OBJECTIVE To provide reference for constructing scientific and reasonable pharmaceutical service mode for hospitalized patients with chronic airway diseases. METHODS From October 2023 to March 2024， 250 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute exacerbation of asthma who were hospitalized in the respiratory department of Hebei General Hospital and received pharmaceutical care （PC） were randomly divided into control group （125 cases） and observation group （125 cases）. The control group received general pharmaceutical services throughout their hospitalization， while the observation group received standardized and graded pharmaceutical services throughout their hospitalization. The differences in clinical value indicators， humanistic value indicators， and quality management indicators were compared among different PC service models. RESULTS Among clinical value evaluation indicators， the observation group had better achievement rate of disease treatment goals， correct use score of inhalation devices， the incidence of adverse drug reactions， and the number of drug-related problems solved than the control group （P＜0.05）. Among the humanistic evaluation indicators， compared with the control group， the observation group had better medication compliance scores， pharmacist intervention success rates， and patient satisfaction scores （P＜0.05）. Among quality management evaluation indicators， the proportion of drug costs， the proportion of intravenous medication， the use rate of antibiotics， the intensity of antibiotic use， and the number of pharmaceutical services in the observation group were significantly better than the control group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Standardized and graded pharmaceutical care services have improved the efficiency of pharmacists and service effectiveness， making it a new pharmaceutical service model worth promoting.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of different treatment regimens as first-line treatment for metastatic urothelial carcinoma （UC） using a network meta-analysis （NMA） approach. METHODS Electronic databases including PubMed， the Cochrane Library， Embase， Wanfang Data， CNKI， and VIP were searched for randomized controlled clinical trials （RCTs） on first-line treatment for metastatic UC from January 1， 2010 to January 31， 2024. After literature screening and data extraction， a risk of bias assessment of included studies was conducted. R software （version 4.3.2） was used to perform the NMA. RESULTS A total of 11 RCTs involving 14 treatment interventions were included. No significant differences were noted in objective response rate among groups， with the combination of pembrolizumab， gemcitabine and cisplatin having the highest probability of ranking first. Regarding progression-free survival （PFS） and overall survival （OS）， no significant differences were observed among groups， while enfortumab vedotin combined with pembrolizumab showed a trend towards better PFS extension compared to gemcitabine combined with cisplatin [HR＝0.45， 95%CI（0.20，1.06）， P＝0.049]， and it had the highest probability of ranking first in both PFS and OS. CONCLUSIONS The combination of enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab may have an advantage in prolonging survival in the first-line treatments for metastatic UC.

Objective:To investigate the safety of tocilizumab (TCZ) in the treatment of children with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA).Methods:Data of children aged 2 to 18 years with the diagnosis of sJIA and treated with TCZ from June 1, 2017 to June 30, 2022 at our hospital were retrospectively collected. The clinical medication characteristics, incidence, severity and outcome of adverse drug reactions (ADR) were statistically analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the risk factors of TCZ-induced ADR. Univariate comparison between groups were compared to the measured data followed by t test for normal distribution, and the counting data were paired with Chi-square test. Binary logistic regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis. Results:A total of 83 eligible children were enrolled. The age at TCZ initiation was (8.5±3.7) years old. Most of the children received oral glucocorticoid (86.8%) and/or methotrexate (72.3%) prior to TCZ treatment. The mean time of TCZ duration was (1.2±0.9) years, the total TCZ exposure was 92.70 patient years. Fifty-five (66.3%) children reported 123 ADR, with a rate of 132.69/100 patient years. Forty-two (50.6%) children reported 103 general ADR, with a rate of 111.11/100 patient years. Eighteen (21.7%) children reported 20 serious ADR, with a rate of 21.57/100 patient years. The results of univariate analysis showed that the dosage of glucocorticoid in