This paper analyzes the current situation of constructing postgraduate education quality assurance systems worldwide, and explores the specific path of constructing a "seven-in-one" medical postgraduate education quality assurance system. The system should be constructed according to the education practice in military medical universities and consider the following aspects: first-class students, first-class teaching, first-class tutors, first-class disciplines, first-class management, first-class culture, and first-class achievements. The system should be constructed by enrollment reform and innovation, teaching method reform, tutor team construction, discipline construction, cultural atmosphere creation, and emphasis on cultivating achievements.

Perfil e desafios da produção e da comercialização de alimentos orgânicos processados no estado do Rio de Janeiro / Profile and challenges of the production and commercialization of processed organic foods in the state of Rio de Janeiro

Introdução: O processamento de alimentos orgânicos por pequenos produtores contribui para um sistema alimentar economicamente, socialmente e ambientalmente sustentável. É importante conhecer o perfil e as potenciais dificuldades dos processadores de alimentos orgânicos, organizados sob a modalidade do Sistema Participativo de Garantia da qualidade orgânica, devido ao seu crescimento e relevância social, para direcionamento de ações e políticas públicas com consequente fortalecimento da agricultura de bases agroecológica. Objetivo: Descrever o perfil dos processadores de alimentos orgânicos do estado do Rio de Janeiro e identificar os principais desafios nas redes de produção e comercialização. Método: Estudo exploratório e descritivo com delineamento transversal realizado por pesquisa documental aos planos de manejos, manual de boas práticas, atas do Sistema Participativo de Garantia, certificados  emitidos pela Associação de Agricultores Biológicos do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, assim como outros documentos de atualização de Organismos Participativos de Avaliação da Conformidade Orgânica em relação aos produtores credenciados. Resultados: Observou-se que 60% dos processadores orgânicos no estado do Rio de Janeiro são vinculados ao Sistema Participativo de Garantia da qualidade orgânica. A unidade de processamento mais utilizada é a anexa ao domicílio. A maioria são agricultores ou microempreendedores familiares que recebem ajuda da família no processo produtivo e a atividade mais desenvolvida é a fabricação de conservas, geleias, molhos e doces. Menos de 70% possuíam alvará de funcionamento e licença sanitária, 97% tinham plano de manejo orgânico; 79% possuíam manual de boas práticas e 78%, plano de rastreabilidade. Das principais dificuldades, destacam-se: aquisição de matéria-prima, adequação às normas sanitárias e logística de distribuição. Conclusões: O estudo desvelou a potencialidade do processamento de produtos orgânicos para o desenvolvimento socioeconômico regional e a necessidade de mais incentivos para viabilizar a inclusão produtiva de pequenos empreendimentos.

Introduction: Smallholder organic food processing contributes to an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable food system. It is important to know the profile and potential difficulties of organic food processors, organized under the modality of the Participatory Organic Quality Assurance System, due to its growth and social relevance for targeting actions and public policies with the consequent strengthening of agriculture with an agroecological basis. Objective: Describe the profile of organic food processors in Rio de Janeiro state and identify the main challenges in the production and commercialization schemes. Method: This is an exploratory and descriptive study with transversal design developed by documental research of different documents: handling plans, good practices manual, minutes of the Participatory Organic Quality Assurance System, certificates issued by the Association of Biological Farmers of the State of Rio de Janeiro, and other updated documents of the Participative Organism of Organic Conformity Assessment related to the accredited producers. Results: Sixty per cent of the organic processors in the Rio de Janeiro state were linked to the Participatory Organic Quality Assurance System. The processing unit mostly used is the one attached to their homes. Most of them are farmers or family micro-entrepreneurs that have assistance of family members in the production process and the main activity carried out is the production of canned foods, jams, sauces, and homemade desserts. Less than 70% of the producers had an operation permit and sanitary license, 97% had an Organic Handling Plan; 79% had a Good Practices Manual and 78% had a Traceability Plan. Among the main difficulties, there were: raw resource acquisition, sanitary rules adequacy and logistics in supplies. Conclusions: The study demonstrated the potentiality of organic products processing for the local social and economic development, and the need of greater inducements to make an inclusive production of small enterprises feasible.

The Current Status of HIV Serologic Testing in Korean Clinical Laboratories during the Year 2007 / 대한수혈학회지

BACKGROUND: HIV serologic testing is essential for blood donor screening, and the test results should be accurate. It is important that clinical laboratories perform quality control, quality management and standardization for obtaining accurate laboratory results. The Korean National Institute of Health, the Division of AIDS and the Center for Immunology and Pathology have all performed annual external quality surveillance assessment (EQS, EQA) with using a 5 sera panel for all the Korean HIV testing laboratories that have collaborated with the Quality Assurance Committee of the Korean Society of Laboratory Medicine since 2005. The results of HIV testing in the clinical laboratories during the year 2007 were analyzed. METHODS: The results for the clinical laboratories that participated in the HIV EQAS during 2007 were collected and analyzed. The HIV test results and questionnaire data were sent to the web site "http://hivqa.nih.go.kr". Three hundred thirty two results from 303 institutions in 2007 were analyzed. RESULTS: The most widely used HIV testing method was an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay, such as the Abbott AxSym and the Architect system or the Roche Elecsys. About 5% of erroneous results were reported among 332 results. The causes of error were mostly clerical errors and specimen errors. CONCLUSION: The current status for HIV testing in Korean clinical laboratories was that fully automated immunoassay analyzers were used along with manual POCT tests.

Operational Experience of a Quality Assurance System for HPV DNA Chip Tests / 임상검사와정도관리

BACKGROUND: A new HPV DNA chip test for the infection of 22 HPV genotypes was recently developed in Korea. This test using PCR and hybridization is inherently vulnerable to contamination, and to subjective qualitative test judgment. Hence, it warrants rigorous quality assurance measures. The authors would like to share operational experiences of the guidelines developed at Catholic University Holy Family Hospital. METHODS: Our quality assurance system of HPV DNA chip test comprised external quality controls, inter-laboratory proficiency tests, and internal quality controls. For the external quality controls, we analyzed the results of four years of participation in the quality assurance program by the Korean Laboratory Medicine Quality Assurance Association. The inter-laboratory proficiency tests with BioMedLab were done by single blind tests using patients' samples showing negative, single and multiple infections. The internal quality control dealt with methods to prevent contamination, and with reproduction tests. RESULTS: The results from the external quality control revealed consistency with HPV-16 in 7 trials during 4 years. The inter-laboratory proficiency tests showed a 82% consistency rate, 10 cases of inconsistency showing positive or negative mismatches, and 8 cases of genotypic mismatches. The 10 mismatches were due to the weak laser power of the scanner used in BioMedLab. The genotypic contamination rate found in the internal quality control was 3.3%, and the contamination by HPV-35 with low incidence rate was often observed. The contamination was not easily eliminated by re-tests from hybridization, but 80% of it was removed when re-tested with the remaining samples. The fluorescence intensity was not reproducible nor provide quantitative or semi-quantitative information. CONCLUSIONS: For quality assurance regarding HPV DNA chip tests, we suggest the following be implemented: technical quality control to rule out the false-negative and false-positive during PCR and hybridization; scanner quality control to prevent reading errors; and inter-laboratory proficiency tests.
