OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical efficacy of integrating pharmacists into family health teams （FHTs） for long-term medication therapeutical management （MTM） in stroke patients， and empirically evaluate the service model. METHODS A pharmacist team， jointly established by clinical and community pharmacists from the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University （hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”）， developed a pharmacist-supported MTM model integrated into FHTs. Using a prospective randomized controlled design， 170 stroke patients discharged from our hospital （July 2022-December 2023） and enrolled in FHTs at Suzhou Runda Community Hospital were randomly divided into trial group （88 cases） and control group （82 cases） according to random number table. The control group received routine FHTs care （without pharmacist involvement in the team collaboration）， while the trial group xhz8405@126.com received 12-month MTM services supported by pharmacists via an information platform. These services specifically included innovative interventions such as personalized medication regimen optimization based on the MTM framework， dynamic medication adherence management， medication safety monitoring， a home medication assessment system， and distinctive service offerings. Outcomes of the 2 grousp were compared before and after intervention， involving medication adherence （adherence rate， adherence score）， compliance rates for stroke recurrence risk factors [blood pressure， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）]， and incidence of adverse drug reactions （ADR）. RESULTS After 12 months， the trial group exhibited significantly higher medication adherence rates， improved adherence scores， higher compliance rates for blood pressure and LDL-C targets compared to the control group （P＜0.05）. The incidence of ADR in the trial group （4.55%） was significantly lower than that in the control group （8.11%）， though the difference was not statistically significant （P＞ 0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacist involvement in FHTs to deliver MTM services significantly enhances medication adherence and optimizes risk factor for stroke recurrence， offering practical evidence for advancing pharmaceutical care in chronic disease management under the family doctor system.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of leaflet augmentation technique to repair the recurrent mitral valve (MV) regurgitation after mitral repair in children. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children who underwent redo MV repair for recurrent regurgitation after initial MV repair, using a leaflet augmentation technique combined with a standardized repair strategy at Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, from 2018 to 2022. The pathological features of the MV, key intraoperative procedures, and short- to mid-term follow-up outcomes were analyzed. Results A total of 24 patients (12 male, 12 female) were included, with a median age of 37.6 (range, 16.5–120.0) months. The mean interval from the initial surgery was (24.9±17.0) months. All children had severe mitral regurgitation preoperatively. The cardiopulmonary bypass time was (150.1±49.5) min, and the aortic cross-clamp time was (94.0±24.2) min. There were no early postoperative deaths. During a mean follow-up of (20.3±9.1) months, 3 (12.5%) patients developed moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (2 severe, 1 moderate). One (4.2%) patient died during follow-up, and one (4.2%) patient underwent a second MV reoperation. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was significantly reduced postoperatively compared to preoperatively [ (43.5±8.6) mm vs. (35.8±7.8)mm, P<0.001]. Conclusion The leaflet augmentation technique combined with a standardized repair strategy can achieve satisfactory short- to mid-term outcomes for the redo mitral repair after previous MV repair. It can be considered a safe and feasible technical option for cases with complex valvular lesions and severe pathological changes.

Objective To analyze and compare the disease burden, trends, and influencing factors of lung cancer in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) in China and globally from 1990 to 2021, providing a reference for the prevention and treatment of lung cancer in China. Methods Indicators of lung cancer disease burden in different genders and age groups in 204 countries or regions from 1990 to 2021 were retrieved and standardized from GBD 2021 database. The Joinpoint regression model was used to calculate the average annual percentage change (AAPC) of the standardized rates of lung cancer in AYAs in China and globally from 1990 to 2021; changes in incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rates due to population growth, aging, and epidemiological changes were analyzed; differences in lung cancer disease burden in AYAs in different socio-demographic index (SDI) regions were analyzed; and the influencing factors of lung cancer in AYAs in China and globally were explored. Results From 1990 to 2021, the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) (AAPC=−0.18%, P<0.001), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) (AAPC=−0.62%, P<0.001), and age-standardized DALYs rate (AAPC=−0.62%, P<0.001) of lung cancer in AYAs in China showed a downward trend, consistent with the global trend, but the decline in China was relatively small. During this period, the age-standardized rates of various indicators of lung cancer in males in China and globally were higher than those in females, and the burden of lung cancer in Chinese males was heavier. However, due to the significant downward trend in males, the gap in lung cancer burden between males and females was narrowing. At the same time, from 2013 to 2021, the ASIR [annual percent change (APC)=2.01%, P<0.001], ASMR (APC=1.46%, P<0.001), and standardized DALYs rate (APC=1.46%, P<0.001) in China showed an upward trend. From 1990 to 2021, among the main influencing factors for the incidence, mortality, and DALYs rates of lung cancer in Chinese AYAs, the contribution of aging was upward-pushing, while the increase in global indicators was mainly attributed to population growth. The global burden of lung cancer in AYAs was overly concentrated in high SDI regions. Although the gap in lung cancer burden between high SDI and low SDI regions was narrowing, it remained widespread. Globally, smoking, environmental PM2.5, insufficient fruit intake, second-hand smoke, and indoor air pollution were prominent risk factors. Conclusion From 1990 to 2021, the global and Chinese AYAs lung cancer incidence and mortality rates generally show a downward trend, but the female lung cancer burden relatively increases, especially in young women without a history of smoking. Continued efforts are needed to reduce the burden of lung cancer in AYAs, especially the specific risk for young women.

