OBJECTIVE To ensure the safety of patients’ drug use and control the risk of medical insurance expenditure by upgrading the pre-prescription review system to conduct pre-review on prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions， as well as to review the payment methods of drugs （including in-hospital and external drug dispensing）. METHODS The data interfaces of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions were integrated to achieve real-time rational drug use intervention. Additionally， an intelligent review project for payment method was added to precisely intervene in the medical insurance payment methods of drugs. The effect of the system upgrade was evaluated by comparing the qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions and the suspected amounts of drug violations from January to April 2025 （before the system upgrade） and May to August 2025 （after the system upgrade）. RESULTS After the upgrade of the pre-prescription review system， the qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions increased by 3.5% [95% confidence interval （CI）＝0.3%-6.7%， P ＝0.037 ] ； the suspected amounts of drug violations decreased to 52.9% of the pre-upgrade level （95%CI＝31.6%-88.5%， P ＝0.026）， and the average monthly sequential decrease was 29.5% （95%CI＝12.2%-43.4%， P ＝0.012）. Moreover， the addition of the intelligent review project for payment methods promoted the management of off-label drug use in our hospital. After the upgrade， a total of 79 filling valid applications for off-label drug use were received and archived. CONCLUSIONS The upgrade of the pre-prescription review system effectively improves the review qualification rates of prescriptions from internet hospitals and external prescriptions and the accuracy of medical insurance payment for drugs， and strengthens the supervision of off-label drug use， achieving dual guarantees of clinical rationality and medical insurance compliance.

Driven by the growing practical need to accelerate drug development and the continuous innovation of trial design in recent years， the number of protocol amendments during clinical trials have gradually increased， and the changed contents have become more flexible and complex， which significantly heightens the difficulty of ethical review on amendments. Against this backdrop， it is of great importance to fully leverage the role and responsibilities of ethics committees， effectively control clinical trial risks， and ensure subject safety. This paper analyzed development trends of protocol amendments in recent years， sorted out requirements for protocol amendments in Chinese regulations and guiding principles， and examined difficulties of amendment ethical review in practical work. Based on these， targeted strategies and recommendations were proposed， namely， strengthening the integration with scientific review， enhancing the formal review， adjusting the scope of review according to approval notifications， and adopting appropriate review methods， with a view to providing insights and references for the management of the amendment ethical review in drug clinical trials.

BACKGROUND:In vitro construction of tissue-engineered intestinal models plays an important role in intestinal regeneration and intestinal disease research.The interaction of intestinal nervous system and intestinal epithelial barrier to maintain body homeostasis is a hot topic in the bionic construction of tissue-engineered intestinal tract.OBJECTIVE:To construct a bionic model that can mimic the enteric nervous system in vivo.METHODS:Using fibroin protein with villus structure as scaffold,human induced neural stem cells solidified with collagen were added to intestinal epithelial cells(Caco-2 and HT29-MTX-E12)for 3-day culture to construct a co-culture system of intestinal epithelial cells and nerve cells(co-culture group).Human induced neural stem cells or intestinal epithelial cells cultured alone that were inoculated with fibroin scaffolds were set as controls.Cell morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy and hematoxylin-eosin staining.Cell activity was detected by Live/Dead cell staining.Human induced neural stem cell differentiation was detected by β-microtubulin immunofluorescence staining.Intestinal epithelial histological properties and barrier function were detected by microvillin,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,E-calmodulin,and mucin-2 immunofluorescence staining.The function of mucus secretion from intestinal epithelial cells was detected by Alcian blue staining.Alkaline phosphatase staining was performed to detect differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells,at the same time,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,and alkaline phosphatase mRNAs were detected by RT-qRCR.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The neuralized intestinal mucosal co-culture model with villi structure was successfully constructed,and neural stem cells and intestinal epithelial cells on the fibroin scaffold showed good cellular activities.After neuralization,the activity of alkaline phosphatase and sucrase-isomaltase in intestinal epithelial cells was enhanced,while the expression level of tight junction protein 1 was up-regulated.To conclude,the neuralized bionic intestinal epithelial model is beneficial to the maturation of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and the formation of barrier function.

