OBJECTIVE To systematically investigate the current status and effectiveness of the standardized on-the-job training program for community clinical pharmacists in Shanghai， and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing the training scheme. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the data from trainees and mentor pharmacists who participated in the program between 2016 and 2024. The survey examined their basic information， evaluations of the training scheme， satisfaction with training outcomes， and suggestions for improvement. Statistical analyses were also conducted. RESULTS A total of 420 valid responses were collected， including 340 from trainees and 80 from mentor pharmacists. Before training， only 30.29% of trainees were engaged in clinical pharmacy-related work， whereas this proportion increased to 73.24% after training. Most mentor pharmacists had extensive experience in clinical pharmacy （76.25% with ≥5 years of experience） and mentoring （78.75% with ≥3 teaching sessions）. Totally 65.59% of trainees and 55.00% of mentor pharmacists believed that blended training yielded the best learning outcomes. Over 80.00% of both trainees and mentor pharmacists considered the overall training duration， theoretical study time， and practical training time to be reasonable. More than 95.00% of trainees and mentor pharmacists agreed that the homework and assessment schemes were appropriate. Trainees rated the relevance of training content to their actual work highly （with an average relevance score ＞4.5）， though they perceived the chronic disease medication therapy management module as significantly more challenging than the prescription review and evaluation module and the home-based pharmaceutical care module. The average satisfaction score of trainees and mentor pharmacists with the training effectiveness of each project was above 4 points， indicating a high overall satisfaction. Inadequate provision of teaching resources was unanimously recognized by trainees and mentor pharmacists as the key area requiring improvement. CONCLUSIONS The standardized on-the-job training program for community clinical pharmacists in Shanghai has contributed to improving pharmaceutical services in community healthcare settings. However， ongoing improvements must concentrate on content design， resource development， and faculty cultivation.

OBJECTIVE To observe the efficacy and safety of hydromorphone in patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)after uvulopalatopharyngoplasty.METHODS A total of 90 patients who received uvulopalatopharyngoplasty in Central Theater General Hospital from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected and divided into three groups(n=30 in each group)by using random number table method.Control group was given sufentanil 2.0 μg/kg,group A was given hydromorphone 0.20 mg/kg and group B was given hydromorphone 0.30 mg/kg.The analgesic parameters of three groups were background infusion rate of 1.2 ml/h,PCA amount of 2 ml,and lock-up time of 10 min.VAS score and Ramsay sedation score at 2 h,6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery were recorded,as well as the number of compressions within 48 h after surgery,and the incidence of adverse reactions were analyzed.RESULTS There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss,operation time and intraoperative urine volume among the three groups(P>0.05).VAS score in group A and group B at 2 h(2.0±0.3,2.2±0.4),6 h(1.8±0.4,1.9±0.4),12 h(1.8±0.4,1.7±0.4),24 h(1.6±0.3,1.5±0.4)and 48 h(1.1±0.3,1.2±0.4)were significantly lower than those in control group(2.8±0.5,2.3±0.5,2.1±0.4,2.0±0.5,1.7±0.5)(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between group A and group B(P>0.05).The Ramsay score of group A and group B at 2 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h after operation was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in Ramsay score between group A and group B(P>0.05).The total number of compressions and effective number of compressions in group A and group B at 12 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery were lower than those in control group(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference between group A and group B(P>0.05).The incidence of total adverse reactions in group B was higher than that in group A and control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of total adverse reactions between group A and control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Hydromorphone can effectively be used for postoperative self-controlled analgesia in patients with uvulopalatopharyngoplasty,and the efficacy is better than sufentanil,but the dose of 0.20 mg/kg hydromorphone has better safety than that of 0.3 mg/kg hydromorphone.

Purpose To explore the differences of the accuracy of detection and recognition of thyroid nodules and the diagnostic efficacy of benign and malignant thyroid nodules via artificial intelligence(AI)ultrasound assisted systems based on different ultrasound parameters.Materials and Methods A total of 147 patients with 289 nodules who underwent thyroid surgery in the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from March 30,2023 to May 1,2023 were prospectively selected.Different ultrasound parameters were adjusted and the AI system was used to detect and diagnose benign and malignant thyroid nodules via each parameter.Taken pathological results as the gold standard,the accuracy of thyroid nodule detection and the accuracy of benign and malignant diagnosis under different ultrasound parameters were compared,respectively.Results Under the standard ultrasound parameters,the accuracy of AI system in detecting thyroid nodules was 94.1%,the sensitivity for benign and malignant diagnosis was 90.9%,the specificity was 79.6%,and the accuracy was 86.6%,respectively.In terms of detection accuracy,accuracy under low gain(χ2=4.453,P=0.035)and high gain(χ2=6.215,P=0.013)parameters of AI system were significantly lower than those of standard ultrasound parameters.In terms of diagnostic efficacy,specificity(χ2=4.620,P=0.032),accuracy(χ2=7.521,P=0.006),area under the curve(Z=3.102,P=0.001),high gain sensitivity(χ2=6.170,P=0.013),accuracy(χ2=4.127,P=0.042),area under the curve(Z=2.152,P=0.031)and high depth accuracy(χ2=5.011,P=0.025),area under the curve(Z=2.420,P=0.015)of low gain were all significantly reduced compared to standard ultrasound parameters,with statistical differences.Conclusion When using the AI system to assist in the examination of thyroid nodules,attention should be paid to the adjustment of ultrasound instrument parameters.Improper parameter adjustment may reduce the AI system's ability to detect thyroid nodules and the accuracy of benign and malignant diagnosis.