Objective To analyze and clarify the concept of intrinsic capacity of the elderly.Methods We searched studies on intrinsic capacity of the elderly from websites and databases,including PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase,CINAHL,China Biomedical Literature Service System databases,CNKI,WanFang databases and VIP.We selected relevant papers from the inception of databases to July 2023 according to inclusion criteria.Rodgers evolutionary method of concept analysis was used.Results A total of 30 articles were retrieved.4 attributes were identified on intrinsic capacity,including:guided by the goal of achieving healthy aging,inherent physiological reserve capacity of individuals,rich and interactive dimensions,and a dynamic and reversible development trajectory.Its prerequisites include demographic factors,socio-economic factors,health-related charac-teristics,external environment,and other factors;post effects include early identification of declining intrinsic abilities in the elderly and timely adoption of targeted intervention measures,which are of great significance for improving the quality of life of the elderly and promoting healthy aging.The decline in intrinsic capabilities is closely related to various adverse health outcomes,posing a serious threat to the health status of the elderly.Conclusion The concept attributes of intrinsic capacity were identified by concept analysis method.In the future,research and clinical practice should be carried out based on the concept of intrinsic capacity.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with diabetes.Methods:A total of eight databases, namely PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and VIP Database, were systematically searched for cross-sectional studies on malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients published from the inception of the databases to September 13, 2023. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment. Data analysis was performed using Stata 16.0 software.Results:A total of 22 studies were included, involving 6 349 elderly diabetic patients. Results of the meta-analysis showed that the overall prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with diabetes was 32.3% (95% CI: 0.21 to 0.43), and the prevalence of at-risk of malnutrition was 49.0% (95% CI: 0.31 to 0.67). Subgroup analysis showed that the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients with chronic complications (56.8%) was significantly higher than those without chronic complications (21.9%). Inpatients also showed a higher prevalence compared with outpatients and community (44.4%, 29.0%, and 18.5%, respectively). The prevalence of malnutrition as per mini-nutritional assessment scale was higher than that as per mini-nutritional assessment short-form scale (35.8% vs. 23.3%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the prevalence of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients of different genders ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of malnutrition and at-risk of malnutrition in elderly diabetic patients is high. In clinical practice, we should not only strengthen the early diagnosis of malnutrition in patients, but also emphasize the screening of malnutrition risk, implement timely corresponding interventions, and promote patient education on nutrition and health, to improve the prognosis and quality of life in elderly diabetes patients.

Two pediatric heart failure patients were treated with pulmonary artery banding(PAB)at Fuwai Hospital,from December 2021 to January 2022.In the first case,an 8-month-old patient presented with left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy(LVNC),left ventricular systolic dysfunction,ventricular septal defect,and atrial septal defect.The second case was a 4-month-old patient with LVNC,left ventricular systolic dysfunction,and coarctation of the aorta.After PAB,the left ventricular function and shape of both patients were significantly improved,without serious surgery-related complications.In these individual cases of pediatric heart failure,pulmonary artery banding exhibited a more satisfactory efficacy and safety compared to pharmacological treatment,especially for those with unsatisfactory medication results.Future clinical data are needed to promote the rational and broader application of this therapeutic option for indicated patients.

