ObjectiveTo investigate the status and influencing factors of the continuity of care needs in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm hemorrhage. MethodsFrom January, 2022 to April, 2025, 121 patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm hemorrhage admitted to the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were selected. A questionnaire survey was conducted using general information questionnaire and continuity of care needs questionnaire. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of continuity of care needs. ResultsA total of 121 questionnaires were distributed, with 115 returned (95.04%). The scores of continuity of care needs were with an average score of (100.54±6.97). Statistically significant differences were observed in scores of continuity of care needs among patients with different ages, education levels, primary family caregivers, preoperative Hunt-Hess grades, number of comorbid diseases, whether they received postoperative rehabilitation training and availability of nearby healthcare services (|F| > 8.104, |t| > 2.651, P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level, primary family caregiver, preoperative Hunt-Hess grade, number of comorbid diseases and availability of nearby healthcare services were all influencing factors for the continuity of care needs in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm hemorrhage (|t| > 1.703, P < 0.05). ConclusionThe need for continuous care in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms is influenced by factors such as educational level, primary family caregivers, preoperative Hunt-Hess grade, number of comorbid diseases and accessibility to nearby healthcare services. Medical staff should comprehensively consider patients' specific conditions and actual needs to provide targeted continuous care services.

OBJECTIVE To formulate the Expert Consensus on the Implementation and Management of Drug Selection for Centralized Volume-Based Procurement in Medical Institutions of Guangxi (hereinafter referred to as the “ Consensus ”), and to provide decision-making support and practical guidance for the drug selection and management of centralized volume-based procurement (hereinafter referred to as “centralized procurement”) drugs in medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi. METHODS A systematic review was conducted on the materials from previous batches of centralized procurement implemented in Guangxi. A comprehensive search was carried out for drug-related works and books, along with a systematic collation of guidelines on drug selection, expert consensus on centralized procurement, and policy documents. Through three rounds of specialized seminars, combined with existing evidence-based data and the practical drug selection experiences of medical institutions at various levels, this Consensus was formulated after thorough discussion and successive rounds of revision. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The Consensus systematically outlines the three key stages in the implementation of centralized procurement in medical institutions: procurement volume reporting, confirmation of agreed procurement volume, and procurement and usage implementation. It proposes drug selection strategies for centralized procurement bas ed on multiple dimensions, including specifications, dosage forms, packaging materials, fill volume, and manufacturing enterprises. In response to practical challenges encountered in the selection process, corresponding countermeasures are proposed, such as establishing a regularized information reserve mechanism, strengthening information technology support, and implementing categorized selection approaches. The Consensus advocates for medical institutions to construct an integrated “policy, data, and quality” decision-making system to promote full-cycle management of centralized procurement. This Consensus will provide scientific and practical guidance for medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi in the drug selection of centralized procurement, facilitating the smooth implementation and sustainable development of centralized procurement policies at the institutional level.

