OBJECTIVE To know about the perception and current status of drug risk management among pharmacists in Chinese medical institutions, providing insights and recommendations for enhancing the drug risk management system in medical institutions. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted across 28 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions; stratified radom sampling was employed to study the population of medical workers and pharmaceutical professionals in medical institutions nationwide. The survey included information on the survey population, the current status of drug risk management implementation in medical institutions, the cognition, definition and process of drug risk management related concepts, and the content and mode of drug risk management work in medical institutions. Finally, suggestions were collected from various medical institutions on the system construction of drug risk management. Descriptive statistical analysis was adopted to summarize the obtained data. RESULTS A total of 446 questionnaires were collected in this survey, including 420 valid questionnaires and 26 invalid questionnaires. The questionnaire collection rate was 100%,and the effective rate was 94.17%. 51.19% of the respondents No.2020YFC2009001)。 based their understanding of drug risk management on Management Measures for Adverse Drug Reaction Reports and Monitoring, while 87.38% recognized the need for drug risk management throughout the drug use process. 63.33% of the participants stated that their medical institutions had dedicated positions related to drug risk management, with the highest proportion (72.17%) was in third-grade class A medical institutions. 66.43% reported implementing risk management across all drug use stages. Suggestions for the development of drug risk management systems in medical institutions by the research participants focused on enhancing guiding documents, clarifying concepts, establishing information-sharing mechanisms. CONCLUSIONS The overall awareness of drug risk management in China’s medical institutions is high, with practices in place across various stages in multiple forms. However, there remains a need to strengthen institutional documents, management regulations, system development, and information-sharing mechanisms to improve collaborative governance, improve drug management levels, and ensure patient safety.

The development of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) diagnosis and treatment has undergone multiple paradigms, evolving from sporadic experiential practices to systematic approaches in syndrome differentiation and treatment and further integration of disease and syndrome frameworks. TCM is a vital component of the medical system, valued alongside Western medicine. Treatment based on syndrome differentiation embodies both personalized treatment and holistic approaches; however, the inconsistency and lack of stability in syndrome differentiation limit clinical efficacy. The existing integration of diseases and syndromes primarily relies on patchwork and embedded systems, where the full advantages of synergy between Chinese and Western medicine are not fully realized. Recently, driven by the development of diagnosis and treatment concepts and advances in analytical technology, Western medicine has been rapidly transforming from a traditional biological model to a precision medicine model. TCM faces a similar need to progress beyond traditional syndrome differentiation and disease-syndrome integration toward a more precise diagnosis and treatment paradigm. Unlike the micro-level precision trend of Western medicine, precision diagnosis and treatment in TCM is primarily reflected in data-driven applications that incorporate information at various levels, including precise syndrome differentiation, medication, disease management, and efficacy evaluation. The current priority is to accelerate the development of TCM precision diagnosis and treatment technology platforms and advance discipline construction in this area.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with Ph-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-ALL) .Methods:Patients with Ph-ALL who underwent CAR-T therapy followed by allo-HSCT from March 2018 to August 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were included, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Of the 21 patients, 14 were male and 7 were female. The median age at the time of CAR-T therapy was 22 (6-50) years. Seven patients had ABL1-like rearrangements, and 14 had JAK-STAT rearrangements. Prior to CAR-T therapy, 12 patients experienced hematologic relapse; 7 were multiparameter flow cytometry minimal residual disease (MFC-MRD) -positive and 2 were MFC-MRD-negative. CAR-T cells were derived from patients’ autologous lymphocytes. Nine patients were treated with CD19 CAR-T cells, and 12 were treated with CD19/CD22 CAR-T cells. After assessment on day 28 after CAR-T therapy, 95.2% of the patients achieved complete remission, with an MRD-negative remission rate of 75%. Nineteen patients developed grade 0–2 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and 2 patients suffered grade 3 CRS, all cases of which resolved after treatment. All patients underwent allo-HSCT after CAR-T therapy. The median time from CAR-T therapy to allo-HSCT was 63 (38-114) days. Five patients experienced relapse after CAR-T therapy, including four with hematologic relapse and one with molecular relapse. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rates in the ABL1 and JAK-STAT groups were (83.3±15.2) % and (66.6±17.2) %, respectively ( P=0.68) . The 3-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were (50.0±20.4) % and (55.6±15.4) % in the ABL1 and JAK-STAT groups, respectively. There was no significant difference in 3-year OS or RFS between the two groups. Conclusions:CAR-T therapy followed by allo-HSCT leads to rapid remission in most patients with Ph-ALL and prolongs leukemia-free survival.