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)expresses abundant glycolytic enzymes and displays comprehensive glucose metabolism reprogramming.Aldolase A(ALDOA)plays a prominent role in glycolysis;however,little is known about its role in HCC development.In the present study,we aim to explore how ALDOA is involved in HCC proliferation.HCC proliferation was markedly suppressed both in vitro and in vivo following ALDOA knockout,which is consistent with ALDOA overexpression encouraging HCC prolifera-tion.Mechanistically,ALDOA knockout partially limits the glycolytic flux in HCC cells.Meanwhile,ALDOA translocated to nuclei and directly interacted with c-Jun to facilitate its Thr93 phosphorylation by P21-activated protein kinase;ALDOA knockout markedly diminished c-Jun Thr93 phosphorylation and then dampened c-Jun transcription function.A crucial site Y364 mutation in ALDOA disrupted its interaction with c-Jun,and Y364S ALDOA expression failed to rescue cell proliferation in ALDOA deletion cells.In HCC patients,the expression level of ALDOA was correlated with the phosphorylation level of c-Jun(Thr93)and poor prognosis.Remarkably,hepatic ALDOA was significantly upregulated in the promotion and progression stages of diethylnitrosamine-induced HCC models,and the knockdown of Aldoa strikingly decreased HCC development in vivo.Our study demonstrated that ALDOA is a vital driver for HCC development by activating c-Jun-mediated oncogene transcription,opening additional avenues for anti-cancer therapies.

OBJECTIVE To standardize the strategies for prevention and control of Chikungunya(CHIK)in healthcare in-stitutions so as to reduce the risk of transmission in the institutions.METHODS A working group comprising the ex-perts in hospital infection control,infectious diseases,and microbiology systematically reviewed domestic and international evidence and current guidelines,integrated China's vector ecology and healthcare realities,conducted two rounds of Delphi to achieve expert consensus,and graded the evidence and recommendation strength using the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine system.RESULTS The consensus issues 18 actionable recommendations on triage,patient mosquito-proof isolation,integrated vector control,protection of susceptible populations,environmental cleaning and disinfection,specimen management,medical textile handling,and outbreak emergency response,with each statement assigned an evi-dence level and recommendation strength.CONCLUSION This consensus is for the first time in China to provide evidence-graded strategies for control of CHIK in healthcare institutions,offering work flow-oriented,implementable guidance for clinicians,laboratorians,and infection-control personnel under different risk scenarios and enhancing the comprehensive coping capacity of the healthcare institutions.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To observe any therapeutic effect of repeated high-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on patients with medication overuse headache (MOH).Methods:Fifty-seven persons with MOH were divided at random into a control group of 29 cases and an rTMS group of 28 cases. Both groups of patients stopped taking analgesics and were treated with topiramate and trazodone. The rTMS group received an additional 20 minutes of rTMS treatment daily, 5 days a week for 8 consecutive weeks. The control group received sham stimulation. Before and after the treatment, both groups′ headache symptoms, disability, depression, anxiety, cognition and sleep quality were evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, a migraine disability assessment scale (MIDAS), the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), the Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), the Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) and the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). Auditory event-related potential P300 was also measured for both groups.Results:After the treatment, the average VAS, MIDAS, HAMD, HAMA and PSQI scores of both groups had decreased significantly. The HAMD, HAMA and PSQI average scores of the rTMS group were then significantly better than the control group′s averages. The average MoCA score of the rTMS group had also improved significantly. The average latency of the auditory event-related potential P300 in the rTMS group was then (368.25±9.25)ms and its amplitude was (6.62±1.40)μV, showing significant improvement compared to before the treatment and compared with the control group.Conclusions:On the basis of oral administration of topiramate and trazodone, additional high-frequency rTMS treatment can significantly alleviate anxiety and depression in MOH patients, and improve their sleep quality and the latency and amplitude of event-related potential P300.

Objective To summarize the changing prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales based on the data of CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021 for improving antimicrobial treatment in clinical practice.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using a commercial automated susceptibility testing system according to the unified CHINET protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)M100 31st ed in 2021.Results Over the seven-year period(2015-2021),the overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 9.43％(62 342/661 235).The prevalence of CRE strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae,Citrobacter freundii,and Enterobacter cloacae was 22.38％,9.73％,and 8.47％,respectively.The prevalence of CRE strains in Escherichia coli was 1.99％.A few CRE strains were also identified in Salmonella and Shigella.The CRE strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.23±2.80)％,followed by blood(20.88±3.40)％and urine(18.40±3.45)％.Intensive care units(ICUs)were the major source of the CRE strains(27.43±5.20)％.CRE strains were resistant to all the β-lactam antibiotics tested and most non-β-lactam antimicrobial agents.The CRE strains were relatively susceptible to tigecycline and polymyxins with low resistance rates.Conclusions The prevalence of CRE strains was increasing from 2015 to 2021.CRE strains were highly resistant to most of the antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice.Clinicians should prescribe antimicrobial agents rationally.Hospitals should strengthen antibiotic stewardship in key clinical settings such as ICUs,and take effective infection control measures to curb CRE outbreak and epidemic in hospitals.
