Currently, the management of domestic laboratory developed test (LDT) is still in the exploration stage, and new plans and ideas need to be investigated that are suitable for our national development. By analyzing encountered issues, combining the actual needs of the government, healthcare reform, and patients, this article proposes that "promoting healthy development of LDT projects and focusing on the organic combination of patients′ interest protection and innovation support" is an important direction for LDT management, around which the new idea for LDT project management is proposed, that is, LDT management model targeting product registration. The core of this management model is to target product registration and to ensure low service fees for patients and continuous real-time data monitoring. Benefit and risk analysis demonstrate that this management model can to a larger extent balance the realistic demands of patients, medical institutions, in vitro diagnostics companies, and government management departments, which benefits promoting the perfection and development of LDT projects in our country.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive T 1-2N 1M 0 breast cancer in the context of HER2-targeted therapy. Methods:This study collected the clinical data of 105 female patients with HER2-positive T 1-2N 1M 0 breast cancer who underwent modified radical mastectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from January 2013 to December 2019. Then, the clinical outcomes of these patients were observed, and the prognostic factors and the efficacy of PMRT were analyzed. Results:The median follow-up time was 50 months (ranging from 14 to 107 months), and the 5-year overall survival (OS), local-regional recurrence-free survival(LRFS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were 81.6%, 91.9%, and 76.2%, respectively. The multivariate analysis indicated that independent prognostic factors for OS and DFS include the age, pathologic grade, and tumor size; the independent risk factors for LRFS include positive lymph node ratio (LNR) and hormone receptor (HR) status; and the independent prognostic factor for DFS was PMRT (HR: 2.85, 95% CI: 1.10-8.80, P < 0.05). The subgroup analysis suggested that PMRT significantly improved the OS of various high-risk subgroups ( χ2=4.01-9.18, P < 0.05). However, the further stratified analysis indicated that PMRT only increased the OS of the patients who did not receive HER2-targeted therapy in various high-risk subgroups ( χ2=4.50-6.70, P < 0.05), while there was no statistical difference before and after PMRT for the individuals who received targeted treatment ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:PMRT is an independent prognostic factor for the DFS of patients with HER2-positive T 1-2N 1M 0 breast cancer who underwent modified radical mastectomy. PMRT can improve the OS of high-risk patients with ages < 45 years old, pathologic grade Ⅲ, tumor diameter ≥ 3 cm, LNR > 10%, and HR (-) who received no HER2-targeted therapy. However, the efficacy may be compromised to some extent in the context of the application of HER2-targeted therapy.

Objective:To explore the effects of the deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) technique on cardiac dosimetry in internal mammary node irradiation with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMN-IMRT) for postoperative left breast cancer.Methods:Totally 23 left breast cancer patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from Octorber 2021 to July 2022 receiving postoperative IMN-IMRT were enrolled in this study. The changes in dosimetric parameters for their heart and left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) in the DIBH mode were observed, and the potential factors affecting DIBH effects were analyzed.Results:Compared with the free breath (FB) mode, the DIBH mode manifested a heart volume decrease by 18% ( t = 10.47, P < 0.001), a left lung volume increase by 42% ( t = -14.55, P < 0.001), and significantly reduced dosimetric parameters ( Dmean, Dmax, V5- V30) for the heart and LAD, exhibiting statistically significant differences ( t=-13.38 to -3.30, P<0.05). As indicated by the Pearson correlation analysis, the relative ratio of cardiac dose reduction was positively correlated with that of left lung expansion ( r = 0.82, P < 0.001) and negatively correlated with the patient′age ( r = -0.56, P = 0.005). Conclusions:DIBH can effectively reduce the heart and LAD radiation doses in IMN-IMRT for postoperative left breast cancer and that the patient's age, and the DIBH effects might be affected by the vital capacity.

