OBJECTIVE Identify the incentive and constraint factors of artificial intelligence （AI） application in the pharmaceutical field， and promote the application of AI in the field of pharmacy. METHODS Based on the technology acceptance model （TAM）， technology-organization-environment （TOE） framework， and diffusion of innovation theory （DOI）， a TAM-TOE-DOI integrated framework was constructed through a four-stage research process of “theoretical review → dimension mapping → mechanism integration → proposition development”. Combining the analytical pathways of the above three theories in AI application in pharmacy with the integration mechanisms and core propositions of the TAM-TOE-DOI， literature review and deductive reasoning were employed to systematically identify the incentive and constraint factors of AI application in pharmacy from three levels：micro （TAM）， meso （TOE）， and macro （DOI）， and to propose optimization strategies. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS At the micro level， the efficiency transformation and quality improvement brought by AI technology were the main incentive factors for perceived usefulness， while technological complexity and algorithmic opacity were the main constraint factors for perceived ease of use. At the meso level， the completeness of technological infrastructure， the strength of top management support and innovation climate， as well as external institutional pressure and competitive driving forces were the core incentive factors， whereas scarcity of organizational resources and talent shortage were the main constraint factors. At the macro level， relative advantage and observability were typical incentive factors， while technological complexity was a typical constraint factor. China’s health administration， medical insurance authorities， and other relevant departments should coordinate efforts at the macro， meso， and micro levels to advance AI application in pharmacy： optimizing human-computer interaction and implementing tiered training programs at the micro level； reinforcing organizational support systems and capacity building at the meso level； dismantling data barriers and building social trust at the macro level. Differentiated implementation pathways should be developed for medical institutions at different tiers.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of a Chinese pedigree affected with Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) due to a truncating variant of ALPK3 gene. METHODS: A 44-year-old male admitted to Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province on December 29, 2018 was selected as the study subject. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was carried out, and candidate variant was interpreted by following the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). For ALPK3 was considered an autosomal recessive gene, the WES results was considered insufficient to explain his phenotype. In April 2023, the proband's WES data were re-analyzed using updated annotation pipelines, and peripheral blood samples were collected from his first-degree relatives (mother and brother) for Sanger sequencing validation. Conservation analysis and protein structural modeling were performed to assess the impact of the variant. Clinical evaluation and genetic counseling were provided to the proband's family members. Relevant literature on ALPK3tv-induced HCM patients were searched in Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, CNKI, and PubMed database using "ALPK3" and "hypertrophic cardiomyopathy" as keywords. Clinical characteristics of HCM patients with heterozygous ALPK3tv variants were summarized and compared with the clinical characteristics of HCM patients with positive sarcomere-associated gene variants (SARC+). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province Affiliated to Wenzhou Medical University (Ethics No.: K20230314). RESULTS: The proband was a 44-year-old male who was transferred to our institution on December 29, 2018 due to "chest tightness and pain for 6 months, exacerbated for 2 days". Emergency coronary angiography was performed, which led to a preliminary diagnosis of "acute coronary syndrome", and the patient was admitted to the Cardiology Department for treatment. Based on electrocardiogram and echocardiogram findings, the diagnosis was revised as HCM. The patient's condition has stabilized post-coronary angiography, and he was discharged with improved condition. On January 2019, WES was conducted to determine the etiology of the proband's HCM. WES results identified a novel heterozygous c.2156dupC (p.Pro720ThrfsTer53) truncating variant in the ALPK3 gene. At that time, the inheritance pattern could not explain the phenotype. In 2022, a literature indicated that heterozygous ALPK3tv could lead to autosomal dominant HCM. Consequently, in April 2023, the proband's whole-exome data were re-annotated, revealing changes in the transcript and protein versions, with the updated site annotated as ALPK3 (NM_020778.5): c.1550dupC (p.Pro518ThrfsTer53). Sanger sequencing confirmed that the proband's mother and brother also carried this variant. The mother exhibited obstructive HCM, while the brother showed no related phenotype. