Objective To improve EP9-A2 for Bias estimation among multiple quantitative detection systems within full range of AMR.Methods 40 patients specimens were determined twice for serum total cholesterol by four detection systems(A,B,C and D).With system A served as comparative method,Bias between A and the other three was evaluated according to CLSI EP9-A2 separately.Furthermore,DD(distance from deviation to tolerable error)and its average confidence intervals between every two sys-tem were calculated and compared with zero.The confidence interval of greater than zero was served as criteria for accepting bias between every two system.Results Bias between A and the other three meet the analytical quality specification according to EP9-A2,although that of D system was positive,and those of B and C system were negative.DD between every two system obeyed nor-mality distribution.All biases between every two system wes acceptable except that between B and D,causing of their interval con-taining zero.After correcting of results from system D,Biases between every two system were all acceptable.Plots of confidence in-terval could provide a full range bias assessment within AMR.Conclusion Comparability and Bias estimation in full range of AMR for results between every two system among 3 or more systems could be evaluated by confidence intervals.

Objective To promote the progress in varicella-zoster virus (VZV) immunoglobulin preparation,a rapid microneutralization test ( RMNt) was set up for screening plasmapheresis donations with high titers of special neutralizing antibodies to VZV.Methods With reference to the VZV immunoglobulin (VZIG) preparation standard of FDA and VZIG international unit ( IU) , a screening standard was formulated; the amount of virus was analyzed to determine the optimal conditions for RMNt;screening technology was established and the IU was introduced as quality control ;twenty samples of apheresis plasma and fifteen samples of pooled plasma were diluted at 1∶2 to 1∶256 and tested by RMNt respectively;and the sensitivity of RMNt was also analyzed by the commercial ELISA kit .Results Plasma samples that were diluted at 1∶16 and had a titer more than 0.4 U/ml could be used in the production of VZIG .1500 PFU/ml titers of virus in RMNt pro-duced readable results in plasma screening .Eight apheresis plasma samples tested met the screening standard , but none of the pooled samples tested positive .RMNt had a good linear relationship with ELISA (r=0.895 24,P<0.0001).Conclu-sion The sensitivity, throughput and operability of the established RMNt can be used in the screening of plasma donations as key techniques for the production of VZIG .

With the development of molecular imaging technology, incorporate multiple modes of medical imaging imaging techniques of SPECT/CT and PET/CT technology with a certain degree of development. But compared to SPECT/CT and PET/CT technologies, SPECT/CT far earlier than PET/CT technology to clinical applications, due to a variety of factors influence SPECT/CT far PET/CT clinical applications to grow faster. This article highlights the progress and problems of SPECT/CT technology.

Objective To assess the effect of variable durations of warm ischemia on renal function early after laparoscopic partial nephrectomy ( LPN ) and make the definite safety duration of renal warm ischemia.Methods The clinical data of 76 patients treated with LPN from October 2012 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into 3 groups based on warm ischemic time,namely group A (28 cases) with warm ischemia time less than 20 min,group B (34 cases) with warm ischemia time more than 20 min and less than 30 min, group C ( 14 cases ) with warm ischemia time more than 30 min.LPN was performed with renal artery clamping alone in all the patients.Preoperative and postoperative renal scintigraphic scan was performed to access glomerular filtration rate ( GFR) in all patients.The GFR values were compared among before, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after operation.The factors predicting the early renal injury were assessed by multivariate regression analysis.Results The renal GFR of the kidney underwent LPN decreased 19.43(17.70,22.06) ml/min at 1 week,17.04(13.94,20.70) ml/min at 1 month,13.82(10.72,18.73) ml/min at 3 months after the surgery in group C,respectively.In group A, the renal GFR of the operated-side decreased 12.07(10.91,13.42) ml/min,10.04(9.16,11.75) ml/min, 8.44(7.07,9.72) ml/min,respectively.In group B, the renal GFR of the operated-side decreased 13.64 (12.48,16.72) ml/min,10.29(9.17,14.27)ml/min,9.63(7.85,12.59) ml/min,respectively.The GFR decreased greater in group C than that in group A and B(P<0.05).The total renal GFR decreased (10.70 ± 4.93)ml/min at three months in group C,compared with (5.64 ±4.12)ml/min in group A and (6.37 ± 4.32)ml/min in group B,respectively.The decreased value in group C was greater than that in group A and B(P<0.05).However,the differences of the total renal GFR among the 3 groups were not significant at 1 week and 1 month(P>0.05).The multivariate regression analysis revealed that warm ischemia duration was the independent risk factor of the early renal injury.Conclusions Warm ischemia duration is the major factor regarding the early renal recovery after LPN.Warm ischemia time more than 30 min may not only greatly affect the renal function but also the renal function recovery rate.

Objective Study on the spread and the development history of traditional Chinese medicine in Africa, as well as the present situation and trend, provide reference for better promoting China-Africa cooperation of traditional Chinese medicine. Methods Literature review and historical research methods are used to retrospect the process of traditional Chinese medicine into Africa, and analyze the typical event. Results traditional Chinese medicine was introduced into Africa's history dates back to the period of Zheng He's voyage. In 1963, China sent medical teams to Africa, the TCM comprehensive spread in Africa started. In 2005, China sent the first group of traditional Chinese medicine volunteers to Africa, which a new pattern of TCM spread. Conclusions By sending the medical teams, volunteers, and education training, academic conferences, traditional Chinese medicine was gradually known by the African people. TCM is developing rapidly by the supporting of the government. The opportunity should be seized to promote the comprehensive development of traditional Chinese medicine in Africa.
