Viral myocarditis(VMC)is a type of myocarditis caused by Coxsackievirus B3(CVB3)infection.Its pathogenesis is complex that includes direct viral action,host immune and inflammatory response,myocardial structure and function remodeling.The therapeutic effect of single target drugs is limited,while traditional Chinese medicine not only has antiviral effects,but also demon-strates systematic advantages in intervening in VMC due to its"multi-component,multi-target,and multi-pathway"characteristics.This article reviews the pathogenic mechanisms of CVB3-induced VMC,clarifies the interaction between CVB3 and host cells,and ex-plores the intervention mechanisms and developments of traditional Chinese medicine interventions for CVB3-induced VMC.At the same time,the prospects of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for CVB3-induced VMC in this study suggest that future research should strengthen the analysis of multi-target synergistic mechanisms based on traditional Chinese medicine formulas,combine artifi-cial intelligence,genomics,and gene editing technologies to predict drug-target interaction networks,establish standardized and per-sonalized system for integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment plans,and provide more effective strategies for the prevention and treatment of VMC.

Objective To explore the factors affecting the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after percuta-neous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with acute coronary syndromes(ACS),to establish a risk prediction model,and to test the prediction effect.Methods 480 ACS patients who underwent PCI in Western Theater Air Force Hospital of PLA from August 2022 to February 2024 were selected as study subjects and were divided into 336 cases in the construct group and 144 cases in the validation group according to the ratio of 7:3.The data of the construct group were used to construct the model,and the validation group was used to validate the model.The patients in the constructed group were divided into 84 cases in the occurrence group and 252 cases in the non-occurrence group according to whether they had experienced postoperative transient arrhythmia,and the validation group was divided into 36 cases in the occurrence group and 108 cases in the non-occurrence group.The baseline data of the study subjects in the two groups were observed,and the predictive value of continuous variables was analyzed using the ROC experiment;the influencing factors of the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after PCI in ACS patients were analyzed using multifactorial logistic regression;the Nomogram prediction model was constructed using the R language;and the model was evaluated and validated using calibration curves and decision curves.Results The results of a one-way analysis of the constructed group showed that older age,the presence of a history of diabetes mellitus,the time from onset to admission≥6 h,and higher BNP levels were the main risk factors for the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after PCI in patients with ACS(P<0.05),and the prediction model established accordingly had an AUC of 0.865 and a 95%CI of 0.804～0.927,which was effective in predicting the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after PCI in patients with ACS.The model performed well in predicting the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after PCI,with a C-index of 0.858(0.753～0.865),and provided a good stan-dardized net benefit when its risk threshold was between 0.10 to 0.96.The validation group ROC curve and calibra-tion curve results are good,with an AUC of 0.846 and a C-index of 0.840(0.737～0.851),suggesting that the model has a good external predictive efficacy.The results of the validation group decision curve analysis indicated that the model could provide better standardized net returns when the risk threshold was between 0.06 and 0.94.Conclusion The results of univariate analysis showed that older age,the presence of a history of diabetes melli-tus,onset-to-admission time≥6 h,and higher BNP levels were the main risk factors for the occurrence of transient arrhythmia after PCI in patients with ACS,and the Nomogram model constructed on the basis of these four influenc-ing factors could effectively predict the risk of transient arrhythmia after PCI in patients with ACS.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the current status of position training for clinical pharmacists in China and provide references for the continuous optimization of such training programs.METHODS SinoMed,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang Data were electronically searched to collect position training of clinical pharmacists studies from the inception until November 5th 2024.After data extraction and quality evaluation,descriptive analysis was performed on the results of the included studies.RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS A total of 68 pieces of relevant literature were included in the study.Among them,50 studies reported on training content,49 involved the allocation of teaching resources in the bases,48 addressed training methods,and 39 focused on training evaluation;only 2 studies mentioned faculty development.There were notable variations in the clinical pharmacist training programs across different bases,particularly in the allocation of teaching resources,such as the composition of the teaching team and the utilization of auxiliary teaching tools.Additionally,differences existed in training approaches,such as those employing a single method versus a blended approach.Conversely,the core training content of each base generally revolved around clinical pharmacy practice,demonstrating a degree of consistency.Moreover,the overall emphasis on teacher training and assessment tended to be obviously insufficient.Each base can focus on enhancing the competence of clinical pharmacists by allocating teaching resources,selecting training methods,improving training content,and using evaluation tools,to further enhance the quality of clinical pharmacist training.