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated conservation of this site across multiple species, and the variant has resulted in the loss of a protein domain. Based on ACMG guidelines, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. Literature review and Bayesian calculation further elevated the pathogenicity rating, indicating that this variant was the cause of HCM in the patient. Literature study revealed distinctions between HCM caused by this variant type and SARC+ HCM. The age of onset among heterozygous ALPK3tv patients was delayed by approximately 10 years compared to SARC+ patients. Both forms of HCM exhibited a male predominance, which was particularly marked in individuals with ALPK3tv. Electrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy was more prevalent in heterozygous ALPK3tv patients than in SARC+ patients. The incidence of apical or concentric hypertrophy patterns was higher in heterozygous ALPK3tv patients compared to asymmetric septal hypertrophy, which predominated in SARC+ patients. ALPK3tv patients exhibited lower penetrance and later onset compared to SARC+ patients. A positive correlation between left ventricular wall thickness and age was noted in female patients only. CONCLUSION In this pedigree, the proband has presented with HCM, characterized by echocardiographic evidence of apical left ventricular hypertrophy without significant outflow tract obstruction or extracardiac phenotypes. Although his mother and brother had carried the same heterozygous ALPK3 (NM_020778.5) c.1550dupC (p.Pro518ThrfsTer53), the mother exhibited severe obstructive HCM, while the brother was asymptomatic, suggesting incomplete or age-dependent penetrance within the family. This study has enriched the evidence for the pathogenicity of ALPK3tv among Chinese HCM pedigrees and underscored the importance of periodic literature reviews and genetic re-analysis for unresolved genetic testing results.

Objective To investigate the application of catheterization laboratory risk management in the interventional treatment of children with congenital heart disease(CHD),aiming to construct a comprehensive and practical risk management intervention plan to enhance treatment safety and child patient experience.Methods A total of 120 pediatric patients who underwent interventional treatment in the Pediatric Cardiovascular Department of the Interventional Center of Imaging and Nuclear Medicine,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022 were randomly divided into two groups(60 cases in each group).Child patients in control group received routine care,while child patients in observation group were subjected to a risk management strategy of the catheterization laboratory on the basis of control group,which included preoperative assessment,psychological intervention,intraoperative monitoring and prevention,stress management and postoperative care.Mental health status of the children,incidence of risk events and nursing disputes,as well as satisfaction of two groups were compared.Results Under the risk management strategy,the levels of anxiety and depression in observation group significantly decreased,with anxiety score dropping from(56.8±4.6)before treatment to(30.8±2.6)after treatment,and depression score falling from(55.8±2.5)to(31.4±1.6),demonstrating a significant improvement(P＜0.01).After implementing the risk management strategy,the incidence of risk events in observation group was notably lower than that in control group(5.0％vs.15.0％),and medical disputes were also significantly reduced(3.3％vs.11.7％).The overall satisfaction rate in observation group was 95.0％,significantly higher than 78.3％in control group(P=0.0012).Conclusion A comprehensive risk management plan can effectively reduce the incidence of risk events and medical disputes in the interventional treatment of pediatric CHD,significantly improving child patient satisfaction and mental health status.This confirms the vital role of risk management strategies in optimizing the treatment process,reducing adverse events,and enhancing doctor-patient harmony,providing clinical reference of safer interventional treatment services for children with CHD.