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.

This paper systematically summarizes the practical experience of the 2025 Dingri earthquake emergency medical rescue in Tibet. It analyzes the requirements for earthquake medical rescue under conditions of high-altitude hypoxia, low temperature, and low air pressure. The paper provides a detailed discussion on the strategic layout of earthquake medical rescue at the national level, local government level, and through social participation. It covers the construction of rescue organizational systems, technical systems, material support systems, and information systems. The importance of building rescue teams is emphasized. In high-altitude and cold conditions, rapid response, scientific decision-making, and multi-party collaboration are identified as key elements to enhance rescue efficiency. By optimizing rescue organizational structures, strengthening the development of new equipment, and promoting telemedicine technologies, the precision and effectiveness of medical rescue can be significantly improved, providing important references for future similar disaster rescues.

Rescue vehicles and nursing unit drug stock are important in the clinical rescue process.Strengthening the management of rescue vehicles and nursing unit drug stock is conducive to ensuring the safety of clinical medication and impro-ving the quality of medical services.Based on scientificity,universality,guidance,and operability principles,the standard prepa-ration team revealed relevant national policy documents,domestic and foreign standards specifications,and literature.It sorted the key contents of rescue vehicles and base drug management.After several rounds of opinion collection and expert argumentation,the social organization standard Pharmacy administration and pharmacy practice in healthcare institutions—Part 3-7-3:Pharma-ceutical supply services—Key drugs management—Rescue vehicle and nursing unit drug stock management was proved.The main content of the standard includes 10 elements from 3 key parts:basic requirements,management processes,and quality manage-ment and evaluation improvement,to provide guidance in allocating,storing,and managing rescue vehicles and nursing unit drug stock.

ObjectiveTo investigate and analyze an outbreak of rotavirus infectious diarrhea in a prison in Chongqing Municipality, to provide a basis for adult rotavirus surveillance and prevention, and to explore the public health problems in special settings. MethodsA retrospective survey was conducted to collect and analyze data on individual cases with diarrheal disease on-site. The clinical characteristics, as well as the temporal, spatial and geographical distribution patterns of the epidemic were described. Multi-pathogen detection tests were conducted both on diarrhea cases and environmental samples, with viral genotyping performed on positive samples. A case-control analysis was performed to identify the causes of the outbreak, and an SEIR model was adopted to predict the outbreak trend and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. ResultsA total of 65 cases were found among the inmates, with an attack rate of 2.03%. The predominant clinical manifestations included diarrhea (89.23%), watery stool (73.85%), and dehydration (18.46%). The epidemic curve indicated a “human-to-human” transmission pattern, with an average incubation period of 5‒6 days. The attack rates among chefs in the main canteen (80.00%, 8/10) and caterers (28.33%, 17/60) were significantly higher than those of other inmates （P<0.05）. Multi-pathogen polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing detected positive for group A rotavirus, with the viral genotyping identified as G9P [8] strain. Factors such as unprotected "bare-handed" food distribution among cases with diarrhea (OR=9.512, 95%CI: 4.261‒21.234) and close contact with diarrhea cases (OR=3.656, 95%CI: 1.719‒7.778) were the possible cause of the outbreak. The SEIR model (r₀=5, α=0.3, β₁=0.08, β₂=0.04) was constructed using prison inmates as susceptible population, aiming at fitting the initial transmission trend of the outbreak, and the epidemic rate declined rapidly after intervention measures were implemented (r_t≈0). ConclusionThis rare rotavirus infection diarrhea outbreak among adults in confined settings suggests that the construction of public health prevention and control systems in prison may be overlooked. Cross infection during meal processing and distribution in the canteens of such settings is likely to be the cause of the outbreak. Given the potential neglect of public heath system construction in special settings, it is imperative to enhance the surveillance and monitoring of rotavirus and other intestinal multi-pathogens among adults, as well as the construction of public health prevention and control systems in these special settings.

Objective To observe the value of pituitary radiomics and MRI features combined model for predicting growth hormone(GH)status in pediatric short stature.Methods Totally 300 children with short stature were enrolled as training set,while other 73 cases were taken as external validation set.Based on growth hormone stimulation test,the children were divided into GH deficiency(GHD)group(n=228)and non-GHD group(n=145).The training set included 196 cases in GHD subgroup and 104 cases in non-GHD subgroup,while the validation set included 32 cases in GHD subgroup and 41 cases in non-GHD subgroup.Radiomics features of pituitary were extracted from T1WI.The key features were selected using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression,and machine learning models were subsequently constructed using support vector machine(SVM),logistic regression(LR),naive Bayes(NB)and K-nearest neighbor(KNN),respectively.Then combined models were constructed combining with MRI features,and the efficacy of each model was evaluated.Results The area under the curve(AUC)of SVM,LR,NB,and KNN radiomics model for predicting GH status in pediatric short stature was 0.860,0.831,0.838 and 0.901 in training set,0.788,0.829,0.823 and 0.770 in validation set,while of the relative combined SVM,LR,NB and KNN model was 0.924,0.903,0.859 and 0.920 in training set,and 0.827,0.881,0.836 and 0.718 in validation set.LRcombined model had the best overall performance,with sensitivity of 84.94％,specificity of 80.56％and accuracy of 83.61％in training set,and 80.95％,72.22％and 80.00％in validation set,respectively.Conclusion Pituitary radiomics and MRI features combined model could effectively predict GH status in pediatric short stature.

