OBJECTIVE To explore the characteristics and influential factors of pharmaceutical clinic service demands, providing evidence for optimizing pharmaceutical service models and facilitating pharmaceutical service models of pharmacist role transformation. METHODS A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, and 410 outpatient participants were selected from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center through convenience sampling for questionnaire administration from February to May 2025. Kano model was applied to analyze the demand attributes of 25 pharmaceutical services, while questionnaires were used to assess patients’ awareness and demand status. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on key demographic variables such as gender, age, educational attainment, and economic burdens, to SACA- systematically examine the differences in Kano attribute classification among patients in each subgroup. RESULTS The awareness rate of pharmaceutical outpatient services among patients was only 14.63%, yet those who were aware demonstrated a significantly higher demand rate for such services compared to those who were unaware (P<0.001). The demand for pharmaceutical clinic services exhibited a hierarchical characteristic: twelve items were identified as attractive attributes (e. g., providing suggestions for more affordable treatment options, offering online consultation services, etc.), five items as expected attributes (e.g., having a good attitude and being able to patiently answer your questions, etc.), three items as must-have attributes (e.g., providing guidance on medication dosage and usage, providing guidance on medication precautions, etc.), five items as indifferent attributes (e.g., providing treatment plan recommendations based on the patient’s condition). There were zero items classified as reverse attribute. Subgroup analysis revealed that female patients showed greater concern for “neat and clean attire of medical staff” than male patients (P<0.001); patients under 60 years of age demonstrated stronger demand for “providing treatment plan recommendations based on patients’ conditions” compared to patients aged 60 or above (P=0.016); those with below high school education placed greater emphasis on “providing guidance on medication precautions” compared to those with a high school education or above (P=0.011); patients with lower economic burdens exhibited stronger preferences for “neat and clean attire of medical staff ” (P=0.002). CONCLUSIONS The public awareness rate of pharmaceutical clinic services is considerably low; however, those who are aware of such services demonstrate significantly higher demand. The medication safety-related services and convenience-oriented demands should be prioritized in the development of pharmaceutical clinics. Moreover, the study also revealed that factors such as gender, age, educational level, and economic burdens exert significant influences on patients’ service demands.

Objective:To develop and validate the reliability and validity of the care giver assessment via observation (CGAO) in general hospital .Methods:From July 4, 2022 to June 24, 2023, a total of 120 adult inpatients with somatic diseases in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were selected by cluster sampling. All patients completed the CGAO, union physio-psycho-social assessment questionnaire (UPPSAQ-70) and patient health questionnaire-9 item (PHQ-9) assessment simultaneously. Exploratory factor analysis and item response theory analysis were used to explore the structural validity of CGAO by SPSS 26.0 software.The symptoms items and suicide risk assessed by UPPSAQ-70 and PHQ-9 were used as criteria to verify criterion validity.Results:Through exploratory factor analysis, a single-factor model could be constructed. The analysis based on item response theory suggested that it had a good fit with the single-factor stepwise response model ( χ2/ df=1.307, RMSEA=0.051, CFI=0.986, TLI=0.983). The CGAO total score was significantly positively correlated with the total scores of PHQ-9 and UPPSAQ-70 ( r=0.639, 0.518, both P<0.001). The Cronbach's α coefficient of the CGAO full scale was 0.735. Conclusion:CGAO has good reliability and validity in evaluating mental behavior of patients, and is suitable for early recognition of mental behavior abnormalities of inpatients in general hospitals.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and postoperative radiotherapy remains an essential component of its treatment. In recent years, hypofractionated radiotherapy has gradually become the recommended approach for postoperative breast cancer treatment. Compared with conventional fractionated radiotherapy, hypofractionated regimens shorten the overall treatment duration, enhance patient convenience, and reduce treatment costs, while achieving comparable long-term efficacy and maintaining good quality of life. Based on relevant domestic and international studies and clinical experience, this consensus establishes expert recommendations regarding indications, prescribed doses, dose constraints for organs at risk (OAR), implementation methods, and plan evaluation for hypofractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer surgery, with a particular focus on moderately hypofractionated (MHF) and ultrahypofractionated (UHF) regimens. MHF radiotherapy is applicable to whole-breast irradiation, chest wall irradiation, and regional nodal irradiation, and is suitable for most breast cancer patients. UHF radiotherapy, which employs a higher dose per fraction to further shorten the treatment course, is suitable for patients requiring rapid therapy or prioritizing treatment convenience. Although the short-term efficacy of UHF radiotherapyis similar to that of MHF radiotherapy, its long-term efficacy and safety require further clinical validation. Meanwhile, potential adverse effects of UHF, such as breast induration and atrophy, should be carefully assessed. Therefore, radiotherapy dose and fractionation regimen should be individualized according to patient-specific factors, particularly considering OAR dose constraints. Rational selection of radiotherapy regimens can minimize adverse effects while maintaining therapeutic efficacy, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life. This consensus provides scientific guidance for the clinical and research application of hypofractionated radiotherapy in breast cancer.

