Objective To establish the reference interval for serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in apparent healthy men of different ages in Nanjing.Methods A total of 25 820 healthy men undergoing routine physical examinations in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from October 2013 to September 2015 were selected for the study.All of them were screened by prostate B ultrasound,excluding abnormal urinary tract diseases.The concentration of serum PSA and free prostate-specific antigen (fPSA) were measured by automatic luminescence immunoassay analyzer,and the fPSA/PSA values were calculated.The participants were divided into four groups (20～ 39,40～ 59,60～ 79 and older than 80 years old groups),then the median,5th,25th,75th and 95th percentiles of both PSA and fPSA/PSA were counted,respectively.Results The median of PSA (95th percentile ranges) of these groups by age from low to high were 0.78 (1.93),0.90 (2.93),1.34(6.60) and 2.01(11.91),respectively.The 25th to 75th percentiles were 0.55～1.11,0.61～1.36,0.77～2.51 and 0.94 ～ 4.19,respectively.The median of fPSA/PSA (95 th percentile ranges) were 0.37 (0.60),0.31 (0.56),0.28 (0.53) and 0.29(0.52),respectively.The 25th to 75th percentiles were 0.28～0.46,0.23～0.40,0.22～0.36 and 0.23～ 0.37,respectively.Among all the groups,median differences of both PSA and fPSA/PSA were statistically significant (P＜0.05),and PSA levels rise with age.PSA levels in different regions were different.Conclusion The PSA level of men under 40 years in Nanjing should be 0～2.5 ng/ml,40～60 years should be 0～4 ng/ml,while men who are above 60 years,could use 0～5 ng/ml as reference interval.

Objective To analyze the results of detection of infectious indicators of patients from the first affiliated hospital of Nanjing Medical University in recent 5 years ,and to provide a scientific basis for the control and prevention of infectious diseases . Methods The patients with clinical data from January 2010 to April 2014 were retrospectively analyzed ,then the infectious indica‐tors of all the subjects were detected and analyzed .Results HIV positive rate was between 0 .043% to 0 .061% ,positive rate of HCV was between 1 .07 to 1 .41% ,positive rate of TP was between 2 .01% to 2 .17% .HBsAg positive rate in 2010 was 8 .36% ,the positive rate was 7 .81% in 2014 .HBsAb positive rate in 2010 was 35 .36% ,positive rate was 50 .96% in 2014 .Conclusion Effec‐tively cut off the route of transmission could prevent the further spread of infectious disease .

Objective To compare the application values and setup errors between vacuum bag plus body mask and customized alpha cradle duringproton and carbon therapy using Siemens 6D robotic couch in prostate cancer patients.Methods Nineteen patients received vacuum bag plus body mask setup were allocated into the vacuum bag group andl9 patients with alpha cradle were assigned into the alpha cradle group.Orthogonal X-ray portals were performed to verify the treatment position before beam delivery in every fraction.The couch correction between the portal and reference DRR through manual image registration was recorded as setup errors in 6 directions including the lateral,supine-inferior,anterior-posterior,yaws,roll and pitch,respectively.Two-tail t-test was used to analyze the setup error data from each direction between two groups.Results In total,452 and 436 sets of data errors were collected from the vacuum bag and alpha cradle groups.The average setup errors and standard deviation in the vacuum bag and alpha cradle groups in the lateral,supine-inferior,anterior-posterior,yaws,roll and pitch directions were (0.63±0.48) cm vs.(0.33±0.24) cm (P=0.000),(0.40±0.3) cm vs.(0.31±0.25) cm (P=0.000),(0.69±0.61) cm vs.(0.82±0.69) cm (P=0.006),0.65°±0.47°vs 0.32°±0.25°(P=0.000),1.05°±0.95°vs 1.16°±0.94° (P=0.100) and 0.67°±0.56°vs 0.40°±0.36° (P=0.000),respectively.The maximum setup errors were detected in the pitch direction for both groups.Conclusions During the proton and carbon therapy using Siemens 6D robotic couch,two setup methods using vacuum bag plus body mask and customized alpha cradle should be selected according to the individual conditions of patients.A customized foot fixer should be utilized to reduce the uncertainty in the femoral head region.