Objective:To evaluate whether the mechanism by which mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-exo) mitigated endotoxin-induced lung injury was related to the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/mitochondrial signaling pathway in alveolar macrophages of mice.Methods:In vivo experiment Eighteen C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) mice were divided into 3 groups ( n=6 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group (L group) and LPS + MSC-exo group (LM group). Six HO-1 conditional knockout mice (HO-1 -/-) were selected and served as HO-1 -/- + MSC-exo + LPS group (HML group). The model of endotoxin-induced lung injury was prepared by injection of LPS 15 mg/kg. MSC-exo (2×10 11 particles) was intravenously injected at 1 h before injection of LPS in LM group. MSC-exo (2×10 11 particles) was intravenously injected and 1 h later LPS was injected in HML group. The expression of HO-1 in macrophages was detected using immunofluorescence, lung injury was assessed following hematoxylin-eosin staining, the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) was determined, and the mitochondrial morphology was observed with a transmission electron microscope. Cell experiment Alveolar macrophages (MH-S) were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), LPS+ phosphate buffer solution group (LP group), LPS+ MSC-exo group (LM group), and LPS+ MSC-exo+ HO-1 small-interfering RNA group (LMS group). Cells were incubated for 12 h with LPS 10 μg/ml in LP, LM and LMS groups. In addition, LM group was incubated with MSC-exo 100 μg/ml, LP group was incubated with the equal volume of phosphate buffer solution, and the alveolar macrophages were transfected with HO-1 small interfering RNA and incubated with MSC-exo 100 μg/ml in LMS group at the same time. The concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, HO-1 expression was detected by Western blot, the mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using JC-1 staining, and the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was detected by fluorescence. Results:In vivo experiment Compared to C group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased ( P<0.05), the fluorescence signal of HO-1 in macrophages was enhanced, and the damage to mitochondria was aggravated in L group. Compared to L group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly decreased ( P<0.05), the fluorescence signal of HO-1 in macrophages was enhanced, and the damage to mitochondria was reduced in LM group. Compared to LM group, the lung injury score and W/D ratio were significantly increased ( P<0.05), macrophages had no HO-1 fluorescence signal, and the damage to mitochondria was aggravated in HML group. Cell experiment Compared to C group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of HO-1 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited green JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by an enhanced ROS fluorescence signal in LP group. Compared to LP group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly decreased, the expression of HO-1 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited red JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by a weakened ROS fluorescence signal in LM group. Compared to LM group, the concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of HO-1 was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the mitochondria predominantly exhibited green JC-1 fluorescence, accompanied by an enhanced ROS fluorescence signal in LMS group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which MSC-exo attenuates endotoxin-induced lung injury may be related to up-regulation of HO-1 expression in alveolar macrophages and reduction of mitochondrial damage in mice.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for critically ill children.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Data from 222 pediatric patients who underwent ECMO transport from May 2019 to May 2024 at 5 ECMO centers and Chinese Database of Pediatric Extracorporeal Life Support Organization were collected. The cases were divided into primary and secondary transport groups by nature of transport. The clinical data, including demographics, ECMO indications, transport distance, pre-transport lab results, prognosis and complications were analyzed. Two independent samples t-test, Wilcoxon test, and χ2 test or Fisher′s exact probability method were used to compare the differences between 2 groups and evaluate the safety and efficacy of secondary transport. Results:Among the 222 children transported with ECMO, there were 135 males and 87 females, with an age of 3.0 (0.2, 7.0) years. There were 202 cases in the primary transport group and 20 cases in the secondary transport group. All secondary transport patients had failed attempts at weaning ECMO before transfer. The patients in the secondary transport group were older, had higher rates of surgical cannulation, circulatory support, and pre-ECMO lactate levels compared to the primary transport group (7.0 (2.8, 10.0) vs. 3.0 (0.2, 6.0) years old, 55.0% (11/20) vs. 3.6% (7/202), 80.0% (16/20) vs. 41.6% (84/202), (10±4) vs. (7±6) mmol/L, Z=3.41, χ 2=66.31, 10.99, t=2.24, all P<0.05). In the secondary transport group, the vasoactive-inotropic scores of patients on circulatory support and the oxygenation index for patients requiring respiratory support were higher than those in the primary transport group (83±33 vs. 82±68, 51.0±1.8 vs. 37.4±10.2, t=2.36, 2.63, respectively; both P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in sex, transport distance, pre-ECMO creatinine, arterial blood gas BE values, and ECMO duration (all P>0.05). No life-threatening complications occurred during the transport in either group. Two patients in the secondary transport group underwent heart transplantation, and 1 patient underwent radiofrequency ablation. The overall survival rate between the 2 groups showed no statistically significant difference (45.0% (9/20) vs. 55.4% (112/202), χ2=1.15, P>0.05). Conclusions:Secondary ECMO transport for critically ill children don't increase mortality or life-threatening complications during transport. ECMO patients who cannot receive effective treatment locally can benefit from secondary transport to an advanced ECMO center provides further treatment opportunities.