Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has become an essential method in psychiatric disorders. However, many problems occurred in clinical application. This article interpreted the Association Standard T/CMEAS 011-2023'Operating Specifications for Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Clinical Applications on Psychiatric Disorders′ released by the Chinese Medicine Education Association. The main content included a range of applications, normative references, terms and definitions, site specifications, equipment specifications, ability specifications of rTMS operators and rTMS process specifications.This article provided suggestions for clinical applications of rTMS on psychiatric disorders.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinicopathological features and the differential diagnosis of poroma and porocarcinoma.

METHODSHistopathological characteristics and clinical data of 35 cases of poroma and 10 cases of porocarcinoma were analyzed retrospectively.

RESULTSThe average age of 35 patients of poroma was 48 years. The average age of 10 patients of porocarcinoma was 65 years. Both poroma and porocarcinoma occured most frequently on the scalp and face,as well as the extremities. Histologically, cases of poroma were divided into three subtypes, including classic poroma (23 cases), hidroacanthoma simplex (3 cases) and dermal duct tumor (9 cases). Residual foci of benign poroma were found in all cases of porocarcinoma, most of which were classic poroma. The malignant components showed severe dysplasia and/or stromal infiltration.

CONCLUSIONThe diagnosis of poroma and porocarcinoma is mainly based on the microscopic characteristics. An invasive architectural pattern and/or significant cytologic pleomorphism are the most important clues for the diagnosis of porocarcinoma. Neither focal mitotic activity nor the presence of necrosis was the diagnostic feature of porocarcinoma. Malignant transformation can occur in some cases of long existing poroma with recent, rapid tumor enlargement.

SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is the etiologic agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome. The aim of this study was to construct Sars-CoV membrane (M), nucleocapsid (N) and spike 2 (S2) gene eukaryotic expression plasmids, and identify their expression in vitro. Gene fragments encoding N protein, M protein and S2 protein of SARS-CoV were amplified by PCR using cDNA obtained from lung samples of SARS patients as template, and subcloned into pcDNA3.1 vector to form eukaryotic expression plasmids. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were transfected respectively into CHO cells. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of the structural proteins of SARS-CoV in transfected cells. SARS-CoV protein eukaryotic expression plasmids were successfully constructed by identification with digestion of restriction enzymes and sequencing. M, N and S2 proteins of SARS-CoV were detected in the cytoplasm of transfected CHO cells. It was concluded that these recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmids were constructed successfully, and SARS-CoV encoding proteins could activate transcription and expression of hfgl2 gene.

smids were constructed suc-cessfully, and SARS-CoV encoding proteins could activate transcription and expression of hfgl2 gene.
