This short reply contests two assumptions made by the authors of Mayrhuber et al's. "With fever it's the real flu I would say." The first is that there is influenza can be reliably defined by a medical case definition. The second is that this small qualitative study can be generalisable. However, it does underline the important point that technical diagnostic terms may be used on different registers by a variety of actors in the medical setting.

Molecular diagnostics for influenza and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have become commonplace, and various tests and systems have been cleared by the FDA for use in the United States. We performed a retrospective study to compare the Cepheid Xpress Flu/RSV assay with the Xpert Flu/RSV XC assay, using laboratory-developed tests (LDTs) as the reference method.

Introduction. Flow cytometry markers have been proposed as useful predictors for the occurrence of posttraumatic inflammatory complications. However, currently the need for a dedicated laboratory and the labour-intensive analytical procedures make these markers less suitable for clinical practice. We tested an approach to overcome these limitations. Material and Methods. Neutrophils of healthy donors were incubated with antibodies commonly used in trauma research: CD11b (MAC-1), L-selectin (CD62L), FcγRIII (CD16), and FcγRII (CD32) in active form (MoPhab A27). Flow cytometric analysis was performed both on a FACSCalibur, a standard flow cytometer, and on a Cell-Dyn Sapphire, a routine haematology analyser. Results. There was a high level of agreement between the two types of analysers, with 41% for FcγRIII, 80% for L-selectin, 98% for CD11b, and even a 100% agreement for active FcγRII. Moreover, analysis on the routine haematology analyser was possible in less than a quarter of the time in comparison to the flow cytometer. Conclusion. Analysis of neutrophil phenotype on the Cell-Dyn Sapphire leads to the same conclusion compared to a standard flow cytometer. The markedly reduced time necessary for analysis and reduced labour intensity constitutes a step forward in implementation of this type of analysis in clinical diagnostics in trauma research.

AbstractEthylene/norbornene copolymerizations were conducted with [Ph2C(Flu)(3‐RCp)]ZrCl2 [R: Me (1) or Me3Si (2)], which give alternating EN copolymers. The activity of 1 in the absence of R3Al was approximately twice that of 2 and increased further upon addition of R3Al. Et3Al increased the activity most effectively, and the $\overline {M} _{{\rm n}} $ of the produced polymer decreased from 100 000 to 25 000 g · mol−1. On the other hand, the $\overline {M} _{{\rm n}} $ value increased upon addition of iBu3Al from 100 000 to 209 000 g · mol−1 accompanied by an ≈2.5‐fold increase of activity. Consequently, 1 was found to be one of the most promising complexes for the synthesis of alternating EN copolymers, of which $\overline {M} _{{\rm n}} $ value was efficiently controlled by the kind and the amount of R3Al added.magnified image
