Objective To evaluate the testing capabilities of laboratories,analyze existing issues,and improve testing quality,through carrying out the external quality assessment(EQA)of clinical laboratories for human papillomavirus(HPV)type 6 and 11 nucleic acid detection.Methods EQA plan was carried out twice a year.Each panel contains 4 positive samples,including one strong positive sample and one weak positive sample of HPV6 and HPV11,made from cervical secretions from patients with clinical manifestations of condyloma acuminata(CA)and positive for HPV6 or HPV11(from Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital).One negative sample was cultured from the C-33A cell line(from Chinese Academy of Sciences).Samples were sent to participating laboratories by cold chain,and laboratories were required to detect test samples and upload their results within the specified time.Shanghai Center for Clinical Laboratory(SCCL)calculated the scores of each laboratory based on the return results.Results A total of 163 sample panels were sent out in the 6 rounds of EQA plan and 140 valid reports were received.The laboratory qualification rate was 96.43%(135/140)and the sample compliance rate was 97.86%(685/700).There were 13 false negative results and 2 false positive results,with weakly positive samples accounting for 76.92%(10/13)of the false negative results.Conclusion The detection accuracy of HPV6/11 nucleic acid in each laboratory was relatively high,and the detection ability of weak positive samples in individual laboratories may need to be improved.The laboratory could discover problems and improve its quality management by participating in EQA.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Mashao Pingchuan decoction （MSPC） on lipopolysaccharides （LPS）-induced autophagy in human bronchial airway epithelial cells （16HBE） via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway. Method16HBE cells were selected for the study， and cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） was used to detect the activity of of LPS-induced 16HBE cells and the effect of MSPC-containing serum on the cells. Suitable LPS-induced 16HBE cells were screened by the CCK-8 method， and the content of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） was measured to identify the established model. And MSPC-containing serum was prepared. The cells were divided into normal group， LPS group， LPS+MSPC group， LY294002+LPS group and LY294002+LPS+MSPC group. Transmission electron microscopy was performed to observe the changes in autophagic vesicles and ultrastructure of the cells. Western blot was performed to detect the protein expressions of PI3K， phosphorylated PI3K （p-PI3K）， Akt， phosphorylated Akt （p-Akt）， mTOR， phosphorylated mTOR （p-mTOR） and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B （LC3B）， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the expressions of inflammatory factors interleukin-5 （IL-5）， IL-6， TNF-α and IL-10 in the five groups. ResultLPS inhibited the 16HBE cells in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with the normal group， the LPS group （150 mg·L^-1 of LPS） increased the expression of pro-inflammatory factor TNF-α after 24 h of treatment （P<0.05） and facilitated the autophagosome formation， and MSPC-containing serum exerted a concentration-dependent promotion effect on the 16HBE cells， inhibited the autophagy to a certain degree and enhanced the cell status. Western blot revealed that the protein expressions of p-PI3K， p-Akt and p-mTOR in the model group were lower （P<0.05） and the protein expression of LC3B was higher （P<0.01） than those in the normal group. Compared with the conditions in the LPS group， the protein expressions of p-PI3K， p-Akt and p-mTOR in the LPS+MSPC group were elevated （P<0.05） and that of LC3B was reduced （P<0.05）. Compared with the LPS+LY294002 group， the LY294002+LPS+MSCP group had up-regulated protein expressions of p-PI3K， p-Akt and p-mTOR （P<0.05） and down-regulated protein expression of LC3B （P<0.05）. ELISA showed that the LPS group had higher levels of IL-5， IL-6， TNF-α and IL-10 than the normal group， while the levels of TNF-α， IL-6 and IL-8 were decreased （P<0.01） and the level of IL-10 was increased （P<0.01） after treatment with MSCP. ConclusionMSCP may lower the LPS-induced autophagy in 16HBE cells and improve the inflammatory response through activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate long-term survivals and toxicities of early-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in endemic area, evaluating the role of chemotherapy in stage II patients. Materials and Methods: Totally 187 patients with newly diagnosed NPC and restaged American Joint Committee on Cancer/ International Union Against Cancer 8th T1-2N0-1M0 were retrospectively recruited. All received intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)±chemotherapy (CT) from 2001 to 2010. Results: With 15.7-year median follow-up, 10-year locoregional recurrence-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), disease-specific survival (DSS), and overall survival (OS) were 93.3%, 93.5%, 92.9% and 88.2%, respectively. Multivariable analyses showed cervical lymph nodes positive and pre-treatment prognostic nutritional index ≥ 52.0 could independently predict DMFS (p=0.036 and p=0.011), DSS (p=0.014 and p=0.026), and OS (p=0.002 and p < 0.001); Charlson comorbidity index < 3 points could predict DSS (p=0.011); age > 45 years (p=0.002) and pre-treatment lactate dehydrogenase ≥ 240 U/L (p < 0.001) predicted OS. No grade 4 late toxicity happened; grade 3 late toxicities included subcutaneous fibrosis (4.3%), deafness or otitis (4.8%), skin dystrophy (2.1%), and xerostomia (1.1%). No differences on survivals were shown between IMRT+CT vs. IMRT alone in stage II patients, even in T2N1M0 (p > 0.05). Unsurprising, patients in IMRT+CT had more acute gastrointestinal reaction, myelosuppression, mucositis, late ear toxicity, and cranial nerve injury (all p < 0.05) than IMRT alone group. Conclusion Superior tumor control and satisfying long-term outcomes could be achieved with IMRT in early-stage NPC with mild late toxicities. As CT would bring more toxicities, it should be carefully performed to stage II patients.

