OBJECTIVE To construct ensemble learning models for predicting high-use days of budesonide based on meteorological factors, thereby providing reference for hospital pharmacy management. METHODS Meteorological data for 2024 and outpatient budesonide usage data from the jurisdiction of Sanming Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine were collected. High-use days were defined as the 75th percentile of outpatient budesonide usage, and a corresponding dataset was established. The prediction task was formulated as a classification problem, and three ensemble learning models were developed: Random Forest, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier. Model performance was evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and log-loss. Model interpretability was analyzed using Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP). RESULTS The Histogram-based Gradient Boosting Classifier achieved the best performance (accuracy=0.75, F1-score=0.48), followed by XGBoost (accuracy=0.74, F1-score=0.43) and Random Forest (accuracy=0.72, F1-score=0.22). SHAP results suggested that the prediction results of the last two models have the highest correction. CONCLUSIONS Ensemble learning models can effectively predict high-use days of budesonide, with the Histogram- based Gradient Boosting Classifier demonstrating the best predictive performance. Low temperature, high humidity, and low atmospheric pressure show significant positive impacts on the prediction of daily budesonide usage.

Objective:To explore the etiological rules of multifactorial refractory infertility patients by association analysis.Methods:A total of 283 patients with refractory infertility met the inclusion criteria from January 2019 to December 2021 in Nanping People's Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,were analyzed retrospectively.Using the Apriori algorithm,association rule analysis was performed on 7 etiological fac-tors:fallopian tube obstruction(FTO),intrauterine adhesions(IUA),ovarian dysfunction[diminished ovarian re-serve(DOR),premature ovarian insufficiency(POI)],polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS),endometriosis(EMT),adenomyosis(AM)and thin endometrium(TE).Further stratified analysis was performed to assess the combina-tions of causes based on the severity of 4 major factors(EMT,FTO,IUA and DOR/POI).Results:①Among 283 patients,EMT(59.0%)and FTO(50.5%)were identified as the most frequent etiological factors,significantly more prevalent than the other causes(P=0.0000,P<α').②The 5 most common etiological combinations were:FTO with EMT,PCOS with EMT,AM with FTO,DOR/POI with EMT,and AM with EMT.③After stratified analysis,it was found that the following combination of causes was ranked in the top three:with EMT stages I-IV being highly associated with FTO;the degree of merger between low stage with PCOS is high,while the degree of merger be-tween high stage with AM and DOR/POI is high.Different degrees of IUA are highly associated with EMT,FTO and DOR/POI,while severe IUA also being highly associated with TE.Both unilateral and bilateral FTO have a high degree of merger with EMT and AM.DOR and POI have a high degree of merger with EMT,FTO and AM.Conclusions:EMT and FTO are the main causes of refractory infertility.There are correlations among the causes combinations.The etiological factors combined with different stages of endometriosis are also different.These findings underscore the importance of a comprehensive diagnostic framework to address multifactorial etiologies and reduce missed diagnoses.

Objective To study the changes in peripheral blood T lymphocytes in patients with ankylosing spondylitis and their correlation with the disease's severity and prognosis.Methods We selected 120 patients with ankylosing spondylitis treated between January 2020 and March 2023 as the research group and 120 healthy people who had medical examinations in the same period as the health group.We detected the changes in CD4+,CD8+and CD4+/CD8+values of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets with flow cytometry,compared the differences in T lymphocyte subsets between the two groups,and analyzed the correlation with the disease severity of the patients.All the 120 patients with ankylosing spondylitis were followed up for 6 months after treatment to assess their prognosis.General information and T lymphocyte sub-groups CD4+,CD8+level,CD4+/CD8+value changes were compared among patients with different prognosis.We analyzed the value of T lymphocyte sub-groups in predicting the prognosis of patients with ankylosing spondylitis.Results In the research group CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were lower but CD8 1 was higher than those in the healthy group(P<0.05).CD4+and CD4+/CD8 were lower but CD8+was higher in patients with advanced ankylosing spondylitis than in early and mid-term patients(P<0.05).The ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of CD4+,CD8+,and CD4+/CD8+combined diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis patients was 0.878,with higher diagnostic sensitivity than that of the single diagnosis(P<0.05).In the poor prognosis group,CD8+was higher than that in the excellent prognosis group,but CD4+and CD4+/CD8 value were lower than the latter(P<0.05).The results of Pearson test showed that CD4+and CD4+/CD8+were negatively correlated with the prognosis of patients with ankylosing spondylitis(r=-0.568,-0.656,P<0.001).CD8+was positively correlated with the prognosis of patients with ankylosing spondylitis(r=0.623,P<0.001).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of the combined diagnosis of CD4+,CD8+and CD4+/CD8+for ankylosing spondylitis patients was 0.910,and the diagnostic sensitivity was higher than that of single diagnosis(P<0.05).Conclusion The abnormal levels of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets in patients with ankylosing spondylitis are closely related to the severity and prognosis of the disease,and can be used as a reference indicator for diagnosing the severity and prognosis of ankylosing spondylitis.

OBJECTIVE
To explore the application of HL60-pNL3.2 reporter gene assay in pyrogen detection of live attenuated varicella vaccine, inactivated influenza vaccine and lyophilized live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine.
METHODS
According to the publication draft named as "in vitro pyrogen test(reporter gene assay)" in Chinese Pharmacopoeia, maximum valid dilution(MVD) of three kinds of vaccines was calculated, and the interference test was conducted to explore whether these vaccines interfere with the pyrogen determination. According to the general rule 9101 from Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020, the assay in the pyrogen detection of the three vaccines was validated, using the methods to determine the pyrogen content of three vaccines.
RESULTS
The MVD of live attenuated varicella vaccine, inactivated influenza vaccine and lyophilized live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine respectively were 1 000, 200 and 1 000 times. The recovery rates of endotoxin(LPS) in the three kinds of vaccine were between 52.5% and 110.1%. The methodological validation results showed that the method could be used for the determination of pyrogens in three vaccines, and the correlation coefficient(R2) between LPS concentration and its chemical light intensity(RLU value) was > 0.98, the recovery rates were between 76.4% and 192.8% when LPS concentration was between 1 and 250 EU·mL–1. The coefficient of variation of measured results was less than 25% when LPS concentration was more than 5 EU·mL–1. The limit of detection and the limit of quantitation were between 0.05 and 0.13 EU·mL–1. Then, the pyrogen of these vaccines was determined by HL60-pNL3.2 reporter gene assay, and the pyrogen concentration all was less than contaminant limit concentration.
CONCLUSION
HL60-pNL3.2 reporter gene assay has the advantages of no animal, simple and rapid operation, with wide pyrogen spectrum and can quantitative pyrogen, which can be used to detect pyrogen of live attenuated varicella vaccine, inactivated influenza vaccine and lyophilized live attenuated hepatitis A vaccine.
