OBJECTIVE To investigate the current situation of pharmaceutical clinic service in medical institutions in China and provide experience and suggestions for promoting the development of pharmaceutical clinics. METHODS Questionnaire survey was used to investigate the development of pharmaceutical clinics in medical institutions of 31 provinces （autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government） in March to April 2023， and the descriptive analysis was conducted. The regression analysis was carried out for the influential factors of pharmaceutical clinic service. RESULTS A total of 1 368 questionnaires were distributed in this survey and 1 304 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective response rate of 95.32%. A total of 463 medical institutions carried out pharmaceutical clinic service， the rate of which was 35.51% （463/1 304）； the rates of pharmaceutical clinics in tertiary， secondary， primary and other medical institutions were 52.80%， 17.18% and 5.88%， respectively. The frequency of opening pharmaceutical clinics was 3.17 days per week on average， with an average of 5.99 visiting pharmacists in each medical institution. Among the visiting pharmacists， clinical pharmacists accounted for the vast majority （88.68%， 2 459/2 773）. There were various categories of pharmaceutical clinics， including joint clinics and pharmacist-independent clinics； among pharmacist-independent clinics， pharmaceutical specialty/specialty disease clinics were the main ones， accounting for 89.72% of the total number of pharmaceutical clinics. The value of pharmacists in pharmaceutical clinics was manifested in various forms， among which the proportion of medical institutions charging pharmaceutical clinics was 10.80%. The main experiences in developing pharmaceutical clinics were to attach importance to discipline construction and personnel training. The main difficulties in developing pharmaceutical clinics were low compensation levels and a shortage of talent.The number of clinical pharmacists， the number of visiting pharmacists in pharmaceutical clinics and additional compensation were positively correlated with the amount of pharmaceutical clinic services（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS In recent years， pharmaceutical clinics have made significant progress； in the future， it is still necessary to further strengthen discipline construction and talent cultivation， pay attention to the value embodiment of pharmacists， to promote the healthy development of pharmaceutical clinics.

OBJECTIVE To explore the independent risk factors of voriconazole （VCZ）-related liver injury in elderly patients with hypoproteinemia. METHODS Elderly patients with invasive fungal infection and hypoproteinemia who were hospitalized in the respiratory intensive care unit of our hospital and treated with VCZ from August 2020 to July 2023 were selected. They were divided into group A （liver injury group） and group B （non-liver injury group） based on whether the liver injury occurred after using VCZ. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between minimum concentration （cmin） of VCZ and inflammatory factor[C-reactive protein （CRP）， procalcitonin （PCT）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）]， as well as liver function [alanine transaminase （ALT）， aspartate transaminase （AST）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase （GGT）， total bilirubin （TBIL）]； univariate analysis was performed by using χ 2 test； Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of liver injury. RESULTS A total of 320 patients were included in the study， of whom 56 developed liver injury， with an incidence of 17.50%. The VCZ cmin in group A was significantly higher than group B （P＝ 0.021）. CRP， PCT， IL-6， and TBIL were correlated with VCZ cmin （P＜0.05）. CRP， PCT， IL-6， and TBIL had a significant impact on VCZ cmin （P＜0.05）. VCZ cmin， PCT， and TBIL were independent risk factors for liver injury （P＜0.05）. The patients with VCZ cmin≥3.76 mg/L had a significantly increased risk of liver injury. CONCLUSIONS VCZ cmin， PCT， and TBIL are independent risk factors for the occurrence of liver injury in elderly patients with hypoproteinemia. For patients with high PCT and TBIL， VCZ cmin and liver function should be closely monitored during VCZ treatment to reduce the risk of liver injury.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection among family members, and analyze associated risk factors. Methods:The current investigation was a cross-sectional study. The Qinghai region was stratified into urban areas, agricultural areas, and pastoral areas. The urban areas of Xining City, the agricultural areas of Haidong City, and the pastoral areas of Haibei Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture were selected. A total of 396 resident families (1 131 people) who underwent health checkups from 2021 to 2022 in the above areas were included in the survey study. Questionnaires were administered and H. pylori infection was detected using the 13C-urea breath test. Numerical data were expressed as cases and percentages, and the Chi-square test was used to compare differences in H. pylori infection rates in the populations and families in each group. Multifactorial logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors for H. pylori infection, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The prevalence of H. pylori infection in Qinghai province was 52.8% (597/1 131) and the prevalence of H. pylori infection in households was 80.6% (319/396). In H. pylori-positive households with at least 1 infected spouse, 40.4% (36/89) had only 1 infected spouse, and in 59.6% (53/89) both spouses were infected. In analysis of children infected by parents with H. pylori, 20.0% (9/45) of households had fathers and children infected, 48.9% (22/45) had mothers and children infected, and 31.1% (14/45) had both parents and children infected. In univariate analysis there was a statistically significant difference in the overall comparison of H. pylori infection rates among families with different numbers of people living together ( χ2=11.12, P=0.004), and between-group comparisons suggested that H. pylori infection rates were higher in families with 4 or 5 people and more than 5 people living together than in families with 2 or 3 people living together. The H. pylori infection rate was higher in families that did not use serving chopsticks and spoons during family meals than in families that did use serving chopsticks and spoons ( χ2=6.12, P=0.013). In multifactorial logistic regression analyses the number of people living together in a family and whether or not serving chopsticks and spoons were used at family meals were associated with H. pylori infection ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The H. pylori infection rate in families in Qinghai Province is high, and there is a clear association with family aggregation. It is more common for both members of a couple to be infected, and H. pylori infection of a mother has a greater effect on the children′s infection status than H. pylori infection of a father. The infection rate of H. pylori was lower in families that used serving chopsticks and spoons during dinner gatherings, and the fewer the number of people living together in the family, the lower the H. pylori infection rate.

