OBJECTIVE To formulate Guidelines for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics （ 2026 edition ） in response to the challenges faced by such clinics in China， including uneven development， large discrepancies in service specifications， insufficient patient awareness， and limited medical insurance coverage. METHODS Led by the Pharmaceutical Affairs Professional Committee of the Chinese Hospital Association， the Evidence-based Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association， and the Hospital Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Cross-strait Medical and Health Exchange Association， a total of 19 domestic hospital pharmacy experts were organized. Through a systematic review of national policies and literature research， current practical experience was summarized. Consensus on the contents of the guidelines was reached after in-depth discussions. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS The guidelines covered five sections： definition and connotation of pharmacist-managed clinics， establishment requirements， implementation and management， post competency， and practical research. Firstly， the definition and connotation included three operational forms of pharmacist-managed clinics （independent mode， physician-pharmacist joint mode， and online pharmacist-managed clinic mode） and classified service modes （specialty-specific， drug-specific， and disease-specific pharmacist-managed clinics）. The establishment requirements were further refined， covering system construction （pharmaceutical service management system， quality control and assessment mechanism）， personnel qualifications （professional credentials， continuing education and professional training， etc）， service recipients， as well as service venues and facilities. Subsequently， the implementation and management of pharmacist-managed clinics were proposed， involving service procedures， intervention measures， documentation and records， patient education and follow-up， humanistic care， as well as risk management and quality control. Finally， post competency encompassed the competency requirements for pharmacists providing services in pharmacist-managed clinics， as well as the suggestions on teaching methods； practical research encouraged the conduct of high-quality pharmaceutical practice in the setting of pharmacist-managed clinics. The guidelines provide valuable guidance for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics in China in terms of establishment， management， teaching， and research， fill the guideline gap in this field， and can promote the high-quality development of pharmacist-managed clinics.

3CL protease (3CLpro) of SARS-CoV-2 is a pivotal enzyme required in coronavirus replication and transcription. Its highly conserved structure and the absence of homologous proteins in the host make it an ideal target for broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus drug development. In this work, we systematically investigated and compared the binding modes and dynamic properties of the four stereoisomers of a pyridyl-urea diyne ester (PyDU) molecule with two chiral centers within the 3CLpro active site. Through molecular docking, MD simulations, MM/GBSA binding free-energy calculations, and DCCM analysis, all four stereoisomers were stabilized primarily by hydrophobic packing. Among them, the (R,S) isomer exhibited the best overall performance, including docking score, binding free-energy components, and key residue interactions. The (R,S) and (S,R) isomers also enhanced the cooperative motions around the binding pocket, while the (R,S) isomer further modulated the flexibility of domain III, which may influence 3CLpro dimerization. Conversely, the (S,S) isomer exhibited the weakest affinity due to insufficient hydrophobic contact. By innovatively integrating chirality, binding energy and protein dynamical features, we revealed the dual role of chirality in modulating affinity and dynamic responses, which provides a theoretical basis for the chiral-guided design of coronavirus inhibitors.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiologic characteristics of avian influenza virus and the molecular characteristics and genetic evolution of H9N2 subtype avian influenza viruses in the live poultry markets in Fujian province in 2021-2023.Methods:Six types of specimens were collected from five cities in Fujian province. The specimens were subjected to nucleic acid detection for influenza A viruses, subtypes H5, H7, and H9 by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the results were analyzed statistically with χ2 test. Specimens with Ct value less than 31 were screened for targeted amplification and next-generation sequencing of the hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) genes. Reference sequences were downloaded from the databases, and the characteristics of molecular variation and genetic evolution were analyzed by using bioinformatics softwares. Results:From 2021 to 2023, a total of 1 853 specimens were collected from five cities, with a positive rate of 