ARTICLES

Pressing questions in POC glucose testing

April 2015—Sometimes major changes to a health care organization’s point-of-care testing system come from powerful regulatory agencies in Washington, DC. Or they may arise when a child with diabetes objects to frequent venipuncture. In either kind of case, experts say, pathologists and laboratory professionals must form strong relationships with clinicians and build structural foundations to help them meet these and other demands.

Nothing peripheral about assessing the ‘other’ cytopenias

April 2015—Think age is important only if you’re a Hollywood actress (unless you’re lucky enough to be Meryl Streep)? Think again. Specifically, Joan Etzell, MD, wants pathologists to think about age-adjusted reference ranges for thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. They’re intrinsic to the basic definitions of these diseases, she pointed out in a course on peripheral cytopenias at last year’s AACC meeting.

Keeping an active eye on prostate cancer

April 2015—In December 2011, M. Elizabeth H. Hammond, MD, was a member of an expert panel for an NIH State-of-the-Science conference on the role of active surveillance in managing men with localized prostate cancer. At these public meetings patients can address the panelists.

Critical stressors in the microbiology lab: four Cs

April 2015—If you ask average patients what infectious diseases they worry about contracting during a hospital stay, Ebola may top the list, perhaps followed by MRSA and HIV. But ask clinical microbiologists what has been keeping them up at night lately, and those pathogens aren’t the ones they cite.

Workflow, regulatory unknowns tax molecular IT

April 2015—Alexis Carter, MD, immediate past president of the Association for Pathology Informatics, isn’t under any illusion about how well information technology is meeting the needs of molecular diagnostics. “Laboratory information systems right now do a fairly decent job of getting samples to the right lab, tracking the sample, and reporting results,” Dr. Carter says. But when it comes to molecular diagnostics laboratories, “LISs are really not where they should be. They’re kind of moving at a turtle’s pace to keep up.”

At St. Jude, preemptive PGx tests guide prescribing

April 2015—St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Memphis, brings a razor-sharp focus to its mission: the 78-bed institution cares for children with catastrophic illnesses, including leukemias and lymphomas, solid tumors, hematology disorders (including sickle cell disease), and infectious diseases. It doesn’t have an emergency department. Consistent with its goal of advancing cures, all its patients are enrolled in research protocols.

How satisfied are physicians with labs? Study digs deep

March 2015—In the span of human history, seven years is nothing but an eye blink. But in technological terms, seven years might as well be a geologic epoch. Consider: Only since 2007 have we seen Netflix streaming services; Kindles, Nooks, and other e-readers; and the sweeping adoption of the iPhone.

Groups closing the gap in reference materials for sequencing assays

March 2015—It’s a truism in the clinical laboratory that your results are only as good as the reference standards available to QC your assay. For measuring small analytes like glucose that’s not a problem. However, in clinical laboratories the analyte in question increasingly is DNA. In the past five years, next-generation sequencing has been adopted to detect variants in small targeted regions of specific genes, which is useful in oncology and medical genetics. More ambitious applications of NGS—whole genome and whole exome sequencing—have recently begun to enter the clinical realm as well.

Genetic profiling vies with IHC in retune of CUP testing

March 2015—Tesla beats Camry. Online catalogs replace paper. Keurig edges out Chemex. Mobile trounces landline. When paradigms shift, the theory goes, we can only cling to the technology in the outbox for just so long. But that’s a theory that may not apply to diagnostic testing for cancer of unknown primary (CUP). Microarray-based gene expression profiling (GEP) has recently gained a foothold in the quest to identify origins and therapeutic targets for metastatic cancer, but traditional immunohistochemistry is not about to be sidelined.
