value for evaluating efficacy were 0.762,0.877,and 0.708 respectively.The area under the curve for the joint assessment of the three parameters was 0.928,with the highest efficacy.Conclusion IVIM-DWI can quantitatively determine the microperfusion and activity of HCC lesions before and after interventional DEB-TACE treatment,and it can also evaluate the curative efficacy of interventional therapy for HCC as well as the outcome of HCC lesions.

Objective:To develop and validate a predictive model for massive hemorrhage during brain tumor resection in pediatric patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data from pediatric patients who underwent elective brain tumor resection under general anesthesia at the Women and Children′s Medical Center Affiliated to Guangzhou Medical University from December 2016 to October 2023. The patients were randomly divided into model group and internal validation group in a ratio of 8∶2. Pediatric patients who underwent elective brain tumor resection under general anesthesia at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2021 to July 2024 were selected and served as external validation group. Relevant characteristic variables were screened through Lasso regression. A multivariate logistic regression was used to develop the model and plot the nomogram for intraoperative massive hemorrhage. The performance of the model was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and calibration curve.Results:Through Lasso regression and multivariate logistic regression analyses, 11 independent influencing factors were identified: age ( OR=0.323, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 0.280-0.374, P<0.001), weight ( OR=0.164, 95% CI: 0.135-0.199, P<0.001), activated partial thromboplastin time ( OR=1.133, 95% CI: 1.036-1.239, P=0.006), thrombin time ( OR=1.141, 95% CI: 1.048-1.243, P=0.002), red blood cell count ( OR=0.941, 95% CI: 0.888-0.996, P=0.035), hemoglobin concentration ( OR=0.873, 95% CI: 0.822-0.926, P<0.001), platelet count ( OR=1.062, 95% CI: 1.001-1.127, P=0.048), maximum tumor diameter ( OR=2.384, 95% CI: 2.241-2.536, P<0.001), tumor invasiveness ( OR=2.376, 95% CI: 2.071-2.726, P<0.001), hydrocephalus ( OR=2.409, 95% CI: 2.139-2.713, P<0.001), and centered midline structure ( OR=0.509, 95% CI: 0.465-0.557, P<0.001). Based on this, a nomogram prediction model was established. The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under the curve of this model in predicting the risk of massive hemorrhage during brain tumor resection was 0.936 (95% CI: 0.90-0.959) in model group, 0.863 (95% CI: 0.744-0.948) in internal validation group, and 0.855 (95% CI: 0.726-0.955) in external validation group. The calibration curve indicated good model consistency, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test result showed a P value of 0.979 ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Age, body weight, activated partial thromboplastin time, thrombin time, red blood cell count, hemoglobin concentration, platelet count, maximum tumor diameter, tumor invasiveness, hydrocephalus and midline structure are independent influencing factors for major bleeding during brain tumor resection in pediatric patients, and the prediction model established based on this histogram has high accuracy.

Objective:To explore the value of endorectal echodefecography（EDF）in the evaluation of functional anorectal disorders（FAD）.Methods:A total of 67 patients clinically diagnosed with FAD who underwent EDF at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from September 2021 to August 2024 were retrospectively collected. EDF was performed using a combination of transrectal and transperineal scans. XRD was used as the reference standard.Results:The diagnostic accuracy，sensitivity，specificity，positive predictive value，and negative predictive value of EDF for common FADs were as follows：for rectocele，85.1%，84.6%，85.4%，78.6%，and 89.7%；for rectal intussusception，79.1%，50.0%，93.3%，78.6%，and 79.2%；for external rectal prolapse，94.0%，71.4%，100%，100%，and 93.0%；for anismus，82.1%，66.7%，82.8%，15.4%，and 98.1%；for perineal descent，65.7%，54.2%，72.1%，52.0%，and 52.0%.Conclusions:EDF is valuable for evaluating FAD，especially for external rectal prolapse and rectocele. It can serve as an effective complement to XRD and provide a non-invasive and safe imaging method for FAD diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the expression of YARS1, the subform of protein-based tRNA synthase ( YARS1), and its prognostic effect on the analysis of gene set enrichment in hepatocellular carcinoma Methods:The expressional condition of the YARS1 gene in tumor tissue samples (374 cases) and adjacent tissue samples (50 cases) of hepatocellular carcinoma patients was compared and recorded by mining the Cancer Genome Atlas database. Hepatocellular carcinoma patients were divided into high expression and low expression groups according to this data. