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 The aim of the study is to analyze the incidence patterns and epidemiological characteristics of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in the Minhang and Jinshan districts of Shanghai, and provide evidence-based information for optimizing prevention and control measures. Methods We collected information from epidemic reports and epidemiological investigation forms for cases of parasitic and vector-borne diseases from 2005 to 2024 in Shanghai's Minhang and Jinshan districts. Descriptive epidemiological method were adopted to conduct a comparative analysis of incidence trends, epidemic characteristics, and infection sources. Results A total of 229 cases in 7 categories were reported between 2005 and 2024, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.36/100 000. The average annual incidence rate in Minhang District was significantly higher than that in Jinshan District. The most prevalent diseases were malaria and dengue fever, followed by Japanese encephalitis. Monthly case reports were available, predominantly from June to October, with a peak in July-August. A statistically significant difference was observed between the two districts in case distribution during June-October (P＜0.001), whereas no significant difference was found for July-August (P=0.331). The majority of cases were young men (111/229,48.47%), aged 20-39 years. Migrant workers/farmers constituted the largest occupational group (55/229, 24.02%). Registered residents of other provinces and cities (147/229,64.19%), and the main source of infection was overseas importation (112/229,48.91%). There were no statistically significant differences in gender and household-registration composition between the two districts (P＞0.05). Significant differences existed in age, occupation, and source of infection (P＜0.05). The imported diseases were malaria and dengue fever, with Africa and Southeast Asia being the primary source locations. Malaria was the predominant disease imported from other provinces and cities, with cases having been imported from abroad since 2012. Local infections were mainly Japanese encephalitis, followed by malaria (with the last local case reported in 2010). Cases between 2005 and 2009 were predominantly imported from other provinces and cities. The proportion of cases imported from abroad increased sharply after 2010, particularly in Minhang District. Local infections sometimes arise in Jinshan District, with Japanese encephalitis serving as the primary type. Conclusions Incidence rates of parasitic and vector-borne diseases in Minhang and Jinshan districts have generally remained low. To further reduce this disease burden, it will be necessary to strengthen joint measures for prevention and control, eliminate the environmental risk factors of vector organisms, enhance monitoring and precise control of the environment and inbound personnel to prevent the occurrence and transmission of parasitic and vector-borne diseases.

Objective:Based on the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, back propagation neutral network (BPNN), and ARIMA-BPNN model, select the optimal model suitable for predicting the incidence trend of hepatitis C in Taiyuan City according to the characteristics of the data.Methods:The data of reported cases of hepatitis C in Taiyuan from 2008 to 2021 were selected, and the seasonal trend decomposition chart was used to analyze the seasonal characteristics of the monthly incidence rate of hepatitis C in Taiyuan during the period, and the ARIMA model, BPNN model, and ARIMA-BPNN model were established to predict. The performance of the model was measured using four indicators: mean absolute error ( MAE), mean squared error ( MSE), root mean square error ( RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error ( MAPE). Results:A total of 20 025 cases of hepatitis C were reported, and the overall incidence trend was stable. The BPNN model performed well on MSE, MAE, and RMSE indicators, the ARIMA-BPNN model performed well on MAPE indicators, and the ARIMA model performed relatively averagely. Conclusions:The ARIMA-BPNN model is a better model for predicting the trend of hepatitis C in Taiyuan City, with a higher predictive performance than a single model. It has significant prospects in predicting the trend of infectious diseases.

