1.Monitoring and improving the quality of the extra-analytical phase is the challenge for laboratory medicine
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2015;38(11):786-788
International Standard for Medical Laboratories Accreditation demanded monitoring the quality of the total testing process (TFP).Recently, the errors in the analysis phase had been effectively controlled, while the errors in pre-and post-analytical phases still remained comparably high, and became the major factors influencing the TTP quality.Thus, monitoring and improving the quality of the extraanalytical phases became the major challenge.Monitoring the TTP quality required the laboratory staff to extend the quality management to the influential elements outside the laboratory.In addition, it also prompted the organizers of external quality assessment (EQA) in China to provide a quality assurance program for extra-analytical phases.The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) had developed a model of quality indicators.The Q-Probes and Q-Tracks programs of the College of American Pathologists provided a good practice of monitoring and improving quality for the extraanalytical phases.Based on the related international guidelines, the QIs system was established for quality management and control in clinical laboratory, so as to manage EQA of extra-analytical phases.
2.Immune effects of a precocious line of Eimeria necatrix with different doses and at different immunization times
Tropical Biomedicine 2016;33(3):570-576
This study was designed to assess the immune protective effects of the vaccine
strain of a precocious line of Eimeria necatrix with different doses and at different
immunization times. The immunizations had a negative effect on weight gains of chickens to
a certain degree but could be compensated during the “compensatory growth period” after
immunity was established in the chickens. The number of oocysts excreted was positively
correlated with the immunization dose. All the immunized chickens, whether they were
immunized once or twice or immunized with different doses of sporulated oocysts, were able
to resist attack from 1x105 virulent sporulated oocysts of E. necatrix. The lesion scoring
showed that no significant difference existed in the chicken groups immunized with different
doses (300 and 600) of sporulated oocysts. However, a difference existed in the immune
homogeneity established in the different immunized groups, and two artificial immunizations
were superior to one artificial immunization, indicating that two could extend the duration of
oocyst excretion and allow more chances for the immunized chickens to become repeatedly
infected.
3.Protective effects of 9-(4-ethoxycarboxylyphenoxy)-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4- tetrahydro acridine on anoxia and ischemic injury in cultured PC12 cells
Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics 1999;0(04):-
Aim To investigate the effects of EDT on anoxia and ischemic injury in cultured PC12 cells. Methods Cultured PC12 cells were treated with 1 mmol?L -1 Na 2S 2O 4 and 20 mmol?L -1 NaCN in combination with glucose deprivation. The protective effects of EDT on these two models were evaluated by lactate dehydrogenate (LDH) efflux assay and colormetric MTT assay.ResultsEDT, within the range of 10 -8~ 10 -6 mol?L -1, significantly antagonized LDH efflux induced by two models and increased the optical density at 570 nm tested by colorimetric MTT assay in concentration-dependent manner. 10 -6 mol?L -1 EDT might time-dependently inhibit two injuries and reach maximal level at 48 h. Conclusion EDT can protect PC12 cells from anoxia and ischemic injury.

Hearing loss caused by cochlear damage is the main symptom of sudden deafness (SD). Some patients also suffer from vestibular symptoms. In recent years, more attention has been paid to the vestibular dysfunction in patients with SD. The lesions could involve the whole inner ear in SD patients with and without vertigo. Comprehensive evaluation of vestibular function may help us understand the extent of lesions in sudden deafness and analyze the pathogenesis of disease. A less involvement of inner ear lesion may indicate a better hearing recovery.

ObjectiveTo analyze the relative influential factors of hearing rehabilitation of the deafened children with multichannel cochlear implant. Methods42 prelingually deafened children who accepted multichannel cochlear implant were evaluated with their hearing ability, hearing thresholds and talent level, while their family and usage of the multichannel cochlear were investigated. Results and ConclusionThe result shows that the factors influencing the hearing rehabilitation are the occupations of the parents, income of the family, the time between diagnosing deaf and the operation, the time after the cochlear implant operation and the talent level. The results of the logistic regression show that the deafened children can gain their hearing developing rapidly if they living in a family with high income, their mothers have accepted more education, and they accepted longer time of continuing hearing-aid, etc.

Aim To investigate the mechanism of dia-betes changing the hepatic CYP1 A2 through in vitro cell culture study.Methods The function of CYP1 A2 in HepG2 and Fa2N-4 cells were evaluated by determi-ning the level of phenacetin metabolism,and the mR-NA expression of CYP1 A2 in cells was detected by real time PCR.HepG2 cells were co-cultured with serum of diabetic rats(type 1 and type 2)and normal rats,then the CYP1 A2 function in cells were evaluated.Then, the HepG2 and Fa2N-4 cells were co-cultured with a series of concentrations of saturated (including palmitic acid and stearic acid)and unsaturated fatty acids(in-cluding oleic acid and linoleic acid)for 48 h,and the function and expression of CYP1 A2 in the cells were compared.Results It was found that the activities of CYP1 A2 were higher in cells incubated with diabetic serum of both type.All high concentration of fatty acids could increase the function and expression of CYP1 A2 in both HepG2 and Fa2N-4 cells.Conclusion It is speculated that the abnormal level of fatty acids under diabetic state might be part of the reasons why diabetes change the hepatic CYP1 A2,which provides the basis for future study.

The development of proteomic technique has sparked new focus on novel protein markers for many diseases including cancer. Urine is one of the most useful biofluids for routine testing to provide an ideal resource for the discovery of novel biomarkers, with the advantage over tissue biopsy samples due to the ease and the less invasive nature of urinary collection. This review summarizes urinary protein tumor markers found in prostate cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer that have shown potential for urogenital and non-urogenital cancer, so as to provide reference on high sensitive and high specific urinary protein tumor markers for early prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
