Objective To investigate the current situation of precision of internal quality control (IQC) in total cholesterol,triglyceride,HDL-cholesterol,and LDL-cholesterol and provide improvement measurements.Methods Web-based External Quality Assessment (EQA) system was used to collect IQCdata of lipid tests from 581 EQA participant laboratories nationwide.The data include the coefficient of variation (CVs) of IQC data under control in April 201 1 and long-term cumulative data.Excel 2007 was applied for data processing after excluding the invalid data.Acceptable rates of CVs of two-lot internal quality controls in 4 lipid testing were calculated according to 6 criteria,that were 1/4TEa,1/3TEa,allowable imprecision of National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) and the specifications based on biological variation including the optimal,appropriate and minimal allowable imprecision.Results Four hundred and thirty-five,434,405 and 360 laboratories reported the data of level 1 IQC for total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),HDL-C,LDL-C respectively,while 214,214,192 and 171 reported the data of level 2 IQC respectively.Acceptable rates of TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C based on NECP criteria were 69.2％ (304/435),85.3％ (370/434),61.3％ (48/405) and 69.0％ (248/360) for level 1 respectively while 81.3％(174/214),91.6％ (196/214),75.5％ (145/192) and 81.3％ (139/171) for level 2 respectively.In the group which met the NECP criteria,the proportion of using matching detection system was much higher than the group which did not meet the criteria.Conclusions It is an effective way for clinical laboratories to improve test quality by monitoring the current and cumulative CVs of internal quality control and comparing them against proper evaluation criteria to evaluate if the analysis system can meet quality requirements.

Objective To analyze the pitfalls of 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET-CT) scan in the diagnosis of 60 patients of tuberculosis mimicking malignancy.Methods The study included 60 patients with PET-CT diagnosis of probable malignancy.Fifty patients were proved to be tuberculosis by pathological examinations and 10 were diagnosed by clinical followup.The images of whole body were acquired at 60 min after administration of 222-555 MBq 18F-FDG.The PET-CT imaging characteristics and clinical data,including lesion size,distribution,standardized uptake value (SUV) were retrospectively analyzed.After the whole body scan of PET-CT,each patient had a chest spiral CT scan for detailed observation of lung lesions.Contrast enhanced CT (CECT) was performed in 8 patients.Results (1)Thirty patients were misdiagnosed as lung cancer,14 patients as malignant lymphoma,6 patients as malignant mesothelioma,3 as intestine carcinoma,2 as bone malignancy,1 patient as hepatocarcinoma,spleen malignancy,ovarian cancer,laryngocarcinoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma respectively.(2) 90.9％ (20/22) of patients showed normal level of serum CEA and 100％ (13/13) of patients showed normal level of CA199.Increasing serum CA125 was found in all patients (6/6) with activeTB patients accompanied with ascites,pleural fluid and (or) pericardial effusion.(3) 93.3％ (28/30)active tuberculosis showed accumulated 18F-FDG which was incorrectly interpreted as malignancy.The most common sites of TB lymphadenopathy were bilateral cervical tissues,which was accounted for 85.7％(12/14).CECT revealed characteristics of peripheral enhancement and central necrosis in tubercular lymphadenopathy,which was 87.5％ (7/8).Conclusions The diverse manifestations of TB on imaging and high uptake of 18F-FDG on PET imaging result in misdiagnosis of malignancy.It is important for radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians to identify the common imaging features and patterns of TB to make a correct diagnosis.Integration of reconstruction HR CT,PET-CT and lab examinations may improve the diagnostic accuracy.

Objective:To analyze the clinical effect of different surgical methods on giant-cell tumor of bone (GCTB). Methods:Between January 2007 and June 2012, 37 patients receiving treatment for GCTB were enrolled in this study. These patients included 20 males and 17 females whose ages ranged from 20 to 56 (average=31.6). The prosthesis replacement and nonprosthetic replacement op-eration on the postoperative recurrence, limb function, comprehensive evaluation of the curative effect, as well as morbidity and recur-rence rate among different nations and in the upper and lower limbs of GCTB patients were analyzed. Results:The predilection age of the cases ranged from 20 to 50 years old. The incidence was higher in the Uighur population of Xinjiang, China. However, the recur-rence rate in ethnic difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion:The predilection age of GCTB cases was 20~50 years old, with higher morbidity in Uighur than in Han and other ethnic groups. The morbidity and recurrence rate were higher in the lower limbs than in the upper limbs of patients. The scraping bone graft and bone cement filling, the internal fixation of the scraping bone graft, and the artificial joint replacement of tumor resection were all reliable modes of treatment.

A management window model for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) was established in Tilanqiao Community Health Service Center cooperated with tertiary hospitals.Patients were screened and treated in the community health service center,and a comprehensive management plan was conducted and patients were followed-up.A total of 105 patients with atrial fibrillation (97.2％) were effectively managed with an average follow-up of 10.6 months.The CHADS2 score ≥ 2 in 78 cases,including 11 cases with administration of warfarin (14.1％) and 26 cases with paroxysmal AF without transition to persistent atrial fibrillation.Compared to the data before management,the rate of taking aspirin and warfarin in managed patients was increased (all P ＜ 0.05),the international normalized ratio (INR) of patients receiving warfarin was improved (P ＜ 0.05) ; the ratio of receiving comprehensive treatment program,standardized treatment and health education were significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05) ; the awareness of the disease,treatment compliance and satisfaction of patients were improved significantly (all P ＜ 0.05).The results suggest that the management widow model is feasible and effective for management of patients with atrial fibrillation in community health service centers.

BACKGROUND:In mass spectrometry analysis, the same protein in different samples labeled with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation presents the same mass-to-charge ratio, while in the tandem mass spectrometry analysis, the ion signal shows different mass-to-charge ratio (114-121). Thus the quantitative information of the related proteins can be obtained.
