OBJECTIVE To investigate and analyze the pharmaceutical care needs of the elderly， thus providing a reference for improving the pharmaceutical care for the elderly. METHODS Based on the Kano model， a questionnaire was designed， and 1 200 community-dwelling elderly in the main urban area of Chongqing were selected as the survey subjects. The study analyzed the attributes and urgency of their pharmaceutical care needs to put forward optimization strategies. RESULTS A total of 1 200 questionnaires were distributed in the study， and 1 062 valid questionnaires were collected， with an effective response rate of 88.50%. The gender distribution of respondents was relatively balanced， with the majority aged between 60 and 69 （43.41%）， and generally possessing a relatively low level of educational attainment. The results showed that medication education and medication consultation were must-be needs； home-based pharmaceutical care was an expected need； drug reorganization， medication monitoring， pharmaceutical science popularization， and pharmaceutical ward round were attractive needs； internet-based pharmaceutical care was indifferent need. The urgent order of demand was medication education ＞ medication consultation ＞ home-based pharmaceutical care ＞ pharmaceutical science popularization ＞ drug reorganization ＞ medication monitoring ＞ pharmaceutical ward round ＞ internet-based pharmaceutical care. CONCLUSIONS The community elderly in Chongqing have high expectations for pharmaceutical care as a whole. Medical institutions should fully guarantee the two essential needs of medication education and medication consultation， and focus on ensuring the expected needs for home-based pharmaceutical care. Efforts should be made to develop the four attractive needs of pharmaceutical science popularization， drug reorganization， medication monitoring， and pharmaceutical ward round， and actively carry out age-friendly adaptations for internet-based pharmaceutical care.

Avian infectious bronchitis(IB),a rapidly spreading and acute disease in chickens,is caused by the infectious bronchitis virus(IBV).IB is characterized by its remarkable genetic varia-bility.IBV has a high degree of mutation,and the existing means of immunization often fail to a-chieve good results,seriously affecting the development of the domestic poultry industry.This ar-ticle offers a comprehensive review of the current understanding of the immune response to IBV,focusing on three key areas:non-specific immunity,mucosal immunity,and specific immunity.By dissecting these aspects,the aim is to provide a theoretical reference for the study of the immune mechanism of IBV.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic variations of patients with aminoacylase-1 deficiency (ACY1D) caused by ACY1 gene mutations, in order to enhance clinicians′ understanding of this rare disease. Methods:Clinical and genetic data of a child with ACY1D admitted to Sir Run Run Hospital, Nanjing Medical University in December 2021 were collected. Using "aminoacylase-1 deficiency" "aminoacylase-1 gene" " ACY1" and "ACY1D" as keywords, relevant cases of ACY1 gene mutations were searched in CNKI, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, OMIM, and PubMed databases until February 2025. The clinical characteristics and types of genetic variations of previously reported ACY1D patients were summarized and analyzed. Results:The patient was an 8-year and 4-month-old boy. Clinical manifestations included growth retardation, ataxia, and focal epileptic seizures. Increased excretion of various N-acetylamino acids was observed in the urine. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed cerebellar atrophy. Whole-exome sequencing results showed a compound heterozygous mutation in the ACY1 gene: c.1063-1G>A (IVS14-1G>A) and c.170G>A (p.G57D) (reference transcript NM_000666.2), with c.170G>A (p.G57D) being a novel mutation. Family validation results showed that the c.1063-1G>A (IVS14-1G>A) mutation originated from his mother, and the c.170G>A (p.G57D) mutation originated from his father. By literature review 11 English articles were retrieved reporting 18 ACY1D patients, along with the child in this study, totaling 19 cases, with an onset age ranging from 1 week to 4 years and 6 months. Among them, 13/19 patients showed growth retardation, 9/19 patients had language disorders, 8/19 patients had intellectual disabilities, 7/19 patients had ataxia and low muscle tone, 6/19 patients had epilepsy and febrile convulsions, and 3/19 patients had irritability, autism, and muscle weakness. Genetic testing results indicated various types of mutations in the ACY1 gene, including missense, splicing, and frameshift mutations. Conclusions:ACY1D is an autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by ACY1 gene mutations, which is relatively rare in China. The main clinical manifestations include growth retardation, intellectual and language disorders. The c.170G>A heterozygous mutation is a newly discovered variant site, expanding the mutation spectrum of the ACY1 gene. Screening for ACY1 gene variations can aid in achieving a definitive diagnosis..

Objective:This study aims to evaluate the subcortical structural alteration patterns associated with five distinct neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) associated with Parkinson′s disease and provide macroscopic brain structural evidence to further explore their underlying pathophysiological mechanism.Methods:Clinical data and 3D-T 1 weighted images from 505 patients with Parkinson′s disease and 167 age-and sex-matched healthy controls were obtained from the Parkinson′s Progression Markers Initiative database (July 2010-August 2022). The subcortical nucleus volumes of the overall NPS patient group, as well as subgroups of patients with specific NPS subtypes (depression, anxiety, apathy, impulsive-compulsive behaviors (ICBs), and hallucinations), were measured and compared to those of healthy controls through mixed-effects models. Spatial similarity analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis of subcortical volume alteration patterns were employed to investigate the commonalities and specificities of subcortical damage in NPS. Results:NPS patients exhibited widespread subcortical atrophy, primarily concentrated in the bilateral putamen, bilateral hippocampus, and left amygdala (Cohen′s d=-0.38--0.12, FDR P<0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that anxiety and depression were associated with gray matter atrophy in the bilateral putamen and amygdala (Cohen′s d=-0.73--0.32, FDR P<0.05), while apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs were linked to atrophy in the bilateral putamen, bilateral amygdala, and bilateral hippocampus (Cohen′s d=-0.61--0.11, FDR P<0.05,Cohen′s d=-0.43--0.36, P<0.05). Similarity and clustering analyses demonstrated high spatial correlation between anxiety and depression ( r=0.83, P<0.01), forming one cluster, whereas apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs formed another distinct cluster. Conclusion:NPS in Parkinson′s disease exhibit both commonalities and specificities. Apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs are associated with more severe subcortical damage patterns. These findings may provide new insights into the pathophysiology and progression of Parkinson′s disease.

