December 2017—Hospital cyberattack a brief setback with lasting gain: A cyberattack that paralyzed the computer systems at a rural West Virginia hospital last summer could have brought the laboratory’s work to a screeching halt. But that didn’t happen, thanks, in part, to the downtime procedures in place throughout the laboratory and the low-tech nature of the lab’s pathology operations.
December 2017—FDA announces IMPACT authorization and path for authorization of other tumor profiling tests: The FDA on Nov. 15 authorized Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center’s IMPACT (Integrated Mutation Profiling of Actionable Cancer Targets) tumor profiling test. The IMPACT test uses next-generation sequencing to identify the presence of mutations in 468 unique genes, as well as other molecular changes in the genomic makeup of a tumor.
November 2017—My sister Jean had a Chatty Cathy doll; you pulled a cord in the back of her neck and she would say one of a handful of things (“Would you like some tea?”). Chatty Cathy was Jean’s favorite for a while, supplanting her much-loved Raggedy Ann. The coup lasted just long enough to make it plain that the new kid on the block didn’t have much to say for herself. She was kind of stiff and controlling, really. Raggedy Ann was a much better listener. Making up stories with her was a lot more fun.
November 2017—Performance of virological testing for early infant diagnosis: a systematic review: The World Health Organization recommends that HIV-exposed infants receive virological testing for HIV infection between four and six weeks of age and treatment with antiretroviral (ARV) therapy as soon as the diagnosis is made. Despite efforts to expand mother-to-child transmission prevention programs, only an estimated 50 percent of HIV-exposed infants are tested within the first two months of life.
November 2017—Software-validation products: finding a glitch before it’s a hitch: The idiom “time is of the essence” isn’t lost on Lisa Adams, senior information technology systems analyst at Banner Health and a believer in the need for speed when identifying software glitches and errors.
November 2017—Molecular analysis of colorectal tumors in Lynch syndrome: Lynch syndrome, most often caused by a germline mutation in MSH2, MSH6, MLH1, or PMS2, contributes to a number of malignancies, including colorectal and endometrial cancer.
November 2017—MCM2: an alternative to Ki-67 for measuring breast cancer cell proliferatio: Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease comprised of a diversity of tumor subtypes that manifest themselves in a wide variety of clinical, pathological, and molecular features.
November 2017—A laboratory owns chemistry analyzers from company X. Company X recommends that its customers use company X’s calibration material to perform their linearity studies, starting with the highest concentration and using the chemistry analyzer’s autodilution feature to provide a total of four measurable concentrations and a final zero point. Does this protocol fulfill CAP checklist requirements?
November 2017—Study finds biotin interference; FDA clears Flu A/B/RSV assay on Hologic’s Panther Fusion; FDA clears Abbott’s Alinity ci-series; Sysmex introduces CyFlow Antibodies for flow cytometry; Test approved for screening Zika in blood donations; New insights into female reproductive tract development
Biotin pharmacokinetic study results: In Anne Paxton’s September 2016 article, “Beauty fad’s ugly downside: test interference,” I stated a commitment from Roche to reduce possible interferences, including biotin, and provide clear test labeling to ensure that physicians and laboratories can mitigate risk.
