    Abstract In order to provide safe and effective pharmaceutical care to patients and their family members in clinical practice, pharmacists should receive appropriate clinical training after obtaining their license, as is standard in other medical professions. At present, there is no national framework in Japan for the early clinical training of pharmacists after licensure. However, pharmacy residency programs have been autonomously developed and implemented at some university hospitals and other medical institutions. This article describes the current status of clinical training of pharmacists after licensure in Japan. Furthermore, the standards for pharmacy residency programs, the outline of a core program for clinical training, and the career paths of hospital pharmacists after training are discussed.

    Rho-Kinase as a Novel Drug Target

    Abstract Schizophrenia is one of the most serious psychiatric disorders and is characterized by reductions in both brain volume and spine density in the frontal cortex. RhoA belongs to the RAS homolog (Rho) family and plays critical roles in neuronal development and structural plasticity via Rho-kinase. RhoA activity is regulated by GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) and guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). Several variants in GAPs and GEFs associated with RhoA have been reported to be significantly associated with schizophrenia. Moreover, several mouse models carrying schizophrenia-associated gene variants involved in RhoA/Rho-kinase signaling have been developed. In this review, we summarize clinical evidence showing that variants in genes regulating RhoA activity are associated with schizophrenia. In the last half of the review, we discuss preclinical evidence indicating that RhoA/Rho-kinase is a potential therapeutic target of schizophrenia. In particular, Rho-kinase inhibitors exhibit anti-psychotic-like effects not only in Arhgap10 S490P/NHEJ mice, but also in pharmacologic models of schizophrenia (methamphetamine- and MK-801-treated mice). Accordingly, we propose that Rho-kinase inhibitors may have antipsychotic effects and reduce cognitive deficits in schizophrenia despite the presence or absence of genetic variants in small GTPase signaling pathways.

    Abstract The actual use of heated tobacco products (HTPs) among smokers with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is little known. The objective of this study was to clarify the prevalence and reasons for HTP use among smokers with RA. We administered a web survey to a research company panel in Japan between December 2020 and January 2021. After 170,000 panelists completed a primary questionnaire regarding smoking and disease status, 198 smokers with RA completed a secondary questionnaire regarding the reasons for HTP use and perceptions about the harmfulness of HTPs. The primary questionnaire revealed that smokers with RA were more likely to use HTPs than smokers without RA, and the adjusted odds ratio of RA for HTP use was one of the highest factors among other diseases (adjusted OR: 2.34, 95% CI: 1.92-2.85,

    Abstract Cancer chemotherapy outcomes have improved markedly after the introduction of cytotoxic anticancer drugs, molecular target medicines, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) into clinical practice. Chemotherapy regimens are specified treatment plans that include the dose of each anticancer drug, duration of treatment, and other supportive care drugs such as antiemetics. A chemotherapy regimen leads to the standardization of cancer pharmacotherapy, leading to medical safety and efficiency. Most molecular target medicines and ICIs have companion diagnostic agents (CDxs) that predict the treatment effect based on the gene variant (driver gene) and its expression level. In addition, oncogene panel tests have recently become covered by health insurance in Japan. However, there are some strict regulations and problems with their clinical use. Most molecular target medicines and ICIs have various side effects that are different from those of cytotoxic anticancer drugs. To provide more effective care and nursing to patients receiving cancer chemotherapy, clinical nurses need to understand the basic pharmacologic characteristics of each cancer medicine and provide patients with information about side effects and potential effects on daily life.

    Abstract Clinical evidence of mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke(AIS)has been reported since 2015, and there is an urgent need for the preparation of medical treatment systems for AIS. The Japan Stroke Society and the Japan Circulation Society published a 5-year plan for stopping CVD in December 2016. In December 2018, the Stroke and Cardiovascular Disease Control Act was enacted in Japan. In this review, we present the future plan of medical treatment systems for stroke.