50.94% for influenza A viruses, including 684 specimens of H9 subtype, 23 specimens of H5 subtype, 1 specimen of H7 subtype, 28 specimens of H5 and H9 subtype, 1 specimen of H7 and H9 subtype, and 207 specimens of unclassified A-type. There were significant differences in the positive detection rates of influenza A viruses in different cities( χ2=461.82, P<0.001). Statistically significant differences in influenza A virus positivity rates across years and quarters( χ2=12.26, P=0.002; χ2=30.12, P<0.001), with higher rates of 56.39% and 55.34% in the first and third quarters, respectively. And the differences in the positive rates of influenza A viruses in different types of specimens were statistically significant( χ2=23.05, P<0.001), with specimens on the cage surface having a positivity rate of 56.09%, which was the highest of all types of specimens. A total of 24 strains of HA and NA genes of H9N2 subtype were fully sequenced. Compared with the sequence of NCBI database, the highest identity of HA gene nucleotide sequences ranged from 97.03% to 99.87%, and the highest identity of NA gene nucleotide sequences ranged from 97.50% to 99.78%.Twenty-three strains with both HA and NA genes belonged to the G57 genotype in the Y280-like evolutionary branch of the Eurasian lineage, and one strain belonged to the Y439-like evolutionary branch of the Eurasian lineage. The cleavage sites of all the strains showed the characteristic of low pathogenicity, and most strains had receptor binding sites characterized by avian-derived and human receptors. Conclusions:The overall positive rate of avian influenza viruses in live poultry markets in Fujian province was relatively high, especially in the first and third quarters, with H9 subtype accounting for the main proportion. Most of H9N2 subtype belonged to the Y280-like G57 genotype with a small number of Y439-like evolutionary branches, suggesting the possibility of genetic recombination and the risk of human infection. Thus, surveillance of avian influenza viruses in the live poultry markets as well as mutation analysis should continue to be strengthened.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics and key points of diagnosis and treatment in children with TCF3::HLF fusion gene-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:A case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 8 children diagnosed with TCF3::HLF positive ALL at the Hematology Center of Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University and the Hematology Oncology Department of Henan Children′s Hospital between January 2019 and January 2024 were collected. Descriptive analysis was performed on their clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment regimens and prognosis.Results:The cohort included 8 children (3 males and 5 females) with the age of 5.5 (3.5, 7.0) years. Bone pain was the primary clinical manifestation in 4 cases, with multi-site skeletal involvement in 4 cases, hypercalcemia in 5 cases, and coagulation abnormalities in 6 cases. Immunophenotyping revealed common B-cell lineage with myeloid markers in 7 cases and common B-cell phenotype in 1 case. All 8 children were positive for the TCF3::HLF fusion gene. Regarding treatment, 1 case abandoned therapy after diagnosis, while the remaining 7 cases received chemotherapy following the Chinese Children′s Leukemia Group-ALL2018 high-risk protocol. Only 1 case achieved minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity by day 33 of induction therapy. Among the 3 cases with MRD negativity before consolidation therapy, 1 case achieved it via conventional chemotherapy, while 2 cases required additional agents (venetoclax or blinatumomab). One case failed to achieve MRD negativity after consolidation therapy and later discontinued treatment (survival periods: 7months).Of the 4 cases who achieved MRD negativity after consolidation, 2 cases received conventional chemotherapy and 2 cases achieved negativity following chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CART). All 4 cases underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Two cases in the CART combined with HSCT group survived as of the last follow-up (survival periods: 22 and 13 months). In the conventional chemotherapy combined HSCT group, 1 case relapsed and died (survival: 38 months), and 1 case died from transplant complications (survival: 11 months). The other 2 cases achieved MRD negativity before consolidation therapy but did not receive regular subsequent chemotherapy. After MRD recurrence, they underwent CART therapy without HSCT and remained alive at the last follow-up (survival periods: 49 and 12 months).Conclusions:Children with TCF3::HLF positive ALL often present with bone destruction accompanied by hypercalcemia and coagulopathy at initial diagnosis. This subtype of ALL shows poor response to conventional chemotherapy regimens, characterized by low early remission rates and high relapse risk even after HSCT. Better therapeutic outcomes have been observed with small molecule targeted drugs, immunotherapy and CART therapy.