【Objective】 To explore the clinical value of thromboelas-tography, coagulation four items and platelet count in guiding platelet transfusion in critically ill patients. 【Methods】 A total of 188 critically ill patients in Intensive Care Unit of our hospital from January 2020 to January 2022 were selected as subjects, and were divided into study group(n=89) and the control(n=99) according to the presence of bleeding symptoms. T-test was used for comparative analysis between the two groups. Spearman was used to analyze the correlation between TEG, coagulation four items and platelet count, and binary Logistic regression analysis was used to predict the influential factors of bleeding in critically ill patients, ROC curve was used to analyze the guiding value of the above-mentioned indexes for platelet transfusion. 【Results】 1) K and PT values in the study group, above the normal range, were significantly higher than those in the control, while the Angle value, MA value, CI value, FIB value and platelet count were significantly lower than those of the control, among which MA value, CI value and platelet count were below the normal range. 2) TEG, coagulation four items and platelet count were correlated. MA and CI values were positively correlated with platelet count, instead, R and K values were negatively correlated. R value was positively correlated with PT and APTT, CI value, on the contrary, was negatively correlated, K value was positively correlated with PT, while Angle value and MA value were negatively correlated. 3) Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that decreased MA value and decreased platelet count were independent risk factors for predicting bleeding in critically ill patients(P<0.05). 4) ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under ROC curve corresponding to Angle value, MA value, CI value, FIB value and platelet count were 0.866, 0.932, 0.9, 0.838 and 0.987(P<0.05). The sensitivity was highest in platelet count and lowest in FIB. The specificity was highest in MA and lowest in Angle. Compared with the single index, the area under the curve of the combined index(K value, MA value, CI value, PT value and platelet count) was 0.995(P<0.05), Yoden index 0.944, sensitivity 100%, specificity 93.3%, all higher than the individual index. 【Conclusion】 Thromboelas-tography combined with coagulation four items and platelet count can be used to accurately predict the critically ill patients with bleeding risk. To guide clinical platelets transfusion, the combined use of indexes, including K value, MA, CI value, PT and platelet count, is superior to separate use of them as the former showed better sensitivity and specificity, demonstrating a good clinical value.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of multi-drug resistant organism(MDRO)infection in orthopedic trauma patients.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on clinical data of 95 orthopedic patients with in-hospital wound infection admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2020 to December 2020,including 71 males and 24 females at age of 14-70 years[(42.6 ± 13.8)years]. MDRO infection occurred in 38 patients(DRO group),while not in 57 patients(non-MDRO group). Etiological characteristics of wound infections were observed. Univariate analysis was used to compare variables between the two groups,including baseline data(gender,age,length of hospital stay,chronic comorbidity)and injury as well as hospitalization information(transfer from another hospital,emergency admission,time from injury to first treatment,open injury,combination with fracture,wound contamination,depth of wound,ICU stay,number of operations,cumulative operation time,type of incision,length of hospital stay before diagnosis of infection,type of antibiotics used,usage of hormones/immunosuppressive agents,level of hemoglobin/serum albumin/blood glucose on admission). Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze independent risk factors for MDRO infection.Results:A total of 119 pathogenic bacteria were detected on the wound,including 21 gram-positive cocci(18%),91 gram-negative bacilli(76%)and 7 others(6%). Top five strains were Acinetobacter baumannii,Enterobacter cloacae,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Univariate analysis showed the two groups had significant differences in terms of length of hospital stay,wound contamination,ICU stay,length of hospital stay before diagnosis of infection,type of antibiotics used and levels of hemoglobin and serum albumin on admission( P < 0.05),but not in gender,age,hypertension,diabetes,transfer from another hospital and emergency admission( P > 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed MDRD infection was obviously correlated with the long hospital stay( OR = 1.033, 95%CI 1.005-1.061, P < 0.05),time from injury to first treatment over 6 hours( OR = 4.282, 95%CI 1.174-15.616, P < 0.05),types of antibiotics used ≥ 3( OR = 7.486, 95%CI 2.451-22.863, P < 0.05)and low level of hemoglobin on admission( OR = 0.973, 95%CI 0.962-0.985, P < 0.05). Conclusions:For orthopedic trauma patients,MDRO infection is independently associated with long hospital stay,time from injury to first treatment,type of antibiotics use and level of hemoglobin on admission,suggesting that decreased length of hospitalization,shortened time of first wound treatment,individualized and rational usage of antibiotics and timely correction of anemia are important measures to prevent MDRO infection.