摘要
简介糖皮质激素（GCs）具有抗炎和免疫抑制作用，在许多风湿性疾病的治疗中发挥着至关重要的作用。除了复杂的治疗方案和各种公认的不良反应外，不适当地使用糖皮质激素还会加剧与糖皮质激素相关的问题。虽然目前已有一些处理这些问题的指南，但缺乏从患者层面评估这些问题的实际研究。本研究旨在找出风湿性疾病患者中存在的与 GC 相关的问题，并探讨如何解决这些问题：这项前瞻性随访研究于 2021 年 1 月至 2022 年 6 月期间在一所大学的风湿病门诊进行，研究对象包括使用 GCs 的患者。临床药剂师在基线、3 个月和 6 个月时对患者进行了评估，以发现可能与 GC 相关的问题。确定的问题、问题的原因、解决这些问题的干预措施以及问题的结果均采用欧洲药品护理网络（PCNE v9.1）分类系统进行分类。在患者下次复诊时对问题的解决情况进行评估：结果：共纳入 156 名患者，其中 66% 的患者出现了 236 个与 GC 相关的问题。在与 GC 相关的问题中，药物不良事件（可能）所占比例最高（94.1%），最常见的原因是缺乏对 GC 相关不良事件的实验室监测（41.5%）以及尽管存在适应症但缺乏药物治疗（39.8%）。出现 GC 相关问题的患者的泼尼松龙累积剂量中位数更高（3115 毫克对 5455 毫克，P = 0.007）。临床药剂师提出了 381 项干预建议：47.7%（n = 182）属于 "处方水平"，31.8%（n = 121）属于 "患者水平"，20.5%（n = 78）属于 "药物水平"。在这些干预措施中，98%被接受，80.1%的问题得到解决：这项研究表明，风湿病患者中与 GC 相关问题的发生率很高。将临床药剂师纳入多学科风湿病团队，有利于在早期阶段有效识别和管理与 GC 相关的问题。本文章由计算机程序翻译，如有差异，请以英文原文为准。
Addressing Glucocorticoid-Related Problems with the Clinical Pharmacist Collaboration in Rheumatology Practice: A Prospective Follow-Up Study.
Introduction: Glucocorticoids (GCs) play a crucial role in the treatment of many rheumatic diseases regarding their anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. Inappropriate use of GCs can exacerbate GC-related problems besides complex treatment regimens and miscellaneous well-established adverse events. Although several guidelines exist for managing these problems, there is lack of real-life studies evaluating the problems at the patient level. This study aims to identify GC-related problems among patients with rheumatic diseases and address how they have been solved.
Methods: This prospective follow-up study was conducted between January 2021 and June 2022 at a university rheumatology outpatient clinic and included patients using GCs. A clinical pharmacist assessed patients for possible GC-related problems at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Identified problems, their causes, interventions to address these problems, and their outcomes were categorized using the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe (PCNE v9.1) classification system. The resolution of the problems was evaluated at the patient's next follow-up visit.
Results: A total of 156 patients were included, and 236 GC-related problems were identified in 66% of the patients. Adverse drug events (possible) accounted for the highest proportion of GC-related problems (94.1%), and the most common causes were lack of laboratory monitoring of GC-related adverse events (41.5%) and lack of drug treatment despite existing indications (39.8%). The median cumulative prednisolone dose was higher in patients with GC-related problems (3115 vs. 5455 mg, p = 0.007). The clinical pharmacist suggested 381 interventions: 47.7% (n = 182) at the 'prescriber level', 31.8% (n = 121) at the 'patient level', and 20.5% (n = 78) at the 'drug level'. Of those interventions, 98% were accepted, and 80.1% of the problems were solved.
Conclusions: This study showed that the prevalence of GC-related problems is high in patients with rheumatic diseases. Integrating clinical pharmacists into the multidisciplinary rheumatology team provides an advantage in effectively identifying and managing GC-related problems at an early stage.