The coefficients of variation for both intra-day and inter-day imprecision were less than 10% while recovery rates ranged from 92.60% to 99.10%. Matrix effect deviations were all within the range of 6% and carryover was negligible. Conclusions:In this study, the established method of magnetic bead-based extraction followed by in situ derivatization combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry performed well, and could be further applied to the detection of free testosterone concentration in childbearing age women.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active moiety of both mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS), serves as a primary immunosuppressant for maintaining solid organ transplants. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) enhances treatment outcomes through tailored approaches. This study aimed to develop an evidence-based guideline for MPA TDM, facilitating its rational application in clinical settings. The guideline plan was drawn from the Institute of Medicine and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Using the Delphi method, clinical questions and outcome indicators were generated. Systematic reviews, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence quality evaluations, expert opinions, and patient values guided evidence-based suggestions for the guideline. External reviews further refined the recommendations. The guideline for the TDM of MPA (IPGRP-2020CN099) consists of four sections and 16 recommendations encompassing target populations, monitoring strategies, dosage regimens, and influencing factors. High-risk populations, timing of TDM, area under the curve (AUC) versus trough concentration (C₀), target concentration ranges, monitoring frequency, and analytical methods are addressed. Formulation-specific recommendations, initial dosage regimens, populations with unique considerations, pharmacokinetic-informed dosing, body weight factors, pharmacogenetics, and drug‍-‍drug interactions are covered. The evidence-based guideline offers a comprehensive recommendation for solid organ transplant recipients undergoing MPA therapy, promoting standardization of MPA TDM, and enhancing treatment efficacy and safety.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and short-term efficacy of robot-assisted unilateral axillary approach for partial or total thyroidectomy without inflation. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 98 patients who underwent gasless unilateral axillary approach robot-assisted resection of bilateral thyroid lesions at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center between October 2022 and October 2024. Perioperative indicators were recorded and compared among patients undergoing different surgical approaches（total thyroidectomy vs. bilateral partial thyroidectomy） and with different body mass index（BMI） values, including operative time, intraoperative blood loss, number of lymph nodes dissected, incidence of postoperative hoarseness, incidence of postoperative hypocalcemia, and other postoperative complications. Results:A total of 98 patients were included, of whom 78.57% were female, with a median age of 39 years（interquartile range[IQR]: 35-49） and a median BMI of 24.08 kg/m²（IQR: 21.43-25.98）. The median intraoperative blood loss was 32.14 mL（IQR: 20.00-50.00）, the median operative time was 130.0 minutes（IQR: 104.80-150.30）, and the median hospital stay was 2.01 days（IQR: 1.00-2.00）. The most common postoperative complication was transient hypocalcemia, with an incidence of 16.32%. There were no cases of permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy or conversion to open surgery. Compared with the non-total thyroidectomy group, the total thyroidectomy group had a significantly longer operative time（135.10±33.28 min vs 120.30±30.53 min, P=0.033）. Subgroup analysis based on BMI showed no statistically significant differences in operative time, hospital stay, drainage volume, or incidence of hypocalcemia between patients with BMI≥25 kg/m² and those with BMI<25 kg/m². Conclusion:The gasless unilateral axillary approach for robot-assisted partial or total thyroidectomy demonstrates favorable safety, cosmetic outcomes, and feasibility. Appropriate selection of surgical techniques and meticulous protection of critical structures during the procedure can further reduce the risk of complications and optimize therapeutic outcomes.

In recent years, robot-assisted thyroid surgery has gained widespread adoption in major hospitals worldwide, offering advantages such as a shorter learning curve and superior cosmetic outcomes while overcoming the limitations of endoscopic surgery. Currently, the main surgical approaches include the transaxillary, bilateral axillo-breast（BABA）, retroauricular, and transoral vestibular routes. However, the widespread adoption of robotic thyroidectomy still faces several challenges, including technical complexity, prolonged operative time, a higher complication rate during the learning curve, and high costs. Nevertheless, when performed by experienced surgeons on carefully selected patients, robotic thyroidectomy can achieve outcomes comparable to those of conventional open transcervical thyroidectomy. This article provides a systematic review of the development and latest advances in robotic thyroid surgery.

HDAC7, a member of class IIa HDACs, plays a pivotal regulatory role in tumor, immune, fibrosis, and angiogenesis, rendering it a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, due to the high similarity in the enzyme active sites of class IIa HDACs, inhibitors encounter challenges in discerning differences among them. Furthermore, the substitution of key residue in the active pocket of class IIa HDACs renders them pseudo-enzymes, leading to a limited impact of enzymatic inhibitors on their function. In this study, proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology was employed to develop HDAC7 drugs. We developed an exceedingly selective HDAC7 PROTAC degrader B14 which showcased superior inhibitory effects on cell proliferation compared to TMP269 in various diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Subsequent investigations unveiled that B14 disrupts BCL6 forming a transcriptional inhibition complex by degrading HDAC7, thereby exerting proliferative inhibition in DLBCL. Our study broadened the understanding of the non-enzymatic functions of HDAC7 and underscored the importance of HDAC7 in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly in DLBCL and AML.