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between YARS1 and the clinical pathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma patients. The effect of YARS1 expression on the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. The prognostic value of the YARS1 gene for hepatocellular carcinoma was analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression. Gene set enrichment analysis was used to evaluate the gene pathways related to YARS1 in the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma. Results:The expression of the YARS1 gene was higher in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue than in normal tissue ( P<0.001). The expression level of YARS1 was correlated with the grade of patients ( P<0.05), but not with age, gender, TNM stage, and others ( P>0.05). The results of Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test showed that the survival rate was lower in patients with high YARS1 gene expression than that of patients with low YARS1 gene expression ( P<0.001). The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that YARS1 was used as an independent prognostic factor for hepatocellular carcinoma [hazard ratio=1.10, 95% confidence interval (1.050-1.156), P<0.001]. The results of gene set enrichment analysis showed that YARS1 was involved in pyrimidine metabolism, purine metabolism, aminoacyl tRNA biosynthesis, fatty acid metabolism, ppar signal transduction pathway, oocyte meiosis, amino acid and nucleotide sugar metabolism, RNA degradation, complement pathway, valine and isoleucine degradation, spliceosome, and other pathways. Conclusion:The high expression of YARS1 is associated with the progression and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, this gene is expected to become a novel biomarker and a sort of target for biological therapy in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective:To explore the expression changes of N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-related proteins in the hippocampus of mice with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-like behavior and the therapeutic effects of sertraline hydrochloride.Methods:Male C57BL/6J mice aged 4-6 weeks were selected to establish a PTSD model using a single prolonged stress and foot shock stimulation. A total of 24 mice were randomly divided into the control group, model group, and sertraline group using a random number table, with 8 mice in each group. Mice in the sertraline group were intraperitoneally injected with sertraline hydrochloride (15 mg/kg, once daily) 24 h after PTSD modelling, continuing for 14 days. Mice in the control group and model group were injected with an equal volume of 0.9% NaCl solution (once daily, for 14 days). The anxiety, despair, and learning and memory functions of the mice were assessed using the open field test, Y-maze test, and forced swimming test. Western blot was performed to measure the protein expression levels of methyltransferase-like protein 3 (METTL3), fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO), ALKB homolog 5 (ALKBH5), Wilms tumour 1 associating protein (WTAP), and methyltransferase-like protein 14 (METTL14) in the hippocampus. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression levels of METTL3, FTO, and ALKBH5 in the hippocampus. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0 and GraphPad Prism 9.0.Comparisons between two groups were conducted using independent samples t-test, while comparisons among three groups were performed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Kruskal-Wallis H test, followed by pairwise comparisons using LSD test. Results:(1) Behavioral results showed that the total distance travelled in the central area ( F=9.231, P<0.05) and the time spent in the central area ( H=8.045, P<0.05) showed statistically significant differences among the control, model, and sertraline groups. Mice in the control and sertraline groups travelled a greater distance((332.68±121.17)cm, (248.56±40.21)cm) and spent more time(24.98(23.08, 26.71)s, 22.52(18.86, 26.20)s) in the central area than those in the model group((131.66±84.90)cm, 9.14(6.56, 18.53)s) (all P<0.05). In the forced swimming test, the number of resting episodes ( F=16.882, P<0.05) and the duration of rest ( H=12.285, P<0.05) differed significantly among the three groups. Mice in the control group ((19.14±8.30) counts, 30.21 (18.98, 52.62) s) and the sertraline group ((17.63±8.14) counts, 25.90 (16.78, 37.56) s) had fewer resting episodes and shorter resting durations compared to those in the model group ((37.75±6.47) counts, 83.37 (64.62, 124.42) s) (all P<0.05). The percentage of alternations in the Y-maze experiment showed significant statistical differences among the three groups( F=6.844, P<0.05). Mice in the control group ((51.33±11.49)%) and the sertraline group ((48.24±3.10)%) exhibited a higher percentage of alternations than that in the model group ((36.70±8.15)%) ( P<0.05). (2) Western blot results showed that the protein expression levels of METTL3, FTO, and ALKBH5 in the hippocampal tissue of the three groups showed significant differences ( F=10.263, 9.010, 6.950, all P<0.05). The METTL3 and FTO protein expression levels in the hippocampus in the control group (0.85±0.07, 0.86±0.04) and the sertraline group (0.93±0.06, 0.95±0.13) were higher than those in the model group (0.74±0.02, 0.68±0.04) (all P<0.05). However, the ALKBH5 protein expression levels in the control group (0.93±0.08) and the sertraline group (0.87±0.13) were lower than that in the model group (1.13±0.04) (both P<0.05). (3) Immunofluorescence results showed that the expression levels of METTL3, FTO, and ALKBH5 proteins in the hippocampal tissue of the three groups showed significant statistical differences ( F=37.912, 62.659, 54.417, all P<0.05). The expression levels of METTL3 and FTO in the hippocampus in the control group (14.03±0.32, 13.85±0.28) and the sertraline group (17.94±0.29, 10.52±0.66) were higher than those in the model group (11.67±1.48, 8.70±0.68) (all P<0.05). The expression levels of ALKBH5 in the control group (12.94±0.38) and the sertraline group (13.30±0.93) were lower than that in the model group (19.24±1.03) (both P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression of m6A-related proteins in the hippocampus of PTSD-like mice is altered. Sertraline treatment can significantly regulate the expression of these proteins and improve anxiety, despair, and learning and memory impairments in the PTSD-like mice.
