ObjectiveTo explore the effects of different concentrations of oleic acid on human osteosarcoma cell lines 143B and HOS， as well as the impacts of the optimal concentration of oleic acid on cellular lipid droplet synthesis and cell functions. MethodsThe 143B and HOS cells were treated with varying concentrations of oleic acid （0， 25， 50， 100， and 200 µmol/L） for 48 hours. Following treatment， oil red O staining and BODIPY staining were performed to determine the optimal concentration. Subsequently， CCK-8 assays and colony formation experiments were conducted to assess the effect of this optimal concentration of oleic acid on the cell proliferation of both cell lines. Transwell migration assays were utilized to evaluate the influence of the optimal concentration on migratory capacity and Transwell invasion assays were utilized to evaluate the invasive ability. Additionally， Western blot analysis was employed to examine the expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） markers Epithelial cadherin （E-cadherin） and Neural cadherin （N-cadherin） in response to treatment with the optimal concentration of oleic acid. ResultsTreatment with oleic acid did not induce significant cell death in either 143B or HOS cells； however， an increase in intracellular lipid droplets was observed alongside enhanced proliferation， migration， invasion capabilities as well as EMT transformation potential （P<0.05）. ConclusionOleic acid induces lipid droplet synthesis in osteosarcoma cells which subsequently promotes their proliferation， migration and invasion abilities along with EMT transformation.

OBJECTIVE To form an expert consensus on the clinical application of parenteral direct thrombin inhibitors （DTIs） in patients during the perioperative period. METHODS Led by Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital （the Affiliated Hospital of UESTC）， a multidisciplinary working group was established. Through literature review and the Delphi method， clinical questions related to the rational perioperative use of parenteral DTIs were identified. A structured design was adopted using the “Population-Intervention-Comparison-Outcome” framework； systematic searches were conducted in CNKI， Medline， Embase and other databases. Relevant evidence from randomized controlled trials and cohort studies was included and synthesized. Evidence quality was assessed using the Grades of Recommendations Assessment，Development and Evaluation （GRADE） approach， and recommendations were formulated through multiple rounds of Delphi surveys and expert consensus meetings. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS Seven recommendations （each with an expert consensus rate exceeding 90%） on the use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative patients were developed. These recommendations specify drug selection， dosing ranges， key monitoring points， and safety management strategies for parenteral DTIs in various scenarios， including the perioperative period of ventricular assist device implantation， the perioperative period of cardiac surgery， perioperative patients with lower-extremity atherosclerotic disease， the perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome， the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting in patients with carotid stenosis， the perioperative period of patients with right heart thrombosis， and patients who develop related thrombosis and dysfunction after a central venous catheter insertion. In addition， warning and management pathways for perioperative bleeding and thrombotic events were proposed. This expert consensus， which is formulated based on the best available evidence， provides evidence-based guidance for standardized and individualized use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative period.

OBJECTIVE To clarify the current development status of clinical pharmacist training bases and the pharmacist workforce in China， and to provide evidence for standardizing base construction and promoting the high-quality development of hospital pharmacy. METHODS Questionnaires were distributed to all clinical pharmacist training bases for urgently-needed health professionals and clinical pharmacist training bases under the Chinese Hospital Association that had been approved by the end of 2023 to collect data including base profiles and pharmacist staffing conditions. Expert teams carried out field investigations to verify the collected data. Descriptive statistical analyses were conducted on the quantity， type and regional distribution of training bases， and the influencing factors of pharmacist staffing in the bases were analyzed. RESULTS Field surveys were completed covering 297 training bases across 31 provincial-level administrative regions. Among the base hospitals， 87.88% were Grade A tertiary general hospitals， and 65.32% were located in provincial capitals. The eastern region had the largest number of bases （136， accounting for 45.79%）， followed by the western region （79， 26.60%）. Great disparities existed among provinces in terms of base quantity and hospital scale. The median proportion of pharmaceutical technical personnel in base hospitals was 4.05%， and the median number of clinical pharmacists per 100 hospital beds was 0.53. Both indicators reached the highest in the eastern region （0.57， 4.43%） and the lowest in the northeastern region （0.45， 3.01%）. A total of 3 627 full-time clinical pharmacists were employed in all surveyed bases， among whom 83.68% held clinical pharmacist training certificates， 35.43% possessed senior professional titles， and 78.19% had postgraduate or higher educational background. The total annual training capacity of the surveyed bases was 4 291 trainees， with obvious differences in annual training capacity across regions and provinces. Training specialties covered 19 specialized disciplines plus one general discipline， and no province could deliver training for all 20 specialties simultaneously. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that geographic region exerte d a significant impact on the proportion of pharmaceutical technical personnel （≥4%） （ P ＜0.05）， while the approval time of training bases and hospital scale had significant effects on the number of clinical pharmacists per 100 beds （≥0.6） （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS China’s clinical pharmacist training system has basically matured and taken initial shape. The distribution of clinical pharmacist training resources is generally consistent with regional population and economic development levels. However， the allocation of pharmaceutical staff and clinical pharmacists has not yet met national standards and clinical service demands.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of quality management in clinical pharmacist training bases in China， and to provide references for the standardized development and improvement of these bases. METHODS A combined approach of questionnaire survey and on-site investigation was adopted， targeting the healthcare highly sought-after talent （clinical pharmacist） training bases in 31 provinces of China as well as the clinical pharmacist training bases affiliated with the Chinese Hospital Association. A training quality management evaluation index system consisting of 25 tertiary indicators was established. Investigations were conducted from two dimensions： structural quality of training and quality management of training processes. Data were statistically analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. RESULTS On-site investigations were completed for 297 clinical pharmacist training bases across the 31 provinces， among which 284 were affiliated with the Chinese Hospital Association and 271 were healthcare highly sought-after talent （clinical pharmacist） training bases. In terms of structural quality， the core indicator compliance rate for hospital-level training systems exceeded 80%， the rate of special fund utilization for designated purposes reached 80.13%， and the overall compliance rate for software and hardware facilities surpassed 88%. A total of 1 348 preceptors were employed across the training bases， among whom those with senior professional titles and full-time specialist clinical pharmacists as lead preceptors accounted for 62.91% and 94.36%， respectively. Regarding process quality， the compliance rate for “establishment of clinical practice teaching groups in accordance with regulations during clinical department rotations” was 85.19%， and 79.80% and 76.09% of the bases were found to implement strict confidentiality in theoretical examinations and meet the required scale of assessment cases， respectively. However， formal documents of corresponding training management regulations were formulated in only 57.91% of the bases， and the completeness and standardization rate of training manual completion was merely 47.47%. In addition， considerable disparities in quality management levels were observed among provinces， with issues in training process quality being particularly prominent. CONCLUSIONS The management system， hardware facilities， and preceptor staffing of clinical pharmacist training bases in China are relatively well-established， yet notable variations in quality management exist among training bases across different provinces.

Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare autoimmune bleeding disorder. Its occurrence secondary to hepatobiliary malignancies is even rarer, and without timely diagnosis and treatment, the mortality rate is extremely high. There is a need to raise awareness of this disease. This report describes a case of a 70-year-old female patient diagnosed with AHA 2 months after surgery for cholangiocarcinoma, admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College in October 2022. The patient presented with subcutaneous hematoma in both lower limbs. Coagulation function tests showed a markedly prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of 74.5 seconds, with no correction in the APTT mixing test. Coagulation factor assays revealed a severely reduced coagulation factor VIII activity (FVIII:C) of 0.3%, and an inhibitor titer of 25.6 BU/mL was detected. After ruling out other potential causes, the patient was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma-associated AHA. With chemotherapy to control the primary tumor, alongside hemostatic and immunosuppressive therapy for inhibitor eradication, AHA was brought under control. The patient had no further coagulation abnormalities or bleeding, enabling timely and full-course chemotherapy for cholangiocarcinoma and significantly improving survival and quality of life. Therefore, in patients with malignancies who present with spontaneous bleeding or unusual bleeding following surgery, trauma, or invasive procedures, clinicians should be alert to the possibility of secondary AHA. Timely diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve prognosis.

Objective To analyze the trends and changes in the burden of chronic kidney dis-ease(CKD)in China from 1990 to 2021.Methods Data related to the burden of CKD in China from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease(GBD)Study public database were downloaded.Descriptive analyses were conducted using indicators such as age-standardized incidence rates,mortality rates,years of life lost(YLL)rates,years lived with disability(YLD)rates,and disability-adjusted life years(DALY)rates.The Joinpoint regression model was employed to analyze the trends in CKD.The Nordpred model was used to predict the standardized mortality rates,prevalence rates,and inci-dence rates of CKD in China over the next 20 years.Results The age-standardized incidence rate of CKD in China increased from 147.29 per 100,000 in 1990 to 163.74 per 100,000 in 2021,while the age-standardized prevalence rates,mortality rates,YLL rates,YLD rates,and DALY rates all ex-hibited downward trends.The incidence and prevalence of CKD were higher in Chinese women than in men,while mortality rates and DALY rates were lower in women than in men.The burden of CKD increased with age.It is estimated that by 2045,the incidence and prevalence of CKD in China will continue to rise,but the standardized mortality rate and standardized prevalence rate will decline.Conclusion Based on the current status and trends in the burden of CKD in China,implementing precise health management for different populations can help reduce the burden of CKD in China.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

This study provides a comprehensive review of the development and achievements in the field of oral genetic disorders research in China. Since the 1950s, Chinese scholars have progressed from epidemiological surveys to the elucidation of molecular mechanisms and functional genomics, marking a transition from macro-level observations to micro-level analyses. The research focuses on three major categories: cleft lip and palate, dental developmental anomalies, and rare hereditary oral diseases. Several critical pathogenic genes have been identified, and their molecular mechanisms and phenotypic characteristics elucidated. This paper summarizes representative findings, analyzes current challenges, and outlines future research directions, aiming to provide theoretical support for advancing both basic research and clinical translation in the field of oral genetics in China.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.
