OBJECTIVE To construct a closed-loop management model for externally dispensed intravenous prescriptions, and to provide reference for standardized management of externally dispensed intravenous prescriptions. METHODS Based on the Expert Consensus on Closed-loop Management of Externally Dispensed Intravenous Prescriptions in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region previously formulated by our hospital, risk points during the entire process were systematically identified through multidisciplinary team brainstorming and a fishbone diagram. A series of strategies were subsequently formulated and implemented, including qualifying designated external dispensing pharmacies and the drug catalogs, operating and maintaining the hospital information system and the Pharmacy Intravenous Admixture Service (PIVAS) intelligent management platform, and strengthening differentiated training for staff in the whole workflow. A whole-process closed-loop management system was constructed with PIVAS as the co re hub and the daytime chemotherapy center as the safety terminal. RESULTS A total of 3 cooperating pharmacies and an initial drug list comprising 35 product specifications were selected. A closed‑loop management process encompassing hospital outpatient prescribing, patient drug purchase in designated pharmacies, PIVAS drug dispensing, and medication use in daytime chemotherapy center was successfully established. This system enabled the mandatory grouping and association of externally dispensed intravenous prescriptions with in-hospital diluents, full-process verification based on drug traceability codes, intelligent monitoring of infusion parameters, and whole-process data traceability. CONCLUSIONS The constructed model effectively resolves the coordination and safety oversight during the use of externally dispensed intravenous drugs from out-of-hospital circulation to in-hospital use, and has preliminarily enabled procedural standardization, whole-process information traceability, and proactive control of medication risks.

To analyze the clinical and genetic features of oculopharyngodistal myopathy (OPDM) patients and compare the phenotypic differences among various causative genes. A total of 65 genetically confirmed OPDM patients from 43 unrelated families, who were admitted to the Department of Neurology, Peking University First Hospital between January 2008 and December 2025, were retrospectively included.The general demographic data, clinical manifestations, laboratory/auxiliary examinations, muscle pathology, and genetic test results were systematically collected and analyzed. The clinical and pathological characteristics among different OPDM subtypes were compared. Among the 65 patients(39 male and 26 female), the mean age of onset was (31.20±10.43) years (range: 14 to 63 years). The initial symptom was predominantly distal limb weakness (67.44%), which gradually progressed to involve the extraocular muscles, pharyngeal muscles, facial muscles and proximal limb muscles. Serum creatine kinase levels were mildly to moderately elevated. Muscle pathological examinations revealed rimmed vacuoles and intranuclear inclusions (within muscle fibers). The mean duration from onset to diagnosis was (12.33±7.88) years (range: 1 to 32 years). All probands had negative results on conventional next-generation whole-exome sequencing; pathogenic variants were identified through third-generation long-read sequencing or OPDM-targeted repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction(RP-PCR). Among the 43 families, OPDM2 subtype was the most common genetic subtype ( OPDM2 was the predominant subtype in this study. All subtypes share similar age of onset and muscular pathological changes, yet exhibit distinct disease progression patterns. Future multicenter prospective cohort studies are warranted to further elucidate the clinical characteristics, pathogenetic mechanisms, and prognostic differences among OPDM subtypes.

Objective To construct a dynamic prediction model for JC polyomavirus (JCV) reactivation after kidney transplantation. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 128 recipients who met the inclusion criteria and received kidney transplantation in Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, from June 2021 to December 2024. Dynamic Cox regression and dynamic restricted mean survival time (RMST) regression based on the landmark method were adopted to establish the dynamic prediction models, and Monte Carlo cross-validation was used to evaluate model performance. Results The dynamic models could predict the incidence and onset time of JCV reactivation within the subsequent 3 months according to covariates at each landmark time point from the 1st to the 6th month after transplantation. Remuzzi score, body mass index and warm ischemia time were independent risk factors for JCV reactivation, while a history of urinary BK polyomavirus reactivation served as a protective factor. The median values of the area under the curve, C-index and Brier score of the dynamic Cox model were 0.873, 0.851 and 0.065 respectively, and the C-index of the dynamic RMST model was 0.829, all of which were superior to those of the static model. Conclusions The landmark-based dynamic models exhibit excellent predictive performance, which may integrate baseline data and post-transplant follow-up information to realize dynamic assessment of the risk and time window of JCV reactivation, thereby providing evidence for optimizing post-operative monitoring and individualized intervention strategies.

