    Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly permeating various fields of hospital pharmacy, bringing transformative opportunities to prescription review, clinical medication decision-making, patient education, and pharmacy administration. However, challenges remain in ensuring the professional accuracy of generated content, maintaining output stability, and achieving adequate controllability of model outputs. As the primary interface for human-AI interaction in healthcare, prompt design critically determines the professionalism, safety, and regulatory compliance of AI outputs. Yet, standardized prompt frameworks tailored to the complex practice scenarios of hospital pharmacy remain unavailable. Therefore, the Chinese Hospital Association Pharmaceutical Specialized Committee, the National Institute of Hospital Administration Pharmaceutical Information Expert Committee and the Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence Bioinformatics and Artificial Life Specialized Committee led a multidisciplinary collaboration to develop the consensus. This consensus formulated 14 recommendations, proposing general principles for GenAI application in hospital pharmacy and methodologies for prompt design. It clarified the application boundaries and differentiated prompt design essentials for five core scenarios-pharmaceutical care, pharmacy education, pharmaceutical research, pharmacy administration, and popular science in pharmacy. Also, it highlighted the current limitations of GenAI applications. As the first expert consensus in the field of hospital pharmacy focusing on GenAI application and prompt engineering, it aims to provide systematic theoretical guidance and practical tools for pharmacy professionals, standardize the rational application of GenAI, enhance the quality of intelligent pharmaceutical services, and ultimately promote high-quality development of hospital pharmacy.

    Objective To investigate the mechanism of pancreatic lipid metabolism of Gegen Qinlian Decoction (GQD) on insulin resistance (IR) and hypoxia in obese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats. Methods A total of 54 SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group and high fat group. The normal control group and the high-fat group were fed the normal diet for 13 weeks, and the serum IR index and HIF-2α content of rats were detected to establish the IR with hypoxia model. The model rats were randomly divided into model control group, positive drug group (rosiglitazone 5 mg·kg-1) and GQD high and low dose group (14.86, 1.65 g·kg-1). The model rats continued to be fed high-fat diet, while the normal control group was fed ordinary diet, and were given continuous gavage for 16 weeks. After administration, fasting insulin levels (FINS) were detected by radioimmunoassay, HIF-2α was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), fasting blood glucose (FBG) was detected by automatic biochemical analyzer. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes of pancreas. UPLC-Q-TOF-MS was used to collect pancreatic lipid metabolism data, and principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to analyze the lipid metabolism of rat pancreatic tissue samples, and the markers of pancreatic metabolic difference were identified. Metabolic pathway analysis of potential biomarkers was performed using the Metabo Analyst 5.0 online website.The protein expressions of iPLA2 and CerS6 in pancreatic tissue were detected by Western blotting.Results ① Compared with model control group, FPG, IR index and HIF-2α of GQD high-dose and low-dose groups were significantly decreased,and the protein expressions of iPLA2 and CerS6 were also decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and irregular morphology of pancreatic islets of positive group and Gegen Qinlian decoction high-dose and low-dose groups were improved. ② The results of pancreatic metabolomics showed that there were 24 potential biomarkers in the model group, of which 3 biomarkers significantly increased and 21 biomarkers significantly decreased. GQD intervention could make the above biomarkers reverse. The 24 potential biomarkers of pancreatic lipids mainly regulate 7 metabolic pathways, including glycerophospholipid metabolism, sphingolipid metabolism, glycosyl phosphatidylinositol anchored biosynthesis, linoleic acid metabolism, unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis, steroid hormone biosynthesis and α-linolenic acid metabolism. Conclusion The intervention of GQD on IR with anoxia in obese type 2 diabetes may improve the lipid metabolism disorders by regulating the contents of phospholipids, unsaturated fatty acids and steroid hormones in pancreas and their metabolic pathways.

    Objective To establish a high-throughput HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of 11 common antibacterial agents in acyclovir eye drops and to evaluate the quality and safety of the antibacterial agents in 42 batches of national drug inspection samples. Methods Gradient elution was performed on a Kromasil 100-5-C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm) column with acetonitrile-5 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate aqueous solution (containing 1% triethylamine,pH adjusted to 4.5 by acetic acid) as the mobile phase.The detection wavelength was 262 nm. Results Good linear relationships were obtained for 11 antibacterial agents (r≥0.999 9).The average recovery range was 98.2%-101.8%,and the RSD was 0.7%-2.7% (n=9).As revealed by the systematic analysis of 42 batches of national drug inspection samples,some batches of samples were detected with out-of-prescription antibacterial agents 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and ethylparaben,and the results were 0.02-49 μg·mL-1.This indicated that ethylparaben degradation and colinear production pollution were the two major risk sources. Conclusions The method is accurate,sensitive,and specific and can be used for the qualitative and quantitative detection of antibacterial agents in acyclovir eye drops.Besides,some products have degradation of antibacterial agents and incomplete cleaning during co-linear production.It is still essential to further reinforce product quality control.
