OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of antidepressant active components from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects. METHODS Eight healthy subjects （3 males and 5 females） were recruited and given a single oral dose of 8.55 g of Jiaotai pills. Venous blood samples were collected before administration （0 h） and at intervals from 0.25 to 36.0 hours post- administration. After treating the plasma samples with protein precipitation， the blood concentrations of the antidepressant active ingredients （coptisine， berberine， magnoflorine， and palmatine） in Jiaotai pills were determined using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） method. DAS 2.0 software was employed to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of healthy subjects [half-life （t1/2）， peak concentration （cmax）， time to peak concentration （tmax）， area under the concentration-time curve （AUC）， and mean residence time （MRT）] using a non-compartmental model. RESULTS After healthy subjects took Jiaotai pills， the drug-time curve of the four antidepressant active ingredients conforms to a two-compartment model and tmax values were similar， with all reaching peak blood concentrations within 2.00 to 4.00 hours post-administration. However， the t1/2 and MRT of coptisine and berberine were significantly longer than that of magnoflorine and palmatine. There were also significant differences in the AUC and cmax among the four antidepressant active ingredients， with magnoflorine exhibiting markedly higher AUC0-t and cmax compared to the other three components. CONCLUSIONS In this study，LC-MS/MS is used to analyze the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the antidepressant active ingredients from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects， can provide valuable references for the clinical application of Jiaotai pills.

With the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and an aging population,China's traditional segmented health-care delivery model is increasingly inadequate for meeting the growing demand for long-term,systematic health management.In response,the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model has emerged,aiming to enhance the quality and continuity of care through close collaboration between physicians and pharmacists.This paper starts from the concept and origin of"Physician-Phar-macist Co-management"model,focusing on its China-specific advantages shaped by national healthcare policies and clinical real-ities.Unlike the internationally recognized Collaborative Drug Therapy Management(CDTM)model,the Chinese approach re-flects local healthcare structures and needs.Using obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)as a case study,we examine the mod-el's application and value in managing chronic respiratory diseases.Data indicate that,after the implementation of"physician-pharmacist co-management"model in COPD patients,the CAT score decreased by approximately 24％,the annual rate of acute exacerbation-related hospitalizations declined by about 72％,and the proportion of patients with regular pulmonary rehabilitation exercise habits increased by roughly 3.3-fold.Additionally,the percentage of patients without adverse reactions rose from 47.37％to 64.41％,and the vaccination rate increased by about 2.7-fold.These findings demonstrate the model's significant advantages in improving clinical outcomes,enhancing patient adherence,and reducing healthcare costs.Despite benefits,howev-er,the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model in China faces several challenges,including limited public awareness,gaps in pharmacist training,and insufficient policy support.To address these challenges,this study recommends strengthening public education,establishing comprehensive evaluation systems for pharmaceutical professionals,and improving incentive mech-anisms.Overall,the findings suggest that the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model holds considerable promise for im-proving the quality of chronic disease management,enhancing patient adherence,and optimizing healthcare resource utilization in China.

