Objective To analyze the vitamin D status among apparently healthy younger and elder adults in Beijing based on liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.Methods This is an observational study.Participants included 287 apparently healthy young adults(143 males and 144 females) with an average of (32.2 ± 6.9) years old (19-44 years).At the same time 198 middle-and elder-aged adults were recruited [90 males,108 females,(55.6 ± 7.6) years],and fasting blood samples were collected and serum were isolated.They measured 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD:25OHD2 and 25OHD3)using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method.Vitamin D with deficiency,insufficiency,sufficiency and intoxication was categorized as 25OHD ＜ 20 ng/ml,20-30 ng/ml,30-150 ng/ml,and ≥ 150 ng/ml,respectively.ALT,Ca,P,Cr,Glu,TG,TC and iPTH wereanalyzed using automatic analyzers.Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS17.0.Results The median 25OHD level in the total studied younger adults was 16.0 [2.5％-97.5％:(6.1-29.0) ng/ml] which didn't show significant difference with that of middle-and elder-aged adults.Younger males had significant higher level of 25OHD than females [17.9 (8.3-32.3) ng/ml vs.14.4 (5.4-26.4) ng/ml,Z =-4.238,P ＜ 0.01].Of the total younger subjects,the rate of vitamin D with deficiency (＜ 20 ng/ml),insufficiency (20-30 ng/ml)and sufficiency (≥30 ng/ml) was 72.8％,25.1％,2.1％,respectively,while that of middle-and elderaged adults was 76.3％,21.2％,2.5％ respectively,and that of younger males was 65.0％,30.8％,4.2％,respectively while that of younger females was 80.6％,19.4％,0％,respectively.Younger females had significantly higher rate of 25OHD deficiency (x2 =31.766,P ＜ 0.01).With adjusting sex,age and BMI,serum iPTH (r =-0.264,P ＜ 0.01) was significantly negatively correlated with 25OHD while Cr (r =0.221,P ＜ 0.01) showed significantly positively correlation with 25OHD.Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency is prevalent in both younger and elder adults in Beijing,especially in younger females.

Objective To investigate the changes of prevalence of hyperuricemia ( HUA) and its correlations with blood glucose and lipid in healthy adults receiving physical examination at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) from 2012 to 2017. Meth-ods An observational approach was adopted for the data analysis.The test results of uric acid (UA),fasting blood glucose (FBG),to-tal cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), creatinine (Cr) and Urea of 399 089 cases (206 881 males and 192 208 females) at PUMCH from January 2012 to December 2017 were collected and statistically analyzed.Results The total prevalence of HUA was 17.4% in which the prevalence of males was signif-icantly higher than that of females (25.6% vs 8.5%,χ2＝20 234.850,P＜0.01).During the years of 2012 to 2017,the prevalence of HUA was 26.5%,24.7%,28.6%,23.9%,24.8% and 24.5% in males,and 13.8%,6.3%,7.9%,6.1%,6.2% and 6.8% in females for each year respectively.The prevalence of HUA in males aged 18 to 64 years old was significantly higher than that in the age-matched fe-males (all P＜0.05).However, the prevalence of HUA in males aged≥65 years old was similar to the age-matched females.There was no statistically significant difference of HUA prevalence between males and females aged ≥65 in 2013,2015,2016 and 2017 ( χ2＝1.792,0.017,1.440 and 0.205 respectively;all P＞0.05).The percentages of hyperlipidemia in both males and females of HUA group were higher than those of non-HUA group respectively (all P＜0.01).The percentage of hyperglycemia in males of non-HUA group was higher than that of HUA group,but the percentage of hyperglycemia in females of non-HUA group was lower than that of HUA group ( all P＜0.01).High levels of TC,TG and FBG were risk factors of HUA with increased OR values in increased concentrations of TC,TG and FBG,respectively.Conclusion During the recent 6 years, in healthy adults receiving physiced examination at PVMCH, the preva-lence of male HUA diagnosed was at overall high level,but the prevalence of female HUA was in decreasing and relatively stable trend. Hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia should be the risk factors of HUA.

Objective:To compare the differences of reference intervals (RI) established by two types of indirect methods for 34 biochemical analytes, and to explore the possible factors that affect the consistency of the two methods.Methods:This was a retrospective study. Based on data of albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), apolipoprotein A1(ApoA1), ApolipoproteinB (ApoB), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), calcium (Ca), cholinesterase (ChE), chloride (Cl), creatinine (Cr), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), Cystatin (CysC), direct bilirubin (DBil), free fatty acid (FFA), glycated albumin(GA), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), glucose (Glu), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), potassium (K), lactate dehydrogenase (LD), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), lipoprotein a [Lp (a)], sodium (Na), phosphorus (P), prealbumin (PA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total bile acid (TBA), total bilirubin (TBil), total cholesterol (TC), total carbon dioxide (TCO 2), triglyceride (TG), total protein (TP), uric acid (UA) and urea (UR) of individuals who underwent physical examination at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2019, Box-Cox algorithm was used to improve the data distribution and Tukey method was used to identify outliers. Variance component model was established, and standard deviation ratio (SDR) was calculated to determine whether the RIs of 34 biochemical analytes should be established according to age or sex The non-parametric method and kosmic algorithm were used to establish the RIs and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of 34 biochemical analytes, and the coincidence of the 90% CIs of the reference limits for two methods was compared. Results:The skewness coefficients of ALP(male, female18-59), ALT, AST, hsCRP, DBil, GGT, Lp (a), TBA, TBil, TG, Glu, HDL-C(male) and CysC, GA, UR in the elderly group deviated from 0, and their kurtosis coefficients also deviated from 3. For these biochemical analytes, the point estimates of the RIs established by the two methods differed greatly and the 90% CIs did not overlap. The analytes with good normality were Alb, ApoA1, ApoB, Ca, ChE, Cl, Cr(E), CysC(18-59), FFA, GA(18-59), HDL-C(female), K, LDL-C, Na, P, PA, SOD, TC, TCO 2, TP and UR. The consistency is good. Except for Ca, 90% CIs of reference limits for some analyte between the two methods coincide with each other. Conclusions:The consistency of different indirect methods is affected by the normality of data.

