OBJECTIVE To provide empirical basis for promoting the dynamic adjustment of the pharmaceutical care catalogue and the formulation of policies such as hierarchical payment of medical insurance. METHODS A multicenter cross- sectional survey method was adopted to conduct a questionnaire survey among 424 inpatients in 22 tertiary medical institutions in 12 prefecture-level cities of Hubei Province to evaluate their demand for pharmaceutical care, willingness to pay and preference for service forms. Combined with univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis, the influencing factors and key factors that affect patients’ willingness to pay for pharmaceutical care were identified. RESULTS Only 39.86% of the patients were aware of pharmaceutical care or pharmacists, and 89.62% of the patients hope to receive pharmaceutical care. Among the 16 types of pharmaceutical care, the patients surveyed had a relatively high recognition rate for guidance on drug usage and dosage, notification of medication precautions, and the identification, prevention and handling of adverse drug reactions. 96.70%, 95.30%, and 94.12% respectively expressed strong approval and approval. The demand for services such as insurance-related policy consultation, popular science on the mechanism of drug action, and assessment of the combined use of traditional Chinese and Western medicines was relatively low, with 61.65%, 68.47%, and 68.47% expressing strong approval and approval respectively. The positive influencing factors of willingness to pay were household monthly income > 5 000 yuan (OR=1.742), awareness of pharmaceutical care or pharmacists (OR=3.620), and the desire to receive pharmaceutical care (OR=4.686) (P<0.05), while self-rating health as “good” (OR=0.390) was a negative influencing factor (P<0.05). Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (54.48%) and antihypertensive drugs (45.05%) were the service scenarios that the surveyed patients most hope to be covered. 85.14% of the patients preferred “service when xiaochnye@126.com needed”, with a single service duration of less than 10 minutes being appropriate (84.43%), and the willingness to pay within 20 yuan being the main type (85.38%). CONCLUSIONS Based on the characteristics of patients’ needs and payment behaviors, it is suggested that our country could consider establishing a hierarchical payment mechanism for pharmaceutical care, and focus on differentiated design in combination with diseases and medication situations. At the same time, the rights, responsibilities and service standards of resident pharmacists in the links such as medication reorganization and medical order review should be further clarified to comprehensively enhance the clinical value and policy operability of pharmaceutical care.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current allocation status of automated equipment in pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS) of medical institutions in China, and to provide reference for understanding the current status and future direction of PIVAS automation construction. METHODS In the form of a questionnaire survey, a questionnaire was distributed to medical institutions in 30 provinces across the country through the “Wenjuanxing” platform to investigate the four aspects of PIVAS, such as the allocation of automated equipment, intelligent intravenous medication dispensing robots, design and development of workflow software and information integration methods for automated equipment, and conduct statistical analysis. RESULTS A total of 761 PIVAS participated in the survey, 373 PIVAS were equipped with automated equipment. Among 373 PIVAS with automated equipment, automatic finished infusion sorting machines and automatic labeling machines were the main equipment, and 93.56% of PIVAS were not equipped with intelligent intravenous medication dispensing robots; 511 PIVAS used workflow software designed and developed by third-party software companies. In the project of information integration for automated equipment, there was not much difference in the proportion of cases where there was no automated equipment, automated equipment directly interfaced with hospital information systems, and automated equipment interfaced with PIVAS software platform. CONCLUSIONS The automated equipment allocation rate of PIVAS in China is relatively low, and there is still a lot of room for development. We should improve the relevant guidelines for automated equipment as soon as possible, promote standardized and reasonable equipment research and development, and enable PIVAS to more efficiently complete intravenous drug dispensing, in order to provide more dengrm3@mail.sysu.edu.cn comprehensive pharmaceutical services.

Background/Aims:
Low educational attainment is a well-established risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in developed areas. However, the association between educational attainment and the risk of NAFLD is less clear in China.
Methods:
A cross-sectional study including over 200,000 Chinese adults across mainland China was conducted. Information on education level and lifestyle factors were obtained through standard questionnaires, while NAFLD and advanced fibrosis were diagnosed using validated formulas. Outcomes included the risk of NAFLD in the general population and high probability of fibrosis among patients with NAFLD. Logistic regression analysis was employed to estimate the risk of NAFLD and fibrosis across education levels. A causal mediation model was used to explore the potential mediators.