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of enteral nutrition (EN) initiated within 24 h after heart transplantation in pediatric patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data from 16 pediatric heart transplant recipients at the Seventh Medical Center of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital between October 2022 and October 2024 were collected, including demographics, anthropometric measurements, biochemical markers, cytokine levels, and clinical outcomes. Based on the timing of EN initiation, the patients were divided into EN-initiated within 24 h and EN-initiated after 24 h 2 groups. Demographic data, preoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support, physical examination indicators, laboratory parameters, and cytokine levels were compared between groups using independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Fisher′s exact probability test. Results:The cohort comprised 16 patients (10 males and 6 females) with an age of (12.5±1.9) years. The EN-initiated within 24 h group comprised 6 cases, and the EN-initiated after 24 h group comprised 10 cases. No significant difference was observed between the two groups in age, preoperative body mass index Z-score, preoperative ECMO support, physical examination indicators, laboratory parameters (total protein, albumin, hemoglobin), or cytokine levels (all P>0.05). Compared to the EN-initiated after 24 h group, the EN-initiated within 24 h group exhibited a shorter intensive care unit stay ( t=2.65, P<0.05) and shorter mechanical ventilation duration ( t=2.23, P<0.05) than EN-initiated after 24 h group. Total hospitalization length had no significant difference ( P>0.05). At 72 h post-transplant, the EN-initiated within 24 h group had a lower interleukin-12 P70 ( t=2.46, P<0.05) and interferon-γ levels ( t=2.55, P<0.05) than EN-initiated after 24 h group. Prior to discharge, the EN-initiated within 24 h group has a lower mean skinfold thickness ( t=2.49, P<0.05) and lower mid-upper arm circumference ( t=2.36, P<0.05) compared with the EN-initiated after 24 h group. Conclusions:Initiating EN within 24 h postoperatively is safe and feasible in pediatric heart transplant recipients. Early EN may shorten the length of intensive care unit stay and mechanical ventilation while attenuating postoperative release of inflammatory cytokine.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dupilumab in the treatment of atopic dermatitis in the elderly. METHODS: In this study, elderly patients with atopic dermatitis treated with dupilumab for at least 16 weeks in the Department of Dermatology and Venereology of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2021 to October 2023 were retrospectively collected. Clinical indicators were compared before, during and after treatment, including pruritus numerical rating score (PNRS), eczema area and severity index (EASI), dermatology life quality index (DLQI) score, and the incidence of adverse events was recorded. The expression of interferon γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in peripheral blood were compared before treatment and after 16 weeks of treatment. RESULTS: A total of 90 elder patients with atopic dermatitis were included, EASI, PNRS and DLQI scores all showed a gradual downward trend during the treatment period, which was manifested as a rapid decline in the first 4 weeks after starting treatment, and then the decline gradually leveled off. The results of point-to-point comparison showed that EASI, PNRS and DLQI scores in 4 weeks after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment (P < 0.001); In the 16th week after treatment, the scores of the above therapeutic indicators were further reduced, and the difference was statistically significant compared with the 4th week (P < 0.01); The EASI score was significantly lower at each time point than the previous time point, indicating that the patients' skin lesions continued to improve significantly. The overall efficacy of dupliumab was evaluated. After 4 weeks of treatment, 62.89% of patients achieved EASI-50 (EASI score decreased by ≥50%), and 74.4% of patients' DLQI score decreased by ≥4 points. After 16 weeks of treatment, 57.8% of the patients achieved EASI-75, 32.2% achieved EASI-90, and the PNRS and DLQI scores of all the patients decreased by ≥4 points. After 16 weeks of treatment, the expression levels of IL-4 and IL-6 were (31.62±6.23) ng/L and (14.36±2.25) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those before treatment (P < 0.001), and the expression level of IFN-γ was (15.37±3.14) ng/L, which was higher than before treatment (P < 0.001).The main adverse reactions were conjunctivitis (2 cases), injection site reaction (3 cases) and multiple bacterial folliculitis of the back (2 cases), which could be alleviated by symptomatic treatment, and no serious adverse reactions occurred. CONCLUSION Dupilumab has shown good efficacy in the treatment of elderly atopic dermatitis, which can effectively improve clinical symptoms such as itching and skin lesions, improve the quality of life of patients, and no serious adverse reactions occurred during treatment, so it is safe and worthy of clinical promotion.

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.