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Hematological malignancy is a highly heterogeneous disease with complex biological characteristics and diverse clinical manifestations. Therefore, precise diagnosis and treatment are crucial and urgently needed. To further improve the accuracy of diagnosis and prognostication and to promote personalized therapy, artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly used. This study reviewed literature published in the last 5 years and summarized the application, benefits, and drawbacks of AI in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of hematologic malignancies. Although AI can effectively improve the accuracy of diagnosis and therapy, low-quality data, poor interpretability of the model, and limited clinical transformation have impeded its popularization and application. In the future, the clinical application of AI in hematologic malignancy can be accelerated by establishing standards for clinical data processing, integrating multimodal information for accurate diagnosis and prognostication, and conducting systematic clinical verification of model algorithms.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera in China from 2005 to 2024.Methods:A total of 2 066 cholera cases were included in the study, which were obtained from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System (CDPCIS) of China CDC. The information on cholera clusters was downloaded from the National Public Health Emergency Event Surveillance System (PHEESS) of China CDC. A total of 128 cholera clusters were included and analyzed in this study. The epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera were analyzed. The Jointpoint model was applied to analyze the incidence trend, and annual percentage change (APC) was also quantified.Results:From 2005 to 2024, a total of 2 066 cholera cases were reported, with an average of 103 cases reported annually. Specifically, the incidence showed a marked downward trend from 2004 to 2015 ( APC=-26.78%, P=0.006). During 2015-2024, the disease remained at low endemic levels, with an average of 18 reported cases annually ( APC=-2.68%, P=0.807). Cholera peak season was from May to October. A total of 24 provinces reported cholera cases, which were mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Fujian, Beijing, Jiangsu, Anhui, Guangdong, and Hainan provinces, accounting for 78.03% of the total cases. Pathogen surveillance indicated an alternating prevalence of Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 among laboratory-confirmed cases between 2005 and 2024. There was a disparity in the dominant serogroup of Vibrio cholerae by region. The results from 128 cholera clusters indicated that cholera outbreaks frequently occurred in rural banquets (64.84%), followed by regular restaurants (13.28%). Among these, 63 clusters (49.22%) with identified infection sources indicated that foodborne transmission (95.24%) was the primary mode of cholera transmission, which mainly through seafood and aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles, shrimp and shellfish. The characteristics of cholera clusters caused by Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 showed statistically significant differences in scale, attack rate, place of residence, setting, and infection source ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Cholera incidence has remained consistently low since 2015 in China, mainly in sporadic cases. Rural gatherings (e.g., wedding banquets) are the main settings for cholera clusters. The main infection sources are predominantly caused by cross-contamination due to improper processing practices of aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of non-invasive ultrasound hemodynamic monito-ring in critically ill neonates in plateau area(altitude＞2 500 m).Methods A total of 205 critically ill neo-nates admitted to the NICU of Qamdo People's Hospital from September 2023 to December 2024 were ran-domly divided into the control group(n=105)and the observation group(n=100)using a random number table.There was no statistically significant difference in the baseline data between the two groups(P＞0.05).The observation group underwent noninvasive ultrasonic hemodynamic monitoring within 12 hours of admis-sion,measuring corrected flow time(FTC),stroke volume(SV),cardiac index,systemic vascular resistance index(SVRI),and myocardial contractility index(SMII).The control group received conventional monito-ring.The treatment was adjusted based on the results.The above parameters were remeasured 4-8 hours af-ter treatment adjustment.Hospital stay and 28 d survival rate were compared between the two groups.Multi-ple linear regression and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the factors influencing hospital stay and 28 d survival rate,respectively.Results Compared to pre-treatment levels,the observation group showed significant post-treatment decreases in FTC[(364.03±47.70)ms vs.(414.09±52.20)ms]and SVRI[(1 521.00±186.93)dyn·s·(cm5)-1·(m2)-1 vs.(1 720.00±347.31)dyn·s·(cm5)-1·(m2)-1].Con-versely,significant increases were observed in SV[(5.23±0.66)mL vs.(5.09±0.88)mL],cardiac index[(3.35±1.17)L·min-1·(m2)-1 vs.(3.19±0.99)L·min-1·(m2)-1],and SMII[(0.56±0.10)W/m2 vs.