The experience of famous and veteran physicians in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a supplement to the cognition of industry groups and a high-quality learning resource. Digital inheritance of the experience of famous and veteran TCM physicians refers to the use of digital technology to record, organize, protect, spread, share and innovate the knowledge, skills and experiences of famous and veteran TCM physicians, which helps to overcome the inefficiency of traditional experience inheritance and realize the inheritance and development of TCM culture. Digital inheritance has certain advantages in accessibility, loss resistance, accuracy, innovation ability and effectiveness, which can assist the digital preservation, analysis and excavation of the experience of famous and veteran TCM physicians, and is an important supplement to the traditional way of learning from teachers. Digital inheritance is usually divided into the following steps: building a database of TCM knowledge, building a database of experienced medical records of famous and veteran TCM physicians, discovering laws by data mining, and assisting clinical decision-making with machine learning. The digital inheritance of famous and veteran TCM physicians is not only the use of experience information, but also the process of innovation and productization based on experience, which may become a new service model of TCM diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVE To establish a method for concentration determination of caffeine and its three metabolites, theophylline, paraxanthine and theobromine in urine, and apply it in clinical practice. METHODS Using caffeine-13C3-d3 as internal standard (IS), and the urine samples were protein precipitated with acetonitrile; HPLC-MS/MS method was adopted to determine the concentrations of caffeine and its three metabolites. The determination was performed on Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH HILIC column with mobile phase consisting of 60 mmol/L ammonium acetate (A)-acetonitrile (B) (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 38 ℃ , and the sample size was 2 μL. The electrospray ionization detection was operated in a positive mode by multiple reaction monitoring. The detection ions for quantitative analysis were m/z 195.1→110.0 for caffeine, m/z 181.1→124.0 for theophylline, m/z 181.1→124.0 for paraxanthine, m/z 181.1→138.0 for theobromine, and m/z 198.1→ 140.1 for IS. The above method was used to determine the concentrations of caffeine and its three metabolites in the urine of 19 infants with apnea of prematurity (AOP). RESULTS The linear ranges of mass concentration of caffeine, theophylline, paraxanthin and theobromine were 0.200-200, 0.050-50.0,0.050 0-50.0, and 0.100-100 μg/mL, respectively. The lower limits of quantification were 0.200, 0.050, 0.050 and 0.100 μg/mL (r>0.990), respectively. RSDs of intra-day and intra- day precision were not above 10.37%, and matrix factors were 85.68%-109.90%; extraction recoveries were 93.53%-109.40% (RSD≤15%), and RSDs of stability tests were all lower than 15%. The concentrations of caffeine and its three metabolites in the urine of 19 cases were (27.346±7.951), (0.351±0.223), (0.428±0.395) and (0.472±0.374) μg/mL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The established HPLC-MS/MS method is simple, sensitive and can be used for the determination of caffeine and its three metabolites in urine samples of AOP.

ObjectiveTo explain the scientific connotation of Morindae Officinalis Radix (MOR) processed by Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (Gly) by comparing the effect of raw products of MOR and processed products of MOR with different proportions of Gly (GMOs) on the improvement of renal function and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, the protein expression of Wnt/β-catenin and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smad signal pathways in kidney Yang deficiency model rats induced by adenine. MethodGMOs were prepared according to method under MOR in 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Rat model of kidney Yang deficiency was established by intragastrical administration of adenine, levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2) and testosterone (T) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Levels of urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) were measured by spectrophotometry, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to evaluate the pathological changes of kidney, testis and epididymis. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to analyze the protein expression of E-cadherin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), Wnt2b, β-catenin, Smad1 and Smad4. ResultMOR processed with 100∶6 and 100∶12 proportions of Gly (short for GMO/100∶6 and GMO/100∶12) had the most obvious improvement on the body posture of kidney Yang deficiency model rats. GMO/100∶12 had the best effect on reducing the levels of BUN, SCr, FSH, LH and the ratio of E2/T. GMO/100∶6 and GMO/100∶12 had the best effect on regulating the protein expression of E-cadherin, α-SMA, Wnt2b, β-catenin, Smad1 and Smad4. ConclusionGMO/100∶6 and GMO/100∶12 have the a good effect on the improvement of renal function and HPG axis in kidney Yang deficiency model rats induced by adenine, which is related with the fact that they can regulate Wnt/β-catenin pathway in renal and testicular tissue and TGF-β1/Smads pathway in testicular tissue.