Objective:To investigate the impact of postoperative complications on adverse outcomes following curative-intent resection for gallbladder cancer (GBC).Methods:The multi-center real-world study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 629 patients with GBC, who were admitted to 14 medical centers including The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from the national multicenter database of Biliary Surgery Group of Elite Group of Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery, from April 2020 to April 2024 were collected. There were 225 males and 404 females, aged (64±10)years. Patients underwent open curative-intent resection for GBC. Observation indicators: (1)surgery, postoperative complica-tions and adverse outcomes; (2) analysis of risk factors affecting postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and population attributable fraction (PAF). Missing data in predictor variables were addressed using multiple imputation with chained equations, while cases with missing outcome variables were addressed using the "multiple imputation then deletion (MID)" strategy. The severity of multicollinearity among independent variables was assessed using the variance inflation factor (VIF) test. Multivariable possion regression models with log link and robust error variance were construc-ted incorporating restricted cubic splines (3 knots) to address nonlinear relationships in continuous variables, calculating adjusted relative risk ( RR) with corresponding 95% confidence interval ( CI). Adjusted PAF was calculated for each imputed dataset using the AF package of R software, with subsequent pooling performed according to Rubin's rules. Results:(1) Surgery, postoperative complications and adverse outcomes. All 629 patients underwent curative-intent resection for GBC, of which 143 cases had postoperative complications, including 68 cases of intra-abdominal ascites, 39 cases of pulmonary infection, 21 cases of bile leakage, 12 cases of intra-abdominal hemorrhage, 11 cases of liver failure, 10 cases of pan-creatic fistula, 10 cases of wound infection, 10 cases of gastroparesis, 7 cases of cholangitis, 7 cases of sepsis. The same patient could have more than one kind of complication. Of 629 patients, there were 19 cases of postoperative 90-day death and 11 cases of missing data, 42 cases with post-operative 90-day reoperation and 7 cases with missing data, 44 cases with postoperative 90-day readmission and 3 cases with missing data, 155 cases with prolonged postoperative hospital stay and 3 cases with missing data. (2) Analysis of risk factors affecting the postoperative adverse outcomes in patients and PAF. Results of multivariate analysis showed that pulmonary infection and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day mortality ( RR=3.74, 12.15, 95% CI as 1.18-11.83, 1.98-74.48, P<0.05). Pulmonary infection demons-trated the highest PAF as 4.61% (95% CI as 3.94%-5.28%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, and intra-abdominal hemorrhage were independent risk factors for post-operative 90-day reoperation ( RR=4.80, 3.62, 3.46, 4.99, 95% CI as 2.49-9.26, 1.42-9.21, 1.34-8.92, 1.55-16.06, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 8.65% (95% CI as 8.22%-9.08%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, bile leakage, and liver failure were independent risk factors for postoperative 90-day readmission ( RR=6.20, 3.33, 14.33, 95% CI as 3.21-11.95, 1.33-8.35, 3.72-55.28, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 9.11% (95% CI as 8.85%-9.37%, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites, pulmonary infection, bile leakage, liver failure, and wound infection were independent risk factors for prolonged postoperative hospital stay ( RR=2.29, 2.21, 2.26, 2.14, 3.35, 95% CI as 1.63-3.23, 1.41-3.46, 1.32-3.86, 1.11-4.13, 1.70-6.60, P<0.05). Intra-abdominal ascites demonstrated the highest PAF as 6.03% (95% CI as 5.71%-6.35%, P<0.05). Conclusion:Pulmonary infection is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day mortality after curative-intent resection for GBC, while intra-abdominal ascites is the most significant risk factor for postoperative 90-day reoperation, postoperative 90-day readmission, and prolonged postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To analyze the three-dimensional radiographic characteristics of solid variant of odontogenic keratocyst(SOKC)using multi-slice spiral tomography(MSCT).Methods:Clinical records,histopathological reports and MSCT images of 8 patients were retrospectively acquired,radiographic features,including lesion site,size,borders,jaw expansion,internal structures and relationship with surrounding tissues were analyzed.Results:8 cases(4 males and 4 females)aged 37-65 years were included.Among them,4 lesions were located in the maxilla and the other 4 in mandible.Clinically,the lesions manifested as an enlargement of the affected area in the jaw bone,with pain present in 6 cases.On MSCT scans,all lesions showed evident jaw expansion.The boundaries of the lesions were clear in 3 cases,and unclear in 5 cases.4 cases exhibited multilocular radiolucent lesions,while the other 4 cases showed mixed radiolucent/opaque lesions resembling fibro-osseous lesion.The maxilla lesions involved the palate,na-sal cavity,maxillary sinus and orbital floor.All mandible SOKCs were recurrent and infectious,with involvement of the surrounding soft tissue.Conclusion:SOKC exhibits imaging characteristics that differentiate from conventional odontogenic keratocysts.Radio-graphically,it presents as a benign or low-grade malignant solid jaw mass.

BACKGROUND:The re-injury rate of the anterior cruciate ligament continues to be high and the unclear relationship between neuromuscular function and biomechanical risk factors may be one of the reasons for poor injury prevention and rehabilitation.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the biomechanics and neuromuscular function characteristics of the knee joint during landing movements after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,and to further explore the effects of muscle strength,proprioception,and dynamic postural control on the risk indicators of anterior cruciate ligament injury during landing maneuver.METHODS:Twenty-six male anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction patients and 26 healthy control males at the age of 18-35 years were recruited and randomized to undergo joint kinesthesia test,Y-balance test,and isometric muscle strength tests.Kinematic and kinetic data of the knee joints during single-legged jump landing tasks were collected using an infrared motion capture system and force plates.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the healthy control group,patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction demonstrated higher knee valgus angle(P=0.021),lower hamstring muscle strength(P＜0.001),lower quadriceps muscle strength(P＜0.001)and Y-balance anterior reach distance(P＜0.001),and worse knee flexion kinesthesia(P＜0.001)and extension kinesthesia(P=0.001).(2)The predictor variables of knee extension moment were quadriceps strength and knee flexion kinesthesia(R2=0.298,P=0.007).The predictor variable of knee varus and valgus angle was hamstring strength(R2=0.117,P=0.048).The predictor variable of knee internal and external rotation angle was the hamstring-to-quadriceps peak torque ratio(R2=0.134,P=0.037).(3)The results showed that after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,patients still had abnormal biomechanical action patterns and neuromuscular function defects in the frontal plane of the knee joint,and elevating the muscle strength of the hamstrings,avoiding excessive quadriceps muscle strength and enhancing the proprioception of the knee joint were helpful to improve the biomechanical patterns of the sagittal plane,frontal plane and horizontal plane of the knee joint and reduce the risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury during landing maneuvers.

