This paper describes the development and challenge of HIV/AIDS testing laboratory network and quality assurance system in China. At present, the HIV/AIDS testing laboratories includes three classes, the National AIDS Reference Laboratory, HIV/AIDS confirmatory laboratories and HIV/AIDS screening laboratories. All of them are accredited by the health authorities, and each class of laboratories take charge of their function strictly according to the "National Management of HIV/AIDS Detection (2006)". A complete quality assurance and quality control system for HIV/AIDS testing has been developed, which includes technical training, strict laboratory monitoring and approval,examination or proficiency testing on HIV/AIDS detection, and quality evaluation and supervision of HIV/AIDS diagnostic kits. Besides conduct the routine anti-HIV antibody test, more and more laboratories began to conduct other tests, such as CD4+ T lymphocyte cell counting, HIV viral load, HIV DNA PCR, genotyping, drug resistance, and HIV-1 recent infection test. The primary challenges faced by the HIV/AIDS testing laboratory network are in the areas of laboratory management and quality control. For example, the provincial PT program is inefficient, the internal quality control is conducted perfunctorily, personnel training can not met the needs of the workplace, which need to be improved.

Microvessel density (MVD) is the gold standard to evaluate tumor angiogenesis. Contrastenhanced sonography has been developing fast in recent years. By measuring perfusion parameters, it can represent the degree of new angiogenesis of gynecologic malignant tumors indirectly, and evaluate the biobehavior and prognosis of tumor. The advances of correlations between contrast-enhanced sonographic appearance and MVD of gynecologic malignant tumors were reviewed.

Objective:To investigate the effects of propofol on pyramidal neuron apoptosis in hippocampus of neonatal rats. Methods: Forty-twoseven-day-old male and female Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups(n=14):group A received intraperitoneal 0.9% normal saline(7.5 ml/kg)once per day for seven days as control;group B received 0.9% normal saline(7.5 ml/kg)once per day for six days and propofol(75mg/kg)on the seventh day;group C received propofol(75 mg/kg)once per day for seven days. Two animals of each group were tested for blood glucose with tails cut off 3 hours after the last intraperitoneal injection,and six animals of each group were decapitated 5 hours after the last intraperitoneal injection for determination of caspase-3 expression with immuno-histochemistry. The other six animals of each group were decapitated after 3 weeks for microscopic examination. Results:Compared with group A,caspase-3 expression significantly increased while the number of pyramidal neurons decreased to different degree in both group B and C. More evident changes of the above were discovered in group C than that in group B,and the morphous of pyramidal neurons altered were only found in group C. Conclusion:The fact that increased caspase-3 expression leads to pyramidal neurons deletion to different degree was found in the rats which had received propofol.But the morphous ofpyramidal neurons altered onlywhen propofol had been repeatedlyinjected.

A clinically isolated syndrome(CIS) is a term that describes a first clinical episode in which a patient has symptoms and signs suggestive of an inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system.And it often affects optic nerves,the brainstem,or the spinal cord,and 30％-70％ of the CIS patients may develop multiple sclerosis(MS).Disease-modifying treatments may delay the development from CIS to MS.Their use in CIS is limited because of uncertain long-term clinical prognosis,treatment benefits and adverse effects.This article reviews the advances of predictive markers of conversion to MS after a CIS,in order to provide the reference for clinical treatment.

By analyzing the characteristics of maternal abdominal ECG (Electrocardiogram), a method based on wavelet transform and matched filtering is proposed to detect the R-wave in fetal EGG (FECG). In this method, the high-frequency coefficients are calculated by using wavelet transform. First, the maternal QRS template is obtained by using the arithmetic mean scheme. Finally, the R-wave of FECG is detected based on matched filtering. The experimental results show that this method can effectively eliminate the noises, such as the maternal ECG signal and baseline drift, enhancing the accuracy of the detection of fetal ECG.

Objective To develop secondary nursing discipline system based on the situation of China and the international trends of nursing education,which would be applied as the theoretical guideline for the construction of nursing system in China.Methods An indicator system of entry criteria of secondary nursing discipline was formed by examining the current situation of nursing knowledge body and organizational system in domestic and foreign countries through bibliometric and content analysis,were further supported in the panel meeting.Then the secondary nursing discipline system were constructed according to the entry criteria.Results Knowledge innovation,knowledge dissemination,personnel training and social needs of health were found to be the first indicators of the entry criteria,including 14 secondary indicators,10 secondary nursing disciplines were proposed.Conclusions The secondary nursing discipline system is in line with current situation of nursing at home and abroad,and would be gradually refined with the de velopment of nursing discipline.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of antiemetics in cancer patients. METHODS:Two thousand six hundred and sixteen pieces of medical orders of patients receiving antiemetics were collected from oncology department of our hospital via EMRS during Oct. 2015-Jun. 2016. RESULTS:Among 2 616 cases surveyed,1 301 cases conformed to inclusion and exclusion criteria,of which irrational use of drugs were found in 595 cases,760 times in total. Main manifestations were unsuitable drug selection(33.82%),irrational usage and dosage(25.26%),unsuitable drug combination(34.08%)and non-standard medication course(6.84%). The incidence of nausea in female was higher than male,with statistical sighificance(P=0.003),but gender had no significant effect on the incidence of nausea(P>0.05). Age had no significant effect on both nausea and vomiting(P>0.05). The control rate of nausea/vomiting in rational drug use group was higher than irrational drug use group. Average cost of antiemetic treatment of different emetic risk chemotherapy drugs in rational drug use group were all lower than irrational drug use group, indicating therapeutic efficacy could be guaranteed and economic burden was reduced in rational drug use group. CONCLUSIONS:The antiemetic plan should be selected rationally according to emetic risk degree of chemotherapy drugs. Patients receiving combined chemotherapy should select antiemetic plan according to highest emetic risk degree of chemotherapy drugs,and strictly master usage, dosage and duration. At the same time,treatment cost should be considered when selecting antiemetic plan to guarantee the safe, effective,economical and rational use of drugs.

Cysteine protease inhibitor SN (Cystatin SN) is a secretory protein encoded by CST1,with the promotion of cell senescence and apoptosis activity,playing an important role in the regulation of proteolytic activity.Many studies have found that Cystatin SN is abnormally expressed in various kinds of tumors,and is closely related with the tumorigenesis and progression.Cystatin SN may play an important role in the diagnosis and prognosis of tumors.
