2016 Issues

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 4/16

April 2016—Comparison of methods for analyzing gene amplification in gastric cancers; Uterine smooth muscle tumor analysis by comparative genomic hybridization; Role of TAZ in aggressive types of endometrial cancer; Reclassification of resected lung carcinomas diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma; Sequencing of cancer genes in ampullary carcinoma shows trends in histologic subtypes; Prognostic significance of the 2014 ISUP grading system for prostate cancer

Q&A column, 4/16

April 2016—We review peripheral blood smears and sometimes provide recommendations. For microcytic anemia with high red blood cell count, iron study and hemoglobin electrophoresis are suggested to rule out hemoglobinopathy. But for cases of microcytosis with high RBC count but without anemia, should we give the same recommendation as for an anemic patient?

Newsbytes, 4/16

April 2016—Finding, fixing, and foiling shadow IT problems: The unsanctioned use of mobile devices and cloud-based software in the workplace, often referred to as shadow IT, is a pervasive problem. Yet, through education and enforcement of policies, it’s a problem that can be minimized.

In memoriam: Thomas P. Wood, MD | 1929–2016

April 2016—Thomas P. Wood, MD, the 25th president of the CAP, died Feb. 15 at age 87. Dr. Wood was speaker of the House of Delegates from 1992 to 1995, president-elect from 1995 to 1997, and president from 1997 to 1999. He was a longtime member of the Professional Affairs Committee (which he also chaired) and the Council on Government and Professional Affairs, and he was a board director of the CAP Foundation for six years. In 2000, the CAP recognized him as Pathologist of the Year.

Beyond connectivity: middleware’s shifting shape

April 2016—Middleware was always about connectivity. But when it emerged on the scene some 20 years ago, connectivity involved basically one mandate: getting laboratory instruments to talk electronically to a hospital’s laboratory information system, accept orders, and deliver results to the right shelves in the LIS warehouse.

Put It on the Board, 4/16

April 2016—Logistics hurdles overcome for single Pap-HPV report: Is one test better than two? That question—primary HPV versus the Pap-HPV cotesting option—has roiled the world of cervical cancer screening since the Food and Drug Administration approved a primary HPV screening test in April 2014. However clinicians decide to answer that question, this much is clear: A single report is better than two separate results.

Immunotherapy steers focus to microenvironment

March 2016—It’s not every day that a monoclonal antibody leads the news. But when former president Jimmy Carter was successfully treated for metastasized melanoma last year with the new drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda), the story made headlines. Carter’s recovery—surprising to many when it was announced in December—may have been helped by traditional radiation and chemotherapy. However, the role played by pembrolizumab spotlighted immunotherapy as an exciting advance in the evolution of cancer treatment.

Cutting cultures: the move to all molecular in virology

March 2016—For laboratories performing virology testing, taking advantage of molecular testing’s superiority to traditional testing methods is a no-brainer. But leaders in the University of Michigan’s clinical microbiology laboratory have found that the push to go all molecular for virology testing must be tempered by attentiveness to clinician preferences and a collaborative approach that’s likelier to make the journey a success.
