ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To analyze the dose-adjusted concentrations of Posaconazole oral suspension in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation （HSCT） and their influential factors. METHODS Data were collected from hospitalized HSCT patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University （Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital） from January 2021 to April whtwhm@yeah.net 2023 who took Posaconazole oral suspension for the prevention of invasive fungal disease （IFD） and received blood concentration of posaconazole. The rate of concentration attainment and clinical failure rate of posaconazole for the prevention of IFD were evaluated， and one-way and multiple linear regression analyses were performed for the influential factors of dose-adjusted concentrations （C0/D） of posaconazole. RESULTS A total of 44 patients were enrolled； the mean C0 of posaconazole in patients was （0.99±0.94） µg/mL， and 20 patients had a C0≥0.7 μg/mL， with a concentration attainment rate of 45.45% for the prevention of IFD； 13 cases were clinical failures， with a clinical failure rate of 29.55%. Of 24 patients who did not achieve C0/D of posaconazole for IFD prophylaxis， one patient was a clinical failure despite timely dose adjustment of posaconazole in seven patients； seven of the thirteen patients who did not undergo dose adjustment were clinical failures； and the remaining four patients were switched to other antifungal agents. The results of univariate analysis showed that gender， body mass index （BMI）， renal function， combined use of sodium phenytoin， omeprazole and metoclopramide had a significant effect on the C0/D of posaconazole （P＜0.05）； the results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that gender， BMI and combined use of sodium phenytoin were the independent factors affecting the C0/D of posaconazole （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Significant individual differences are reflected in the blood concentration of Posaconazole oral suspension； gender， BMI and combined use of sodium phenytoin are independent factors affecting the C0/D of posaconazole.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To discuss the factors affecting the blood concentration of high-dose methotrexate （HD-MTX） and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions （ADR） when treating lymphoma with HD-MTX. METHODS From July 2020 to November 2021， the information of HD-MTX patients who had been monitored for HD-MTX blood drug concentration in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University was collected by retrospective analysis， such as medical record number， age， sex， height， body mass， chemotherapy plan， dosage； test indexes such as alanine transaminase， aspartate transaminase， total bilirubin， creatinine clearance （CrCl）， albumin （ALB） and other indexes were also collected before and after administration. The blood concentrations （c6 h， c24 h， c48 h） of HD-MTX were recorded， drug information of proton pump inhibitors （PPIs） was extracted and used， and ADR occurring within 48 h after administration were all evaluated. Single factor analysis， multiple linear regression and χ2 test were used to analyze the influential factors. RESULTS A total of 133 patients were included in this paper. The results of the single factor analysis of HD-MTX blood drug concentration showed that age， CrCl had an effect on c 6 h （P＜0.05）； age， CrCl and ALB had an effect on c24 h （P＜0.05）； age， body mass index （BMI）， CrCl， combined use of PPIs and ALB had an effect on c48 h （P＜0.05）. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age and CrCl had no effect on c 6 h （P＞0.05）， age was the main influential factor of c 24 h （P＜0.05）， and CrCl and combined use of PPIs were the main influential factors of c48 h （P＜0.05）； the coefficient of variance expansion was between 1 and 3.5， indicating that the analysis results were acceptable. The overall incidence of adverse reactions was 51.13%， of which the blood and lymphatic system reactions were the most common. The results of the influential factors of ADR showed that age， BMI， liver function and CrCl had effect on the incidence of ADR （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS During the process of HD-MTX in the treatment of lymphoma， the patient’s age， CrCl and combined use of PPIs should be considered， and the patient’s blood concentration should be monitored； at the same time， the age of patients， BMI， liver function and CrCl have an impact on the incidence of ADR.
ABSTRACT