In the context of global warming, protecting outdoor workers from occupational heat exposure has become an important public health concern. This review summarized the principle, applicability, and limitation of three categories of wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) prediction models: empirical regression models, heat-balance models, and machine-learning models. Drawing on international experience from the United States, Europe, and Japan, this review further examined the technical challenges of applying WBGT-based prediction models to large-scale occupational heat stress early warning systems. In response to gaps in occupational heat stress management in China, WBGT should be considered a core assessment indicator to support a transition from passive response to proactive intervention. A localized implementation pathway is proposed, incorporating mechanism-based model calibration, regional parameter adaptation, and multi-source data fusion. Strengthening collaboration between public health and meteorological departments and developing platform-based flexible intervention strategies for workers in new forms of employment may improve the targeting of occupational heat stress early warning and health protection. Future research should focus on physics-constrained machine learning, refined microenvironmental prediction, and individualized risk assessment to support the development of a digitally enabled occupational heat-health protection framework.

Objective:To describe the clinical and pathological features of patients with myofasciitis.Methods:The clinical manifestations and auxiliary examination (laboratory, electromyogram, imaging and muscle biopsy) results of 52 patients with myofasciitis diagnosed by pathology at Peking University First Hospital from August 2002 to December 2024 were collected and analyzed.Results:Among the 52 patients (33 males and 19 females), the age of disease onset was (34.4±16.4) years (6.0-73.0 years) and the disease duration was 17.7 (0.3, 120.0) months; the main symptoms included myalgia in the distal limbs (28 cases, 53.8%), diffuse cutaneous or muscle sclerosis (21 cases, 40.4%), muscle weakness (22 cases, 42.3%) and limited joint activity (23 cases, 44.2%); 12 patients (23.1%) were combined with other diseases. All patients had no history of vaccination. Laboratory examinations showed that 80.8% (21/26) of patients had elevated C-reactive protein, 80.0% (20/25) had elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and 26.5% (9/34) had elevated creatine kinase. Among 19 patients undergoing electromyography, 6 cases showed myogenic changes, 4 cases showed neurogenic changes, 1 case showed both myogenic and neurogenic changes, and 8 cases showed no obvious abnormality. Myofascial edema was observed in all 15 patients who underwent muscle magnetic resonance imaging, with partial involvement of adjacent muscles in some cases. According to myopathological changes, the 52 patients were divided into macrophagic myofasciitis in 41 cases (78.8%), lymphocytic myofasciitis in 7 cases (13.5%), and eosinophilic fasciitis in 4 cases (7.7%). Among the 52 patients, fibroblast proliferation in the myofascia was present in 39 cases (75.0%), subfascial muscle fiber atrophy in 28 cases (53.8%), and scattered muscle fiber necrosis and regeneration in 15 cases (28.8%). Major histocompatibility complex class Ⅰexpression on muscle fibers was positive in 89.5% (34/38) of patients, and membrane attack complex deposition on muscle fibers and/or capillary walls was present in 39.5% (15/38) of patients. Among 25 patients with follow-up, all received low-dose oral glucocorticoids, and 7 additionally received methotrexate, intravenous immunoglobulin, or hydroxychloroquine. During follow-up, 22 patients showed clinical improvement, 1 patient remained stable, and 2 patients died.Conclusions:Non-vaccine-associated macrophagic myofasciitis is the most common pathological subtype of myofasciitis. A few patients are concomitant with other diseases. Muscle magnetic resonance imaging is helpful in the diagnosis of the disease. Most patients respond to immunosuppressive treatment.