ADR group was higher than that in non-ADR group [(0.76±0.50) mg·kg -1·d -1vs. (0.52±0.41) mg·kg -1·d -1, t=2.27, P=0.026], and the difference was statistically significant. However, there were no significant differences in gender [(male 23, female 32) cases vs. (male 9, female 19) cases, χ2=0.73, P=0.392], age at TCZ initiation [(8.5±3.8) years old vs. (9.0±3.1) years old, t=-0.65, P=0.516], duration of TCZ treatment [(1.24±1.00) years vs. (1.05±0.90) years, t=0.87, P=0.385], methotrexate doses weekly [(8.0±5.2) mg/m 2vs. (7.6±5.1) mg/m 2, t=0.39, P=0.696], and history of drug or food allergy (11 cases vs. 5 cases, χ2=0.06, P=0.815) between the two groups. The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that the combined use of oral glucocorticoids was an independent risk factor for TCZ-induced ADR [ OR (95% CI) =3.05 (1.11, 8.36), P=0.030]. The risk of ADR was 3.05 times higher in the combined daily dose of glucocorticoids ≥0.76 mg/kg prednisone equivalent than that of < 0.76 mg/kg. Common general ADR to TCZ include infections (38.83/100 patient years) and abnormalities in laboratory parameters (37.76/100 patient years) such as elevated glutamic-pyrupiane transaminase (18.34/100 patient years), dyslipidemia (12.94/100 patient years), and hemocytopenia (5.39/100 patient years). The serious ADR included serious infection (9.71/100 patient years) and serious infusion reaction(7.55/100 patient years). All ADR were improved after drug withdrawal or symptomatic treatment, and no deaths occurred. Conclusion:TCZ has a good safety profile in the treatment of sJIA. Serious infections and severe infusion reactions often lead to discontinuation of the drug. The combination of glucocorticoids≥0.76 mg/kg prednisone equivalent is an independent risk factor for TCZ-induced ADR. Monitoring should be strengthened during the application of TCZ, and ADR should be detected and treated as early as possible to reduce the risk of medication related adverse reactions.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment of tricuspid valve prolapse caused by chordal rupture complicated with persistent pulmonary hypertension in neonates.Methods:The clinical data of a male neonate with tricuspid valve prolapse complicated with persistent pulmonary hypertension admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Children′s Hospital of Hebei Province in November 2018 was analyzed retrospectively. Related literature up to September 2020 was searched with the strategy of "(neonate OR newborn) AND (tricuspid valve prolapse) AND (rupture OR necrosis) AND (papillary muscle OR chordae tendineae) AND (pulmonary hypertension)" in Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed database in Chinese and English. The characteristics of the disease were summarized.Results:A male full-term neonate was admitted due to presenting severe cyanosis for 9 hours. He was born by caesarean section and presented severe cyanosis and dyspnea at 10 min of ages, unresponsive to the positive airway pressure resuscitation. After 9 hours of mechanical ventilation, there was no improvement. Thus he was transferred to Children′s Hospital of Hebei Province. On admission, the initial blood gas analysis showed an arterial partial pressure of oxygen of 22.5 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). The echocardiography revealed prolapsed anterior leaflet of tricuspid valve, severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and pulmonary artery hypertension, and right to left shunt via a patent foramen ovale. The arterial duct was closed. The chest X-ray was normal. The boy was treated with nitric oxide, milrinone, and continued mechanical ventilation initially. Addition of prostacyclin analog (treprostinil) on day 3 led to significant improvement of pulmonary blood flow, oxygenation, and stabilization, so that the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy was avoided. At 11 months after birth, the boy underwent cardiac surgery. At surgery, the rupture of chordal tendineae in anterior leaflet of tricuspid valve was found. Tricuspid annuloplasty, valvuloplasty and repair of patent foramen ovale were successfully performed. The follow-up echocardiogram at postoperative 3 months showed only mild tricuspid insufficiency. The boy was well at last follow-up at 22 months of age with normal cognitive skill development. According to literature, 20 cases of papillary muscle or chordae tendineae rupture in neonates had been reported in 12 English papers. Among the total 21 neonates, there were 12 male infants and only one premature infant with gestational age of 33 weeks. They presented with profound cyanosis soon after birth. All of them received endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. Other treatments included inhalation of nitric oxide, intravenous milrinone, vasoactive drugs, diuretics and prostacyclin, etc. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was used in 6 infants as a bridge to surgical treatment. Two cases reported earlier death of cardiopulmonary failure without operation and the rest 19 survived after surgery. The followed surgery or autopsy revealed that all of them had tricuspid valve prolapse, rupture of papillary muscle or chordae tendineae.Conclusions:The severe TR resulting from rupture of papillary muscle or chordate tendineae in neonates is rare and could cause severe hypoxemia. Early recognition, adequate cardiopulmonary support to stabilize the hemodynamic status and timely surgery can significantly reduce the mortality.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC). Methods The clinical data of 289 patients with PTMC from January 2013 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients underwent thyroidectomy and thyroid isthmectomy/total thyroidectomy plus central (and lateral) cervical lymph node dissection. Results In 289 patients, postoperative pathology confirmed that the central lymph node metastasis was in 118 cases (40.8% ); 64 of them performed central and lateral cervical lymph node dissection, and the rate of lateral cervical lymph node metastasis was 42.2% (27/64). The smooth curve fitting chart showed that the risk of central cervical lymph node metastasis was significantly increased when the tumor diameter ＞ 6 mm. Univariate analysis result showed that central cervical lymph node metastasis was associated with gender, number of primary lesions, unilateral and bilateral tumor, capsule invasion, tumor diameter and Hashimoto thyroiditis (P<0.05 or＜0.01); multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that the tumor diameter>6 mm was the independent risk factor for central cervical lymph node metastasis ( OR = 2.036, 95% CI 1.160 - 3.573, P = 0.013). Univariate analysis result showed that lateral cervical lymph node dissection was associated with central cervical lymph node dissection (P<0.05); multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that central cervical lymph node dissection was the independent risk factor for lateral cervical lymph node dissection in patients with PTMC ( OR=9.630, 95% CI 1.150-80.628, P=0.037). Conclusions PTMC patients with central or lateral cervical lymph node metastasis is very common, and central lymph node metastasis risk increases significantly when tumor diameter > 6 mm; the risk of lateral cervical lymph node metastasis also significantly increases in patients with central cervical lymph node metastasis.

Objective To verify the targeting regulatory relationship between microRNA -939 (miR -939) and CD2 -associated protein (CD2AP).Methods The online RegRNA software was used to predict the human CD2AP promoter for potential binding sites complementary to miR -939.HEK -293T cells were cotransfected with hu-man CD2AP promoter plasmid pGL3 -2K and microRNA negative control (miR -NC)or miR -939 mimics,and the relative luciferase activity(RLA)was detected at 24 h post -transfection.HEK -293T cells were transfected with miR -NC or miR -939 mimics for 48 h,and the CD2AP mRNA expression level was detected by adopting reverse tran-script and real -time fluorescence quantification -PCR,while the CD2AP protein expression level was detected by using Western blot.Results (1 )There were 2 miR -939 binding sites at CD2AP promoter region,located at -468 to -491 and -654 to -677 upstream of initiation codon ATG (marked as +1 )relatively.(2)At 30 nmol/L,50 nmol/L,the RLA in miR -NC group and miR -939 group were 6.81 ±0.88 vs 6.07 ±2.24,5.88 ±1 .44 vs 3.94 ± 0.79 relatively,and there were no significant differences between the 2 groups (t =3.04,2.06,all P >0.05),while the RLA between the 2 groups were 5.58 ±0.58 vs 3.29 ±0.64 at 1 00 nmol/L,and the difference was significant between the 2 groups(t =4.07,P <0.05).(3)At 30 nmol/L,50 nmol/L and 100 nmol/L,the relative CD2AP mRNA expression in miR -NC group and miR -939 group were 1 .00 ±0.01 vs 0.80 ±0.08,1 .00 ±0.00 vs 0.80 ±0.1 3 and 1 .00 ± 0.00 vs 0.72 ±0.07 relatively,while the CD2AP mRNA expression was decreased by 20% -30% at each concentration level,and there were significant differences between the 2 groups (t =4.44,2.93,6.84,all P <0.05).(4)At 50 nmol/L, the relative CD2AP protein expression in miR -NC group and miR -939 group were 0.48 ±0.09 vs 0.19 ±0.12,and the CD2AP protein expression was decreased,and the difference was significant (t =3.36,P <0.05).Conclusions CD2AP is the target gene of miR -939,and miR -939 can down -regulate the expression of CD2AP both in mRNA and protein levels by targeting its promoter region,which indicates that miR -939 may mediate the podocyte injury.

