Objective To prepare and evaluate the reference materials for plasma von Willebrand Factor antigen testing with fresh frozen plasma.Methods The candidates were prepared by low temperature centrifugation in 5 different concentration levels.The homogeneity and stability of the preparation was evaluated according to the ISO Guide35 and CNAS-GL03.The comparability between STAGO and IL system was evaluated according to the WS/T 356-2011.Then the preparations were characterized by six laboratories with the Secondary Coagulation Standard established by NIBSC(SSCLOT4).Results Homogeneity evaluation of the preparation showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (P >0.05),the F values of factor analysis of variance were 0.317~0.844,the uncertainty range was 1.01% ~2.06%.A linear regression based on stability evaluation indicated that the linear trend (within 24 weeks)was insignificant (P >0.05). The uncertainty range of long-term (within 24 weeks)stability was 0.79% ~ 1.20%.The results of the preparations on STAGO and IL system were comparable.The certificated values of the candidates were range from 12.2% to 138.9% with uncertainties were 0.06%~0.09%,respectively.The range of combined standard uncertainty was 0.03% ~ 0.16% while the expanded uncertainty was 2.2%~6.7%.Conclusion The reference materials for von Willebrand Factor antigen testing were stable and homogenous with comparability between STAGO and IL.The method of characterization was accurate and reliable.

The interaction between the anti-Ractopamine (Rac) monoclonal antibody and the Rac derivation immobilized on the sensor chip surface was studied with surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor. A continuous detection method based on the linear response during the association phase was developed. The sensor chip surface was regenerated after several tests performed continuously, thus the detection step was simplified and the life span of the chip was prospected to be prolonged. The detection was performed as an inhibitive immunoassay. The mixture of anti-Rac monoclonal antibody and the sample flowed over the surface with Rac derivation was immobilized. The relative response was in inversely proportion to the concentration of Rac. The detection limit was less than 4 μg/L with a detection time of 15 min.

Objective:To investigate the teaching activity based on an online radiological teaching case library that integrates various teaching models including problem-based learning (PBL), case-based learning (CBL), flipped classroom, and microclass, as well as its application effect in standardized residency training in department of radiology.Methods:A total of 65 physicians who completed standardized residency training in Department of Radiology, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, from 2016 to 2022 were enrolled as subjects and were divided into control group with 32 physicians and experimental group with 33 physicians. The physicians in the control group received traditional teaching, and those in the experimental group received blended teaching with PBL, CBL, flipped classroom, and microclass based on a teaching case library. The two groups were compared in terms of the test scores of clinical thinking and decision making at the end of the course and their assessment and feedback for the teaching method. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:For the assessment of clinical thinking and decision making, compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly higher score of objective essay questions (49.83±1.27 vs. 48.74±1.64, P<0.05), score of subjective essay questions (39.57±1.75 vs. 36.02±1.81, P<0.05), and total score (89.40±1.54 vs. 84.76±1.93, P<0.05). The experimental group had significantly better assessment and feedback for the teaching method than the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:For physicians participating in standardized residency training, the blended teaching model based on teaching case library that integrates PBL, CBL, flipped classroom, and microclass can effectively improve the test scores of clinical thinking and decision making, stimulate their learning initiative and participation enthusiasm in medical imaging, and enhance their comprehensive ability for clinical diagnosis.

Eclipta prostrata L.has been used in traditional medicine and known for its liver-protective properties for centuries.Wedelolactone(WEL)and demethylwedelolactone(DWEL)are the major coumarins found in E.prostrata L.However,the comprehensive characterization of these two compounds on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)still remains to be explored.Utilizing a well-established zebrafish model of thioacetamide(TAA)-induced liver injury,the present study sought to investigate the impacts and mechanisms of WEL and DWEL on NAFLD through integrative spatial metabolomics with liver-specific transcriptomics analysis.Our results showed that WEL and DWEL significantly improved liver function and reduced the accumulation of fat in the liver.The biodistributions and metabolism of these two compounds in whole-body zebrafish were successfully mapped,and the discriminatory endogenous metabolites reversely regulated by WEL and DWEL treatments were also characterized.Based on spatial metabolomics and transcriptomics,we identified that steroid biosynthesis and fatty acid metabolism are mainly involved in the hepatoprotective effects of WEL instead of DWEL.Our study unveils the distinct mechanism of WEL and DWEL in ameliorating NAFLD,and presents a"multi-omics"platform of spatial metabolomics and liver-specific transcriptomics to develop highly effective compounds for further improved therapy.
