OBJECTIVE To construct a pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals in nursing homes， so as to provide standardized content guidance for relevant practice. METHODS The initial items of pharmaceutical care content in n ursing homes were drafted through literature research and semi-structured interviews. Delphi method was used to conduct correspondence consultation among 38 experts from related fields in Xinjiang. The expert positive coefficient， authority coefficient， and Kendall’s W were calculated， and the analytic hierarchy process was employed to determine the weight of each item. After thorough discussion among the research team members， the pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals provided by hospital pharmacists collaborating with nursing homes was finalized. RESULTS The questionnaire recovery rates for both rounds of expert correspondence consultation were 100%， with an authority coefficient ＞0.8 and Kendall’s W ranging between 0.153 and 0.185 （ P ＜0.001）. A total of 7 primary items and 31 secondary items were ultimately determined， with the consistency ratio of the item weights all being less than 0.1. Based on the integration of importance and feasibility， among the primary items， “assessment of pharmaceutical care needs” was assigned the highest weight. Among the secondary items， highly practical items such as “survey of pharmaceutical care needs”“guidance on usage and dosage”“methods for correctly reading drug package inserts”， and “self-management of common chronic diseases in the elderly” were assigned relatively high comprehensive weights. CONCLUSIONS The pharmaceutical care framework suitable for elderly individuals provided by hospital pharmacists collaborating with nursing homes， which was constructed based on the Delphi method， demonstrates good scientific validity and reliability， and can serve as a reference for pharmacists to provide pharmaceutical care in nursing homes.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of potentially inappropriate medication （PIM） among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi based on three PIM screening tools， and to compare the applicability of different tools. METHODS A cross-sectional study design was adopted. Elderly individuals from six nursing homes in Urumqi were selected as the research subjects from May 2021 to September 2023. Demographic characteristics， disease burden and medication records of the elderly were collected. PIM screening was performed using the Chinese PIM criteria （2024 edition）， the American Geriatrics Society （AGS） Beers criteria （2023 edition）， and the Screening Tool of Older Person’S Prescriptions（STOPP）/Screening Tool to Alert to Right Treatment（START） （2023 edition）. Fleiss’s Kappa test was used to assess the consistency among the three screening tools， and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PIM. RESULTS The prevalence of PIM screened by the Chinese PIM criteria was 47.4% （323/682）， by the AGS Beers criteria was 43.4% （296/682）， and by the STOPP criteria was 50.9% （347/682）. The consistency among the three screening tools was low （Fleiss’s Kappa＝0.12， P ＜0.001）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that all three screening tools indicated that polypharmacy， aspirin use and psychotropic drug use were independent risk factors for PIM among elderly in nursing houses （all OR＞1， P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of PIM among the elderly in nursing homes in Urumqi is relatively high. Polypharmacy， aspirin use and psychotropic drug use are common independent risk factors for PIM. There are differences in screening results among the three tools with low consistency. The Chinese PIM criteria can serve as a first-line tool for PIM screening in nursing homes.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety， efficacy， and cost-effectiveness of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 （SGLT-2） inhibitors for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM）. METHODS Retrieved databases such as PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， as well as relevant health technology assessment （HTA） official websites， HTA reports， systematic review/meta- analysis and pharmacoeconomic studies about SGLT-2 inhibitors （including 12 types such as canagliflozin， dapagliflozin， and empagliflozin） in the treatment of T2DM were collected from the inception to January 28， 2025. After literature screening data extraction and quality assessment， a descriptive analysis was conducted on the results of the included studies. RESULTS A total of 38 articles were included， comprising 30 systematic reviews/meta-analyses， 4 pharmacoeconomic studies， and 4 HTA reports. In terms of effectiveness， most research results showed that canagliflozin was effective in controlling blood glucose， reducing body weight， and lowering blood pressure compared to other SGLT-2 inhibitors， while empagliflozin could effectively reduce all-cause mortality. In terms of safety， compared with other SGLT-2 inhibitors， empagliflozin has a lower overall adverse event rate and cardiovascular death risk， canagliflozin presented a higher risk of hypoglycemia， and dapagliflozin had a higher risk of urinary tract infections. In terms of economics， empagliflozin possessed greater economic advantages over both dapagliflozin and canagliflozin， while canagliflozin offered more benefits than dapagliflozin. CONCLUSIONS The selection of SGLT-2 inhibitors for the treatment of T2DM should be individualized. Canagliflozin is recommended for patients with high cardiovascular risk. Empagliflozin boasts the best overall safety profile. Dapagliflozin should be used with caution in patients at high risk of urinary tract infections. Based on foreign economic evidence， empagliflozin has economic advantages. In the future， drug economic studies under the Chinese health system need to be conducted.