Objective:To analyze the lipid levels, adverse perinatal outcome and their correlation in Tibetan pregnant women in high altitudes in late pregnancy.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on clinical and laboratory data of 523 Tibetan singleton pregnant women who delivered after 28 weeks at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chaya People's Hospital, Changdu City. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the altitude of their long-term residence, including altitude<3 500 m (Group A, n=161), altitude ≥3 500 m and <4 000 m (Group B, n=203) and altitude≥4 000 m (Group C, n=159). In addition, the subjects were also grouped into high TG group (TG≥3.23 mmol/L, n=80) and control group (TG<3.23 mmol/L, n=443). The baseline information, levels of lipid and perinatal outcome were compared among Group A,B and C, and also between the high TG and control group, respectively, using Mann-whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, LSD- t, Chi-square test, or Fisher exact test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was also applied to analyze the correlation between hypertriglyceridemia and adverse perinatal outcome. Results:The maternal age, gravidity and parity, body mess index, blood pressure on admission and total cholesterol (TC), TG, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), TG/HDL-C ratio and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio in late pregnancy and the occurrence of adverse perinatal outcome did not show any significant differences among Group A, B and C (all P>0.05). However, the hemoglobin (Hb) level increased with the elevation of altitude as expected, and that in Group C was higher than that in Group A and B [121.0 g/L (108.0-132.0 g/L) vs 115.0 g/L (103.5-128.0 g/L) and 117.0 g/L (101.0-127.0 g/L), H=2.37 and 1.97, both P<0.05]. The proportion of women with hypertriglyceridemia, the high TG group, in late pregnancy was 15.3% (80/523), and no significant difference was found in HDL-C or Hb levels between the high TG and control group [1.7 mmol/L (1.5-2.0 mmol/L) vs 1.8 mmol/L (1.5-2.1 mmol/L), Z=－1.51;123.5 g/L (110.0-131.8 g/L) vs 117.0 g/L (104.0-128.0 g/L), Z=1.69; both P>0.05]. Higher rates of cesarean section [13.8% (11/80) vs 6.6% (29/443), χ2＝4.98], hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) [16.3% (13/80) vs 7.5% (33/443), χ2＝6.54], preeclampsia (PE) [8.8% (7/80) vs 1.6% (7/443), χ2＝13.37], hyperglycemia during pregnancy [11.3%( 9/80) vs 3.6% (16/443), χ2＝8.69], preterm birth (PB) [7.5% (6/80) vs 2.0% (9/443), χ2＝7.27], microsomia [5.0% (4/80) vs 0.9% (4/443), Fisher exact test] and neonatal asphyxia [8.8%(7/80) vs 2.5% (11/443), χ2＝8.01] were observed in the high TG group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Regarding the pregnant women at different altitude, TG was negatively correlated with Hb ( r=－0.17, P=0.037) only in Group C .Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed higher risk of HDP ( OR=2.42,95% CI:1.17-5.00), PE ( OR=5.25, 95% CI:1.73-16.00), hyperglycemia during pregnancy ( OR=3.77, 95% CI:1.56-9.09), PB ( OR=4.33, 95% CI:1.42-13.22), microsomia ( OR=4.33, 95% CI:1.42-13.22), neonatal asphyxia ( OR=3.45, 95% CI:1.27-9.35) and fetal demise ( OR=4.94, 95% CI:1.01-24.21) in women with high TG level in late pregnancy (all P<0.05). Conclusions:There were no differences in adverse perinatal outcomes or serum lipid levels in late pregnancy among women living at different high altitudes. However, hypertriglyceridemia at the third trimester is closely associated with the incidence of HDP, PE, hyperglycemia during pregnancy, PB, microsomia, neonatal asphyxia and fetal demise in this group of women.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) after kidney transplantation.Methods:From January 2020 to January 2022, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 13 renal transplant recipients with pneumocystis pneumonia diagnosed by metagenomics next generation sequencing (mNGS). There were 3 females and 10 males with an age range of (46±10) years.The median time of postoperative onset was 10(2-21) months; The major clinical manifestations included fever ( n=11), cough ( n=7), expectoration ( n=6) and dyspnea ( n=11). Paired t-test was employed for analyzing the laboratory results at admission and discharge. Results:The diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of NGS in alveolar lavage fluid or venous blood.The levels of G test, LDH test, total T lymphocyte absolute count (CD3+ Abs), inhibitory/cytotoxic T lymphocyte count (CD3+ CD8+ Abs) and auxiliary/induced T lymphocyte absolute count (CD3+ CD4+ Abs) were (543.27±440.49) pg/ml, (529.98±222.43)U/L and (191.92±119.42)/μl, (87.33±50.59)/μl and (106.92±87.42)/μl at admission and (69.58±50.21) pg/ml, (285.38±46.62 U/L), (888.58±672.99)/μl, (336.83±305.21)/μl and (520.08±388.76)/μl at discharge.The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001, P=0.002, 0.006, 0.017, 0.005). All of them received compound sulfamethoxazole and caspofungin.Except for one death due to septic shock after 21-day treatment, 12 cases were cured. Conclusions:mNGS test is one of the important tool for an early diagnosis of PCP.Combined use of compound sulfamethoxazole and caspofungin is an effective anti-infective regimen.And immune function monitoring is vital for adjusting antibiotic and immunosuppressive regimens.