OBJECTIVE To develop the quality evaluation standard indicator system for hospital cough and wheeze pharmaceutical care clinic (CWPC) pharmacist training within the layered learning practice model (LLPM), and apply it in clinical practice. METHODS Our teaching team established an LLPM model to train cough and wheeze pharmacists, according to the actual conditions of our college. Using qualitative interview methods, expert questionnaires were compiled with literature research; the expert correspondence methods were employed to conduct two rounds of consultation with 10 domestic respiratory medicine experts, thus constructing an evaluation index system for the teaching quality of cough and wheeze pharmacists. The experts’ positive coefficient, authority coefficient, Kendall’s harmony coefficient, and the degree of concentration of opinions were calculated. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to determine the weight of each indicator within the index system. From June 2023 to June 2024, the teaching team enrolled 21 pharmacists in the training program. The teaching team assessed and scored the trial group (LLPM) and control group (traditional teaching model) based on the benefit indicators for pharmacists and patients in the evaluation index system, and compared the results. RESULTS This study explored the establishment of a training system for cough and wheeze pharmacists under the LLPM model, and initially established an evaluation index system using the Delphi method. In two rounds of Delphi method questionnaires, the recovery rate was 100%, with an authority coefficient exceeding 0.8, Kendall’s harmony coefficient ranging from 0.235 to 0.459, and all P-values being less than 0.05. Four primary (comprising trainee feedback, learning gains, behavioral improvements, and training performance), 12 secondary and 33 tertiary indicators were finalized. In the empirical evaluation, the results of the two groups showed a significant benefit to the pharmacists in the trial group. Specifically, the percentage of patients receiving corticosteroids for COPD or wheeze service patients per month (80.5%), an average increase in the number of cough and wheeze team service outpatient visits per month (compared to the same period of the previous year) of 14.8 visits per month, and the patient satisfaction score (4.9) were all significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The application of the LLPM in competency training for pharmacists specializing in cough and wheeze care yields multiple benefits and holds significant guiding value. The constructed training quality evaluation index system under this model is scientific and reliable.

Objective:To summarize the clinical features and genetic effects of cases of fetal chromosomal structural abnormalities caused by maternal complex chromosomal rearrangements (CCR).Methods:Three female CCR carriers referred to the Prenatal Diagnostic Center at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center, Guangzhou Medical University between October 2023 and June 2024 were retrospectively enrolled. Genetic analyses included chromosomal karyotyping, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and low-coverage whole-genome copy number variation (CNV) sequencing. Clinical features of the three cases with fetal chromosomal structural abnormalities caused by maternal CCR were systematically reviewed using descriptive statistics.Results:(1) Case 1: CNV sequencing identified an 11.95 Mb duplication at 1q43q44 region of chromosome (CNV of uncertain significance) and a 36.09 Mb deletion at 5p15.33p13.2 region of chromosome (pathogenic CNV) in the fetus (maternally inherited). Maternal karyotype was 46,XX,t(1;8;3;5)(q43;q22.1;q26.2;p13.2). The pregnancy was terminated after genetic counseling. (2) Case 2: Maternal karyotype 46,XX,t(3;20)(p25;q13.1),t(6;12)(q25.2;q21.2),ins(11;14)(q23;q24q13) was transmitted to the fetus [46,XX,ins(11;14)(q23;q24q13)mat]. CMA of the fetus showed no abnormalities and the pregnancy was continued after genetic counseling. (3) Case 3: CMA of the products of conception revealed a 71.59 Mb duplication at 2p24.3p11.2 (pathogenic CNV). Maternal karyotype was 46,XX,der(2)t(2;3)(q21;q23)ins(11;2)(p13;p24p11.2),der(3)t(2;3),der(11)ins(11;2). The abnormal chromosome 2 segment in products of conception was maternally inherited.Conclusions:All three cases of fetal/abortus chromosomal abnormalities originated from maternal CCR. Early combined cytogenetic and molecular prenatal diagnosis is critical for CCR carriers during pregnancy.

BACKGROUND:As a unique structure of the cervical spine,the occurrence,development and progression of the uncovertebral joint directly affect the stability and range of motion of the cervical spine,and are also closely related to the pathogenesis of cervical spondylosis.A thorough understanding of the developmental characteristics of the uncovertebral joint is of great significance for the pathogenesis,diagnosis,and treatment of cervical spondylosis. OBJECTIVE:By using imaging and three-dimensional reconstruction technology to measure and observe the cervical uncinate process-related angle in a large sample of different age groups,the aim is to reveal the characteristics of its changes with age and vertebral growth,as well as its relationship with cervical spine stability. METHODS:Using a retrospective research design,we collected 1 447 cases of raw CT imaging data that meet the study requirements for complete cervical spine segments.The raw data were imported into Mimics 21.0 software in DICOM format for post-processing and measurement of angle of uncinate process and sagittal angle of uncinate process.The data were grouped based on gender,age,and side. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)With the increase of vertebral sequence,the angle of uncinate process increased in a V-shaped shape,and the lowest peak was at C5.The overall population showed a sharp peak with the increase of age,and the peak value mostly occurred in the age range of 30-39 years.(2)The sagittal angle of the uncinate process increased like a fishhook with the increase of the vertebral sequence,and the overall angle of the uncinate process increased with age,and the peak value mostly occurred in the age range of 20-29 years.The uncinate process angle and sagittal angle showed only partial significant differences between sides and genders(P<0.05).(3)It is concluded that the angle of the uncinate process increased with the increase of vertebral sequence in a V-shaped manner.The sagittal angle of the uncinate process increases like a fish hook with increasing vertebral order,while the two angles generally peak with increasing age.The angle of the uncinate process is about 131°,which may be closely related to the stability of the cervical spine,while the sagittal angle of the uncinate process is about 14°,and its function may play a certain role in limiting the excessive rotation of the cervical spine.