Background In the Global Burden of Disease research, it has been found that atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) pollution significantly harms human health. Currently, there is limited research on polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) that exhibit high toxicity effects in PM_2.5 . Objective By studying the spatiotemporal distribution and variation characteristics of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in Pudong area of Shanghai, to assess the associated population health risk. Methods This study set up 28 sampling points in Pudong area. One sample of PM_2.5 was collected during winter (February 2022) and summer (July 2022) at each site, with a sampling period lasting 24 h. The concentration of PM_2.5 was measured by membrane filter method, and the content of 17 kinds of 2,3,7,8-substituted chlorinated PCDD/Fs in the samples was analyzed using isotope dilution. Seasonal variations (winter and summer) in the concentrations of PM_2.5 and PCDD/Fs were evaluated, sources of PCDD/Fs pollution were tracing by principal component analysis, and health risks to the population from respiratory exposure to PCDD/Fs were estimated by VLIER-HUMAAN model. Results The PM_2.5 concentrations in the 28 samples ranged from 10 to 126 μg·m⁻³, while the concentrations of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 ranged from 58 to 2625 fg·m⁻³. The concentration of PM_2.5 during winter (11-126 μg·m⁻³) was higher than that during summer (10-60 μg·m⁻³). The concentration range of PCDD/Fs in winter was from 58 to 2625 fg·m⁻³, which corresponded to a range of toxic equivalent quantity (WHO-TEQ) concentration from 2.99 to 40.97 fg·m⁻³ when taking World Health Organization's toxic equivalency factor (WHO-TEQ); the concentration range of PCDD/Fs in summer was from 72 to 446 fg·m⁻³, which corresponded to a range of WHO-TEQ concentration from 2.66 to 16.61 fg·m⁻³. This range in summer was significantly lower than that observed in winter. The results of principal component analysis revealed that waste incineration was the primary source of PCDD/Fs in winter PM_2.5 in the area, whereas traffic emissions emerged as the main source in summer. The assessment of Pudong residents' respiratory exposure to PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 showed significantly higher exposure of children in summer and winter than that of adults, indicating higher susceptibility of children to air pollutants. Both the hazard ratios (HR) for children and adults were below 1, while the cancer risks (CR) ranged from 8.41×10⁻⁸ to 2.35×10⁻⁶. Notably, during winter, the CR at 4 locations slightly exceeds 1×10⁻⁶, indicating a potential carcinogenic risk. Conclusion The overall pollution level of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in Pudong area is relatively low, but it shows clear seasonal patterns. Waste incineration and traffic are the main sources of PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 in the area. Although the cancer risk of exposure to PCDD/Fs in PM_2.5 for children or adults is relatively low, there is a certain risk at some locations in winter, necessitating additional monitoring and control.