Objective:To explore the effects of BCR-ABL downstream pathway inhibitors, such as RAF inhibitor SB590885, JAK inhibitor AZD1480, PI3K-mTOR double target inhibitor BEZ235 on chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells, and the effect of BEZ235 on the proliferation, apoptosis of CML cells and the sensitivity of imatinib in vitro.Methods:K562 cells were treated with different concentrations of the drugs. MTS method was applied to detect the proliferation inhibition rate of K562 cells, and 50% inhibitory concentration (IC 50) of all drugs for 48 h was calculated. The cell apoptosis rate was tested by using flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. The cell cycle was tested by using flow cytometry with PI staining. K562 cells, imatinib-resistant and T315I-mutant human CML KBM7R cells and imatinib-resistant CML primary cells of patients were treated with different concentrations of the drugs. MTS method was used to test the proliferation inhibition of cells, and IC 50 of all drugs for 48 h was evaluated. KBM7R cells or primary cells of CML patients were treated with 1.0 μmol/L BEZ235, 1.0 μmol/L imatinib or the combination of both, respectively. Flow cytometry with PI staining was used to detect the cell cycle of KBM7R cells. Flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining was used to detect the cell apoptosis rate in CML primary cells. The expressions of p-AKT, cleaved Caspase-3 and Cyclin D1 proteins were detected by using Western blot. Results:SB590885, AZD1480 and BEZ235 could inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells, and the IC 50 after the treatment of K562 cells for 48 h was (11.49±3.14), (4.83±1.26) and (0.37±0.21) μmol/L, respectively. SB590885, AZD1480 and BEZ235 could promote the apoptosis of K562 cells. The cell apoptosis rates were increased compared with the control group without drug treatment (all P < 0.01). SB590885 and BEZ235 induced G 0/G 1 block (both P < 0.05). AZD1480 induced G 2/M block ( P < 0.05). BEZ235 could inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells, KBM7R cells and CML primary cells, and their IC 50 for 48 h was (0.37±0.21), (0.43±0.27) and (0.49±0.24) μmol/L, respectively. Compared with imatinib alone, the different concentrations of imatinib combined with 0.2 μmol/L BEZ235 could increase the proliferation inhibition of K562 cells, KBM7R cells and CML primary cells, and could reduce the IC 50 of imatinib. After the treatment of imatinib alone and combination with BEZ235 for 48 h, the imatinib IC 50 of K562 cells was (0.14±0.05) and (0.09± 0.04) μmol/L ( t = 1.531, P = 0.249), the imatinib IC 50 of KBM7R cells was (3.93±2.29) and (0.44±0.22) μmol/L ( t = 2.837, P = 0.047), the imatinib IC 50 of the primary cells was (3.12±1.53) and (0.39±0.23) μmol/L ( t = 3.925, P = 0.042). The cell apoptotic rate of the primary cells was (4.9±1.4)%, (13.1±3.2)%, (8.8±2.0)% and (40.6±6.0)%, respectively in the control group without drug treatment, 1.0 μmol/L BEZ235, 1.0 μmol/L imatinib and the combination of 1.0 μmol/L BEZ235 and 1.0 μmol/L imatinib after the treatment of 24 h ( F = 71.031, P < 0.01). Compared with imatinib alone, the expressions of p-AKT and Cyclin D1 proteins were decreased, and the expression of cleaved Caspase-3 protein was increased after the treatment of KBM7R cells for 12 h in the combination group of both BEZ235 and imatinib. Conclusions:BCR-ABL downstream pathway inhibitors can effectively inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of K562 cells. BEZ235 can inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of K562 cells, imatinib-resistant and T315I-mutant human KBM7R cells and imatinib-resistant CML primary cells of patients, which has a synergistic effect to imatinib.

Objective:
Early T-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ETP-ALL) is a recently recognized high-risk T lymphoblastic leukemia subgroup. The optimal therapeutic approaches to adult patients with ETP-ALL are poorly characterized. In this study, we explore the efficacy and outcome of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for ETP-ALL.
Methods:
The clinical data of 23 patients with ETP-ALL receiving allo-HSCT from 2010 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with ETP-ALL were diagnosed based on the characteristic immunophenotypes. Second-generation sequencing was done in all patients. As to the donors, 12 patients had haploidentical donors (Haplo-HSCT) , 7 HLA-matched sibling donors (Sib-HSCT) and 4 HLA-matched unrelated donors (URD-HSCT) . Before transplantation, 19 patients achieved complete remission (CR) and 4 patients without.
Results:
The main clinical features of ETP-ALL included high white blood cell counts in 5 patients, splenomegaly in 14, lymphadenopathy in 19, and thymus masses in 5. According to cytogenetic and molecular characteristics, 11 patients had gene mutations related to myeloid tumors, and 7 with high risk Karyotype. After first induction regimen, 14/23 patients achieved CR. 5 patients reached CR after more than 2 cycles of chemotherapy, while another 4 patients did not reach CR. After allo-HSCT, 22 patients were successfully implanted. The median time of granulocyte and platelet reconstitution was +12 and +19 days. One patient died of transplant-related infection at +14 days. The estimated 18-month overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were (55.0±14.4) % and (48.1±14.7) % respectively. Transplant-related mortality was 4.3%. The median OS in patients achieving CR before transplantation was 20 months, however, that in patients without CR was only 13 months. OS and RFS between haplo-HSCT and sib-HSCT were comparable (