AIM:To analyze the potential catego-ries and influencing factors of self concealment in breast cancer patients.METHODS:A total of 207 breast cancer patients from two hospitals in Anhui province were conveniently selected and investigat-ed with general information questionnaire,self con-cealment scale,perceived social support scale and chronic disease stigma scale.Potential profile analy-sis was used to explore the categories and charac-teristics of self concealment,and single factor anal-ysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of different categories.RE-SULTS:Self concealment of breast cancer patients was divided into two categories:low self conceal-ment group and high self concealment group.Logis-tic regression analysis showed that the main care-givers,comorbidities,perceived social support and sense of shame were the influencing factors of the potential profile of self concealment of breast can-cer patients(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Breast cancer patients have obvious category characteristics.Medical staff should pay attention to the level of self concealment of breast cancer patients,and for-mulate precision strategies according to different categories of influencing factors.

Background: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a highly desmoplastic tumor with poor prognosis even after curative resection. We investigated the associations between the composition of the ICC stroma and immune cell infiltration and aimed to develop a stromal-immune signature to predict prognosis in surgically treated ICC. Patients and methods: We recruited 359 ICC patients and performed immunohistochemistry to detect α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), CD3, CD4, CD8, Foxp3, CD68, and CD66b. Aniline was used to stain collagen deposition. Survival analyses were performed to detect prognostic values of these markers. Recursive partitioning for a discrete-time survival tree was applied to define a stromal-immune signature with distinct prognostic value. We delineated an integrated stromal-immune signature based on immune cell subpopulations and stromal composition to distinguish subgroups with different recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) time. Results: We defined four major patterns of ICC stroma composition according to the distributions of α-SMA and collagen: dormant (α-SMAlow/collagenhigh), fibrogenic (α-SMAhigh/collagenhigh), inert (α-SMAlow/collagenlow), and fibrolytic (α-SMAhigh/collagenlow). The stroma types were characterized by distinct patterns of infiltration by immune cells. We divided patients into six classes. Class I, characterized by high CD8 expression and dormant stroma, displayed the longest RFS and OS, whereas Class VI, characterized by low CD8 expression and high CD66b expression, displayed the shortest RFS and OS. The integrated stromal-immune signature was consolidated in a validation cohort. Conclusion We developed and validated a stromal-immune signature to predict prognosis in surgically treated ICC. These findings provide new insights into the stromal-immune response to ICC.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy of needle retaining after electroacupuncture combined with cognitive training and electroacupuncture combined with cognitive training in the treatment of post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI). METHODS: A total of 206 patients with PSCI were randomized into a needle retaining group (103 cases, 9 cases dropped out) and an electroacupuncture group (103 cases, 6 cases dropped out). In addition to the conventional basic medical treatment and the rehabilitation treatment, in the needle retaining group, electroacupuncture at Shenting (GV 24) and Baihui (GV 20) was applied, with continuous wave of 50 Hz in the first 15 min and with disperse-dense wave of 2 Hz/50 Hz in the last 15 min, the needles were continuously retained for 1 h after electroacupuncture, during which cognitive training was adopted; in the electroacupuncture group, cognitive training was performed after the same electric stimulation exerted for 30 min, without additional needles retaining. The treatment was given once a day, 5 times a week for totally 8 weeks in the two groups. Before and after 8-week treatment, the TCM syndrome score was observed; before and after 4,8-week treatment, the scores of mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) and ability of daily living were observed in the two groups. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated after 8-week treatment. RESULTS: After 8-week treatment, the TCM syndrome scores were increased compared with those before treatment in both groups (P<0.05); the TCM syndrome score in the needle retaining group was higher than that in the electroacupuncture group (P<0.05).After 4,8-week treatment, the scores of MMSE, MoCA and ability of daily living were increased compared with those before treatment in both groups (P<0.05); MMSE, MoCA scores after 4,8-week treatment and ability of daily living score after 8-week treatment in the needle retaining group were higher than those in the electroacupuncture group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 90.4% (85/94) in the needle retaining group, which was superior to 82.5% (80/97) in the electroacupuncture group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Both needle retaining after electroacupuncture combined with cognitive training and electroacupuncture combined with cognitive training can effectively treat PSCI, improve the clinical symptom, cognitive function and ability of daily living in PSCI patients. Needle retaining after electroacupuncture combined with cognitive training has a better therapeutic effect.