NKX6-2 encodes a transcription factor involving the genesis and development of oligodendrocytes.Mutations in the NKX6-2 gene are related to a severe variant of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy, namely the NKX6-2-related spastic ataxia type 8 (SPAX8). As of March 24, 2020, there are 36 cases of SPAX8 involving 11 mutations of the NKX6-2 gene, which has not been reported in Chinese population.This article for the first time reported a 31-month-old Chinese boy diagnosed as SPAX8 caused by a novel mutation of the NKX6-2 gene at c. 234dup(p.Leu79Alafs*? ) admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation, Guangdong Women and Children Hospital in October 2019 retrospectively.He presented severe global psychomotor delay, spasticity, nystagmus, hearing impairment and trichiasis, ametropia of both eyes, and retinal degeneration of the right eye, which have not been reported in previous cases.His elder sister presented relevant manifestations, but did not perform the genetic testing.Through this case report and literature review, the genotype and phenotype of SPAX8 were expanded.

Objective:To investigate the effect of arthroscopically-assisted open reduction and internal fixation of intra-articular distal radius fracture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was made on clinical data of 44 patients with distal radial intraarticular fracture admitted to Jing′an District Central Hospital, Fudan University between June 2017 and August 2020. There were 13 males and 31 females, at age of 35-85years [(62.5±12.9)years]. According to AO/OTA fracture classification system, there were 7 patients with type B and 37 with type C. Open reduction and internal fixation with volar plate was used in all patients, among which 22 were operated on using arthroscopy assistance (arthroscopy group) and 22 were operated on with traditional intraoperative fluoroscopy (fluoroscopy group). The operation time in both groups and triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury and fracture displacement in arthroscopy group were recorded. Patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) questionnaire and range of wrist motion were compared between the two groups at 12 months after operation. The incidence of complications was observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-15 months [(13.3±1.1)months]. The operation time in arthroscopy group was (104.0±40.5)minutes, longer than (71.3±32.1)minutes in fluoroscopy group ( P<0.05). In arthroscopy group, 14 patients (64%) with TFCC injury were diagnosed intraoperatively, with the fracture displacement gap and step for 0.8 (0.3, 0.8)mm and 1.0 (0.3, 1.5)mm under arthroscopic vision, which were reduced to 0.3 (0.0, 0.5)mm and 0.5 (0.0, 0.5)mm after arthroscopically-assisted reduction (all P<0.05). The PRWE score in arthroscopy group was (9.8±4.9)points at 12 months after operation, lower than (13.4±5.8)points in fluoroscopy group ( P<0.05). The DASH questionnaire in arthroscopy group was (9.0±5.0)points at 12 months after operation, lower than (13.0±6.1)points in fluoroscopy group ( P<0.05). The dorsal extension and posterior rotation of the wrist in arthroscopy group were (73.8±8.9)° and (82.5±8.0)°, higher than (65.8±14.2)° and (76.3±10.4)° in fluoroscopy group (all P<0.05). There were no postoperative complications such as loosened or broken screws, vascular nerve damage, incision infection or traumatic arthritis in both groups. Conclusion:Arthroscopic-assisted open reduction and internal fixation of intra-articular distal radius fracture can increase the accuracy of joint surface reduction, improve postoperative wrist function and confirm the diagnosis of TFCC injury during operation.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of transperineal prostate targeted biopsy guided by holographic image.Methods:Clinical data of 10 patients with transperineal prostate targeted biopsy guided by holographic image in Peking University Shougang Hospital between May and September 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The average age was (70.9±10.3) years old, the median PSA was 15.1(6.02-1110.14) ng/ml, prostate MRI were performed before biopsy and the PI-RADS scores were all ≥ 3, and the number of suspicious target lesions was 1.4±0.5. CT examinations of urinary system were performed on the premise of mild lithotomy position and positioning stickers pasted on the skin of perineum and lower abdomen. The original data of CT and MRI were obtained, holographic image models were firstly made separately and then fused into a complete model, and the puncture paths were planned for the target lesions. At the time of puncture, the patient took the same body position as in CT scan, the operator wore a mixed reality head mounted display (HoloLens glasses), and the skin positioning stickers were used for visual registration between the holographic model and the real human body. Then under the guidance of the virtual puncture path, the puncture biopsy gun was placed, fired after reaching the predetermined depth, a transrectal ultrasound probe was placed to clarify the position of the puncture needle, and the objective accuracy of puncture was judged by comparison of ultrasound and MRI images. If the first shot was judged to be inaccurate, it was allowed to make a supplementary shot after adjusting the angle. After holographic guided biopsies, cognitive fusion targeted biopsies and 12-needle systematic biopsies were performed routinely, and the proportion of positive needles of the three different biopsy methods were calculated respectively.Results:All the 10 cases were successfully completed, including 16 holographic image guided shots, 28 cognitive fusion targeted shots and 116 systematic shots. The objective accuracy of holographic image guided biopsy after first shot judgments was 68.8% (11/16), while it raised to 87.5% (14/16) after supplementary shots. The proportion of positive needles in the three puncture methods were 56.3% (9/16), 42.9% (12/28) and 19.8% (23/116), respectively ( P=0.002). The results of subjective questionnaire showed that holographic model was helpful to improve the spatial understanding of lesions. The satisfaction of intraoperative holographic registration and guided puncture were 90% and 60%, respectively. No puncture related complication occurred in this group. Conclusion:The study preliminarily confirmed the feasibility of holographic image-guided prostate targeted biopsy. This new puncture method has better objective accuracy, and the proportion of positive needles is significantly better than systematic biopsy.

