Objective:To detect the expression levels of neuropilin1 (NRP1)mRNA and miR-9 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)tissue samples, and to explore the correlations between the expressions of NRP1 mRNA, miR-9 and the clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with NSCLC.Methods:Informed consent was obtained from each patient before surgery.The tissue samples including 45 NSCLC tissue ,45 adjacent carcinoma tissue and 45 normal lung tissue were collected from China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from 2010 to 2011.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of NRP1 mRNA and miR-9 in three kinds of lung tissue, and the correlation between the expressions of NRP1 mRNA, miR-9 and clinicopathological characteristics of the patients with NSCLC was analyzed.Results:Compared with normal tissue,the expression level of NRP1 mRNA in adjacent carcinoma tissue had no change (P>0.05),but the expression level of NRP1 mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer tissue was significantly decreased (P<0.05).Compared with normal tissue,the expression level of miR-9 in adjacent carcinoma tissue had no change (P>0.05),but the expression level of miR-9 in non-small cell lung cancer tissue was significantly increased (P < 0.05 ). Furthermore, in adjacent carcinoma tissue, the expression level of miR-9 in the males was lower than that in the females (P<0.05 ). In NSCLC tissue, the expression level of NRP1 mRNA had no relationship with sex,age,differentiation degree,TNM stage and clinical stage,but was significantly correlated to the histological subtype and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05).In NSCLC tissue,the expression level of miR-9 had no relationship with age, pathological type, lymph node metastasis, differentiation degree,TNM stage,and clinical stage (P>0.05),but was correlated to the sex (P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression level of miR-9 is up-regulated and the expression level of NRP1 mRNA is down-regulated significantly in non-small cell lung cancer tissue. The detection of the expression level of NRP1 mRNA contributes to j udge the histological subtype and lymph node metastasis of NSCLC.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the pharmacokinetics of Danshensu with in vivo microdialysis in freely moving rat's jugular vein.
METHODthree days after a microdialysis probe introducer was implanted into the jugular vein, a microdialysis probe was introduced to the blood vessel, and began to sample following a single intravenous injection (40 mg x kg(-1)) or a single oral dose (40 mg x kg(-1)) of Danshensu. All the samples were analyzed with HPLC. The concentration of Danshensu in blood were calculated according to the recovery of microdialysis probe and the concentration in dialysates. Pharmacokinetic parameters were than calculated with the concentration-time curve.
RESULTFor intravenous administration, t(1/2 zeta) = (69.62 +/- 33.42) min, AUC(0-infinity) = (3416.24 +/- 779.80) min x mg x L(-1), MRT(0-infinity) = (38.15 +/- 8.61) min, and for oral administration, Cmax = (7.42 +/- 3.08) mg x L(-1), tmax = (31.50 +/- 8.57) min, t(1/2 zeta) = (83.25 +/- 37.35) min, AUC(0-infinity) = (793.19 +/- 101.32) min x mg x L(-1), MRT(0-infinity) = (125.89 +/- 58.27) min. The oral bioavailability of Danshensu F = 22.56%.
CONCLUSIONIn vivo microdialysis in freely moving rat's jugular vein is a useful tool to obtain a complete set of free drug concentrations to determine reliable pharmacokinetic parameters.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic values of C-TIRADS, ACR-TIRADS and EU-TIRADS.Methods:According to the classification methods of the 3 guidelines, the ultrasonographic features of 283 thyroid nodules from 266 patients in Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital from January 2019 to June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The pathological results were taken as the gold standard, the malignant percentage of different classification was calculated, the ROC curve was plotted, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) and the best diagnostic cut-off value were calculated, and the diagnostic values of the three guidelines were compared. According to the FNA recommendations of the guidelines, the recommended number of thyroid nodules and the detection rate of malignant nodules in different guidelines were analyzed.Results:The AUCs of C-TIRADS, ACR-TIRADS and EU-TIRADS were 0.80, 0.66, 0.61, respectively. The AUC of C-TIRADS was higher than those of ACR-TIRADS and EU-TIRADS ( P<0.001, P<0.001). The best diagnostic cutoff values of C-TIRADS, ACR-TIRADS and EU-TIRADS were 4C, 5 and 5, respectively. Under the critical points, the sensitivities of the 3 guidelines were 95.27%, 98.10%, 99.53%, the specificities were 54.17%, 33.33%, 20.83%, respectively. There was no significant difference in the number of FNA recommendations among the 3 guidelines(all P>0.05), their FNA recommendations were highly consistent (Kappa>0.9). Conclusions:The diagnostic value of C-TIRADS in the classification of benign and malignant thyroid nodules is higher than those of ACR-TIRADS and EU-TIRADS. The best critical value for diagnosis of thyroid nodules is C-TIRADS 4C. The three guidelines are similar in the number of FNA recommendations and the detection rate of malignancy.

The rapid development of point-of-care testing (POCT) in clinical laboratories has brought challenges to the unified management in the hospital. There are many problems, such as how to ensure the ability and qualification of POCT operators, how to improve the quality management awareness of human, machines, materials, methods and environment in the process of POCT in clinical laboratories, how to help the clinical laboratories in the hospital to carry out POCT comparison, and how to strengthen the information construction of POCT in the hospital. Thus, this article reviews the practice and experience of POCT management in our hospital on POCT quality assurance and the problems existing in POCT in clinical departments, proposes suggestions and solutions to strengthen the unified management of POCT in clinical laboratories and establish POCT quality management documents and to improve quality awareness. We hope to provide references for hospital administrators, medical departments, nursing departments, quality control departments and other functional departments on the quality management of POCT in the hospital, and find helpful answers to the puzzles of clinical laboratory in POCT, so as to make joint efforts to standardize the quality management of POCT in the hospital to ensure the accuracy of testing results.