Objective To establish a highly efficient and sensitive technical system for the identification and analysis of platycodin-type saponins, systematically compare the differences in platycodin-type saponins among Platycodon grandiflorum from different producing areas, and provide scientific references for the screening of high-quality Platycodon grandiflorum resources, authenticity evaluation, and construction of standardized quality control systems. Methods A total of 45 batches of P. grandiflorum medicinal materials from 3 producing areas (Anhui, Henan, and Jilin, with 15 batches per area) were selected as research objects. Qualitative identification and semi-quantitative analysis of saponin components were performed based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS) technology. Meanwhile, two multivariate statistical methods, principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), were combined to analyze the differences in platycodin-type saponins of Platycodon grandiflorus from different producing areas. Results A total of 28 saponin components were identified from Platycodon grandiflorus of the three producing areas. PCA results showed that there were minor differences in platycodin-type saponins between Henan Platycodon grandiflorus and Jilin Platycodon grandiflorus, while Anhui P. grandiflorum exhibited significant differences from both. PLS-DA further screened 15 major differential compounds. Among them, the contents of 6 components including 3''-O-acetylpolygalacin D2 and platycodin H in Anhui Platycodon grandiflorus were higher than those in Henan and Jilin Platycodon grandiflorus; platycodigenic acid A had the highest content in Jilin Platycodon grandiflorus; the contents of platycodin D3, polygalacin J, and polygalacin D were relatively higher in Henan Platycodon grandiflorus. Conclusion This study clarified the characteristic differences in core components of Platycodon grandiflorus from the three major producing areas, which provided an important theoretical basis for the screening of high-quality Platycodon grandiflorus resources, elucidation of the mechanism underlying its authenticity, and construction of a standardized quality control system.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect and mechanism of Wendan Ningxin granules (WNG) on susceptibility to atrial fibrillation (AF) in mice with inflammatory injury. Methods100 C57BL/6 mice were divided into a blank control group, a model group, a low-dose WNG group (2.34 g·kg-1·d-1), a high-dose WNG group (4.68 g·kg-1·d-1), and an amiodarone positive control group (0.091 g·kg-1·d-1), with 20 mice in each group. Except for the blank control group, mice in other groups received intraperitoneal injections of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish an inflammatory injury model. Treatment groups received continuous intragastric administration of their respective interventions for four weeks. During the fourth week, the treatment groups received LPS injections concurrently with their treatments. The blank control and model groups received distilled water (10 mL·kg-1·d-1) by gavage, with a gavage volume of 10 mL·kg-1 for all groups, once daily. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Sirius red staining were used to observe atrial tissue morphology and fibrosis degree. Immunohistochemistry was used to assess the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in mouse atrial tissue. Electrophysiological detection was performed using a multi-channel electrophysiology mapping system to measure AF inducibility, AF duration, and atrial effective refractory period (AERP). High-resolution optical mapping was used to measure action potential duration (APD) dispersion, conduction heterogeneity index, and calcium transient (CaT) dispersion. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect mRNA expression of proteins related to diastolic calcium leakage in mouse atria: Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(CaMKⅡ), ryanodine receptor 2(RyR2), sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA), and sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX). Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression of CaMKII, RyR2, SERCA, and NCX proteins in myocardial tissue from each group. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure serum levels of inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). ResultsPathological staining results showed that compared with the blank control group, the model group exhibited disrupted atrial tissue structure, inflammatory cell infiltration, atrial fibrosis, and diffuse infiltration of numerous brown α-SMA positive cells in the atrial interstitium (P<0.01). AF could be induced by electrical stimulation with a longer duration. AERP was shortened, while APD dispersion, conduction heterogeneity index, and CaT dispersion were increased (P<0.01). The expression of proteins associated with diastolic calcium leakage, including CaMKⅡ, RyR2, and NCX1, showed elevated mRNA and protein levels, whereas SERCA2a mRNA and protein expression decreased (P<0.05). Serum levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α were elevated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, intervention with WNG alleviated cardiac structural damage, reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, improved atrial fibrosis, and reduced the diffuse infiltration of α-SMA positive cells (P<0.01). AF inducibility and AF duration upon electrical stimulation were significantly reduced (P<0.05), AERP was prolonged (P<0.05), mRNA and protein expression of CaMKⅡ, RyR2, and NCX1-proteins associated with diastolic calcium leakage-were reduced, whilst mRNA and protein expression of SERCA2a increased (P<0.05), and serum levels of IL-1β and TNF-α were decreased (P<0.01). ConclusionBoth low‑ and high‑dose WNG can effectively reduce susceptibility to inflammation-related AF. The mechanism by which WNG reduce AF susceptibility may be related to regulating proteins involved in sarcoplasmic reticulum diastolic calcium leak, thereby improving cardiac electrical remodeling, and alleviating inflammation-induced myocardial fibrosis, thus improving cardiac structural remodeling.
5.Epidemiological characteristics of category C intestinal infectious diseases among children and adolescents in Shenzhen from 2012 to 2024 and the association with meteorological factors
Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(4):553-557
Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of category C intestinal infectious diseases among children and adolescents in Shenzhen from 2012 to 2024 and the association with meteorological factors, so as to provide a scientific basis for the targeted prevention and control of infectious diseases for children and adolescents.
Methods:
Using data from the "Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System" of the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System" covering the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2024, the study analyzed clinical and confirmed cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease, other infectious diarrhea, and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis among individuals aged 6-19 years old to describe demographic and temporal characteristics. It used Joinpoint regression to calculate the average annual percent change (AAPC) and annual percent change (APC) to analyze incidence trends, and Spearman s correlation was combined to generalize linear models so as to assess the association between category C intestinal infectious diseases and meteorological factors.
Results:
From 2012 to 2024, a cumulative total of 61 019 cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease among children and adolescents, 58 498 cases of other infectious diarrhea, and 6 377 cases of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis were reported. The AAPC in the incidence rates of these three diseases was 19.19%, 31.03% and 31.48 %, respectively(all P <0.05). Notably, the incidence of hand, foot, and mouth disease increased significantly after 2022 (APC= 133.66 %, P <0.01). The temporal distribution showed that hand,foot,and mouth disease was most prevalent in May,June and July (seasonal index of 2.39,3.64,1.97), other infectious diarrhea was most prevalent in February,March and December (seasonal index of 1.22,1.25,1.47), and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis peaked in September and October (seasonal index of 4.22,2.16). Monthly average temperature could increase the risk of hand,foot,and mouth disease( β = 0.18 ,95% CI =0.11-0.25); as monthly average wind speed increased, the incidence of other infectious diarrhea ( β =-0.86, 95% CI = -1.50 to -0.22) and acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis ( β =-1.32, 95% CI =-2.60 to -0.05) both decreased (all P < 0.05 ).
Conclusions
Among children and adolescents in Shenzhen, category C intestinal infectious diseases remain prevalent throughout the year;the number of reported hand, foot, and mouth disease cases has shown an upward trend in recent years.Temperature and wind speed significantly affect the number of reported cases of three types with category C intestinal infectious diseases.