Objective To evaluate the role of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway in dexmedetomidine-induced reduction of renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats and the relationship with hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1α).Methods Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 10-12 weeks, weighing 220-260 g, were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=18 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (group S), group I/R, dexmedetomidine group (group Dex) ,and rapamicyn + dexmedetomidine group (group Rpm+Dex).Renal I/R was produced by occlusion of bilateral renal pedicles for 35 min follow by reperfusion in anesthetized rats in I/R, Dex and Rpm+Dex groups.Bilateral renal pedicles were only exposed, and then the abdominal cavity was closed in group S.Dexdetomidine 50 μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally at 30 min before I/R in group Dex.In group Rpm+Dex, rapamicyn 1.5 mg/kg and dexdetomidine 50 μg/kg were injected intraperitoneally, and renal I/R model was established 30 min later.Immediately after onset of reperfusion, and at 4 and 24 h of reperfusion (T1-3) , blood samples were collected from the caudal vein for measurement of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) concentrations.After blood sampling at T1-3, the rats were sacrificed, and the renal specimens were obtained for detection of HIF-1αt, erythropoietin (EPO) and mTOR expression by Western blot.Their kidneys were removed at T3, and cut into sections which were stained with haematoxylin and eosin and examined under microscope.Acute renal tubular necrosis was scored.The cell apoptosis in renal tissues was detected by TUNEL assay, and apoptosis index (AI) was calculated.Results Compared with group S,the concentrations of serum creatinine and BUN, expression of HIF-1α, EPO and mTOR at T2,3 , AI at T3 and acute renal tubular necrosis score were significantly increased in the other three groups (P＜ 0.05).Compared with group I/R, the concentrations of serum creatinine and BUN were significantly decreased, and the expression of HIF-1α, EPO and mTOR was up-regulated at T2,3 , and AI and acute renal tubular necrosis score were decreased in group Dex (P＜0.05) , and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group Rpm + Dex (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The mTOR signaling pathway is involved in dexmedetomidine-induced reduction of renal I/R injury, which may be related to dexmedetomidine-produced up-regulation of HIF-1α expression in renal tissues of rats.

Objective To study the mRNA expression levels and clinical significance of omsomucoid 1-like protein 3 (ORMDL3) gene in the peripheral blood of recurrent wheeze children under 3 years old.Methods Peripheral blood specimens of 25 recurrent wheeze children including 14 non-atopy patients (group A) and 11 atopy patients (group B) that were registered in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University,from Sep.2010 to Sep.2012 were enrolled based on the inclusion criteria and 24 non-allergic controls(the children with food allergy,drug allergy or ectema was excepted).The mRNA expression levels of ORMDL3 gene were detected by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and clinical features were analyzed.Results The expression levels of ORMDL3 were up-regulated in the peripheral blood specimens of group B compared with group A (t =14.12,P ＜ 0.01).Compared with peripheral blood specimens from normal subjects,mRNA expression of ORMDL3 were significantly increased in recurrent wheeze children(t =10.29,5.73,P ＜0.01).The incidence of wheeze groups exist gender differences,male ＞ female.Wheeze usually with a high incidence in winter and spring.Conclusions The increase of ORMDL3 gene expression levels were correlated with recurrent wheeze under 3 years old especially in atopy group and may be involved in the pathogenesis of recurrent wheeze.

Objective To observe the blood biochemical and histological changes before and after pancreas freezing, to provide evidence for cryosurgery for pancreatic cancer. Methods Fifteen healthy pigs were divided into deep frozen group (n = 5), shallow frozen group (n = 5), non-frozen group (n = 3) and normal group (n = 2). After anesthesia and Iaparotomy, a probe of the Argon-Helium Surgical System was inserted into the pancreas, 100% and 10% argon output power were used in deep and shallow frozen group, respectively;and the temperature were - 130 ～ - 140℃ and - 110 ～ - 120℃, respectively;which results in an ice-ball with 15 ～ 20 mm in diameter. Then helium gas was inputted to increase the temperature to 10 ～ 20℃ for three minutes;then the whole process was repeated. A probe was inserted into the pancreas in the non-frozen group only and only laparotomy was performed in non-grozen group normal group and normal group. Serum amylase, IL-6, CRP levels before and after the experiment was determined;the pigs were sacrificed at day 7 and the pancreas was harvested for light microscope and electron microscope examination. Results The frozen pancreatic tissue became pitchy necrosis zone, and it could be distinguished from non-frozen tissue;there were obvious tissue necrosis in the center and para-center of frozen area, and the ultra-structure were destroyed and disappeared, mitochondria degranulation and rough endoplasmic reticulum degrannlation were observed. Serum amylase was elevated in 13 (86.7%) pigs and most returned to normal at 6th day. Serum IL-6 was slightly elevated in 5 (33.3%) pigs. There was no significant difference among all the groups in term of serum CRP. All the pigs were alive until the time of sacrifice. Conclusions Cryosurgery has affirmative fatal ablative effects on pancreatic tissue, and it is safe with no serious complications.