Objective:To understand the clinical characteristics of stenotrophomonas maltophilia（SMA）infections in pediatric patients.Methods:This was a retrospective observational study.The children diagnosed with SMA infections between January 2018 and June 2023 at Shanghai Children's Medical Center were selected as the study population.The clinical characteristics of patients were analyzed.According to the outcome,the patients were categorized into survival and death groups to compare the clinical characteristics.Results:A total of 70 patients were included in the study,including 23 females and 47 males,with an onset age of 9.0 (3.0,12.6) years old.Sixty-five (92.9%) patients had underlying malignancies，primarily hematologic and solid tumors,of which 24(34.3%) cases underwent bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,and 18(25.7%) cases underwent chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy (CAR-T).Forty (57.1%) cases of SMA infection sites were respiratory infections,19 (27.1%) cases were bloodstream infections,and 11 (15.7%) cases were soft tissue infections.Prior to infection，33（47.14%）patients were treated with glucocorticoids and 63（90.0%）patients with carbapenems.Eventually，39（55.7%）patients were discharged,while 31 patients died,with a mortality rate of 44.3%.Minocycline（100.0%），levofloxacin（98.1%），co-trimoxazole（96.2%），and cefoperazone/sulbactam（94.0%）showed high sensitivity rates to SMA.Compared with the survival group,the death group had a younger age [11.9 (8.4,13.8) years vs.6.3 (2.1,10.0) years],longer hospitalization before infection and duration after stem cell transplantation [28 (23,46) d vs.25 (16,34) d,140 (93，221) d vs.24 (12,49) d],and a higher proportion of pre-infection ICU admission,pre-infection glucocorticoids usage,receiving CAR-T treatment and lymphoma as the underlying disease [26 (83.9%) cases vs.15 (38.46%) cases,22 (71.0%) cases vs.11 (28.2%) cases,13 (41.9%) cases vs.5(12.8%) cases,11（35.5%）cases vs.3（7.7%）cases],and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:SMA infection pose a serious risk to pediatric patients with malignancies,compromised immune systems and exposured to broad-spectrum antibiotics.SMA maintains excellent sensitivity to compound sulfamethoxazole，minocycline，levofloxacin，and cefoperazone/sulbactam in pediatric patients.The mortality rate of SMA infection is very high，with longer pre-infection hospitalization，pre-infection ICU admission，pre-infection glucocorticoids usage，older onset age，longer duration after stem cell transplantation,receiving CAR-T treatment and lymphoma as the underlying disease possibly associated with post infection mortality

ObjectiveTo understand the incidence and death of female breast cancer patients and the premature death caused by breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai， and to reduce the incidence of breast cancer， mortality and the probability of early death， and to provide reference for realizing the control target of the probability of early death of major chronic diseases. MethodsThe incidence and death data of the registered female residents with breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai from 2004 to 2019 were collected using Shanghai Population-based tumor registration management system. The crude incidence rate， standardized incidence rate， crude mortality rate， standardized mortality rate， age-specific incidence rate， age-specific mortality rate and other indicators were calculated. The Joinpoint regression model was used to calculate the annual percentage change （APC） and average annual percentage change （AAPC） of breast cancer incidence， mortality and premature death probability， and to analyze the changing trend. ResultsFrom 2004 to 2019， the crude incidence of breast cancer in Putuo District of Shanghai increased from 75.76/10⁵ to 95.77/10⁵ （APC=2.26%， t=6.05， P<0.01）， while the standardized incidence did not decrease significantly during 2004‒2008 （APC=-4.83%， t=-1.81， P=0.10） and showed an upward trend after 2008 （APC=1.67%， t=2.84， P=0.02）. The crude mortality rate changed from 18.52 per 10⁵ to 21.63 per 10⁵ （APC= 1.51%， t=1.52， P=0.15）， and the standardized mortality rate decreased from 9.91/10⁵ to 7.44/10⁵ （APC=-1.46%， t=-2.43， P=0.03）. The incidence rate in the group of 30‒69 years increased from 98.39/10⁵ to 111.75/10⁵ （APC=1.14%， t=3.05， P=0.01）， and the mortality rate increased from 16.13/10⁵ to 19.30/10⁵ （APC=0.48%， t=0.84， P=0.41）. The incidence rate of patients aged ≥70 years varied from 165.68/10⁵ to 139.53/10⁵ （APC=1.54%， t=1.25， P=0.23）， and the mortality rate changed from 85.08/10⁵ to 56.64/10⁵ （APC=-0.18%， t=-0.08， P=0.94）. The probability of premature death from breast cancer decreased from 7.73‰ to 6.61‰ （APC=-1.56%， t=-2.30， P=0.04）. ConclusionThe risk of female breast cancer morbidity and death can not be ignored， and the control pressure of premature death probability is still large. Attention should be paid to the age group of 30‒69 years old， and further measures should be taken to control the increase of incidence and to reduce mortality， so as to reduce the probability of premature death of female breast cancer， and promote the realization of the overall control goal of premature death probability.

OBJECTIVE Nowadays, the development of pharmacy discipline has a new trend, which is reflected in the close connection with the national strategy, the integration of basic and applied research, the high degree of discipline intersection, the long achievement cycle, and the high career access, etc. The traditional model of pharmacy talent cultivation can no longer meet the needs of the development of pharmacy discipline and the creation of new drugs in the new era, therefore, it puts forward new paths of the cultivation of innovative talents in pharmacy.

POEMS syndrome is a rare plasma cell dysplasia. Its clinical manifestations include polyneuropathy, monoclonal protein, increased extravascular volume load, endocrinopathy, organomegaly and skin changes. The complex and atypical symptoms at presentation make early diagnosis challenging due to multiple system involvement. Peripheral neuropathy, limb numbness, is the most common initial symptom of this disease. However, case reports of increased extravascular volume load are rare. This article collected and analyzed the clinical data of two groups of patients with different initial symptoms (increased extravascular volume load and limb numbness). The clinical characteristics and treatment responses were summarized.