Radical cystectomy is widely used as a gold standard in the treatment of invasive bladder cancer. Urinary diversion is required after radical cystectomy. In all kinds of urinary diversion procedures, orthotopic neobladder is preferred by its advantages such as spontaneous voiding, avoidance of external ostomy and improvement of body image. After surgery, urinary incontinence is a common complication. In this review, we systematically outline the management of urinary incontinence in men after radical cystectomy and orthotopic neobladder. And we mainly describe the influential factors of urinary incontinence, such as preoperative diabetes, intraoperative intestinal selection and nerve preservation, and postoperative urinary tract infection. The related post-operative management of urinary incontinence that has been conducted previously is also described in detail. The aim of this study is to provide guidance for the systematic treatment of urinary incontinence in clinical practice, and to look forward to the possible future development directions of urinary incontinence treatment, such as bladder neck reconstruction and stem cell therapy.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: During the orthodontic treatment, the results of related reports on potential risk factors affecting the clinical success rate of miniscrew implants are inconsistent. The influential factors that clinicians concern are not all included in this study, and the conclusions from animal experiments are difficult to apply to clinical practice directly. Therefore, what factors affect the clinical success rate of miniscrew implants need further thorough and systematic research. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the factors that influence the clinical success rate of miniscrew implants used as orthodontic anchorage. METHODS: A total of 114 patients with oral implants, including 42 males and 72 females, aged (19. 26±9. 19) years were included in this study. A total of 253 miniscrew implants were implanted as orthodontic anchorage. The following influential factors were included: Gender, age, vertical skeletal facial pattern, implant site, implant arch, soft tissue type at the implant site, oral hygiene status, diameter and length of the miniscrew implants, implantation method, implantation angle, stress loading timing and intensity, and clinical use. Logistic regression analysis was used to study the correlation between success rate and all variables. Analysis of variance was used to test the effect of each variable on clinical success rate. This trial protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Sichuan University. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Among 253 successful miniscrew implants, the overall success rate was 88. 54% with an average loading period of 9. 5 months. The average loading period of the 29 failed miniscrew implants was 2. 3 months. The chi-square test, Fisher exact test and Logistic regression revealed that age, oral hygiene, vertical skeletal facial pattern, and implant site were significantly correlated with clinical success rate (P 0. 05). These results suggest that to minimize the failure of miniscrew implants, proper oral hygiene instruction and effective supervision should be given to patients, in particular to those young (< 12 years) high mandibular plane patients.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To evaluate the influential factors for drug-induced liver injury （DILI） caused by routine lung cancer chemotherapy plan and the rationality of hepatoprotective drugs. METHODS： The information of lung cancer patients receiving routine chemotherapy in our hospital from Feb. 1st， 2018 to Jan. 31st， 2019 were selected. The occurrence of DILI induced by different routine chemotherapy plans， the correlation of each influential factor with DILI and the rationality of hepatoprotective drugs were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS： A total of 325 patients were involved in this study， among which 126 patients （38.77％） suffered from DILI， involving 109 first-level cases （33.54％） and 17 second-level cases （5.23％）. Routine chemotherapy plan included etoposide+cisplatin， gemcitabine+cisplatin， docetaxel+platinum， pemetrexed disodium+platinum. The clinical classification of DILI included hepatocyte injury type 44 cases （14.52％）， cholestasis type 38 cases （12.54％） and mixed type 37 cases （12.21％）. Totally 174 patients （53.54％） received hepatoprotective drugs during chemo-therapy， among whom 49 patients （28.16％） suffered from first-level DILI and 6 patients （3.45％） second-level DILI， with total incidence of 31.61％. Among patients without hepatoprotective drugs， 60 patients （39.74％） suffered from first-level DILI， and 11 patients （7.28％） suffered from second-level DILI， with total incidence of 47.02％. The incidence of DILI in patients without hepatoprotective drugs was significantly higher than those with hepatoprotective drugs （P＜0.05）. Among patients with hepatoprotective drugs， 23 patients （13.22％） used hepatoprotective drugs unreasonably， including 5 patients （2.87％） received 3 kinds or more hepatoprotective drugs； 3 patients （1.72％） received drugs with same mechanism repeatedly； 11 patients （6.32％） received 3 kinds or more drugs and drug with same mechanism repeatedly； 4 patients （2.30％） used drugs contrary to contraindication. Influential factor correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between DILI and the dosage of chemotherapeutic drugs， treatment course and KPS before chemotherapy （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： KPS before chemotherapy， dosage of chemotherapeutic agents and treatment course are the main factors of DILI. There is still unreasonable use of drugs such as repeated use， unreasonable drug combination， violation of drug contraindications. The use of hepatoprotective drugs during chemotherapy can reduce the risk of DILI occurrence. Clinicians should be more aware of the methods and indications of hepatoprotective drugs in order to improve the effectiveness and safety of drug use.