Background Self-perceived burden,anxiety and depression are among the most important factors affecting quality of life.At present,there is a lack of understanding on the research status and influencing factors of self-perceived burden in liver transplant recipients.Previous studies have shown that self-perceived burden,anxiety,depression and quality of life are correlated in pairs,but the effecting path among the three are not yet clear.Objective To explore the correlation of self-perceived burden and anxiety/depression with quality of life in liver transplant recipients,so as to provide guidance for psychological nursing intervention in clinical patients.Methods A total of 200 patients liver transplant recipients were enrolled from the liver transplantation inpatient and outpatient clinics of Jiangsu Province Hospital and Qinhuai Medical Area,General Hosptial of Eastern Theater Command of People's Liberation Army of China from March 2022 to February 2023.Patients were evaluated using Self-perceived Burden Scale(SPBS),Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS)and the Chinese version of Post Liver Transplant Quality of Life Questionnaire(pLTQ).Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation among the scales.A structural equation model using Mplus 8.3 was utilized to testify the relationship among self-perceived burden,anxiety/depression and quality of life in liver transplant recipients.Bootstrap method was used to test the effecting pathway.Results There were statistically significant differences in SPBS scores of liver transplant recipients with different levels of education and fannual family income(H=9.656,18.796,P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in HADS scores of liver transplant recipients with different numbers of somatic symptoms(H=9.859,P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the Chinese version of pLTQ scores of liver transplant recipients with different levels of education,postoperative survival time and numbers of somatic symptoms(H=6.892,8.023,16.099,P<0.05).The total and each dimension scores in SPBS of liver transplant recipients were positively correlated with the total score and anxiety/depression dimension scores in HADS(r=0.464～0.586,0.460～0.593,0.286～0.408,0.464～0.583,P<0.01)and negatively correlated with the total score and each dimension scores in the Chinese version of pLTQ(r=-0.572～-0.416,-0.599～-0.441,-0.365～-0.213,-0.559～-0.428,P<0.01).Structural equation model denoted that self-perceived burden negatively affected quality of life(β=-0.186,P<0.01).Anxiety/depression also negatively affected quality of life(β=-0.679,P<0.01).The self-perceived burden indirectly affected the quality of life of liver transplant recipients through anxiety and depression,with an effect value of-0.429,accounting for 69.76％of the total effect.Conclusion The quality of life in liver transplant recipients may be related to their self-perceived burden and anxiety/depression.Self-perceived burden may affect the quality of life of liver transplant patients through anxiety and depression.

We report the prenatal diagnosis and treatment of a case of primary right pulmonary deficiency. A routine ultrasound examination at 23 +6 weeks of gestation found an absent right lung, enlarged left lung, and dextroposition of the heart in a female fetus. Karyotype and chromosome microarray analysis of the amniotic fluid was normal. After multidisciplinary consultation, the pregnant woman chose to continue the pregnancy and had a normal delivery at 39 +2 gestational weeks. Apgar scores were ten at both 1 min and 5 min after birth, with no abnormal appearance of the baby, or signs of thoracic collapse other than no obvious respiratory sounds in the right lung. Both postnatal chest X-ray and CT scan indicated an undeveloped right lung. Cardiac ultrasonography revealed the absence of the right pulmonary artery and vein. The patient's breathing was stable during hospitalization and she was discharged eight days after birth. The infant was followed up at five months, and the growth and development were comparable to children of the same age.

Objective    To analyze the risk factors of the death associated with infective endocarditis, and to evaluate the timing of surgical treatment of infective endocarditis. Methods    We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 62 patients with infective endocarditis in our hospital between August 2015 and August 2017. There were 43 males and 19 females at age of 19–75 (46.1±16.6) years. The clinical data were divided into a death group and a survival group, a paravalvular leakage group and a no periannular leakage group, an emergency operation group and a non-emergency operation group.The risk factors of infective endocarditis and the choice of operation time were analyzed. Results    Three of the 62 patients (4.8%) died after surgery. Postoperative perivalvular leakage (regurgitation over 2 mm) in 8 patients, accounting for 12.9% of the total. Univariate analysis showed that albumin content, creatinine level, total cardiopulmonary bypass time and ascending aorta occlusion time were significantly associated with early postoperative mortality (P<0.05). The results of logistic analysis showed that age, preoperative albumin level, creatinine level, total cardiopulmonary bypass time, and ascending aorta occlusion time were significantly associated with early postoperative perivascular leakage (P<0.05), and long ascending aorta occlusion time is an independent risk factor for early death (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in early death and the perivalve leakage between the emergency operation and the non emergency operation. Conclusion    Patients with infective endocarditis should accept early surgical treatment. The choice of surgical approach should be selected according to the actual situation of patients. And we should pay more attention to albumin and creatinine levels in preoperative patients. In the operation, to shorten extracorporeal circulation  time and aortic clamping time can improve the prognosis of patients.