Objective:To explore the causal relationship between 1 400 blood metabolites and hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism by using Mendelian randomization(MR) approach.Methods:This study employed a bi-directional Mendelian randomization analysis and sourced data of blood metabolites related to hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism from the genome-wide association study(GWAS) database. R software and TwoSampleMR software package were used for analysis. The inverse variance weighting method(IVW) was used as the main method, and MR-Egger regression, weighted median method, simple mode and weighted mode were used as supplementary methods to analyze the causal relationship between blood metabolites and hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. The false-positive rate was corrected by false discovery rate(FDR, FDR<0.2) to control for false positives; Meta-analysis of different sample pools was performed for overall assessment. Results:The analysis found three blood metabolites significantly linked to hypothyroidism: pregnenediol disulfate(IVW: OR=1.068, 95% CI 1.032-1.106, P<0.001), 1-(1-enyl-palmitoyl)-2-linoleoyl-GPE(IVW: OR=0.891, 95% CI 0.840-0.944, P<0.001), and linoleic-arachidonic glycerin(IVW: OR =0.923, 95% CI 0.885-0.963, P<0.001). Glutamine was also noted(IVW: OR=0.998, 95% CI 0.997-0.999, P<0.001). Reverse MR showed no significant correlation between hyperthyroidism and the four metabolites(IVW: P>0.05). Validation from FinnGen Biospecimen Library and UKB Biospecimen Library confirmed these findings. Conclusions:Among 1 400 blood metabolites, pregnenediol disulfate showed a positive correlation with hypothyroidism. In contrast, 1-(1-enyl-palmitoyl)-2-linoleoyl-GPE and linoleic-arachidonic glycerin exhibited negative correlations with hypothyroidism, while glutamine showed a negative correlation with hyperthyroidism. This study offers insights into the pathogenesis, early screening, and treatment of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.

Background and Aims:Body mass index(BMI),an important indicator of nutrition and health,is closely associated with postoperative complications.This study was performed to investigate the relationship between preoperative BMI and severe complications in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatolithiasis,aiming to provide preoperative guidance for clinicians,reduce the risk of postoperative complications,and ensure surgical safety and efficacy.Methods:The clinical data of 484 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent liver resection between May 2006 and December 2022 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital were retrospectively collected.Patients were classified into low BMI group(≤18.4 kg/m2),normal BMI group(18.5-24.9 kg/m2),and high BMI group(≥25.0 kg/m2)based on preoperative BMI.Baseline characteristics,overall complications,severe complications,and other postoperative outcomes were compared between the normal BMI group and the low group as well as the high BMI group.Risk factors for severe complications after liver resection were analyzed.Results:Among the 484 patients,79(16.3％)were in the low BMI group,328(67.8％)in the normal BMI group,and 77(15.9％)in the high BMI group.The high BMI group had significantly higher ASA score,preoperative albumin level,and proportion of hypertension compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Baseline characteristics in the low BMI group showed no significant differences compared to the normal BMI group(all P＞0.05).The incidence rates of overall complications were not significantly among the three groups(P＞0.05).However,the high BMI group had significantly higher incidence rates of severe complications(Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ),postoperative infections,liver failure,and bile leakage compared to the normal BMI group;the low BMI group had significantly higher rates of perioperative blood transfusion,postoperative infections,liver failure,and reoperation compared to the normal BMI group(all P＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses identified high BMI and preoperative total bilirubin ≥54 pmol/L as independent risk factors for severe complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis(both P＜0.05).Conclusion:Preoperative BMI is closely associated with the occurrence of complications after liver resection in patients with hepatolithiasis,with high BMI being an independent risk factor for severe complications.To mitigate the risk of severe complications,clinical practice should prioritize monitoring and management of individuals with high BMI and other risk factors

Background and Aims:Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(pCCA)is associated with poor prognosis.Radical resection remains the mainstay of treatment;however,high recurrence rates and limited overall survival(OS)after surgery.Metabolic syndrome(MetS)has been linked to unfavorable outcomes in various malignancies,but its impact on postoperative outcomes in pCCA is unclear.This study aimed to evaluate the influence of MetS on perioperative and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing radical resection for pCCA.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 223 patients who underwent radical resection for pCCA at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University between January 2018 and December 2023.Patients were categorized into a MetS group(n=50)and a non-MetS group(n=173)according to diagnostic criteria.Perioperative complications,overall survival(OS),and recurrence-free survival(RFS)were compared between groups.Prognostic factors were identified using multivariate analysis.Results:No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding median hospital stay,overall complications,or severe complications(all P＞0.05).The 1-,3-,and 5-year OS rates in the MetS group were 62.3％,22.3％,and 0,respectively,compared with 78.2％,39.5％,and 22.0％in the non-MetS group.Corresponding RFS rates were 46.2％,16.9％,and 0 in the MetS group vs.63.8％,29.6％,and 18.8％in the non-MetS group.Median OS and RFS were significantly shorter in the MetS group than in the non-MetS group(15.0 vs.27.0 months;12.0 vs.21.0 months;P=0.021 and P=0.037,respectively).Multivariate analysis identified MetS and major vascular invasion as independent predictors of OS,while MetS,jaundice,R0 resection,and major vascular invasion were independent predictors of RFS(all P＜0.05).Conclusion:MetS is significantly associated with worse long-term survival and higher recurrence risk after radical resection for pCCA.Incorporating MetS into preoperative assessment and postoperative management strategies may help improve patient outcomes.