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for constructing ADR damage relief system in China. METHODS： Questionnaire survey was conducted among 217 pharmaceutical manufacturers in Shaanxi province by census method. Fisher’s exact test， Pearson χ2 test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the factors effecting construction of ADR damage relief systerm unter marketing authorization holder （MAH） system， and the interaction among various factors. RESULTS： A total of 217 drug manufacturers were investigated in this study （217 questionnaires were sent out）. 209 questionnaires were collected and 204 valid questionnaires were screened out with recovery rate of 94.01％. Totally 9 independent influential factors screened by Fisher’s exact test and Pearson χ2 test had a significant impact on the attitude of building ADR damage relief system under MAH system， i.e. the last year’s earnings of enterprises， the proportion of pharmaceutical technicians， whether to set up R&D departments， whether to obtain new drugs/generic drugs in recent 3 years， whether to actively carry out post-marketing safety evaluation of drugs， whether ADR commissioners are familiar with ADR-related policies in MAH system， cognition about whether MAH system promotes the development of pharmaceutical industry， the development direction of enterprises after the full implementation of MAH， cognition about the lack of legal basis for ADR damage relief （P＜0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that whether the ADR specialist was familiar with the ADR-related policies in MAH system was the main influential factor for constructing ADR damage relief system under the MAH system （P＝0.044）. It was positively correlated with the attitude of approving the construction of ADR damage relief system under MAH system （B＝1.697）. CONCLUSIONS： The pharmaceutical manufacturers， in which ADR specialists who are familiar with the ADR-related policies in the MAH system， are more inclined to agree to constructing ADR damage relief system under MAH system.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To systematically evaluate the status quo of cost estimation in pharmacy intravenous admixture services （PIVAS）， and to provide cost basis for the construction of PIVAS in China. METHODS： Retrieved from PubMed， Embase， Cochrane library， CBM， CNKI， CSJD and Wanfang database from database establishment to Jan. 2019， the studies about the status quo of cost estimation in PIVAS of China were included. The descriptive analysis was conducted for content and method of cost estimation， infection to hospital. RESULTS： A total of 17 literatures were included， involving 8 before and after control studies， 6 experience sharing studies and 3 reviews. Existing reports showed that the estimation contents and methods of PIVAS cost were roughly the same. The cost included manpower， medical and health materials， fixed asset purchase， depreciation， repair costs， medicine cost and indirect costs. At the same time， the infection to hospital were reported， such as in manpower adopting， formulating detailed management measures and systems， concurrent allocation of the same kind of drugs， shortening infusion preparation and replacement time， in order to save manpower cost. CONCLUSIONS： PIVAS cost calculation method is roughly the same in some hospitals， but there is no uniform standard. It is necessary to further improve the PIVAS cost measurement standard and provide a basis for the construction and development of PIVAS in China.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To study the benefit incidence equity and its influential factors of drug welfare for chronic diseases patients under the background of health poverty alleviation policy， and to provide reference for precision health poverty alleviation. METHODS： According to the National Natural Science Foundation project “Study on the Optimization of Precision Health Poverty Alleviation Policy Based on the Improvement of Drug Welfare Effects of Chronic Diseases Patients”， the research data of Jiangsu， Sichuan and Zhejiang provinces were used as samples （during Oct. 2016-May 2018）. Taking patients’ personal income as economic measurement index， drug expenditure （including reimbursement） as drug welfare index under government health policy， by benefit incidence analysis， Lorentz curve， Gini coefficient， concentration index， concentration curve and Kakwani index were used to analyze the absolute equity and relative equity of drug welfare benefits of patients with chronic diseases. Anderson health service utilization model was used to incorporate the factors that may affect the distribution of drug benefits among the poor patients with chronic diseases. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to identify the main influential factors. RESULTS： The absolute fairness and relative fairness of drug welfare distribution in patients with chronic diseases were poor， and there were unfair phenomena that were beneficial to the rich and unfavorable to the poor chronic disease patients. Economic income， education level， types of medical insurance and patients’ health level had effects on drug welfare with statistical significance （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： The health poverty alleviation policy brings drug welfare to patients with chronic diseases，but there are still unfairness. The policy should be more biased towards the poor people，also more chronic disease “life-saving drugs” and commonly used drugs should be included in the medical insurance catalogue. Health education for chronic diseases in primary medical institutions should be strengthened to improve the health literacy and health of patients with chronic diseases.