Objective:A mouse model of pancreatitis induced by coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) was established. The pathological change of pancreas and the infiltration of Th17/Treg cells were observed.Methods:The BALB/c mice were inoculated intraperitoneally with CVB3 to induce acute viral pancreatitis model. Then the pathological changes of pancreas were observed by HE staining; the viral RNA load and relative expression of cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-6 and IL-17) mRNA were detected by q-PCR; the proportion of infiltrated CD45 + CD3 + T cells, CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, Th17 and Treg cells in the pancreas was determined by flow cytometry. Results:Three days after CVB3 infection, the viral RNA load in pancreas was the highest (0.96±0.18) and gradually decreased with prolongation of infection. Compared with the 3 dpi group, the viral RNA load in pancreas was decreased (0.96±0.18 vs. 0.62±0.14) at 7 dpi, but there was no statistically significant difference. In addition, the infiltration of immune cell in pancreas increased significantly after 7dpi and the pathological score >2. The percent of infiltrated Th17 cells (1.05±0.21 vs. 22.13±5.79) and Treg cells (3.11±0.78 vs. 8.25±1.30) among CD4 + T cells significantly increased after infection (P<0.05), and the Th17/Treg also increased (P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the relative mRNA expression of IFN-γ (1.05±0.23 vs. 672.6±47.67), IL-6 (1.00±0.38 vs. 68.28±4.57), and IL-17 (1.01±0.11 vs. 54.15±7.94) in pancreas increased at 7 days after CVB3 infection ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The infiltration of Th17/Treg cells and the expression of related cytokines related cytokines IL-6 and IL-17 mRNA were upregulated in pancreas, which promoted the process of CVB3-induced pancreatitis.

Objective:To analyze the association of respiratory syncytial virus infection with meteorological factors and to predict and explain the trends.Methods:Data of cases with severe acute respiratory infections in hospitalized children in Xuzhou City were collected from 2015-2021. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) was detected by real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction. The result were statistically analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software, including constructing a negative binomial regression model to explore meteorological factors that impact RSV detection and a multivariate time series model to predict its epidemiological trend from 2020 to 2021.Results:A total of 1 663 samples of children with severe acute respiratory infections were collected from 2015to 2021, of which 218 (13.1%) were positive for RSV. Seasonal effects on RSV detection were evident: there was a 1-year cycle with a peak in winter (December-February) and a trough in summer (June-August). The negative binomial regression analysis showed that monthly mean temperature, monthly mean relative humidity, and monthly total sunshine hours may influenced RSV detection. The prediction result of the time series model with sunshine hours as the covariate showed that the prediction was better for 2020, and the actual values were close to the predicted values. The expected trends in 2021 were consistent, but the actual values were higher than predicted.Conclusions:Monthly mean temperature, monthly mean relative humidity, and monthly total sunshine hours may influence RSV detection in the Xuzhou region.A prediction model can be built using data from 2015-2019, where deviations in the predicted values for 2021, reflecting that disease prevalence is multifactorial correlated, suggest a possible rise in RSV prevalence in the future.