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of muscle necrosis in patients with acute compartment syndrome(ACS).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted for clinical data of 111 ACS patients admitted to West China Hospital, Sichuan University from January 2010 to December 2020, including 84 males and 27 females; age 18-76 years [45(36, 55)years]. Muscle necrosis was presented in 35 patients(necrotic muscle group), but was not seen in 76 patients(non-necrotic muscle group). The univariate analysis was performed for the two groups in the demographic data(sex, age, ethnicity, body mass index, smoking history, chronic comorbidities), injury patterns [ mechianism of injury(low energy injury, high energy injury, crush injury, other injury), time from injury to treatment, first visit or not, combination with bone fracture or not, open injury or not, presence of tension blisters or not], medical treatment(number of debridements, fasciotomy or not)and laboratory indicators [hemoglobin(Hb), platelet count(PLT), white blood cell count(WBC), prothrombin time(PT), international normalized ratio(INR), partially activated prothrombin time(APTT), fibrinogen(FIB), D-Dimer(D-D), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase(AST), albumin(ALB), intravenous blood glucose(GLU), creatine kinase(CK), peak value of CK during hospitalization(natural logarithmic conversion, lnCK), serum sodium(NA), serum potassium(K), serum calcium(CA)]. Further multivariate logistic regression was performed to analyze the independent risk factors of muscle necrosis in ACS patients.Results:The univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the mechanism of injury, first visit or not, combination with bone fracture or not, number of debridements, Hb, PT, INR, D-D, AST, ALB, GLU, CK and lnCK( P<0.05), while not in the basic data, time from injury to treatment, open injury or not, presence of tension blisters or not, fasciotomy or not, PLT, WBC, APTT, FIB, ALT, NA, K and CA( P>0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high energy injury( OR=5.143, 95% CI 1.216-21.758, P<0.05), crush injury( OR=22.313, 95% CI 2.625-189.635, P<0.05), other mechanism of injury( OR=9.019, 95% CI 1.036-78.554, P<0.05), first visit or not( OR=0.071, 95% CI 0.006-0.819, P<0.05), Hb( OR=0.979, 95% CI 0.961-0.998, P<0.05), GLU( OR=1.218, 95% CI 1.020-1.455, P<0.05)and lnCK( OR=1.805, 95% CI 1.235-2.639, P<0.05)were significantly related with muscle necrosis. Conclusion:The mechanism of injury, first visit or not, Hb, GLU and lnCK are the independent risk factors of muscle necrosis in patients with ACS.

Objective To evaluate the application of three dimensional time-of-flight (3D-TOF) MRA in screening intracranial aneurysms in the population of Wenling community. Methods A total of 2 124 patients with suspicious intracranial aneurysm in Wenling community, who received 3D-TOF MRA and three dimensional digital subtraction angiography(3D-DSA) during the period from September 2011 to August 2012, were enrolled in this study. The epidemic data of intracranial aneurysm in Wenling community were analyzed, the effectiveness of 3D-TOF MRA in detecting intracranial aneurysm was assessed, and the consistency between 3D-TOF MRA and 3D-DSA (regarded as the golden standard) in detecting intracranial aneurysm was statistically analyzed. Results The results of 3D-TOF MRA showed that the morbidity of intracranial aneurysm in the population of Wenling community was 6.87% (146/2 124), among which the morbidities in males and females were 48.63% (n=71) and 51.37% (n=75) respectively; the mean age of patients was (41.2±11.6) years old. The accompanying diseases included hypertension, diabetes mellitus, arteriosclerosis and cerebrovascular lesions. 3D-TOF MRA examination revealed 149 intracranial aneurysms, among which misdiagnosis was made in 5 patients and missed diagnosis in 2 patients. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 3D-TOF MRA in diagnosing intracranial aneurysm were 98.63% (144/146), 99.72%(1 773/1 778) and 99.67%(2 117/2 124) respectively. No statistically significant difference in measuring the longitudinal diameter and neck width of intracranial aneurysms existed between 3D-TOF MRA and 3D-DSA examinations (P>0.05). Conclusion In detecting intracranial aneurysm, 3D-TOF MRA carries higher sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, and its non-invasive advantage is more suitable for the screening of intracranial aneurysms.
