Objective To assess whether 5-HTR1A C( - 1019) G and GNβ3 C825T gene polymorphisms are associated with post-stroke depression (PSD) and explore the genetic mechanism of the pathogenesis of post-stroke depression. Methods All 159 patients with first stroke were divided into the PSD group and the control group according to HAMD scores. Their genotypes were determined with polymerase chain reaction and allele-specific restriction enzyme analysis. Results The frequency of 5-HTR1A (-1019) GG genotype(8/53,15. 1% ), G allele (44/106,41.5%)and GNβ3 825T allele(68/106,64. 2% ) were significantly higher in the post-stroke depression group than in the controls (5/106,4.7% ;35/212, 16. 5%; 113/212, 53.3%; ×2 = 23.204, 23. 655, 3. 392, all P ＜ 0. 05 ). Combined genotype analysis showed that individuals with both 5-HTR1A ( - 1019) G and GNβ3 825T allele ( OR =4. 980,95% CI 2. 429-10. 210,P =0. 000) had a higher risk than those with 5-HTR1 A (-1019) G allele ( OR = 3. 589,95% CI 2. 113-6. 096, P = 0. 000) or GNβ3 825T allele ( OR = 0. 638,95% CI 0.395-1. 031 ,P =0. 042) only for post-stroke depression. Conclusion The 5-HTR1A C( - 1019)G and GNβ3 C825T polymorphisms are predisposing genes of post-stroke depression. Our data also suggest a significant interaction between the 5-HTR1A ( - 1019)G allele and GNβ3 825T allele in post-stroke depression.

Good patient care requires accurate and comparable laboratory test results. To achieve standardization, a reference system consisting of a hierarchal framework of validated and reliable analytical methods linked by reference materials must be in place. Supported by national and municipal research programs, construction of reference systems has been pursued and progress been made. Candidate reference methods have been set up or developed for some important tests, and the methods have been used in the calibration or evaluation of routine methods, study of commutability of control materials and characterization of reference materials. Phenomenal roles of reference systems are expected in diagnostic reagent manufacturing, internal quality assurance and external quality assessments.

Roles of reference method in clinical biochemistry were introduced.Reference method is an important component of the reference system.Reference methods are primarily used for the establishment and assurance of the traceability of measurement results through calibrating and evaluating routine methods and assigning values to reference materials.Calibration biases and non-specificities of routine methods and the commutability of reference materials are the major issues in the standardization of clinical biochemistry.Standardization also requires availability of commutable reference materials.Reference methods are irreplaceable tools to identify the issues and to characterize reference materials.
