Abstract

According to the instruction of the CCP Central Committee and the State Council, the census group and the Guangzhou public security bureau started to check residence registrations beginning in mid-June. The work will continue until the end of the year. The census is conducted according to the regulations on residence registration of the CCP and other relevant stipulations. It aims at eliminating separated families, checking if residence registration corresponds to the actual residence and making sure that people have correctly registered their residence. It has been stipulated that the management system over residence registration must be strengthened so as to pave the way for the nationwide census to be conducted in 1982. The census group will check residences 1 by 1 and house by house. Every unit and resident should observe the regulations on residence registration. Irregularities should be reported to local residence registration organs.

Reassortment of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza as a Driver for Zoonotic Spillover, Asia.

Highly pathogenic avian influenza H5Nx viruses remain a major zoonotic threat, yet global attention has focused largely on clade 2.3.4.4b, potentially overlooking major changes within long-endemic H5N1 lineages in Asia. Recent reports from South and Southeast Asia describe the emergence of reassortant clade 2.3.2.1 viruses alongside renewed human infections after apparent prolonged epidemiologic stability. Collectively, those events suggest a regional pattern rather than isolated anomalies. In this article, we argue that reassortment, rather than point mutation alone, might be an underrecognized driver of zoonotic risk in endemic H5N1 lineages and is reshaping those lineages. We examine why such events might be underrecognized in settings with entrenched poultry influenza, identify limitations of current surveillance systems, and call for integrated, real-time approaches linking genomic detection with phenotypic assessment across animal and human health sectors to enable timely risk assessment and coordinated public health action.

Financing and health system capacity for precision medicine in Asia: a six country landscape analysis.

BACKGROUND: Precision medicine (PM) adoption is accelerating across Asia, but implementation remains uneven due to differences in financing, infrastructure, governance, and health-system readiness. OBJECTIVES: To examine how six Asian countries (Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia) adopt, finance, and integrate PM technologies, and identify common implementation patterns and challenges. METHODS: A landscape review of peer-reviewed literature, government publications, and HTA reports (2010-2026) was conducted, supplemented by stakeholder consultations. PM applications were grouped into public health screening (hereditary breast and ovarian cancer [HBOC] and familial hypercholesterolemia [FH] cascade testing), next-generation sequencing (NGS) applications (rare diseases, oncology, pharmacogenomics), and AI-enabled PM. Evidence was synthesized across access, awareness, reimbursement, and implementation. RESULTS: Public health genomic screening demonstrated the highest implementation readiness, followed by precision oncology, while rare disease diagnostics remained infrastructure-dependent and pharmacogenomics and AI-enabled PM platforms were at earlier stages. Four readiness profiles emerged: highly aligned systems; reimbursement-constrained systems with strong governance and infrastructure; systems strengthening governance, public financing and infrastructure; and strategy-led systems expanding implementation through pilot programs and referral centers. CONCLUSIONS: PM implementation across Asia remains heterogeneous. The identified readiness profiles highlight governance, financing, and infrastructure priorities for sustainable and equitable PM diffusion.

Double heterozygous germline pathogenic variants in patients referred to a tertiary cancer genetics clinic in Singapore.

BACKGROUND: The increasing use of multigene panel testing has led to a rise in the identification of double heterozygous (DH) pathogenic variants in cancer patients, although their frequency and clinical relevance remain poorly characterised, particularly in Asian populations. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of 5,178 patients referred to a tertiary cancer genetics clinic in Singapore. DH pathogenic variants were defined as the presence of two or more distinct pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variants identified by multigene panel testing. Clinical, pathological, and family history data were reviewed and analysed using appropriate non-parametric and exact statistical methods. RESULTS: Among 2,802 index patients with available genetic test results, 593 (21.2%) carried at least one pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant. DH pathogenic variants were identified in 21 individuals (0.75%), of which 9 were patients with breast cancer, 10 with non-breast malignancies, and 2 were cancer-free. The frequency of multiple primary cancers was 26.3% in DH variant carriers, 23.3% in single variant carriers, and 16.5% in those with no pathogenic variants. The median ages of first cancer diagnosis were 47, 44, and 48 years. Several DH combinations involved moderate- or low-penetrance genes, and some clinically unsuspected variants were detected only through broad multigene testing. CONCLUSION: DH pathogenic variants represent a rare subgroup that is increasingly detected through multigene panel testing. Their phenotypic expression is variable, and the influence of additional pathogenic variants remains uncertain. Our findings emphasise the need for tailored genetic evaluation and further research to guide evidence-based management for this complex patient population.