Results:
Comparing with those receiving primary school education, the multi-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for NAFLD were 1.28 (1.16 to 1.41) for men and 0.94 (0.89 to 0.99) for women with college education after accounting for body mass index. When considering waist circumference, the odds ratios (95% CIs) were 0.94 (0.86 to 1.04) for men and 0.88 (0.80 to 0.97) for women, respectively. The proportions mediated by general and central obesity were 51.00% and 68.04% for men, while for women the proportions were 48.58% and 32.58%, respectively. Furthermore, NAFLD patients with lower educational attainment showed an incremental increased risk of advanced fibrosis in both genders.
Conclusions
In China, a low education level was associated with a higher risk of prevalent NAFLD in women, as well as high probability of fibrosis in both genders.

OBJECTIVE To explore the construction of mind map by clinical pharmacists for the consultation of pulmonary nocardiosis and its application in clinical practice, and to provide reference for promoting the correct selection of nocardiosis treatment drugs in clinical practice and ensuring drug safety and efficacy. METHODS A total of 7 patients with Nocardia pulmonary infection from January 2017 to April 2022 in our hospital were collected. Based on evidence-based medicine, a consultation mind map (mainly including understanding the medical history, identifying infectious bacteria, identifying risk factors, developing treatment plans, and conducting evaluations) was constructed to address the difficulties of large differences in drug sensitivity among different strains of Nocardia and numerous adverse reactions of Compound sulfamethoxazole as a first-line drug. The treatment plan was developed for 7 patients with pulmonary nocardiosis, and whole-process pharmaceutical care was provided. RESULTS Combined with the mind map, different antibiotic combination regimens were given according to the drug sensitivity results of Nocardia, the different species of Nocardia, and the patient’s allergy history. Among them, 4 cases were treated with imipenem cilastatin, the patients receiving Compound sulfamethoxazole and linezolid for a long time were given full pharmaceutical care, and the adverse drug reactions were timely treated.CONCLUSIONS Clinical pharmacists apply the consultation mind map of pulmonary nocardiosis to the treatment of inpatients, take advantage of pharmacy, participate in clinical drug therapy, and really play a role in the clinical treatment team so as to promote rational drug use.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the component characteristics and anti-infla mmatory activities of the low polarity parts from Sabia campanulata ,S. discolor and S. parviflora . METHODS Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to analyze the components of low polarity parts eluted by petroleum ether from petroleum ether extract of dried stems and leaves of S. campanulata,S. discolor and S. parviflora . The chromatographic peaks were retrieved by both NIST 17 and Wiley 275 database, and their structures of each compound were compared and identified manually. The relative percentage content of each component was calculated by peak area normalization method. With indomethacin as positive control and the inhibition rate of nitric oxide (NO)production as the index ,the effects of the low polarity parts of the above three species of Sabia genus on the production of NO in lipopolysaccharide-induced human rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLS) and mouse mononuclear macrophage RAW 264.7 were compared ;the half inhibitory concentration (IC50)was calculated. RESULTS Totally 70,40 and 33 chemical components were identified respectively from the low polarity parts of S. campanulata ,S. discolor and S. parviflora , including long-chain fatty hydrocarbons ,long-chain alcohol/aldehyde/ester ,monoterpenes;but there were only 5 common components in the three species ,such as dodecane and docosane,etc. S. campanulata contained abundant terpenoids (40.89%); the relative percentage content of triterpenoids was high in S. discolor (30.29%);the relative percentage content of long-chain fatty hydrocarbons was high in S. parviflora (87.70%). The values of IC 50 of the low polarity parts of the above three species of Sabia genus to the production of NO in RA-FLS cells were 2.22,1.69 and 4.15 μg/mL,respectively. The values of IC 50 of them to the production of NO in RAW 264.7 cells were 1.23,4.02 and 3.05 μg/mL respectively,and all of them were lower than indomethacin (12.97,10.66 μg/mL). CONCLUSIONS The components of the low polarity parts fr om the above three species of Sabia genus are mainly long-chain fatty hydrocarbons , monoterpenes and long-chain alcohol/aldehyde/ester , and all of them have certain anti-inflammatory activities.