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.

This article systematically reviews the current research status as well as diagnosis and treatment strategies of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Studies demonstrate that TCM, based on the "disease-syndrome combination" approach, exhibits multi-target advantages in alleviating symptoms of various GERD subtypes, promoting mucosal repair, regulating emotions, and facilitating the reduction of western medication. To address clinical challenges such as symptom overlap and limited therapeutic efficacy, strategies have been proposed including "treating different diseases with the same method" and integrated regulation based on viscera correlation. Future efforts should focus on elucidating the mechanisms of compound prescriptions, promoting TCM drug development under the "three-combination" evaluation framework that integrates TCM theory, human experience and clinical trial evidence, and optimizing integrated traditional and western medicine models to enhance GERD management.

epsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome triggered by infection, and its high mortality rate is closely associated with immune imbalance, particularly the imbalance in the differentiation of helper T cell (Th) cell subsets [Th1, Th2, Th17, regulatory T cell (Treg) ] . In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), with its characteristics of multi-component and multi-target actions, has demonstrated unique advantages in regulating Th cell differentiation and function, as well as correcting immune imbalances in sepsis, offering new perspectives for immunotherapy of sepsis. This review summarizes relevant studies on the regulation of Th cell differentiation for sepsis treatment by TCM monomers and active ingredients (such as Astragalus membranaceus , Scutellaria baicalensis , Coptis chinensis , Rheum palmatum , Ganoderma lucidum , Ginkgo biloba , and Cistanche deserticola ), the alcohol extract of Dai Baijie, and TCM formulas and preparations categorized as blood-activating and stasis-removing, purgative and laxative, warming and tonifying yang, and tonifying qi and nourishing yin. The results indicate that these TCM monomers, active ingredients, extracts, formulas, and preparations can regulate the Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg balance, target the differentiation balance of Th cell subsets, alleviate inflammatory responses, or improve immune suppression, thereby exerting therapeutic effects on sepsis.