(0.51±0.14)W/m2](P＜0.05).The observation group had a significantly shorter hospital stay than the control group[(11.53±3.61)d vs.(13.83±2.56)d,P＜0.05].The 28 d survival rate was higher in the ob-servation group(100.0％vs.98.1％),although the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that both gestational age and cardiac index were negatively correla-ted with the duration of hospital stay.Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that birth weight was a sig-nificant factor influencing the 28 d survival rate(OR=4.600,95％CI:2.465-10.654,P=0.001).Conclusion Non-invasive ultrasonic hemodynamic monitoring can facilitate early identification of hemodynamic alterations in critically ill neonates in platean area,which could guide treatment and potentially reducing hospital stay.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the midterm clinical efficacy of medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC) reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation with high-grade trochlear dysplasia. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was carried out among adult patients who underwent arthroscopically assisted MPFC reconstruction between January 2014 and December 2020. Dejour classification was evaluated to grade trochlear dysplasia; tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance and Insall-Salvati index were measured. Preoperative and postoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were compared, including International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Kujala score, Lysholm score and Tegner score. Information regarding returning-to-sport rate, re-instability events and complications was collected. Patellar tilt (PT), lateral patellar displacement (LPD) and bisect offset (BSO) ratio were measured based on axial computed tomography before and after surgery to assess the patellofemoral congruence. RESULTS: A total of 46 MPFC reconstructions in 43 patients were enrolled, including 16 male and 27 female. Mean age at surgery was (22.2±7.6) years (range: 14-44 years). Mean follow-up was (49.9±22.6) months (range: 18-102 months). The percentages of Dejour B, C and D dysplasia were 37.0% (17/46), 43.5% (20/46), and 19.6% (9/46), respectively. Mean Insall-Salvati index was 1.2±0.2 (range: 0.85-1.44), and mean TT-TG distance was (19.6±3.5) mm (range: 10.6-28.7 mm). At latest follow-up, there were significant improvements in all PROMs (P < 0.001): IKDC score, from 56.3±15.1 to 86.2±8.1; Kujala score, from 58.9±15.6 to 92.6±5.4; Lysholm score, from 63.7±15.0 to 94.0±5.7; Tegner score, from 3.1±1.4 to 4.7±1.4, and there were no significant differences in the improvements of the scores between the patients with Dejour B, C and D dysplasia. Overall, ninety percent of the patients returned to their preoperative sports level. One patient reported a postoperative subluxation, while no cases of infection, limited range of motion or patella fracture were observed. PT, LPD and BSO ratio were all significant altered (P < 0.001) after MPFC reconstruction. CONCLUSION Arthroscopically assisted MPFC reconstruction yielded satisfactory midterm clinical results for recurrent patellar dislocation with high-grade trochlear dysplasia. No significant differences of improvements in knee function were observed among the three types of high-grade trochlear dysplasia.

Objective:Proteins are closely associated with the development, progression, and immunotherapy of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma（HNSCC）. However, few clinical models utilize proteomics to predict prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy. In this study, we developed a protein prognostic model（PPM） to stratify survival outcomes and differential immunotherapy responses in HNSCC patients. Methods:Based on proteomic profiling, we constructed a PPM comprising 11 protein markers. Patients were classified into high-and low-risk groups according to PPM scores. The prognostic value of risk scores was evaluated using Cox regression analysis, and predictive accuracy was assessed via time-dependent receiver operating characteristic（ROC） curves. Additionally, we analyzed treatment responses to PD1/CTLA4 immunotherapy in PD1-or CTLA4-positive patients across risk groups. Results:Cox regression confirmed the risk score as an independent prognostic factor（HR=1.161, 95%CI 1.112-1.213, P<0.001）, with high-risk patients exhibiting significantly poorer survival than low-risk counterparts. The model demonstrated robust predictive accuracy, with 1-year and 3-year time-dependent ROC areas under the curve（AUC） of 0.713 and 0.707, respectively. In PD1/CTLA4-positive subgroups, low-risk patients showed superior immunotherapy responses compared to high-risk patients. Conclusion:The PPM can provide reliable prognostic stratification and preliminary guidance for immunotherapy in HNSCC. However, further clinical studies and basic experiments are needed for further verification.