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine used for drug-induced sleep endoscopy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. METHODS Totally 60 patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were randomly divided into control group and observation group ，with 30 cases in each group. Anesthesia induction scheme of control group included loading dose of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg，pumped for 10 min，maintained at 1 μg（/ kg·h），and intravenous administration of propofol at a constant rate of 3 mg（/ kg·h）until the patient snored. That of observation group included same administration route and dose of dexmedetomidine as control group ，intravenous administration of esketamine 1 mg/kg at a constant rate of 0.5 mg/（kg·h）until the patient snored. Sleep endoscopy was performed when the bispectral index （BIS）was lower than 75 and the alert /sedation（OAA/S）score was higher than 1. The vital signs ，BIS and OAA/S scores of patients in awake state （T0），10 min load dose of dexmedetomidine infusion （T1），at the time of examination （T2）and at the end of examination （T3） were recorded ，as well as the patient ’s medication （including the one-time success rate of examination ，the number of additional drugs due to physical movement during examination ），and the occurrence of adverse events after medication. RESULTS In the comparison between groups ，the pulse oxygen saturation （SpO2）and BIS of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at T1，T2 and T3；the heart rates and mean arterial pressures （MAP）at T2 and T3 were significantly lower than those in the control group ；and the OAA/S score at T1 and T2 were significantly higher than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. Comparison within the group ，the heart rates at T1，T2 and T3 in the observation group were significantly lower than those at T0，and the MAP at T2 and T3 were significantly lower than that at T1（P＜0.05）；in control group ，compared with T0，SpO2 decreased significantly at T1，T2 and T3，heart rate decreased significantly at T1，and MAP increased significantly at T2（P＜0.05）. Sixty patients successfully completed drug-induced sleep endoscopy after medication. The one-time success rate of examination in the observation group was significantly higher （No.191460443） than control group （P＜0.05），and the number of additional drugs due to physical movement during examination was significantly less than control group （P＜0.05）. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between 2 groups（P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Esketamine combined with dexmedetomidine has less respiratory inhibition and less effect on hypoxia hemodynamics in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. It has less intervention times in the process of sleep endoscopy ，and has more advantages than propofol.

Objective:To investigate the long-term survival and safety in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who experienced a noninvasive down-staging (≤pT 1)after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) plus systemic chemotherapy and received bladder-sparing treatment. Methods:The records of patients with MIBC who underwent maximal TURBT plus systemic chemotherapy-guided bladder-sparing treatment were reviewed retrospectively from Dec 2013 to Dec 2020. Eventually, 22 patients who achieved noninvasive down-staging underwent conservative management. The total patient cohort contained 10 males and 12 females. A majority of patients had single lesion and stage T2 disease. The median age of the patients was 66 years and the median tumor size was 3.0 cm. All patients underwent maximal TURBT to resect all visible diseases and followed by 3-4 cycles platinum-based systemic chemotherapy. After achieving noninvasive down-staging, 14 patients received concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and the other 8 patients underwent surveillance. Overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) was used to assess the bladder function after treatment.Results:Twelve patients achieved pT 0 and 10 patients were down-staged to cT a-T 1. At a median follow-up of 36.7 months, 90.9%(20/22) patients retained their bladder function successfully. Among the 14 patients who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy, 4 had grade 3 or 4 adverse events. Among the 8 patients who underwent surveillance, 3 had grade 3 or 4 adverse events after systemic chemotherapy.Nine patients experienced tumor recurrence in the bladder, and 2 patients died of bladder cancer. Seven (31.8%) patients experienced Ⅲ/Ⅳ grade complications. The 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients achieved pT0 were 66.7% and 100.0%, respectively. The 5-year RFS and OS in patients achieved cTa-T1 were 40% and 72%, respectively. The OABSS score of 20 patients who retained their bladder successfully was (1.00±1.03). Conclusions:MIBC patients who achieved noninvasive down-staging might be candidates for the bladder-sparing treatment with maximum TURBT followed by systemic chemotherapy.The patients who achieved pT 0 might have better prognosis with functional bladder.
