Objective To establish the entirely automatic method of nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT) for blood screening and to study the feasibility of NAT.Methods Using entirely automated extraction method to extract nucleic acid , amplified and detected by Roche COBAS AMPLICOR system,evaluating the sensitivity and efficacy.Results The 95% limits of HBV DNA, HCV RNA/HIV-1 RNA tests by automation system were 38.9,16.4IU/ml and 20.4 copies/ml,95% Confidence Intervals were [21,323], [10.5,342] and [12,300] respectively.8 of 16 512 donations were PCR for HBV DNA positive,the DNA positive rate was 0.048%.7/8 donations were Anti-HBc positive,The last one was also converted positive.No positive HCV RNA and HIV RNA was detected. 3/6 following up samples seroconverted.Conclusions The entirely automatic system can be applied in blood screening.

Objective To observe the value of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics based on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)for predicting histological grade of breast cancer.Methods Preoperative DWI data of 700 patients with single breast cancer diagnosed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into training set(n= 560,including 381 of grade Ⅰ+Ⅱ and 179 of grade Ⅲ)and test set(n=140,including 95 of grade Ⅰ+Ⅱ and 45 of grade Ⅲ)at the ratio of 8∶2.Intratumoral ROI(ROIintra)was manually delineated on DWI,which was automatically expanded by 3 mm and 5 mm to decline peritumoral ROI(ROIperi,including ROI3 mm and ROI5 mm),then intratumoral-peritumoral ROI(ROIintra+3 mm,ROIintra+5 mm)were obtained.The optimal radiomics features were extracted and screened,and the radiomics model(RM)for predicting the histological grade of breast cancer were constructed.Receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn,and the areas under the curve(AUC)were calculated to evaluate the predictive efficacy of each model.Calibration curve method was used to evaluate the calibration degree,while decision curve analysis(DCA)was performed to explore the clinical practicability of each model.Results AUC of RMintra,RM+3 mm,RM+5mm,RMintra+3 mm and RMintra+5 mm was 0.750,0.724,0.749,0.833 and 0.807 in training set,while was 0.723,0.718,0.736,0.759 and 0.782 in test set,respectively.In training set,significant differences of AUC was found(all P<0.01),while in test set,no significant difference of AUC was found among models(all P>0.05).The calibrations of models were all high.DCA showed that taken 0.02-0.88 as the threshold,the clinical net benefit of RMintra+per were greater in training set,while taken 0.40-0.72 as the threshold,the clinical net benefit of RMintra+per was greater in test set.Conclusion Both DWI intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics could effectively predict histological grade of breast cancer.Combination of intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics was more effective.