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the situation and influential factors of hospital pharmacist career planning and career satisfaction and their relationship. METHODS:The questionnaire modified according to"general career planning and career satisfaction scale"was adopted for questionnaire survey among pharmacists in 5 third grade class A hospitals by simple random sampling. The factor analysis was used to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire. The influential factors of career planning and satisfaction degree,the relationship of career planning with satisfaction degree were analyzed by multiple regression analysis and Spearman correlation coefficient. RESULTS:Totally 210 questionnaires were sent out and 198 were effectively received,with effective recovery of 94.28%. Cronbach'α value of reliability and validity test was 0.939(>0.6),and KMO value was 0.905(close to 1). Results of survey showed that there was statistical significance in the effects of gender,age,marital status, work experience,professional title and position on career planning(P<0.05). There was statistical significance in the effects of age and professional title on satisfaction degree(P<0.05). Different dimensions of career planning(self-assessment,career awareness and action,position questions)were positively correlated with career satisfaction degree(total correlation coefficients were 0.649,0.633,0.694). CONCLUSIONS:Career planning is mainly influenced by gender,age,marital status,work experience,professional title and position. Career satisfaction degree is greatly influenced by age and position.The better the career planning is,the higher the satisfaction is. It is suggested to conduct professional training of hospital pharmacists by referring to the theory and experience of management,help pharmacists to fully understand the job responsibilities and do a good job in the position of professional roles. The establishment of scientific and effective career planning management system improves self-management ability of hospital pharmacists and career satisfaction degree,and promotes the development of discipline.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To provide evidence and reference for online pharmacy business and government policy adjustment. METHODS: Taking Ningbo as an example, intercepting questionnaires survey was conducted in major drugstores and major commercial centers. The influential factors of online drug purchase, specific reasons of not purchasing drugs online, online drug purchase "5W1H" behavior characteristics and influential factors of purchase decision were investigated. The data processing was conducted by using EpiDate 3. 1 and SPSS 19. 0 software. RESULTS: A total of 700 questionnaires were issued, and 660 valid questionnaires were collected with effective recovery of 94. 29％. Educational degree of the respondents, internet frequency and online shopping frequency had significant impact on whether purchased drugs on the internet (P＜0. 05), while gender, age, place of residence and type of medical insurance had no significant impact on it (P＞0. 05). Among specific reasons for not purchasing drugs online, score decended by the order of worrying about the safety of purchasing drugs online, worrying about the logistics and after-sales service, can not get professional medical and pharmaceutical care. Among the characteristics of network drug purchase behavior, 50. 2％ of respondents purchased drugs online out of the cheapness; 41. 2％ buying goods that were not available locally; Tmall and Jingdong mall were the main way to buy, accounted for 78. 9％ and 44. 2％, respectively. Within the last 6 months, online purchasing less than 5 times accounted for 72. 4％, and the amount less than 300 yuan accounted for 57. 3％. Most respondents expected to pay by Alipay and medical insurance card, each accounted for 53. 8％. Among decision-making influential factors, score decended by the order of commodity factor, after-sales service and logistics, shop and business qualification, professional service; price factor scored the lowest. CONCLUSIONS: The higher educational degree, internet frequency and online shopping frequency, the more inclined to online drug purchase. Low trust, logistics and customer service difficult to guarantee and inability to get professional service are main reasons for not purchasing drugs online. The characteristics of online drug purchase manifest as low amount, low frequency and single way. Great attention is paid to the nature of drug properties, the business qualification, after-sale rights protection and logistics efficiency, when the consumer decides to buy. It is suggested to improve online pharmacy business and related policy adjustment by forming differential marketing model, strengthening consumer confidence, cultivating consumption habits, strengthening after-sales guarantee and logistics construction, choosing suitable sale platform and professional development, avoiding vicious price-cutting competition.