The abnormal rate of nail microcirculation in CTDs-RP group was higher than that in CTDs-nonRP group [ OR value(95% CI)=2.20 (1.55, 3.12), P<0.001], Subgroup analysis showed that the proportion of scleroderma pattern in the CTDs-RP group was higher than that in the control group [ OR value (95% CI)=10.88 (2.34, 50.52), P=0.002], Telangiectasia rate in the CTDs-RP group was higher than that in the control group [ OR value (95% CI)=5.12 (3.40, 7.70), P<0.001]. The SSc pattern was higher in patients with CTD-RP than in the control group [ OR (95% CI)=2.47 (1.60, 3.79), P<0.001], The rate of capillary malformation in the CTD-RP group was higher than that in the control group [ OR value (95% CI)=2.39 (1.36, 4.19), P=0.002], The capillary density was mild decreased in the CTD-RP group [SMD value (95% CI)=-0.27 (-0.66, 0.13), P=0.185]. Conclusion:The proportion of patients with nail-fold abnormality is higher in CTD-RP group was higher than in the CTD-noRP group, and the microcirculation injury is more severe in CTD-RP group.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To study the changes in biliary fluid dynamics in patients with hepatolithiasis after cholecystectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 101 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent percutaneous transhepatic scleroscopic choledochotomy for stone extraction at the First Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from September 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, among which there were 47 males and 54 females with the age of (51.8±15.7) years. They were divided into two groups based on whether they had undergone previous cholecystectomy or not: cholecystectomy group ( n=53) and non-chole-cystectomy group ( n=48). The pressures in the left hepatic duct, right hepatic duct and lower end of the common bile duct were compared between the two groups, as well as the viscosity of bile at different rates of incision. Results:There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics such as gender, age, and liver function between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the non-cholecystectomy group, the bile viscosity in the cholecystectomy group were significantly lower at shear rates of 1/s, 50/s, and 200/s [1/s: (8.96±1.15) mPa·s vs. (13.13±1.25) mPa·s; 50/s: (2.37±0.18) mPa·s vs. (3.59±0.34) mPa·s; 200/s: (1.82±0.13) mPa·s vs. (2.25±0.15) mPa·s], with statistically significant diffe-rences (all P<0.05). The biliary pressure in the left hepatic duct, right hepatic duct, and lower end of the common bile duct in the cholecystectomy group were significantly higher than that in the non-cholecystectomy group [left hepatic duct: (16.43±7.02) cmH 2O vs. (13.84±5.07) cmH 2O; right hepatic duct: (16.71±7.36) cmH 2O vs. (13.76±5.03) cmH 2O; lower end of the common bile duct: (14.60±6.73) cmH 2O vs. (10.58±4.84) cmH 2O] (1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa), with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Bile viscosity decreases after cholecystectomy in patients with hepatolithiasis, whereas biliary pressure increases at the left and right hepatic ducts and at the lower end of the common bile duct, and these changes may be closely related to the mechanism of hepatolithiasis formation and recurrence.

Objective To explore the networked association among the dimensions of self-efficacy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and to identify core efficacy and bridge efficacy,and provide a basis for formulating precise nursing intervention strategies.Methods A total of 652 RA patients admitted in our hospital from September 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled with convenience sampling.The general information questionnaire and Rheumatoid Arthritis Self-Efficacy Scale(RASE)were used for assessment.Exploratory factor analysis was used to extract efficacy symptom clusters.With aid of R project,network analysis was employed to construct an association network among efficacy dimensions to calculate centrality indicators(strength,closeness,betweenness)to identify core efficacy and bridge efficacy.Results Exploratory factor analysis extracted 7 efficacy symptom clusters,with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 64.539%(P<0.001).Network analysis showed that the network density was 0.143,suggesting that there were moderate correlations among the self-efficacy dimensions."Relaxation efficacy 1(r1)"and"pain efficacy 1(a1)"had the strongest correlation(r=0.73).Interpersonal efficacy 2(i2)had the highest intensity centrality(6.88),and relaxation efficacy 3(r3)had the highest tightness(0.0125),and medication efficacy 1(m1)had the highest mediation(116),which were the core efficacy and bridge efficacy in this network group.Conclusion There are complex network-like correlations among the various dimensions of self-efficacy in RA patients.Interpersonal efficacy is the core driving factor,while relaxation and medication efficacies play the bridging role,jointly influencing the overall level of patients'self-management ability.

OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics, co-mutated genes in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with NRAS and KRAS gene mutations, and the impact of NRAS and KRAS mutations on prognosis. METHODS: The clinical data and next-generation sequencing results of 80 newly diagnosed AML patients treated at our hospital from December 2018 to December 2023 were collected. The clinical characteristics, co-mutated genes of NRAS and KRAS , and the impact of NRAS and KRAS mutations on prognosis in newly diagnosed AML patients were analyzed. RESULTS: Among 80 newly diagnosed AML patients, NRAS mutations were detected in 20 cases(25.0%), and KRAS mutations were detected in 9 cases(11.3%). NRAS mutations predominantly occurred at codons 12 and 13 of exon 2, as well as codon 61 of exon 3, while KRAS mutations were most commonly occurred at codons 12 and 13 of exon 2, all of which were missense mutations. There were no statistically significant differences observed in terms of age, sex, white blood cell count(WBC), hemoglobin(Hb), platelet count(PLT), bone marrow blasts, first induction chemotherapy regimen, CR1/CRi1 rates, chromosome karyotype, 2022 ELN risk classification and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT) among the NRAS mutation group, KRAS mutation group and NRAS/KRAS wild-type group (P >0.05). KRAS mutations were significantly correlated with PTPN11 mutations (r =0.344), whereas no genes significantly associated with NRAS mutations were found. Survival analysis showed that compared to the NRAS/KRAS wild-type group, patients with NRAS mutation had a relatively higher 5-year overall survival (OS) rate and relapse-free survival (RFS) rate, though the differences were not statistically significant (P =0.097, P =0.249). Compared to the NRAS/KRAS wild-type group, patients with KRAS mutation had a lower 5-year OS rate and RFS rate, with no significant differences observed (P =0.275, P =0.442). There was no significant difference in the 5-year RFS rate between the KRAS mutation group and NRAS mutation group (P =0.157), but the 5-year OS rate of patients with KRAS mutation was significantly lower than that of patients with NRAS mutation (P =0.037). CONCLUSION In newly diagnosed AML patients, KRAS mutation was significantly correlated with PTPN11 mutation. Compared to patients with NRAS/KRAS wild-type, those with NRAS mutation showed a more favorable prognosis, while patients with KRAS mutation showed a poorer prognosis; however, these differences did not reach statistical significance. Notably, the prognosis of AML patients with KRAS mutation was significantly inferior compared to those with NRAS mutation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of gut microbiota changes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing induction chemotherapy and to explore the relationship between infectious complications and gut microbiota. METHODS: Fecal samples were collected from 37 newly diagnosed AML patients at four time points: before induction chemotherapy, during chemotherapy, during the neutropenic phase, and during the recovery phase. Metagenomic sequencing was used to analyze the dynamic changes in gut microbiota. Correlation analyses were conducted to assess the relationship between changes in gut microbiota and the occurrence of infectious complications. RESULTS: During chemotherapy, the gut microbiota α-diversity (Shannon index) of AML patients exhibited significant fluctuations. Specifically, the diversity decreased significantly during induction chemotherapy, further declined during the neutropenic phase (P < 0.05, compared to baseline), and gradually recovered during the recovery phase, though not fully returning to baseline levels.The abundances of beneficial bacteria, such as Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, gradually decreased during chemotherapy, whereas the abundances of opportunistic pathogens, including Enterococcus, Klebsiella, and Escherichia coli, progressively increased.Analysis of the dynamic changes in gut microbiota of seven patients with bloodstream infections revealed that the bloodstream infection pathogens could be detected in the gut microbiota of the corresponding patients, with their abundance gradually increasing during the course of infection. This finding suggests that bloodstream infections may be associated with opportunistic pathogens originating from the gut microbiota.Compared to non-infected patients, the baseline samples of infected patients showed a significantly lower relative abundance of Bacteroidetes (P < 0.05). Regression analysis indicated that Bacteroidetes abundance is an independent predictive factor for infectious complications (P < 0.05, OR =13.143). CONCLUSION During induction chemotherapy in AML patients, gut microbiota α-diversity fluctuates significantly, and the abundance of opportunistic pathogens increase, which may be associated with bloodstream infections. Patients with lower baseline Bacteroidetes abundance are more prone to infections, and its abundance can serve as an independent predictor of infectious complications.
