July 2017—Effects of early tranexamic acid administration on women with postpartum hemorrhage: The leading cause of maternal death is postpartum hemorrhage, which is defined as blood loss of more than 500 mL within 24 hours of giving birth. The majority of such deaths occur in low-income and middle-income countries.
July 2017—Potential quality indicators for lymph node staging of colon cancer: Evaluation of 12 or more lymph nodes is used as a quality indicator for adequacy of pathologic examination of colon cancer resections. The authors conducted a study to evaluate the utility of a focused lymph node search in the immediate vicinity of the tumor and a “second-look” protocol for improving lymph node staging in colon cancer.
July 2017—Immune checkpoint inhibition therapy, such as blockage of PD-1/PD-L1 interaction, has proven effective in many types of cancers. The mechanism underlying this therapy is postulated to involve “disinhibition” of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes that respond to neoantigens expressed by tumor cells. In theory, the larger the number of neoantigens expressed, the greater the immune response resulting from disinhibition.
July 2017—Machine learning: What will it do for pathology? If finance, online retail, and other industries are “embracing” machine learning, then the medical field is still in the polite handshake phase, despite the potential of this form of artificial intelligence to revolutionize health care. Recent research endeavors highlight just a few examples of what machine learning, which allows computers to analyze data, detect patterns, and build algorithms to guide decision-making, can contribute to the field of pathology alone.
July 2017—A laboratory is considering the implementation of a laboratory test for the diagnosis of Zika virus infection. This test is currently labeled as a test under the issuance of an Emergency Use Authorization. What specific regulations regarding the use of this test, quality control, and proficiency testing apply when performing this test on patient specimens?
July 2017—Putting pathology at the center of precision medicine: Michael H. Roehrl, MD, PhD, pathologist and director of the Precision Pathology Biobanking Center at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, would like to see more joint development of companion diagnostics—pathologists and industry working together. It would lead, in his view, to better companion diagnostics.
