Development of criteria to optimize manual smear review of automated complete blood counts using a machine learning model

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Manual blood smear review (MSR) to complement automated CBC results is a labor‐intensive process. Efforts have been made to use criteria based on automated hematology analyzer data to identify samples warranting MSR. These efforts have coincided with the emergence of modern data science and machine learning. Objective In this study,

Exploring low haemoglobin density as a no‐added‐cost screening marker to assess iron deficiency

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID), with or without anaemia, affects over 1 billion people globally. Early detection is essential, but current diagnostic tools may be costly, logistically complex and not widely accessible. This study evaluates low haemoglobin density percentage (LHD%), derived from mean corpuscular haemoglobin ...