Objective:To establish a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR for the detection of torque teno virus types 7 (TTV7), 8 (TTV8) and 10 (TTV10) and analyze its performance in clinical sample detection.Methods:Specific primers were designed based on the gene sequences of TTV7, TTV8 and TTV10 in GenBank. Recombinant plasmids of pMD19-T-TTV7, pMD19-T-TTV8 and pMD19-T-TTV10 were constructed and used as positive standard control to establish a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR based on FAM-Eclipse probe method. The specificity and sensitivity of the established method were evaluated. Moreover, it was validated in terms of clinical sample detection.Results:The standard curve equations of the real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR for detecting TTV7, TTV8 and TTV10 were y=-0.340 2 x+ 114.780 0 ( R2=0.998 8), y=-0.351 1 x+ 114.940 0 ( R2=0.995 3) and y=-0.348 9 x+ 115.020 0 ( R2=0.991 7), respectively, and there was no cross-reaction with other viruses. The detection sensitivity of the established method for TTV7, TTV8 and TTV10 were 108 copies/μl, 84 copies/μl and 98 copies/μl, and the positive detection rates in clinical pediatric serum samples were 10.9%, 2.1% and 4.3%, respectively. Conclusions:The established real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR for detection of TTV7, TTV8 and TTV10 was featured by strong specificity and high sensitivity, which could be used for rapid TTV detection in clinical serum samples.

Objective:To investigate the incidence and clinical characteristics of Kawasaki disease complicated with arthritis, and explore the relationship with coronary artery disease.Methods:Patients diagnosed with Kawasaki disease at Xiamen Children′s Hospital from January 2015 to June 2020 were included in this study.They were divided into the arthritis group( n=53) and the non-arthritis group( n=401), depending on whether complicated with arthritis.Demographic, clinical symptoms, and laboratory results were retrospectively analyzed. Results:A total of 454 children were included in this study with 53 cases acomplicated with arthritis.There were 32 male cases and 21 female cases.The average age of arthritis group was(5.89±1.35) y, which was older than non-arthritis group[(4.28±1.25) y, P=0.026]. Among the 53 cases of arthritis group, 36 cases (67.92%)of small jiont arthritis, 14 cases(26.41%)of coxitis, ten cases(18.87%)of carpitis, eight cases(15.09%)of gonitis, four cases(7.55%)of anconitis, and three cases(5.66%) of ankle arthritis were involved.There was a statistic difference in the prevalence of intravenous immunogloblin(IVIG)resistant between arthritis group and non-arthritis group(14 cases, 26.14% vs.43 cases, 10.72%, P=0.002). The inflammatory markers(CRP, TNF-α, IL-6) of the arthritis group were significantly higher than those in the non-arthritis group, and the differences were statistically significant( P<0.05, respectively). The incidence of coronary artery disease in the arthritis group(60.38%, 32/53) was higher than that in the non-arthritis group(52.37%, 210/401), but the difference was not statistically significant( P>0.05). Conclusion:Kawasaki disease with arthritis in children is self-limited, with no sequelae.Patients in the arthritis group have a higher rate of IVIG resistance and higher levels of inflammatory markers, but no significant difference in the incidence of coronary artery disease compared with those without arthritis.

Objective:To construct the dual-luciferase reporter vector for identification of internal ribosome entry site (IRES).Methods:The hairpin structure was inserted between Renilla luciferase (R-Luc) and Firefly luciferase (F-Luc) genes based on psiCHECK-2 to form plasmid psiCHECK-IRES. IRES of Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) was inserted between the hairpin structure and F-Luc genes of psiCHECK-IRES to form vector psiCHECK-IRES-EMCV. After psiCHECK-IRES-EMCV or psiCHECK-IRES was transfected into BHK-21 cells respectively, expressions of F-Luc and R-Luc were detected by RT-qPCR. Then Luciferase activity of transfected cells was detected with the dual-luciferase reporter assay system at 24 h post-transfection.Results:The hairpin structure was successfully inserted into psiCHECK-2 to form psiCHECK-IRES by sequencing. RT-qPCR result showed that there were the approximate expressing levels of mRNA between F-Luc and R-Luc. The result indicated that no aberrant monocistronic transcripts, which caused false positive F-Luc readings, were produced. Then IRES of EMCV was introduced into psiCHECK-IRES to form psiCHECK-IRES-EMCV. The F-Luc/R-Luc ratio in psiCHECK-IRES-EMCV-transfected cells was 53.35 times that of psiCHECK-IRES-transfected cells. The result confirmed that IRES of EMCV initiated effectively the translation of F-Luc.Conclusions:Dual-luciferase reporter vector psiCHECK-IRES was successfully constructed, which could be used to validate viruses and eukaryotic genes, the translation thereof was IRES-dependent.