Objective:To understand the prevalence of hearing loss among individuals aged 60 and above undergoing physical examinations and to explore the feasibility of using pure tone audiometry (PTA) for hearing screening in the elderly population, as well as to establish screening criteria suitable for our country.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study, a total of 1 066 elderly individuals (619 males and 447 females; Age range: 60-90 years old, with an average of 66.5 years old) who underwent physical examinations at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital physical examination center from February to December 2023, were screened using PTA and the Chinese version Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly Screening (CHHIE-S). Different screening criteria were applied to calculate the proportion of individuals who did not pass the PTA screening in the elderly population. The consistency between these results and the screening outcomes of the CHHIE-S scale was analyzed to explore reasonable screening standards. We performed statistical analysis using SPSS 27.0.Results:It was found that 18.39% of the elderly population had moderate or severe hearing loss. The positive rate determined by the detection of pure tones at a fixed dB level was significantly higher than that based on the average hearing threshold across 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 kHz frequencies (4-frequency pure-tone average, 4fPTA), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=136.56, P<0.001). The criterion of 4fPTA>35 dB HL in the better ear showed the highest consistency with the criterion of CHHIE-S>8, with a Kappa value of 0.554 ( P<0.001), and this criterion resulted in a positive rate of 15.57% (166/1 066). Conclusions:Conducting hearing screening based on PTA among the elderly population undergoing physical examinations is an effective and feasible approach. Given the subjective perceptions of the elderly population being screened, a 4fPTA greater than 35 dB HL in both ears might be a reasonable criterion.

Objectives:To explore whether short-course radiotherapy (SCRT)-based total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) combined with PD-1 inhibitors could further promote tumor regression and improve the prognosis.Methods:This is a prospective, multicenter, two-arm randomized controlled, seamless phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ trial for proficient mismatch repair or microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Eligible patients were randomly assigned to the iTNT (TNT+PD-1) group or the TNT group. Patients in the TNT group received SCRT (5 Gy×5) followed by 4 cycles of CAPOX or 6 cycles of mFOLFOX chemotherapy, with the iTNT group receiving SCRT followed by the same regime in combination with 4 cycles of Sintilimab. Total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery or watch and wait (W&W) was performed after neoadjuvant therapy and then 2 cycles of same regimen as before were recommended. The primary endpoints are the complete response (CR) rate for phase Ⅱ trial and 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) for phase Ⅲ trial. A total of 588 patients will be enrolled for the phase Ⅱ/Ⅲ trial. Short-term efficacy and safety data from the initial 100 treated patients were analyzed as planned.Results:From 2022-8-31 to 2023-5-24 the initial 100 patients were enrolled from 10 hospitals in China, 76.0%(76/100) patients were male, and the median age was 61 years (21-74 years). More patients had tumors located in the lower rectum (78.0%, 78/100), staged T3-4 (97.0%, 97/100) and N1-2 (93.0%, 93/100), and about half of the tumors invaded the mesorectal fascia (52.0%, 52/100) and with extramural vascular invasion (51.0%, 51/100). Analyses were performed according to the per-protocal (PP) set. All patients in the iTNT group ( n=52) and the TNT group ( n=48) completed SCRT; The 4-cycle chemotherapy±Sintilimab completion rates were 86.5% and 100.0% in the iTNT and TNT groups, respectively. In the iTNT group, 82.7% (43/52), 11.5% (6/52), and 5.8% (3/52) of the patients received 4, 3, and 2 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor. After TNT, 68 patients underwent radical surgery and 15 patients achieved cCR and adopted W&W. The pathological complete response (pCR) rates were 48.5% (16/33) and 17.1% (6/35) in the iTNT and TNT groups, with CR rates of 50.0% (25/50) and 26.1% (12/46), respectively. The incidence of treatment-related grade 3-4 adverse events was 26.9% (14/52, iTNT group) and 18.8% (9/48, TNT group), with thrombocytopenia and leukopenia being the most common. Among patients receiving immunotherapy, grade 3 immunotherapy-related adverse events occurred in 2 (3.8%, 2/52) patients: one case was pancreatitis, another case was hepatitis combined with myositis and myocarditis. Conclusion:The preliminary results show that SCRT-based TNT combined with PD-1 inhibitors could further improve the CR rate for LARC without unexpected serious adverse events.