With the rapid development of sequencing technology and bioinformatics analysis, the application of high-throughput sequencing (NGS) technology in precision medicine has been deepening, mainly in genetic disease diagnosis, tumor gene detection and concomitant diagnosis, as well as infectious disease detection. Compared with the traditional clinical tests, NGS analysis are more complicated with tedious operation steps and complex workflow, and they have high requirements for data analysis and variant interpretation. NGS approaches were reviewed in clinical diagnosis for constitutional disorders, cancer, infectious diseases as well as current issues in these clinical applications. Finally some suggestions for the quality management of laboratories were discussed.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of the holographic image and navigation in robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) .Methods:From Sept. 2020 to Dec. 2020, 5 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer in Beijing United Family Hospital were included in this study. The mean age was 57 years(38-69 years). Before the operation, the engineers established the holographic image based on the enhanced MRI images. The holographic images were used in pre-surgery planning. During the operation, the navigation was achieved by real time fusing holographic images with the robotic surgery endoscopic views.

The pathological results were pT 3bN 0 cM 0, pT 2aN 0 cM 0, pT 2aN 0 cM 0, pT 2aN 0 cM 0 and pT 3aN 1 cM 0, respectively. There was no over Clavien Dindo Ⅱ perioperative complications. 4 patient achieved continence when catheter removal. The PSA level and erectile function were monitored in the follow up. Conclusions:Holographic image navigation might have clinical value in RARP.

Objective To explore the effects of triclosan (TCS) on the immune function of mice. Methods Forty male and female Kunming mice (25±2 g) were selected. The animals were divided into 5 groups according to body weight ratio, including a blank control (saline solution) group, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group, and three triclosan solution groups (59.375 mg/kg, 118.75 mg/kg, and 237.5 mg/kg, respectively). There were 8 mice in each group, half male and half female. Animals were treated with TCS by intragastric administration once a day for two weeks. Upon the completion of the treatment, animals were sacrificed, the spleen, thymus and other tissues were collected, and the ratios of their weight to body weigh were calculated. The peripheral blood was taken by eye-ball removal method, and the half hemolysis value was determined. Results Compared with the positive control group, the spleen index of male mice in the medium dose group and high dose group increased significantly (P < 0.05), and the spleen index of female mice in the high dose group showed significant difference (P < 0.05). Compared with the positive control group, the thymus index of male high dose group was significantly different (P < 0.05). The thymus indexes of female high, medium, and low dose groups all were significantly different compared to the control group (P < 0.05). HC50 results showed that the HC50 of both male and female mice decreased (P < 0.05). Conclusion High concentration of triclosan can inhibit the immune function of Kunming mice.