期刊介绍：
Aims and Scope
Rheumatology and Therapy is an international, open access, peer reviewed, rapid publication journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality clinical (all phases), observational, real-world and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of rheumatologic therapies. Studies relating to diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also welcomed.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, gouty arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, juvenile idiopathic/rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, axial spondyloarthritis, Pompe’s disease, inflammatory joint conditions, musculoskeletal conditions, systemic sclerosis, and fibromyalgia.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, case reports, trial protocols, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Rheumatology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research.
Ethics and Disclosures
The journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and subscribes to its principles on how to deal with acts of misconduct thereby committing to investigate allegations of misconduct in order to ensure the integrity of research. Content in this journal is peer-reviewed (Single-blind). For more information on our publishing ethics policies, please see here: https://www.springer.com/gp/editorial-policies
Rapid Publication
The journal’s rapid publication timelines aim for a peer review decision within 2 weeks of submission. If an article is accepted it will be published online 3-4 weeks from acceptance. These rapid timelines are achieved through the combination of a dedicated in-house editorial team, who closely manage article workflow, and an extensive Editorial and Advisory Board who assist with rapid peer review. This allows the journal to support the rapid dissemination of research, whilst still providing robust peer review. Combined with the journal’s open access model this allows for the rapid and efficient communication of the latest research and reviews, allowing the advancement of rheumatologic therapies.
Personal Service
The journal’s dedicated in-house editorial team offer a personal “concierge service” meaning that authors will always have a personal point of contact able to update them on the status of their manuscript. The editorial team check all manuscripts to ensure that articles conform to the most recent COPE, GPP and ICMJE publishing guidelines. This supports the publication of ethically sound and transparent research. We also encourage pre-submission enquiries and are always happy to provide a confidential assessment of manuscripts.
Digital Features
Rheumatology and Therapy offers a range of additional features designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. Each article is accompanied by key summary points, giving a time-efficient overview of the content to a wide readership. Articles may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge of, but not in-depth expertise in, the area to understand the scientific content and overall implications of the article. The journal also provides the option to include various types of digital features including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations. All additional features are peer reviewed to the same high standard as the article itself. If you consider that your paper would benefit from the inclusion of a digital feature, please let us know. Our editorial team are able to create high-quality slide decks and infographics in-house, and video abstracts through our partner Research Square, and would be happy to assist in any way we can. For further information about digital features, please contact the journal editor (see ‘Contact the Journal’ for email address), and see the ‘Guidelines for digital features and plain language summaries’ document under ‘Submission guidelines’.

Preprints
We encourage posting of preprints of primary research manuscripts on preprint servers, authors'' or institutional websites, and open communications between researchers whether on community preprint servers or preprint commenting platforms. Posting of preprints is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration in our journals. Authors should disclose details of preprint posting during the submission process or at any other point during consideration in the journal. Once the manuscript is published, it is the author''s responsibility to ensure that the preprint record is updated with a publication reference, including the DOI and a URL link to the published version of the article on the journal website.

Peer Review Process
Upon submission, manuscripts are assessed by the editorial team to ensure they fit within the aims and scope of the journal and are also checked for plagiarism. All suitable submissions are then subject to a comprehensive single-blind peer review. Reviewers are selected based on their relevant expertise and publication history in the subject area. The journal has an extensive pool of editorial and advisory board members who have been selected to assist with peer review based on the afore-mentioned criteria.
At least two extensive reviews are required to make the editorial decision. Where reviewer recommendations are conflicted, the editorial board will be contacted for further advice and a presiding decision. Manuscripts are then either accepted, rejected or authors are required to make major or minor revisions (both reviewer comments and editorial comments may need to be addressed). Once a revised manuscript is re-submitted, it is assessed along with the responses to reviewer comments and if it has been adequately revised it will be accepted for publication. Accepted manuscripts are then copyedited and typeset by the production team before online publication. Appeals against decisions following peer review are considered on a case-by-case basis and should be sent to the journal editor, and authors are welcome to make rebuttals against individual reviewer comments if appropriate.
Considering the time and effort required for a detailed peer review we reward our regular reviewers with the opportunity to publish without publication fees (pending peer review) for every three reviews completed per calendar year.