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the ethnic origin of Chuanqing people, one of the largest unidentified ethnic groups in Guizhou, China, and analyze its genetic relationships with surrounding populations. METHODS: Based on a self-developed microhaplotype system, we conducted genotyping and analyzed the genetic distribution of microhaplotype loci and their forensic applicability in Chuanqing population in Guizhou Province. Using the microhaplotype data from different intercontinental populations and previously reported data from Han population living in Guizhou Province, we systematically investigated the genetic background of Chuanqing people through population genetic approaches, including genetic distance estimation, principal component analysis, and phylogenetic tree construction. RESULTS: Among the studied population, the number of haplotype per microhaplotype ranged from 6 to 25. The average expected heterozygosity (He), observed heterozygosity (Ho), power of discrimination (PD), and probability of exclusion (PE) were 0.8291, 0.8301, 0.9387, and 0.6593, respectively. The cumulative power of discrimination (CPD) and cumulative probability of exclusion (CPE) for these 33 loci were 1-2.62×10^-41 and 1-7.64×10^-17, respectively. Population genetic analyses revealed that the Chuanqing population had close genetic relationships with the East Asian populations, especially the local Guizhou Han population, Beijing Han population and the Han populations living in southern China. CONCLUSIONS The 33 microhaplotypes exhibit high levels of genetic diversity in the Guizhou Chuanqing population, highlighting their potentials for both forensic identification and parentage testing. The Han populations might have contributed a significant amount of genetic material to the Chuanqing population during the formation and development of the latter.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the long-term cost-effectiveness of canagliflozin or semaglutide in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus（T2DM）poorly controlled with metformin. METHODS Based on the perspective of China’s health system， a Markov model was used to calculate the long-term costs and utilities of canagliflozin or semaglutide combined with metformin for T2DM patients in China for 30 years based on the data from SUSTAIN 8 study. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio（ICER） and incremental net monetary benefit （INMB） were calculated using one time the 2024 per capita gross domestic product（GDP） as the willingness-to-pay（WTP） threshold. One-way sensitivity analysis， probability sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis were conducted to confirm the stability of the conclusions. RESULTS Compared with canagliflozin + metformin， ICER of semaglutide combined with metformin was 260 485.67 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY），which was higher than the WTP threshold set in this study （95 749 yuan/QALY），and the corresponding INMB was －61 576.24 yuan，indicating that the canagliflozin + metformin regimen was more cost-effective. The cost of diabetes without complications treatment in the semaglutide + metformin group had the greatest influence on INMB，but changes in parameters within the selected range did not drive decision reversal. With the increasing of WTP threshold，the economic acceptability of semaglutide + metformin regimen increased. Under the current WTP threshold，the annual cost of semaglutide should be reduced by 42.95% to make the semaglutide + metformin regimen more cost- effective. CONCLUSIONS From the perspective of China’s health system， canagliflozin + metformin is more cost-effective than semaglutide + metformin for T2DM patients yueru. with poor glycemic control with metformin alone.

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.

Objective:To identify prognostic factors associated with survival rates in patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma after radical surgery, and to construct a Nomogram prediction model based on these factors, as well as to perform internal validation of the model.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on the clinical data of 162 patients (76 males and 86 females) with distal cholangiocarcinoma who underwent radical surgery at the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Ningxia Medical University General Hospital from January 2011 to July 2019. The study used univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis to identify independent risk factors and constructed a Nomogram prediction model using R software version 4.4.1. Additionally, the predictive accuracy of the model was evaluated through the C-index, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and the calibration curve.Results:The median overall survival for the 162 patients was 18.4 months. The final multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that the following factors were independent risk factors for poor postoperative prognosis in patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma: patient age [> 60 years, P = 0.004, hazard ratios ( HR) = 1.876], tumor diameter (> 2.0 cm, P < 0.001, HR = 0.174), tumor differentiation degree [moderately differentiated/moderately to highly differentiated/highly differentiated, P = 0.017, HR = 1.407], lymph node metastasis (Yes, P = 0.002, HR = 0.551), and vascular invasion (Yes, P = 0.025, HR = 1.329) (all P < 0.05). Based on these independent risk factors identified through statistical analysis, the C-index of the constructed nomogram prediction model was 0.793. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values for the model predicting postoperative 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival rates were 0.932, 0.771, and 0.758,respectively. Conclusions:Patient age, tumor diameter, tumor differentiation degree, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion are independent risk factors for poor postoperative prognosis in patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma. The final Nomogram prediction model demonstrates good predictive ability and has certain practical application potential.