Objective:To assess the applicability of fully automatic pipeline automated testing for internal quality control (automated quality control).Methods:Stability, assay efficiency and implementation costs of 18 biochemical tests, 5 immunoturbidimetric tests and 11 chemical illuminescent tests in the Department of Laboratory Medicine of Peking Union Hospital from January 2019 to July 2022 were evaluated using automated quality control implementation methods. The detailed method is as follows: quality control materials for biochemical, immunoturbidimetric and chemiluminescent tests were stored in the refrigerator in the pipeline which was controlled by the intermediate software, and were automatically retrieved and tested as pre-set followed by documenting and storing. The quality control setup for the biochemical tests included refreshing quality control materials daily and weekly,both of which were paralleled for 3 months. The on-line storage stability of quality control materials in the pipeline was evaluated by comparing the coefficients of variation ( CV) of the quality control results between the two patterns. Effect of automated quality control application was evaluated using 6 indicators, including the results′ variation of automatically performed and manually performed quality controls, the out-of-controlled rate, the consumption of quality control materials, the change of staff workload, the impact on the testing time of the first sample, and the failure rate of automated quality control. Results:(1) Storage stability of quality control materials in the pipeline: under the pattern of weekly refresh of the biochemical quality control materials, except for total carbon dioxide (TCO 2) (the CVs of low and high level quality control were respectively 20.24% and 21.82%) and sodium (the CV of low level quality control was 1.51%) that were greater than the allowable variation set by the laboratory, the CVs of the rest tests meet the lab requirements on the allowable variations. (2) The results′ variation of quality control in automatically performed and manually performed control patterns: in the patterns of daily refresh of biochemical quality control materials and weekly refresh of immunoturbidimetric and chemiluminescent quality control materials, the CVs of both low and high levels of quality control were lower in the automatically performed control pattern than that in manually performed pattern for 8 chemiluminescent items of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, estradiol, follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, serum ferritin, serum folic acid, vitamin B12 and testosterone, 3 immunologic items of complement 3, C reactive protein and immunoglobulin G, and 10 biochemical items of alkaline phosphatase, glucose, calcium, chloride, potassium, lactate dehydrogenase, sodium, urea, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and adenosine deaminase. The out-of-control rates of biochemistry, immunoturbidimetric and chemiluminescence tests in both quality control patterns conformed with the clinical routine work requirements. (3) Comparison of quality control materials′ consumption: compared with manually performed quality control, weekly consumption of automatically performed chemiluminescent quality control materials decreased 37.5% (from 8 ml to 5 ml); weekly consumption of automatically performed immunoturbidimetric quality control materials decreased 33.3% (from 3 ml to 2 ml). (4)Comparison of staff workload and first sample testing time: compared with manually performed quality control, automatical quality control reduced manual work by about 156 steps per week, and the daily initial testing time was earlier by 15 min on average. The failure rate was 54.5% (37/64) during the early-stage application of the automated quality control which dropped to 10.2% (13/128) in the late-stage. Conclusion:The results of automated quality control detected in the pipeline system meet the quality indicators′ requirements of the laboratory, and the application of automated quality control can improve the quality control, save costs, reduce workload, and improve work efficiency.

Objective To evaluate hemolyticinfluence on 41 chemistry and immunology tests and define the hemolysis alert index, which can be used as evidence for sample rejection and test report verification.Methods Method evaluation.As a pair, both hemolyzed and non-hemolyzed serum samples were collected from the same patient at the same time.Hemolysis index and 41 tests were analyzed.The effect of hemolysis in different hemolysis level was evaluated by comparing results of the paired samples.The alertindex were defined by senior laboratory techniciansand clinical professionals based on discussion of widely accepted quality requirements.Results The number of sample with hemolysis index of 1,2,3 and 4was 24, 17, 7 and 4 respectively.Of the 41 analytes, 6 analytes increased in hemolyzed samples comparing to non-hemolyzed samples, namelyaspartate aminotransferase(AST), creatine kinase(CK), potassium(K),lactate dehydrogenase(LD),inorganic phosphorus(iP)and total bilirubin(TBil).Another 9 analytesdecreased in hemolyzed samples comparing to non-hemolyzed samples.These analytes are alkaline phosphatase(ALP), chloride(Cl), creatinine(Cr), immunoglobin M(IgM), sodium(Na), prealbumin (PA),rheumatoid factor(RF),triglyceride(TG),uric acid(UA).Hemolysis alert index was defined as 1 for AST,K,Na and LD;2 for Cr;3 for CK,iP,PA and TBil; and 4 for the other 32 tests.Conclusions Hemolysisalertindex were defined based on the investigation of hemolyticinfluence on 41 chemistry and immunology tests in ourlaboratory.However, hemolytic influence on clinical laboratory tests are closely related to the assay systems.So clinical laboratory should evaluate the hemolytic influence on its own analysis system,and define assay specific hemolysis alert index.