A centrifugation-free,single-reaction colorimetric method for detection of glucose,utilizing a dual nanozyme cascade system based on gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)and iron-doped carbon dots(FeCDs),was developed in this work.The AuNPs exhibited glucose oxidase-like activity to catalyze glucose oxidation for generation of H2O2,while the FeCDs demonstrated peroxidase-like activity to subsequently catalyze the H2O2-mediated oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB).To prevent interference from the blue signal generated by self-aggregation of AuNPs in subsequent quantitative detection,the reaction system was terminated with HCl,converting oxTMB into a stable yellow product.Based on changes in the absorbance at 450 nm of this yellow solution,a quantitative relationship was established between glucose concentration and absorbance at 450 nm(A450).Experimental results demonstrated that this sensor achieved a linear detection range of 44 μmol/L to 11.11 mmol/L(R2=0.993)with a detection limit of 30.68 μmol/L and spiked recoveries of 97.9%-104.7%.By integrating smartphone-based color recognition capabilities,a rapid visual detection platform was established for quantification of glucose through RGB analysis.The validation experimental results using commercial glucose injection samples further confirmed the practical application potential of this methodology.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of combined lienal polypeptide injection therapy in the treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)in children aged 3 to 14 years old in multiple clinical centers.Methods:A randomized,controlled,multi-center clinical study design was adopted.A total of 240 hospitalized children aged 3 to 14 years old with MPP from 7 hospitals from September 1,2023 to January 31,2024 were included.According to the severity of pneumonia,they were divided into the mild MPP group with 80 cases and the severe MPP/refractory MPP(SMPP/RMPP)group with 160 cases,and then randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group at a ratio of 1 ∶1,using the random number table method.After screening,subjects entered a treatment period of 5 to 7 days.The control group was treated with azithromycin,while the experimental group was treated with azithromycin plus lienal polypeptide injection .The recovery of lung CT,length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,whether mild cases developed into severe or refractory cases,duration of hormone use,use of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG),bronchoscopy treatment,and immune function were observed between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy of lienal polypeptide injection.Adverse events after medication,vital signs,blood routine,urine routine,liver function,myocardial enzymes,renal function,and electrocardiogram were observed to evaluate the safety. Results:A total of 231 subjects have completed the trial in the 7 hospitals,including 118 cases in the experimental group and 113 cases in the control group.Main observation index:the rate of lung CT aggravation in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group(2.6% vs 15.3%, P<0.01),and the difference was statistically significant.Secondary indexes:there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and immunoglobulin between the two groups(all P>0.05).However,the rate of cases of plastic bronchitis(PB)found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group(0 vs 18.8%, P=0.03),and the difference was statistically significant.Among the mild MPP(72 cases),there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and the improvement rate of lung CT between the two groups(all P>0.05).However,compared with the control group,the rate of cases developing into SMPP/RMPP in the experimental group was less(24.3% vs 48.6%, P=0.03),and the difference in IgG before and after treatment was small[0.53(-0.04,1.18)g/L vs 1.33(0.48,2.25)g/L, P=0.01].Among the SMPP/RMPP cases(159 cases),the rate of cases of PB found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was less than that in the control group(0 vs 20%, P=0.04),and the rate of cases with aggravated lung CT in the experimental group was less than that in the control group(1.3% vs 19.5%, P<0.01),and the improvement rate of lung CT in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(88.8% vs 75.3%, P=0.03),with statistically significant differences.There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and immunoglobulin between the two groups(all P>0.05).Two cases in the experimental group developed rashes,which improved after the drug was discontinued.There were no serious adverse reactions such as abnormal vital signs like dyspnea and cyanosis due to the use of lienal polypeptide injection.There were no obvious changes in blood routine,liver function,myocardial enzymes,renal function,electrocardiogram,and urine routine values before and after medication compared with the baseline. Conclusion:The combined use of lienal polypeptide injection in the treatment of MPP in children can reduce the probability of the transformation from mild cases to SMPP/RMPP,reduce the rate of aggravation of the image findings,promote the absorption of lung inflammation,reduce the rate of PB found under bronchoscopy,and has good safety.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of extended-field versus reduced-field radiotherapy in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients after radical operation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 210 UTUC patients who underwent full-length nephrectomy and received postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy in Peking University First Hospital from January 2013 to November 2023, and follow-up continued until June 2024. According to the target area of postoperative radiotherapy, patients were divided into the extended-field radiotherapy group (127 cases) and the reduced-field radiotherapy group (83 cases). The overall survival (OS), distant metastasis free survival (DMFS), local recurrence free survival (LRFS) and adverse reactions were compared. In the same period, 114 patients with recurrent abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes who did not receive adjuvant therapy after surgery for UTUC in our center were prospectively collected, and the coverage of the reduced-field target area was analyzed. Chi square test was used to compare the clinical characteristics, Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze survival outcomes, log-rank test was used to compare the survival rate, and Cox multivariate regression analysis was performed on the influencing factors of survival.Results:The median follow-up was 24.5 (range: 3-74) months. There were no significant differences between the extended-field and reduced-field radiotherapy groups in terms of 2-year LRFS (93.3% vs. 98.1%, P=0.156), 2-year DMFS (84.8% vs. 91.2%, P=0.176), and 2-year OS (90.4% vs. 90.7%, P=0.707). The most common toxicities of adjuvant radiotherapy were nausea and leukopenia, with significantly higher grade 1-2 incidence in the extended-field group compared to the reduced-field group ( P<0.05). According to the analysis of patients with retroperitoneal lymph node recurrence after surgery, the reduced-field target designed according to the location of the primary tumor can cover more than 90% of the postoperative metastatic lymph node area Multivariate analysis revealed that variant histology ( HR=2.180,95% CI: 1.021-4.658, P=0.044) was an independent predictor of worse DMFS, while variant histology ( HR=3.825,95% CI: 1.514-9.662, P=0.005) and T 3-4 stage ( HR=4.452,95% CI: 1.025-19.339, P=0.046) were independent predictors of poorer OS. Conclusions:Compared with extended-field radiotherapy, reduced-field radiotherapy designed based on primary tumor location significantly reduced treatment-related toxicities without compromising postoperative therapeutic efficacy, and the reduced-field can cover more than 90% of local recurrent lesions.
