In the article we described a case of 61-year-old male with pharyngeal paraesthesia for 3 months. Physical examination: lean physique; vast uneven white membrane above hard palate, soft palate and pharynx mucous membrane, not easy to wipe and extend to the throat. The neck without cervical lymph node enlargement. Blood routine test: WBC 4.92 x 10(9)/L, N 64.3%, L 18.7%, EO 7.1%. RBC 4.08 x 10(12)/L, PLT 181 x 10(9)/L. No significant abnormal in the other blood biochemical indexes, tumor marker and immune indexes; blood bacteria culture: negative; blood culture: negative; sputum culture (3 times): all negative; anti-HIV screening test: positive, serum HIV testing: positive(the test done by Shanghai Pudong new area's centers for disease control and detection). The incidence of HIV/AIDS is still low at present, so the diagnosis of HIV/AIDS can be ignored easily by the otolaryngology doctor. If the patient with oral cavity and pharyngeal ulcer delayed healing, the doctor should be alert to,HIV/AIDS infection. We should check serum HIV antibody to eliminate or confirm HIV/AIDS earlier.

Objective:This study investigated the positive detection rate of cytoplasm thymidine kinase 1 (TK1) in lung cancer patients and the relationship of TK1 with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Methods:Sensitive chemiluminescence dot-blot assay was used to detect serum TK1 levels in 73 lung cancer patients and 56 normal control subjects. Results:The positive detection rate of TK1 was elevated in the lung cancer patients compared with the controls (P=0.006). The positive detection rate of TK1 was also correlated with distant metastases, but not with other factors, such as smoking, sex, lymph node metastasis, and pathology types. The 2 year survival of the patients with negative TK1 detection was significantly longer than that of the patients positively detected with the marker (P<0.001). Conclusion:Serum TK1, a new tumor marker, has potential applications in the diagnosis and prognosis of lung cancer.

Objective:To investigate the values of immunophenotype and the Collagen type1 alpha1/Proto-oncogene Proteins c-sis (COL1A1/PDGFB) fusion gene in the diagnosis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP). Methods:IHC markers and the COL1A1/PDGFB fusion gene were detected by IHC staining and interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in 73 cases previously diagnosed as DFSP. A total of 85 and 10 non-DFSP cases were also included as controls for IHC staining and FISH, respectively. Results:In the 73 DFSP cases, the positive detection rates for immunohistochemical marker vimentin, CD34, CD99, S100, desmin and SMA were 100%, 91.78%, 61.64%, 0, 0, and 6.85%, correspondingly. Protein expression levels in these cases varied from the control group, and CD34 ex-pression was significantly different among the differential diagnoses. The positive detection rate for the COL1A1/PDGFB fusion gene was 86.96%(60/69), whereas the gene expression in the control group was negative. Conclusion:The COL1A1/PDGFB fusion gene is a highly specific and sensitive marker in the diagnosis of DFSP. CD34 is a suitable marker for DFSP.

This article briefly summarized the meaning, category and function of qi, tubes and viscera in human body respectively after combining exploring the theories of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and clinical practices. Afterward, we put forward the theory of Qi-Tube-Viscera and elaborated its close relationship with the physiological status of the human, and then we thought the relationships of qi, tube and viscera respectively, at last we draw a conclusion that qi, tube and viscera only came from qi. And the clinical guiding significance of the theory of Qi-Tube-Viscera and itsBalanced steady state, Nature and Man in One, State medicine were narrated to demonstrate that new theory of Qi-Tube-Viscera has high signifance in the theory of TCM and clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the appropriate setting up of normal reference ranges of lymphocyte subsets in some flow cytometry laboratories and to study the effects of different flow cytometers and various reagents by different manufacturers on the analysis of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets. Methods Three FCM labs (named A, B and C) in Beijing region were selected representing 3 commonly used flow cytometers (Beckman Coulter Epics XL, Beckman Coulter Cytomics FC500, BD FACS Calibur). 50 samples from healthy donors were distributed to 3 labs and tested according to individual lab's standard operating procedure to verify whether the normal reference ranges of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets established were appropriate. The application of internal quality control was also investigated. Commercial blood quality control reagents were given to the 3 FCM labs and tested within 20 working days paralleled with routine samples. In addition, 20 patients' samples were prepared using 4 different combinations of reagents ( a , b , c and d). The results from combination a, which used the Beckman Coulter reagents and instrument, were compared to the results from combination b, c and d, which used reagents from different manufacturers. Then the prepared samples were tested on Beckman Coulter Epics XL to evaluate the effects of different combinations of reagents on the results of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets analyzed by the same instrument. Furthermore, 24 patients' samples prepared by same reagents from Beckman Coulter company were tested on both Beckman Coulter Epics XL and BD FACS Calibur respectively to assess the effects of different instruments on peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets. 20 patients' samples prepared by same reagents and instruments were analyzed by Beckman Coulter Epics XL analytic system and BD FACS Calibur analytic system respectively to assess the effects of the two analytic systems on the lymphocyte subsets. Results Over 10% of the results for NK and T4/T8 in lab A as well as T4 in labs B and C fell outside of their normal reference ranges. The probabilities exceeding corresponding normal reference ranges were 16% ( 9/50 ), 24% ( 12/50 ), 22% (11/50) and 12% ( 6/50 ), respectively. The results using internal blood quality control in 3 FCM labs within 20 working days were all within the reference ranges of the quality control provided by the kit. The biases from b and c reagent combinations were substantial compared with that of reagent a combination. Among the biases from b and c reagent combinations, the lowest probability of bias exceeding 10% was T8 of combination b, which had probability of 70% (14/20). The highest probabilities of hias exceeding 10% were T3 and T4 of b and c reagent combinations, which reached 100% (20/20) . Furthermore, the biases of T3, T8 and B of d reagent combination compared with that of reagent a combination were also substantial. The probabilities of bias exceeding 10% were 35% (7/20) ,85% (17/20) and 75% (15/20), respectively. Comparing the results of samples prepared and analyzed by reagents and instruments from different manufacturers to that of samples prepared and analyzed by the same company's reagents and instruments showed that there were great discrepancies in T3, T4 , T8 , B and NK. The probabilities of bias exceeding 10% were 71% ( 17/24), 80% (19/24) ,38% (9/24), 33% (8/24) and 92% (22/24), respectively. The biases of T8, NK and B were substantial when compared the results from Beckman Coulter Epics XL analytic systems and BD FACS Calibur analytic systems. The probabilities of bias exceeding 10% were 55% (11/20 ), 70% ( 14/20 ) and 55% (11/20), respectively. Conclusions FCM labs should set up their own normal reference range for peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets. The normal reference range should be verified periodically. It is important to apply internal blood quality control regularly and accumulate the quality control results. The reagents and instrument for preparing peripheral blood samples should be from the same manufacturers.
